Travel Note
To get to Santa Barbara from outside California, the most convenient option is to fly into Santa Barbara Municipal Airport (SBA), which offers direct flights from major hubs like Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Denver (DEN), Phoenix (PHX), Seattle (SEA), Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW), and more. If no direct flights are available from your departure city, you can fly into Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) or San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and take a connecting flight to SBA. Alternatively, if you land at LAX, you can reach Santa Barbara by renting a car for a scenic 2-hour drive up the Pacific Coast Highway (US-101), taking an Amtrak train from Union Station in downtown LA, or using the Santa Barbara Airbus, which provides shuttle service between LAX and Santa Barbara multiple times a day. If traveling from international destinations, flying into LAX and transferring to a domestic flight or ground transportation is usually the most efficient route. For those wanting an epic road trip, you can also fly into San Francisco (SFO) or San Jose (SJC) and drive down the coast via Big Sur, taking in breathtaking ocean views along Highway 1 before arriving in Santa Barbara. However you get here, it’ll be worth the trip!

Travel Note
We totally understand that some of you might be turning this weekend into a fun family getaway! While the wedding itself will be an adults-only celebration (with the exception of our beloved nieces and nephews), the rest of the weekend is open for all ages. To help you make the most of your time, we've gathered a few trusted babysitting services you can check out if you’d like a little grown-up time during the wedding—or at any point throughout the weekend. Some of these sitters even offer fun activities to keep the little ones entertained while you're out and about!
