Buellton is a ~40 minute drive from the Santa Barbara airport (SBA) and a ~2 hour 40 minute drive from LAX.

If you fly into LAX, you'll need to rent a car or catch a ride up from LA with friends, but if you fly into SBA and are staying in a property near the venue, you could get away with an Uber/Lyft from the airport. There are direct flights into SBA from SF/Oakland, Seattle, Salt Lake City, and Denver, but it's still worth looking into a connecting option from the east coast!

The welcome party and wedding are both in Buellton, but Santa Ynez, Solvang, Los Olivos, and Los Alamos are all within 15 minutes of each other and are good areas to explore for lodging. We're sharing some ideas below, but there are also tons of Airbnbs throughout the valley if you aren't seeing availability at your choice hotels!

Cade, Mackenzie, our families, and a number of friends will be staying at Flying Flags RV Resort + Campground, which is a 3 minute drive from our venue and also where we will host everyone on Friday. It's not just an RV park! There are a bunch of different lodging options here (cottages, airstreams, glamping).

Sideways Inn is Flying Flags' sister property. It's a small, no frills motel a few minutes walk away from where we will be staying + hosting everyone for the welcome party.

Skyview is a super cool, mid-century modern motel set up on a hill just outside Los Alamos. It's a little further from the venue, but still only a ~15 minute drive. This was our favorite spot when we went up to scope out places for everyone to stay!

The Santa Ynez Valley Marriott is a good option if you are looking for something more standard and prioritizing convenience. It's also a 3 minute drive from our venue.

Also about a ~15 minute drive from the venue, Fess Parker Inn is an upscale spot right in downtown Los Olivos, a great option if you want to visit tasting rooms while you're in town.

Other options to check out: Hotel Ynez, Alamo Motel, The Landsby, and Ballard Inn.
