Things to Do

The Wedding Website of Kelly Kraft and Matt Maltbie
Santa Barbara is a stunning coastal city in Central California. The Santa Ynez Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop to this Mediterranean-influenced city on the Pacific. Downtown's red-tile roofs and white stucco buildings reflect their Spanish colonial heritage, and their warm, sunny weather has earned them the name "American Riviera". From sunbathing at the beach to taking day-trips along the coast, we recommend you extend your stay and make a trip out of this weekend (if you can). Our favorite activities include wine and beer tasting in the Funk Zone, taking a ride on the Lil' Toot Water Taxi, relaxing oceanside, and indulging in the numerous delicious restaurants.

The Funk Zone

Santa Barbara, CA

Over 20 wineries populate this cute area of downtown SB. Lots of great beer and cocktails as well.

State Street

State Street, Santa Barbara, CA

More cool eateries and bars than you can count. Start at the pier/beach and eat/drink your way inland.

Ojai

Ojai

Ojai, CA 93023

Beautiful wine region overlooking gorgeous mountains. Take a quick 40 minute drive to Ojai for great views and tasting rooms. You will not be disappointed! (Fun fact: Kelly used to tell her dad Kent that she wanted to get married at the Ojai Valley Inn after they stayed there as a family. While it's $50k starting price tag may have pushed this out of our budget, her prediction of a wedding location on the central coast wasn't too far off!)

Montecito

Montecito

Montecito, CA 93108

Montecito is right next to Santa Barbara and is absolutely gorgeous. Stop by Butterfly Beach to see where Matt proposed and take a stroll through town to see how the other half lives (probably more other 10%, it's insanely ritzy and nice).

For all the days along the way
