SANTA BARBARA COURTHOUSE ELOPEMENT

ABOUT

This building still functions as a working courthouse and welcomes visitors to view its impressive details. Among them are murals, tile work, beamed ceilings, decorative painting, ornate woodwork, and wrought iron fixtures. With manicured sunken gardens and a clock tower offering breathtaking views of the city, ocean, and mountains, it’s no wonder a Santa Barbara Courthouse elopement is so popular.

All this provides stunning backdrops for wedding photography. This completely unique venue is perfect for elopement style weddings. There are several ceremony sites that are non fee based and can accommodate groups of up to 15 people.
