FAQ

Question

What is the ceremony / reception attire?

Answer

Feel free to dress in whatever makes you feel most comfortable, whether it's semi-formal, daytime, or formal attire. Consider day dresses, florals, or midi dresses, as well as suits, blazers, and dress shirts. Keep in mind comfortable shoes for walking around Santa Barbara. For some inspiration, you can search "California Wedding Attire" on Google.

Question

Answer

July 26, 2025. We encourage our guest to RSVP as soon they receive their invitations.

Question

Question

Will there be transportation?

Answer

We are still looking into transportation options, and/or an Uber code link to get to and from the ceremony/reception/nearby hotels. Stay tuned!

Question

Will there be drinks?

Answer

Yes, State & Fig will have an Open Bar for the duration of the reception offering a selection of alcoholic & non-alcoholic drinks.

Question

What is the weather like in Santa Barbara?

Answer

California has some of the best weather in the country. Santa Barbara often feels like summer during the day and cools down quickly from the ocean breeze at night. We recommend bringing a light sweater, but are expecting warm, pleasant weather most of the day.

Question

What if I have food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Answer

We’ve coordinated with State & Fig to accommodate guests with food allergies or dietary restrictions. Please let us know in advance—ideally when you RSVP—so we can inform the venue and ensure your needs are met.
