Destination weddings in Santa Barbara offer so many options for wedding locations.  For those who want the view of the ocean without the hassle of securing park/beach permits to be on the beach itself,  the Chase Palm Plaza offers a gorgeous view of the beach right across the street, the Santa Barbara Riviera and mountains and the elegance of an upscale park with old-fashioned romantic carousel. 

This couple chose to focus on the fun and the setting and featured food stations, including many vegan options for their menu.

Ventura Party Rentals provided the rentals and Foto Cielo captured the story on film and gracing the pages of our BLOG here. Read more »
