Travel

For assistance booking hotels or travel-related questions, please reach out to our dedicated travel planner, Katherine, at katherine@convivatravelclub.com. She is happy to book your wedding weekend hotel reservation and assist with pre- & post-wedding travel plans, whether you’d like to explore more of the Santa Barbara area or extend your time throughout California. Hotel recommendations are below. If these are not a fit with your plans or budget, there are many more options in the Downtown Santa Barbara and East Beach areas. Airbnb is also a great option for groups and families. Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) is the closest option (10–15 minute taxi or rideshare). Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is a ~2 hour drive. From LAX, guests can reach Santa Barbara by rental car, rideshare, car service, or the Santa Barbara Airbus (sbairbus.com), a popular shuttle service that runs directly to Santa Barbara. Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) is a ~2.5 hour drive.
