Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) is the closest; it’s about a 45-minute drive to Santa Ynez. SBA offers direct flights to 12 cities (including Dallas and Phoenix). You can either rent a car or take an Uber to/from the airport. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is the next closest and is about 2.5 hours away from the Santa Ynez Valley. If you choose to fly through LAX, we recommend leaving extra time for car rentals! For additional travel information and suggestions, please refer to the "Travel" tab.
We’re so excited to celebrate with our friends and family! Due to limited space, we’re only able to accommodate the guests listed on your formal invitation.
We are respectfully requesting only our nieces and nephews to join us on our special day.
Rehearsal Dinner (Summer Chic): Inspired by an elegant Italian summer evening al fresco. Long, flowy dresses for women; linen or lightweight suits for men. No ties needed. Welcome Party (Cocktail Attire): The event will be outdoors, so we suggest lightweight fabrics for a California summer evening. Think dresses or dressy separates for women; slacks and a button-down or sport coat for men. No ties needed. Ceremony & Reception (Black Tie): For men, a tuxedo or a formal dark suit with a tie or bowtie. For women, a mid- to floor-length dress. Our wedding will be an outdoor affair. Be prepared for warm weather during the day and cool weather in the evening. Please bring a wrap or jacket and we encourage you to wear block heels or wedges over stilettos.
Yes, all our events (rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony, and reception) will be outside. We are excited to enjoy the beautiful California weather! For the ladies, we recommend wearing shoes that are comfortable and easy to walk in (think flats, wedges, or block heels) so you can enjoy the day without worrying about the terrain! We also encourage you to bring a wrap or jacket as the temperature drops in the evening.
In early August, Santa Ynez enjoys warm, sunny days with average highs around 85°F and cool evenings in the mid-50s. Rain is rare and humidity is low :)
We will provide shuttles to and from wedding festivities from Hotel Corque and The Landsby. Please refer to our "Schedule" tab for additional details for each event. Please note that Uber and other ride-sharing services may be limited in the Santa Ynez area, so we’ve arranged transportation to ensure everyone can join the celebrations with ease.
We kindly ask that there are no phones or cameras during our wedding ceremony.
