SANTA MONICA
For the day of the wedding itself, we recommend staying around Santa Monica and the Westside area. There’s plenty to do, see and explore!
Montana Avenue
Browse curated Boutiques, grab lunch at R + D kitchen (maybe Arnold or Tom Hanks will grab some too!) and walk by the beloved AERO theater, P. T. Andersons (and our!) favorite cinema in LA.
Pay attention to the marquise and see who’s there in person that week.
