Santa Barbara & the Central Coast, California

Music & Entertainment

In Santa Barbara & the Central Coast: Five businesses, four of them in one city. That is an honest picture of a thin and highly concentrated market rather than a gap in the research, and it has a practical consequence: if you are marrying at the north end of the corridor or inland, the act you want is probably traveling to you, and travel and possibly lodging belong in the quote from the first conversation. Ask about both before you fall for anyone. Expect $1,400 to $6,500. Outdoor and rural sites raise the two usual questions, power and a hard end time for amplified sound, so get the curfew from the venue in writing, in hours, and have the band or DJ scout the site rather than describe it. A generator is a rental and a noise source of its own.
