Here's what to expect during the wedding weekend, or what we're calling the "Wed Fest." There will be detailed schedules for you closer to the big day. We're looking forward to celebrating with you!

Friday, May 3, 2019

The Festival

10:00 am - 5:00 pm

East Beach
1118 E Cabrillo Blvd, Santa Barbara, CA 93101

Bring your beach gear and beachwear!

More details to come. We will have various workshops (how to macrame, yoga on the beach, beer infusions 101, juggling, crafting, etc.) that you can attend along with entertainment, music, drinks, and more! Come by to learn, meet some of our amazing friends and family, and hang out with us before the big day.

The Ceremony

4:00 pm - 4:30 pm

Attire is smart, boho-chic, semi-casual, semi-formal, beachwear. In case you don't know what that means, here are some recommendations from our Pinterest Board: https://pin.it/asjjc744q7am5n

For parking: There is free street parking within a few blocks, metered parking is available in the East Beach lot, and valet is available at the Hyatt Centric at $10 for the day and $32 for overnight. Uber, Lyft, and walking are all great possibilities as well! We will be getting married in the sand so come prepared to ditch your shoes at our shoe valet. There will be some shade available and a few dozen parasols but it's always a good idea to bring your own shade, fans, and sunscreen if it's going to be a sunny day.

The Beach Party

4:30 pm - 6:00 pm

After the ceremony, we will have drinks and dinner on the beach. We will have a few formal tables and chairs for those who need them and then beach chairs and gear for others to mingle, dance, and have fun!

The Reception

Sat, May 4, 2019, 6:00 pm - Sun, May 5, 2019, 12:00 am

This is where the toasts, dancing, and cake happens! From the beach party, we will walk across the street to the Vista Mar Ballroom at the Hyatt to continue the fun. There will be flowing champagne for the first hour, followed by an open bar, charcuterie, cheese, an epic cake, and dancing all night!

The Brunch

11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Casual

El Paseo is a historic and beautiful Santa Barbara favorite. Tucked away in an adobe plaza off State street, this place is known for its amazing brunches. For $27 they offer an all-you-can-eat buffet spread (complete with a chocolate fountain!). $10 more will get you bottomless margaritas, champagne/mimosas, and sangria. We have some space reserved starting at 11:00 am and welcome anyone that would like to join us for a post-Wed Fest recuperation meal. Let us know if you can make it!
