Events Ordinance threatens to shut down weddings

The San Luis Obispo County supervisors is considering passing a proposal that would limit Wedding Receptions to 50 guests or less when held at an “Ag-Zoned” property. With the average Central Coast Wedding having a guest count of 125, passing of this proposal would realistically eliminate about 95% of the weddings on these properties.

Some of the most beautiful rustic properties and barns would no longer be available for our brides to have their dream weddings at. Our brides lose, the property owners lose, the wedding industry loses, the county loses millions in tourism dollars from out of town guests, and our local government loses sale tax dollars. Help us stop this devastating ordinance put together by a few wealthy landowners who had a few isolated problems with one venue.

The Vote is going out soon, so if your having a wedding in Ag land, which includes wineries, barns, or other super cool properties, make some noise at the above link. I'd say almost 30% of our couples are getting married at these locations and I know they would be crushed if their wedding plans were changed! We are fighting this 100%.
