Highly Recommended

Jessica and the whole Kimpton Canary team were great. From the delicious food during our cocktail hour and dinner (especially the pork belly deviled eggs) to the wedding day weather logistics flexibility, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was worth every penny. Access to the hotel’s inventory of linens, candles, easels, cake stands, and other items really helped streamline our wedding prep. Jessica could not have been more helpful and responsive throughout the whole process.

Kimpton Canary Wedding Team

We could not have asked for a more professional Team to coordinate the wedding. The team leaders Jessica Reardon, Director of Catering and Natasha Brooks, Sales Manager provided excellent and exceptional support throughout the process. They went out of their way to make us feel at ease while assuring us that everything was going to be wonderful.. Which it was.. Jessica was responsive to our questions immediately and guided us with excellent suggestions. Natasha always kept us up to date on our room blocks and also provided great suggestions. . They both made the wedding experience easy and a memorable one. We could not thank them enough.

Kimpton Canary was the best!

We could not have asked for a better venue than the Kimpton Canary to host our reception! Jessica was so easy to work with, answered every question/doubt quickly and was really so flexible with our wedding package. She made everything easy. The venue itself is also so beautiful, overlooking all of Santa Barbara and we have wonderful memories and pictures to look back at. Thank you for everything Kimpton! We had a blast!

The Canary Hotel rooftop is one of my absolute favorite venues in all of Santa Barbara! It's the only venue with a sweeping 360 degree view of our beautiful Riviera town and everything from the staff, to the food, to the gorgeous Spanish style architecture is absolutely perfect! I've shot countless weddings there and every single time, I am left with a feeling of complete gratitude for the beauty around me!

They provide excellent service for not only their hotel guests but especially for the weddings. Some of the best experiences we've had have been working with the pros at the Canary.
