About Vega Vineyard & Farm


Vega Vineyard & Farm not only makes it's own wine but also hosts a beautiful garden from which their Chef curates their menu; A true farm-to-table experience. Additionally, the farm is home to a menagerie of farm animals such goats, chicken & pigs which guests can feed.

The ceremony will take place within the beautiful vineyard & the reception will follow at a nearby, paved courtyard. All areas are level & easy to walk on. There will be bathroom container units on-site (not porta-potties).

General

Please make use of the "More" button above. Most, if not all, questions should be addressed in the options above.

Dress code for our special day will be semi-formal. We expect the day of the wedding to be warm, so we recommend wearing something classy, yet breathable.

Santa Ynez Valley has increasingly become a destination wedding venue & the day falls in the peak of wedding season - hotels and Airbnbs will fill up fast. We highly encourage those that plan on attending to book their stay ASAP. In the above menu under "Accommodations", we have linked Hotel and Airbnb searches with the date set for the weekend of our wedding.

Our wedding day falls on the same weekend as Fiesta in Santa Barbara, so those traveling northbound may hit increased traffic and congestion on the 101. Consider coming a day or two early to be safe! We have put together a list of things to do in the Valley and Santa Barbara if you are looking to turn this into a weekend trip.
