FAQs

Question

What is the wedding attire?

Answer

Black Tie (We recommend block heels for women and cowboy boots for men- we will be on a ranch)

Question

How do I get to the reception/ceremony on Saturday?

Answer

We are taking a TRAIN! Please arrive at the train station by 3:15 pm sharp. We are departing at 3:20 pm. This is the only form of transportation to the wedding! The train station is a 2 minute walk from the Hotel Californian and the Riviera Beach House!

Question

Will the wedding take place indoors or outside?

Answer

The ceremony and cocktail will take place outside. Dinner and dancing will be in an enclosed tent. In September, Santa Barbara weather averages from 79 to 59 degrees, so please be mindful of this. If you tend to get cold easily, we recommend bringing a wrap!

Question

Where should I stay in Santa Barbara?

Answer

We have reserved a room block at the Riviera Beach House! This hotel is walkable to the beach, restaurants, and all wedding events throughout the weekend. We encourage everyone to stay there.

Question

What airport should I fly into?

Answer

We recommend flying into SBA (Santa Barbara Airport). It is 14-15 minutes away from the hotels.

Question

Do you recommend getting a rental car for the weekend?

Answer

No, we suggest taking an uber/lyft from the airport as all transportation for the wedding weekend will be provided for guests. Everything else is walkable (the beach, restaurants, etc.).

Question
