Kylie and Scott's Santa Barbara Historical Museum Wedding Celebration

With a setting that nods to the historic and romantic old Spanish days of Santa Barbara, yet is tucked away in a very secluded (yet convenient) spot of downtown Santa Barbara, The Santa Barbara Historic Museum offers several distinct areas for hosting all different types of events. We especially love producing weddings there because each location feels distinct from the other and clients love saying their vows in the more intimate ceremony area and then adjourning to the more dramatic courtyard with beautiful fountain for a celebration under the starry Santa Barbara night sky (by the way, check out what this wedding couple did with the fountain for this event- truly fun, fresh, and eye-catching).

While a picture is worth a thousand words and you can enjoy all the photos below and special design touches, our specialty focus is the cuisine and service to our clients and guests. We love the menu Kylie and Scott chose which gave tribute to the Spanish flavor of Santa Barbara and their location, including sumptuous Grilled Marinated Flank Steak and Chili-Lime-Marinated Shrimp and more (you can read on below, but warning: reading the menu may cause deep, uncontrollable cravings).
