My husband and I first visited The Moxi a few years ago for a company holiday party, and from that day on we knew that we wanted to get married there! We do not have enough amazing things to say about The Moxi staff, and Jennifer specifically, who made the entire planning and logistic process an absolute breeze and worked arm and arm with our planner to make sure that everything was exactly what we wanted! The wedding was the most beautiful thing we could have ever imagined, and Jennifer and team made that possible. If you are looking for an incredibly unique venue, beautiful, and special with the best views of Santa Barbara - look no further than The Moxi!

Amazing venue! Everyone commented on how incredible the views were. We wanted a beach wedding but all the beach spots are so crowded and very public. The fact that we had the end of the pier to ourselves was a big selling point. It felt very private despite being on a very busy pier. We had about 75 people and it was perfect, people could wander through the sea center and they even had an amazing jellyfish exhibit upstairs. The price was very resonable compared to most spots in california, we looked everywhere and I don't think you'll find a better spot for that price. Rich was great with responding to our e-mails and questions.

Working with this team has been truly extraordinary from start to finish. They supported us through all the delays and changes due to my cancer journey with such grace and understanding, never making us feel like a burden. More importantly, they helped bring every single detail I envisioned to life in the most beautiful way possible. On our wedding day, the team was such a joy to work with. They made everything flow seamlessly while ensuring we felt like truly the luckiest people celebrating with our loved ones. The number of guests who told us it was the best wedding they've ever attended speaks volumes about the incredible work they do. We feel so grateful not just for the perfect day they created, but for the care and dedication they showed us throughout this entire process. They truly turned our dreams into the most beautiful reality. Cannot recommend them highly enough!
