Anne Bernstein & Matt Costello
fter dating for four years, Matt Costello proposed to Anne Bernstein during a ski trip to Colorado. On
the top of Vail Mountain, the groom-to-be proposed with an engagement ring from Montecito jeweler,
Bryant & Sons.
The bride, who was raised in Montecito, met her groom, who moved from San Diego to attend UCSB, while
playing coed soccer together for Santa Barbara Parks and Recreation’s summer league. They tied the knot on July 31,
2010, at the Coral Casino, on La Pacifica Terrace. Their seven nieces and nephews were included in the ceremony,
which was adorned with summery white roses and blue hydrangea, designed by Jerry Peddicord of SR Hogue &
Co. Their 200 guests were treated to a wedding cake baked by Christine Dahl, and were sent home with chocolate
confections by Jessica Foster.
After the ceremony, the bride changed out of her Carolina Herrera wedding
gown to dance the night away in a shorter number. The couple, who recently
moved from Santa Barbara to Durham, North Carolina, this past summer to
attend Duke University, spent their two-and-a-half-week honeymoon exploring
Bali and Thailand.
They still play on the same coed soccer team.
