“Los Angeles has so many beautiful event venues, it can be hard to decide. Especially if you and your partner have very different tastes in everything. But I kept seeing the Oviatt pop up in my searches and decided to schedule a tour.
We both fell in love as soon as we got out of the elevator. The Oviatt is a lovingly maintained historic building in DTLA. Built as a department store in the 1920s for the city's rich and famous, its art deco details give so much character to the venue that flowers and decorations are almost like gilding a lily. The views from the balconies and upper deck make you feel like you're standing on a little platform from the past among current day LA. The absolute best part, however, was the team. From Gabe who gave us our tour and communicated with us about contracts, to the event team (Lindsey, Cami, and Simone) I couldn't have asked for a more professional and knowledgeable team. They were flexible, had suggestions when I was indecisive, and executed everything beautifully. We changed our package from the basic to the Art Deco Dream, which provided us with vendors that picked up baton for the next steps of our event (DJ, planner, bar/bartenders, caterer). Every single one of our guests was impressed with the the location, the vendors and how seamlessly everything worked.
I hope you chose the Oviatt if you want a venue unique to Los Angeles that will exceed your expectations.”
