At De La Vina Inn, we're dedicated to making your event a truly special and seamless experience. To ensure this, please familiarize yourself with our guidelines:

​

• Event Classification
  Please note that any group or gathering exceeding our standard house capacity will be considered an event and must comply with all applicable event guidelines, including the requirement for a full property buyout.

• Property Buyout & Minimum Stays
  All events require a full buyout of the De La Vina Inn property. This ensures complete privacy and exclusive use of our beautiful facilities.
  Monday–Thursday events may be accommodated on short notice with a minimum one-night full property buyout, subject to prior approval by Hearth Hospitality.
  Friday, Saturday & Sunday events require a minimum two-night buyout.

• Guest Capacity
  Our maximum capacity for all events is 50 guests.
  For events with over 25 guests, a portable restroom trailer rental is required. We'd be happy to recommend trusted vendors for this.

• Event Coordination
  For certain events, Hearth Hospitality may require an approved event or wedding coordinator to be present. This is at our discretion to ensure the smooth execution of your special day. The cost of this coordinator would be the guest's responsibility.

• Catering & Vendors
  While we pride ourselves on exceptional in-house catering, outside caterers require prior approval from Hearth Hospitality.
  All outside vendors must be approved in advance and provide proof of adequate insurance, sign a waiver, and name Hearth Hospitality & Hearth Homes LLC as additionally insured. This helps us maintain our high standards of service and safety for everyone.

• Event Timings & Noise
  To respect our neighbors and comply with local regulations, all events must conclude by 9:30 PM on weekdays and 10:00 PM on weekends. All events must also comply with the City of Santa Barbara Noise Ordinance (SBMC Chapter 9.16).

• Prohibited Items
  For the safety and cleanliness of our property, we kindly request no sparklers, confetti, or other thrown objects.

• Parking
  Please note that there is no on-site parking available during catered events. We highly encourage your guests to use ride-share services or utilize the convenient nearby public parking lots.
