This hotel is where we recommend you stay. This is where our reception will be, and it is right across the street from the beach where we'll have the ceremony and Wed Fest We have a block of rooms reserved here at a discounted rate. We can get more rooms when our block fills up, so let us know if you have any issues.

Hotel
This hotel does not do room blocks, but is still a great option since it is very close to the Wed Fest. Rooms will probably become available here in early 2019.
Hotel
Also known as The Fess Parker, this is one of the fanciest hotels in the area. This is still walking distance to the beach where we'll have the Wed Fest and ceremony, and next door to the Hyatt where the reception will be. We recommend staying at the Hyatt Centric, but if you want to splurge then the Fess Parker is another great option.
House Or Rental
Airbnb can be a great option depending on availability. If you haven't tried it before, use the link here to get $40 off your first stay. VRBO is another great site to find houses to rent in the area.
Flight
SBA is the closest airport to the wedding. There are few direct flights there and it will be a little more expensive. But if you're not looking to rent a car, take a shuttle, or deal with LA traffic, this might be your best option.
Flight
LAX is a big airport with some cheaper flights. It's about a 2-hour drive from Santa Barbara when there isn't traffic. However, if your flight gets in around rush hour you might want to wait until the traffic dies down until you make the drive. Part of this drive is along the coast, so once you get past the traffic it is a beautiful drive.
Travel Note
If you do fly to LAX and don't want to rent a car, the airbus is a popular option to get you up to Santa Barbara. We've generally found that once you factor in the roundtrip transportation from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara, it's about the same price to fly into SBA directly, so keep that in mind.
