Travel

The Wedding Website of RACHEL FROMMER and MATT LOPEZ
We recommend booking your stay in Santa Barbara or Montecito, as these areas offer the best balance of beautiful scenery, walkability, and easy access to wedding events. Santa Barbara is known for its relaxed coastal vibe, Spanish-style architecture, and incredible food scene. Staying near Downtown / Funk Zone, East Beach, or Montecito will put you close to restaurants, beaches, wineries, and major roads—making it easy to get around, whether you’re renting a car or using rideshare services (plentiful!) We have a formal hotel block (as listed below), but we also want guests to choose accommodations that best fit their budget, style, and length of stay. Santa Barbara offers a wide range of options, including: *Larger beachfront and resort-style hotels *Boutique inns and Spanish-style hotels *Airbnbs and VRBOs (especially great for families or groups)

Flight

Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) OR Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)

Santa Barbara Airport is an absolute gem and so easy to navigate! From the plane to your uber is a 5 minute walk. Within 15 minutes you're in downtown SB or the Mar Monte hotel. Our recommendation: if you can, save yourself from the LA traffic and fly directly into SB! If not, LAX is approximately a 2-2.5 hour drive to Santa Barbara depending on traffic. A great backup option for direct flights from just about anywhere-- and you'll have some gorgeous coastal views on the second half of the drive to get into the Cali spirit!
