Hotel
Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort
We will be arranging a room block at the Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort, where our ceremony and reception are taking place. We’re still finalizing the details, and will update this page as soon as we have them. We're also considering adding an additional room block at a nearby hotel to give guests more options—more info to come soon!
Flight
Santa Barbara Airport
The closest airport is Santa Barbara Airport (SBA), located about 12 miles from the Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort. It’s a small, easy-to-navigate airport with direct flights from several major cities. From there, it’s about a 15–20 minute drive or ride share to the venue.
Flight
LAX Airport
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is another option, located about 94 miles from the venue. While it's a larger and busier airport, it often has more flight availability and potentially lower fares. If you're flying into LAX, plan for a drive of 1.5–3 hours depending on traffic. You can also reach Santa Barbara from LAX by utilizing the Santa Barbara Airbus shuttle. This service has 16 daily departures and picks up from all terminals at LAX. The travel time is roughly 2 to 2½ hours, depending on traffic. The one-way fare is around $60 prepaid (or $69 regular). Tickets drop to $50 (prepaid) for groups of 3+ :)
Flight
Burbank Airport
Burbank Airport (BUR) is a smaller airport located about 85 miles from Santa Barbara. It’s a great alternative to LAX with a more relaxed experience and fewer crowds.
Train
Amtrak (Burbank to Santa Barbara)
If you’d like a scenic ride, consider taking the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner from Burbank Airport–South (right next to the terminal) up to Santa Barbara. The journey covers about 80 miles and takes approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes, with several direct trains running each day and fares starting around $29–35 one‑way.
