Private Residence

On a late summer night in southern California, Heather and Ryan celebrated their wedding on the gorgeous acre-wide estate belonging to Heather’s parents. Expert event planner, designer and producer Kristin Banta was on hand to provide the event with its bold yet elegant look, and its relaxed and spontaneous spirit. The couple and their 150 guests cooled off during the reception with cocktail popsicles and danced late into the night on a custom-made dance floor that matched the rest of the event’s aesthetic. No detail was overlooked at this magnificent affair!
