We had our wedding scheduled for October but had to recently cancel due to COVID. Throughout the entire process, John and the staff at the Santa Ynez could not have been more helpful and flexible with adapting to the unexpected changes and closures. The venue is absolutely beautiful and affordable. We had to make the difficult decision to officially cancel, and John called me personally. He is the best person to work with, offered us a full refund, and made an emotional and difficult decision easier for us. My husband and I plan on returning to the Santa Ynez Inn for our anniversary and for many more trips in the future.

My husband and I were looking for a beautiful, lowkey spot for our small ceremony in January and found exactly what we were looking for in the coach house at the Santa Ynez inn! John on staff was extremely helpful and communicative, and our vendors had no problems getting on site to set up florals. My bridesmaids and I all got ready in one of the suites at the Inn and it was MAGICAL and beautiful, and the library downstairs was the perfect spot for the groom and groomsmen to get dressed and toast whiskey in. We could not have asked for a better venue for our ceremony!

I got married at the Inn on October 1st, and it could not have gone better. I was so happy with the service, the attention and the communication by the Assistant GM Kristopher Salloway, he made sure to go over every detail with me from start to finish! His attention to detail, exceeded our expectations. My husband and I stayed at their sister property, The Landsby for a few nights before staying at The Inn, and Kristopher made it a point to come by to welcome us. This venue is absolutely stunning. We'll absolutely be back to visit Kristopher and The Santa Ynez Inn. I would give 10 stars if I could.

My husband and I chose to have our wedding at this hotel. We couldn't have chosen a better venue. It was so lovely and surpassed my expectations! Planning a wedding at this venue was as stress free as it could have been. Kristopher, the wedding coordinator from the Inn, was available to help us at every step of the way in the planning process and the day-of event execution. He helped us write out a timeline, create a floor plan, arrange a tasting of the menu, and was very accommodating in providing ice tea and water for guests at the ceremony, and a few decorative tables as well. He also threw in extra roasted vegetable dishes at the reception buffet that we weren't expecting! The Inn provided tables, linens, dinnerware, chairs, a full bar, a full buffet and servers. I loved that I didn't have to worry about clean up or coordinating with a million vendors. The atmosphere at the Inn made the wedding so lovely. The vintage architecture and all of the greenery and flowers gave us ... Read moresome amazing photos. We held the reception in the coach house, which has beautiful wood floors, huge romantic barn doors, bar area, and big chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. It was perfect for an elegant, intimate, candlelit reception. As far as staying at the Inn, that was a great experience as well. My husband and I got the honeymoon suite, complete with jacuzzi, fireplace, and balcony. The Inn provides a continental breakfast every morning, as well as hors d'oeuvres and dessert in the evenings. I am used to the standard boring continental breakfast from chain hotels, but this was 10 times better than that. Delicious gourmet pastries, berries and fruit, artisan granola, and omelets, crepes and pancakes made to order. Also great coffee and a fancy selection of teas. We were so impressed by this hotel and couldn't be happier that we decided to have our wedding here!

VERY reasonably priced and well worth it! The event coordinator, accommodations, food and attention to details was impeccable1

The Santa Ynez Inn was the absolute perfect place for my wedding ceremony. The staff was amazing. Very helpful and friendly. The Inn was also a beautiful setting for pictures. We will be back for anniversary's to come!

The venue was beautiful. We had our ceremony in the outside area and the reception in the Coach House. The cost for the venue was more than reasonable. Catering was done by the venue and the food options were varied and everyone enjoyed the food. The event planner (Bobby Rosenstrauch) was very helpful, providing advice regarding additional vendors as well as staging and timing of the event. Bobby helped us coordinate the entire event through e-mails and phone calls as we lived over 3 hours from the venue. The wedding day went very smoothly and that was in large part to Bobby's assistance throughout the process.

Everyone was excellent And personable and accommodating

Highly recommend venue for ceremony and coach house for reception. All dinner selections were outstanding. Kristopher and his staff did a great job with attention to detail.

I had my reception here and they also referred me to other vendors for my linen and dance floor rentals, flowers, decorations, and cake. I worked with Bethany and she was great! The rental fee was much less than it would have been in Santa Barbara, and I got a lot of help with planning too! Overall, it worked out great and I would recommend it for the reception and other planning needs.
