Some wedding days stay with you long after you pack up your camera, and Reagan and Justin’s Santa Barbara wedding was one of those unforgettable celebrations. I had been looking forward to their day all season — not just because of the stunning views at their Glen Annie Golf Course Wedding, but because of who they are. Reagan is pure sunshine, full of joy and energy, and Justin absolutely adores her. His vows were some of the sweetest and most emotional I’ve heard in all my years of Santa Barbara wedding photography.

Getting Ready in Santa Barbara

The morning began in two separate Airbnbs tucked into the heart of Santa Barbara. Reagan got ready surrounded by her mom and her bridesmaids, who wore soft baby-blue dresses — the perfect complement to the soft, coastal tones that define so many beautiful Santa Barbara weddings. Justin and his groomsmen dressed in classic navy suits that matched the timeless style of the day.

First Looks & Private Vows at Glen Annie

The ceremony took place at Glen Annie Golf Course, a venue that held deep sentimental meaning for Reagan. With sweeping views of the mountains and even a glimpse of her high school, it was the perfect setting for their emotional first looks.


Reagan shared a tender first look with her dad, followed by one of the most touching moments of the entire Santa Barbara wedding day — a first look/no-look with Justin. Standing back-to-back, they shared private vows filled with prayer, happy tears, and memories of the night they first met line dancing. Justin joked that his only regret was waiting until the end of the night to ask her to dance — a moment that ultimately changed both of their lives.

A Glen Annie Golf Course Wedding Ceremony

Their ceremony took place on the lawn overlooking the rolling hills of the course, creating a dreamy backdrop perfect for Santa Barbara wedding photography. White and baby-blue florals lined the aisle, and Reagan looked absolutely breathtaking as her dad walked her toward Justin.


After joy-filled vows, they signed their marriage license and toasted to officially becoming Mr. and Mrs. Ledgerwood — surrounded by cheers from their family and friends.

Santa Barbara Wedding Reception: Dance, Pray, Love

Their reception kicked off with a joyful grand entrance and heartfelt toasts before Reagan and Justin shared their choreographed first dance — fun, romantic, and totally them.


As evening settled in, guests filled the dance floor, the cake was cut, and the celebration kept going long after the sun disappeared. The energy, the joy, and the love made their Glen Annie Golf Course wedding one I truly didn’t want to end.

When I think back on their Santa Barbara wedding day, three words come to mind: Dance, Pray, Love.


Reagan and Justin — thank you for letting me capture your iconic day. It was an honor to document a love story so full of faith, laughter, and genuine connection.
