BIT OF BLISS
Custis Ferguson & Chris Quinn Custis Ferguson has come full circle, both in life, and love. She rode with Meadow Grove Farm in Sylmar, California as a junior, and now happily works there as a trainer. And while growing up in Santa Barbara, California, she always dreamed that if she were to have a big wedding, it would be at the Four Seasons Biltmore. On her wedding day last fall, that dream also came true when she married former Santa Anita Racetrack employee Chris Quinn in front of 160 of their closest friends and family at the Four Seasons Biltmore Santa Barbara.
It actually rained on our wedding day,” Custis says. “It hadn’t rained for five months and the weekend before was in the 70’s... but rain started the night of the rehearsal dinner.
Luckily, the rain stopped right before she was set to go outside and walk down the aisle, and it made for amazing colors in the wedding pictures. Custis wasn’t thrilled with the changing weather, but everyone told her that if you have bad weather on your wedding day it means you’ll have a very good marriage! “It really was the best day of my life, I’m a very lucky girl!!” she adds. Custis wore a strapless fit to flair gown with a bow on the bust. Designed by Anne Barge and photographed by Mi Belle Photography.
