Santa Barbara Weddings

Map with directions

The Mural Room is often used for Chapel weddings.
This magnificent Spanish-Moorish "palace" was built in 1929 with
Hand-painted ceilings, wrought iron chandeliers, giant murals and imported tiles.

This circular staircase offers a beautiful view of the Sunken Gardens

Below are pictured two of eight locations that Santa Barbara County Parks deem suitable for small ceremonies of 15 or fewer participants (no fees charged).
Weddings which are primarily along the Anacapa and Figueroa Street lawn areas as noted in parentheses on the map below do not require a location permit.

We can do our photo sessions in here, however...
the locations inside the Courthouse Sunken Gardens (noted above)
are subject to prior reservation for your ceremony by permit.
You may call 805-568-2465 for reservations or visit their website.

Please read the "FAQ" page before you call to reserve your wedding date.
