"It calls itself The American Riviera®, and that's not just tourism hype. With tall palms lining the sweeping seashore, red-roofed, low-rise Mediterranean architecture and a coastal mountain range forming the city's backdrop, Santa Barbara does bear a resemblance to France's Cote d'Azur. Artists even say the light here has the same special luminous quality that attracted so many famous painters to the French Riviera. It's no wonder, then, that this is a city whose outdoors is to be celebrated." Jay Clarke, Denver Post

From charming Spanish Revival churches to sun-swept groves, rustic ranches to luxury resorts, Santa Barbara offers couples the ideal venue for wedding vows, (plus plenty of secluded spots to steal a kiss or two before!).

Celebrities past and present have chose Santa Barbara as the place to say "I do", including Sir Laurence Olivier, Gwyneth Paltrow and Mira Sorvino, to name just a few. And it's no wonder with the variety of unique wedding venue options, award winning chefs that will make your wedding banquet rival a 5-star restaurant, and vineyards that ensure that every toast is as unique as your destination wedding.  But Santa Barbara doesn't only cater to the rich and famous, with a variety of options available, even the budget conscious bride can wow her guests and stick to her wedding budget.
