The Ceremony
*New Ceremony Time: 5:00PM
*New Location: The East Beach West (EBW)
Due to an unforeseen City of Santa Barbara event on the East Beach, the ceremony will be moved to East Beach West(EBW) and begin at 5:00 p.m. The new wedding location is at the far end of the EBW parking lot (see map below). You can get your pass upon arrival and use it here too.
At the conclusion of the ceremony, we will exit the EBW parking lot and drive to the parking lot on the opposite side of the Cabrillo Pavilion Arts Center. It’s called the East Parking lot. The entire East parking lot is reserved for our wedding party. You may park there once you have purchased a parking pass. It will not be open to the public and will be attended. If we run out of spaces in the East lot, we will also reserve parts of the EBW parking lot, closest to the venue for your convenience.
Also Please Note:
As the wedding is taking place on the beach and in the sand, feel free to be in your bare feet, bring extra sandals or water shoes, wear heel guards or whatever makes you comfortable.
There will be some seating. We plan to make it available first to our most senior family members, our most senior guests and to anyone physically challenged. Please seat yourself accordingly. Those of you standing…just know you’re all our Best Men, Maids and Matrons of Honor!
