About
Villa & Vine is a European-inspired wedding venue in Santa Barbara, California. Reminiscent of a sun-soaked villa and garden courtyard in the Riviera, embark on an extravagant escape to this luxury private event venue.
Villa & Vine is more than Farm-to-Table, we're SEED-to-Table. With an obsessive focus on using the freshest ingredients, chef and owner Petros has found the best way to do this is by growing much of his own produce on his farm in Santa Ynez, as well as importing main ingredients from his hometown in Greece (such as olive oil, honey, herbs and local cheese). Additionally, with our Petros Winery in Los Olivos, all V&V weddings get an exclusive private label wine experience, only available at V&V and other Petros properties.
All Villa & Vine rentals include the following:
- Natural wood vineyard chairs
- Wooden farm tables
- Place Settings with ivory napkins
- Dance floor
- Existing bistro lights and chandeliers
Focus on the fun! At Villa & Vine, we only host one event a day, with events and dancing able to go until midnight. Centrally located downtown across from the historic Arlington Theater, you and your guests will enjoy views of Spanish tile roofs, palm trees and the sun-soaked hills of Santa Barbara, that is this American Riviera.

Wow! Just Wow ★★★★★ The wedding of our dreams
★★★★★ The wedding of our dreams
My husband and I got married at Villa & Vine just last week and I'm still floating.
The owner walked us through everything personally and you could feel how much love and pride goes into this place.
That care set the tone for the entire experience.
The ambiance is breathtaking with lush greenery, warm string lights, and that gorgeous Santa Barbara sky.
Several guests told us it was the most stunning wedding they'd ever attended.
The luxury is unreal but the value surprised us most.
We looked at a lot of venues in Santa Barbara and nothing came close.
The staff were warm, professional, and the service on the day was flawless.
Everything ran like clockwork and I never once had to worry.
The food was incredible and our guests are still raving about it.
The music kept the dance floor packed all night.
Our photographer captured the most beautiful moments and I cried when I saw the previews.

The perfect venue for our intimate October wedding!
We had our wedding at Villa & Vine in October and I couldn't recommend it enough! Everything ran so smoothly, especially the transition from ceremony to cocktail to reception. The team did an incredible job doing the flip of the courtyard and making my pinterest inspo come to life :)
The wait staff was so attentive and always made sure we were taken care of & had what we needed. The food was incredible and we received so many compliments from guests on how much they loved everything, from the food to the venue space. Thank you to the entire V&V staff on making it such a memorable evening.
We are so happy with how everything turned out -- I couldn't have pictured a more perfect venue for our intimate wedding celebration.

The Wedding of Our Dreams – Beyond Grateful!
We honestly don’t have enough words to express how incredible our experience was at Villa + Vine! From the moment we first visited, we knew it was special—but they truly exceeded every expectation and gave us a wedding day more magical than we ever imagined.
The staff was nothing short of amazing—professional, warm, organized, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. They anticipated our needs before we even thought of them and made the entire planning process feel effortless and fun. On the day of the wedding, everything ran flawlessly, and we were able to completely relax and soak in every moment.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning— the outdoor courtyard, cozy fireplace, magical string lights and more. So many of our guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding (and fun!) they’ve ever attended, and we couldn’t agree more 😊
If you’re looking for a venue that will go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable, this is it. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and are endlessly thankful to the entire team at Villa + Vine for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever.

A Quintessential 805 Wedding
Perfect venue for a small Santa Barbara wedding in April! My husband and I met in Santa Barbara, so when we got engaged this was our ideal city to tie the knot. We wanted something intimate for our relatively small ceremony and reception (75 guests), ideally a 2-venue-in-one situation so we didn’t have to worry about people-moving, and, of course, something quintessentially 805—all without breaking the bank. Great news, Villa & Vine is all of these things and more. We did the ceremony and reception in their courtyard, and Chrissy’s team has it down to a science flipping the space from serene ceremony, to golden-hour twinkly dinner, to coffee and dessert lounge areaAH-mazing! Our day-of venue coordinator, Hazel, was so lovely and made sure we were fed, comfortable, etc., we really appreciated her big smile, patience, and efficiency! Food and guest experience was also so important to us, and V&V serves a fantastic menu; for weeks after, our guests literally raved to us about how delicious the food was, a recurring comment was regret of not getting second or third helpings.

Well-oiled, organized wedding venue
I had my wedding here back in June 2023. This venue does a great job, the food is delicious, and costs are on par with what you'll pay at any other venue - if not cheaper. Their team is very organized, and they put on events here most weekends, so they know the drill. It's also naturally beautiful, which can save costs on decor and florals. The decision to have our reception here was an easy one.

Such a Fun Time, Beautiful Venue and Attentive Service
It’s becoming increasingly rare to find spaces in California that feel historic the way this venue does. I thought it was great when I first visited but was completely blown away by how they transformed the space, and how considerate and on-it the service was. The team is so chill to work with and they accommodated our entire group of over 200 people. There were so many logistics we had to figure out because of our large party, and Chrissy, Allison, Hazel and Robyn went out of their way to solve them.
If you can, absolutely go to the tasting for the event. I was expecting some solid wine options, but all of what we tasted was fantastic, competitive with some of the best wineries I’ve gone to.
All in all it was an amazing night, and part of the best weekend of my life. If I had to do another event in Santa Barbara this is the first place I’d go to.

Intimate and lovely!
I was the MOH for my friend who had her reception here in November 2022. The venue is lovely and well-appointed, and the service was OUTSTANDING. The food was delicious, there was never a dirty plate to be seen, drinks were always full, and the staff was SO attentive and friendly! The bride told me that the venue had been very attentive and accommodating throughout her planning process as well. Highly recommend this venue for a smaller, intimate wedding.
