“From the moment we started planning with Kelly and Elizabeth at Huntington Harbour Yacht Club, we knew we were in great hands. They took our scattered notes and ideas and turned everything into a flawless event, we really didn't even need to hire a separate planner. The nautical setting was gorgeous and everything felt clean and organized from start to finish. What really stood out was how they thought ahead—the staff kept drinks flowing, charged phones, tracked belongings, and even surprised us with something thoughtful right when we needed it. Kelly and Elizabeth also made sure our parents felt taken care of all night long. We honestly can't say enough about how smoothly the day ran thanks to their hard work and attention to detail.”

“We recently had our wedding at Recreation Park 18 (Big Rec), and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. From the very first time we toured the venue, I loved it immediately. The layout is perfect — having the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one location made the entire day feel seamless and easy for both us and our guests. Our dogs were able to be a part of the ceremony and that was SO FUN! We also had access to the ceremony space throughout the night, which allowed us to set up lawn games and gave everyone extra space to relax and enjoy themselves. The bridal suite was cute, clean, spacious, and the perfect place to get ready. We opted to have champagne and snack trays in the room, and it was set up beautifully when we arrived. Honestly, it was the little details throughout the entire process that made such a difference. The food was absolutely incredible. Almost every guest we’ve spoken to since the wedding has mentioned how delicious everything was. The staff was equally amazing. Myra and the entire event team were so kind, attentive, and organized. They moved with such a sense of purpose all day, and I always felt like we were in good hands. One thing I especially appreciated was that they made sure my dinner was brought to me right when I actually had a chance to sit down and eat, so it was still hot, and they made sure my water glass stayed full all night long. Small things like that really showed how much they cared and paid attention. We also didn’t hire a wedding coordinator, but between our DJ, Sadie, and Myra, everything flowed so smoothly and completely according to plan. I never felt stressed or confused about what was happening next. I also want to mention how impressed I was with the transition between event directors. We had originally been planning with Tawnya for most of the process, and about a month before the wedding we learned she would be leaving and Sadie would be taking over. From our perspective, the transition could not have gone more smoothly. There was absolutely no lapse in communication or service. Sadie knew every detail and picked up right where Tawnya left off, which made us feel so supported during such an important time. Big Rec gave us such an amazing wedding day and memories we will cherish forever. Everything looked beautiful, the staff was exceptional, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a wedding space with an incredible team behind it.”

“Definitely check out David L Baker for your reception if you're ballin' on a budget. They were able to fit our budget well within reason and had all the amenities that my, now, wife was looking for. They were great at communicating with us throughout and helped us plan this stressful, but joyous(!) time. Amber gave us the first walkthrough and Julia helped us in more detail afterwards. Julia did a great job coordinating with our wedding coordinator. IF anything terrible happened during the wedding... I definitely never found out! So good job to both of them I guess! Logistically, there's plenty of parking, plenty of wiggle room, multiple bathrooms, bar... What more does a reception need? Definitely give them a look!”

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jennifer Flores and Carina Martinez, the incredible wedding coordinators at Lakewood Country Club, for my wedding on October 11, 2025 and I can truly say it was a dream come true. From the very beginning, Jennifer and Carina were patient, visionary, and incredibly kind. They guided us through every step of the planning process from the tasting to the final details with grace and professionalism. Their attention to detail and calm demeanor made the entire experience stress-free and joyful. The venue itself was everything I had hoped for: romantic, elegant, and perfectly suited to our celebration. The dance floor was electric, the ambiance flawless, and the flow of the evening was seamless. My guests are still raving about the short ribs, my brother even asked for seconds! Every member of the staff went above and beyond to make our day special. Their warmth and enthusiasm were contagious, and their dedication ensured that everything ran without a hitch.

“The Grand Theater was a beautiful wedding venue, with a stunning space and amazing food. The staff was awesome and very attentive to our needs. However, we did have some issues with their communication and payment processes. There were a few instances where payments failed to go through due to their system having an error and they didn't tell us until days later. Towards the end, they also tried to overcharge us but we were able to catch these errors by referencing our contract. They quickly fixed the issues, but it was a bit frustrating to have to double-check and get everything sorted. Overall, the venue and staff were great, but be sure to carefully review your contract and keep on top of all payments to avoid any problems. I don't think any of the issues we had were malicious or done intentionally so I would recommend them!”

“Just had our wedding here on 9/28/24 and wow where can I start??! From the beginning when we toured the venue, we had no idea what to expect considering this was one of the more relatively lower budget venues we were touring at. So imagine our surprise when we got there and saw this venue, which was even more gorgeous than the more expensive ones we looked at previously. Pictures don’t really do this place justice. The venue has a Spanish-colonial design which makes for a perfect backdrop for photos. The arches both outside and inside the building really makes it feel grand. The string lights in the courtyard are so pretty, both in the daylight and when they’re lit up at nighttime. The hills of rolling green grass in the background really give off that golf club aesthetic and all the palm trees around the venue really pop off and give California vibes. The view of the grassy lawn and palm trees I saw when I walked down the aisle was truly breathtaking and I’ll never forget this moment. But mostly, we were in such good hands with Michael as the director. He comes from tons of experience (over 2000 weddings) and really treats your special day with so much empathy and care. Him and Mayra helped us out in so many ways: -Set up our welcome table, seating chart display, and decorations with very little direction. I didn’t have time during rehearsal to let them know how and where to set it up, and when the wedding day came, everything was already set up so beautifully. -We didn’t know we had to ask for a mic from our DJ, so we didn’t have one, and Michael took care of that problem very quickly. -Michael walked me around the back entrance of the venue before I walked down the aisle, my pointy heels kept getting stuck in the ripped hole in my wedding dress and Michael helped me pull it out twice. -Mayra helped me change into my 2nd wedding dress when I wasn’t able to find my bridesmaids near me. -Michael swept up the fake money off the floor during reception, and also hand delivered us our signature drinks when we asked for them. -I requested a signature drink that they’ve never made before and Michael personally tried out a bunch of recipes and helped pick out the best one. Overall, Michael and Mayra put so much care and thought towards this special moment of our lives. With this venue, you get it all-the perfect coordinators and the most beautiful setting. Some other things to note-food was amazing, both cocktail hour and reception. The food was also plated and presented very well too. The only area of improvement would be that there is no bridal/groom suite. It wasn’t an issue for us since there is a fitting room on site. But in the future, it there is an opportunity, building a bridal/groom suite would improve the experience for others greatly.”

The servers were friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. A special shoutout to Hannah, Jordan and Shelby - they were amazing and helped make our special day perfect.”

“We had our daughters wedding reception at the Jonathan Beach Club in their new Penthouse space and it was spectacular. Every aspect of the event was exactly what we'd hoped. The Jonathan Club Wedding Event Coordinator, Christie DeMoss was delightful to work with and had fabulous suggestions. The food tasting was lovely and we felt so special and excited about what our guests would be feasting on! The food was truly elevated and absolutely delicious. The space and the setup were perfect with an outdoor balcony cocktail area and bar, a large lobby for the guestbook, photobooth and activity and then the gorgeous reception space with dance floor. The staff were amazing and so friendly and attentive! I would highly recommend the JBC!”

“We truly could not have asked for a better wedding experience! From the very beginning, Wedgewood Weddings made the entire planning process incredibly easy and practically effortless. They take care of so many of the details, planning, and coordination for you, which means you actually get to enjoy the fun parts of wedding planning—choosing your colors, cake flavors, menu items, décor, and all of the little personal touches that make the day yours. Throughout the entire process, the team was thoughtful, attentive, organized, and incredibly responsive. We always felt like we were in great hands, and when our wedding day arrived, everything came together absolutely perfectly. We genuinely had ZERO hiccups! We were able to be completely present and enjoy our wedding without worrying about what was happening behind the scenes because they had everything handled. We especially want to recognize Noelle, our day-of coordinator. She was absolutely wonderful—so sweet, thoughtful, attentive, and helpful. She truly went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of and that our day was perfect. We were especially touched by the sweet note she left in our card box, along with a photo from our wedding that she had already printed and framed for us. It was such an unexpected and thoughtful gesture and something we will always treasure. DJ Bobby was also AMAZING! He did such a fantastic job throughout the entire reception and helped make the celebration so much fun. The music and energy were exactly what we wanted, and our guests had an absolute blast. And we cannot say enough wonderful things about our photographer, Myro from True Photography. He was incredible to work with and did such an amazing job capturing our day. We are so grateful to have all of those beautiful moments preserved and absolutely loved having him there as part of our wedding experience. Our wedding was everything we dreamed it would be—beautiful, joyful, stress-free, and genuinely perfect. We are incredibly grateful to the entire Wedgewood team and everyone who helped bring our day together. If you want a beautiful wedding without the stress of having to coordinate a million different details and vendors yourself, we cannot recommend Wedgewood Weddings enough. They made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish and allowed us to simply soak in and enjoy one of the happiest days of our lives.”

“This venue is absolutely beautiful, but what truly sets it apart is the exceptional team at Black Gold. The level of service they provide to make every detail perfect is incredible. Their dedication was one of the main reasons I chose this venue, and they exceeded every expectation. I would have been a lost bride without them, but they made the entire planning process easy and stress-free. Because of their guidance and support, I was able to fully enjoy every moment of my wedding day. They walked us through each part of the ceremony and reception, ensuring everything ran smoothly while allowing us to stay present and enjoy the experience. My husband was incredibly impressed and gave me all the credit for an amazing wedding, but the truth is that the team at Black Gold deserves so much of that praise. Throughout the planning process, they maintained excellent communication while remaining flexible with my schedule, so I never felt overwhelmed trying to balance work and wedding planning. Joni and Lauren shared their expertise on countless details, both big and small, and were always quick to respond—even to my last-minute questions during the week of the wedding. On the wedding day, they were by my side making sure everything looked exactly as I had envisioned and that every detail was executed seamlessly. Marco was also incredible. He brought me water during pre-ceremony photos, carried my dress as we moved around the venue, and guided us through the day's events. He made sure we had a personal tray of appetizers, brought us our signature drinks, and even kindly paused guests from interrupting our dinner so we could actually enjoy our meal together. One of the greatest compliments we received after the wedding came from our guests. We heard rave reviews about every aspect of the experience—from the beauty of the venue, to the exceptional service provided by every staff member they interacted with, to the incredible food. I honestly don't think I've ever heard so many compliments about wedding food. Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was and how well they were taken care of throughout the evening. This team operates with such professionalism and care that we truly enjoyed our wedding from beginning to end. We made only a few key decisions, shared our vision, and then simply showed up and enjoyed the magic. I'm sure it took countless conversations, days of preparation, and extensive coordination behind the scenes, but they made everything look effortless. We are beyond grateful for the entire Black Gold team and couldn't have imagined a better wedding experience.”

“Working with the Bel Air Bay Club to plan my wedding was so amazing and simple! I got married on Saturday June 6, 2026. They provide workbooks and packets of things you must decide on to make your day how you want. I was lucky enough to have had a planner help me plan my perfect day, but the BABC did an amazing job communicating with me as well to make sure we were all on the same page. The staff was so attentive and friendly throughout the whole process. From working with Liz, Jenny, and Alissa leading up to the big day to the staff the day of the wedding, the service and etiquette was more than I could’ve ever imagined. My husband and I were well taken care of all day and everyone always made sure they were there is we needed anything. Marielena, the bridal assistant from BABC, was the sweetest most angelic person I have ever met! She was such an amazing help to my husband and I on the day, and I couldn’t imagine my day without her help. She really is a fairy godmother and if you’re lucky enough to be able to have her assist you on your day, it is such a treat. The food was amazing from start to finish, our guests continue to rave about it until this day! They have so many great options to select from to personalize your day to fit you and your partner’s preferences. The quality is definitely up to par for the price you pay. The BABC does have a lot of regulations and protocols to be mindful of for the day of your event since they are a very busy venue, if you have any questions about restrictions or regulations their team does a great job of answering all of your questions or concerns. My wedding day was such a dream and I wish I could relive it everyday thanks to everyone at the BABC and our amazing vendors. ️️”
