So they decided to put their heads together, and the idea of a wedding and event venue took off. From there comes Hart & Main.

Hart & Main was the perfect venue for our 120-person wedding. It was cozy but, it made the dance floor seem full at all times! All tables and chairs are included for ceremony and reception. We went with all rounds and the natural wood was beautiful with our theme. The bride and groom suites were perfect to get ready in. We each had 6 people in our bridal party - with hair and makeup people in the room any more would feel crowded. My favorite was the green wall, it creates the perfect background for photos. Everyone here is a pleasure to work with.

The Warner Center Marriott has always exceeded my expectations with each and every one of the events I've planned and held there. Their ballroom is spacious enough to accommodate a large lavish wedding, Mitzvah or corporate event and can even be downsized for my client's more intimate gatherings. The food is amazing , not your typical banquet fare and the staff always goes above and beyond to cater to my clients most discerning requests. This is a top notch event venue that should be considered for anyone looking to hold a celebration that wows their guests.

La Tuna Locations was the wedding venue of our absolute dreams. We loved the idea of getting married surrounded by citrus trees--it felt uniquely Southern Californian--so we were immediately excited when we saw the photos. But visiting the place in person, we were transported. It's absolutely stunning in person, and the variety of locations within the property for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception made it feel like were we getting three spaces for the price of one--four if you count the stunning photo shoot we did on the mountaintop. Jaime was absolutely incredible to work with (and recommended our outstanding coordinator as well). She was flawlessly professional, but warm and kind. We trusted they knew what they were doing, but we never felt like we were dealing with a wedding factory. This place is an absolute gem.

Venue considerations

  • No venue-provided food services
We were looking for a unique venue for our wedding. We knew we wanted it to be outdoors and a place for both a reception and the ceremony so that our guests wouldn't have to travel between the two. The Enchanted Manor was the first place we looked at and we both felt that it was the right fit. Georgia has created a little oasis in her back yard that we felt fit our vibe - lowkey, but classy. The playhouse was a great place that the kids could escape to to watch TV while their parents enjoyed the party. We had booked originally for approximately 60 guests, however once all the pieces fell into place we were closer to 50. Unfortunately our guest count dropped below 50 just after our window to let Georgia know, but she was kind enough to offer us the price difference. We applied that balance towards renting some heaters and lighting the fire pits as the weather got colder than anticipated, as well as to handling the trash. (Pay attention to the contract, you are responsible for removing trash or there is a fee.) I appreciated her communication and patience walking me through things - planning a wedding myself was a task that was draining on me! One thing I didn’t realize before booking was that there is space for a kitchen, but it needs to be built out for your event, so make sure you consider that into any costs. Georgia was really helpful and responsive to all of our questions (we had so many) and anything that we couldn’t do she had very reasonable reasons. (For example, at one point I thought I’d like confetti, but she explained why she doesn’t allow that on her property which made total sense!) The weeks before I became worried that there wasn’t enough decor, so we bought some items that we ended up returning. Once the rentals arrived, combined with the lighting, everything was beautiful as it was. We’ve started to see some photos and everything looked beautiful; it was a romantic but relaxed vibe which was just what we wanted. I worried it wouldn’t feel like a wedding, but it did. Georgia was a gracious host, our guests enjoyed her home (we made sure to tell them that they could rent it as well for an overnight getaway) and we can’t wait to start reading her book. We stayed in touch after the wedding and I hope we meet again in the future for events or just a dinner to hear of her adventures! PS - her cats were big hits all around, too!

The 1909 stood out among the 15 venues we considered, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. From the start, we were captivated by the stunning ceremony deck, and during our in-person visit, the venue's unique charm won us over completely. It perfectly embodies the romantic, woodsy vibe we were searching for, with lush greenery that feels worlds away from the busy LA metro area, yet still conveniently close to it—especially for those of us familiar with the Valley. Nestled in the heart of Topanga Canyon, The 1909 offers a serene escape from city life. The venue provides a variety of rental options that seamlessly complement the natural setting, and everything is meticulously maintained. What really impressed us was the rental package—it includes access to the entire event space, from the beautiful ceremony deck and reception lawn to the indoor dance floor and bridal suite. As a first-time wedding planner, I also appreciated The 1909’s transparency with their pricing, which made the planning process much smoother. A special shoutout goes to Cristina, the venue manager. She patiently answered all of our detailed questions and coordinated multiple walkthroughs with us. Her support was instrumental in making our wedding a success, and I can’t thank her enough. If you’re planning a wedding at The 1909 with Cristina, rest assured—you’re in great hands.

I was anticipating a seamless event thanks to all the online reviews plus word of mouth from friends, and the Chloe's / Golden Road team truly delivered! We planned our wedding reception to be in the Biergarden & Chloe's, then when LA rain started to trickle down, the staff pivoted so that vendors and guests could enjoy the indoor spaces more. Sarah and Andrew are amazing event managers, and the on-site staff went above and beyond to make it a great reception. Guests were clamoring at the to-go boxes to bring food home at the end of the night (we ordered tons of apps, ribs, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, churros, you name it). We had around 90 people and even though we were mostly limited indoors, I feel like it was plenty of space as folks spread out between the main room, Snug, Barrel Room, and upstairs area. Thank you for making it a wonderful, no-frills and no-stress reception!

There are so many positive things that I’d like to share about the La Cañada Thursday Club! I first toured the venue about 2 years ago and fell in love the moment I saw the courtyard. The beautiful big trees, the way the bright pink bougainvillea plants draped around the entrance gates, and the fountain with the beautiful teal Spanish tiles.. it was everything I could want and more! The garden out front is the perfect area to take photos with its shady green trees. My absolute favorite detail are the beautiful deep teal doors! Another perfect area for photos. The ballroom is equally beautiful! While the space does hold up to 130 people, it’s the perfect place for an intimate celebration and I loved that there was a tearoom area for our Photo Booth and dessert/coffee area. We absolutely loved our wedding! We loved working with Ani. You can truly tell that she enjoys doing what she does because she showed us so much care during the planning process, she always made us laugh, always checked in to ask how we were doing/feeling. She was professional and showed great attention to detail, made sure to answer any question we had and most importantly made sure we were happy! She worked well with our wedding coordinator and vendors and worked alongside Jose (venue maintenance worker). Ani even left us the sweetest message on our audio guest book (After the Tone). I’m so happy to have her voice recorded in our messages, she helped make our day so special and I will always thank her. Everything flowed so seamlessly! I also have to give praise to Jose, who does the maintenance and help around the venue. The day before our wedding we were able to access the venue to set up, drop off items, and Jose was there helping our family, answering questions. Even the day of the wedding Jose was there to step in and help and would check in our our guests as well! Our guests raved on how beautiful the venue and how helpful the staff was. We truly feel so blessed to have been able to celebrate our special day at the La Cañada Thursday Club. I wish I could relive our wedding day all over again, you could just feel the presence of so much love in the room. Thank you so much to Ani & Jose for making our wedding so beautiful and special!

Tam O'Shanter was an amazing wedding venue that exceeded our expectations in every way. The communication which started with Tabitha down to the Sam, Dan & then entire server team was easy, fast and complete, which made our special day a breeze. The quality of their work and the overall value was truly outstanding - the venue was beautifully set up, spotlessly clean, and the food and drinks were incredible. The staff was courteous, helpful and attentive, constantly checking in to make sure we were happy. They went above and beyond to assist our party, from serving to helping set up. Everyone in attendance raved about the incredible service and delicious cuisine. We could not have asked for a better team to help make our engagement party perfect. We highly recommend Tam O'Shanter to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding venue experience.

Let me tell you about the time I got hitched at "Sany on the Hill," or as I like to call it, "The Spot Where 'I Do' Doesn't Mean 'I Regret This Tomorrow.'" Nestled in LA's embrace, this place is less of a venue and more of a fairy tale experience that forgot it's in the middle of the city. Picture this: 100 guests, and not once did I hear, "Excuse me, could you scooch a bit? Your elbow's in my cake." Walking into "Sany on the Hill" was like stepping into that dream home you build in your mind during boring meetings. Except, this one's real, and you're allowed to throw the biggest party of your life here. The gardens? Manicured to perfection, as if each leaf had its own personal stylist. And the views? Let's just say my phone’s camera had a day it'll never forget. Indoors, it's elegance with a capital E. It felt like stepping into one of those home decor magazines, except no one yelled at me for sitting on the furniture. We're talking classy interiors that made me think, "Wow, so this is how the other half lives!" And yet, it was all so welcoming, like the place was giving you a big, warm hug and whispering, "Let's make some memories." The hosts at "Sany on the Hill" are the real MVPs. Attentive, kind, and with the magical ability to anticipate your needs before you even know you need them. Forgot your vows? No problem, they've got a solution. Need a last min MUA? They have a rolodex of vendors to choose from! They made the whole shebang feel like a breeze. In conclusion, if you're looking to get married in LA and you don't choose "Sany on the Hill," well, you're probably the type who thinks socks with sandals is a fashion statement. This place isn't just a venue; it's where wedding dreams hitch a ride on a shooting star. Would I do it all over again? In a heartbeat. But let's keep that between us—I'm not sure my other half is ready to plan another wedding just yet! LOL

The venue itself is a true gem — an idyllic outdoor setting that made for the perfect backdrop to the celebration. They even have a whole fire pit area tucked away in the back! Whether you were enjoying the scenery or the vibrant atmosphere, it felt like stepping into a paradise. The Baja-inspired food was beyond delicious — fresh, flavorful, and packed with so much variety. Every bite was a burst of flavor, and it paired perfectly with the MOST amazing cocktails! The drink selection was next-level, with creative, expertly crafted options that elevated the entire event. What really made this experience stand out, though, was the impeccable service. The planning process was seamless, with clear communication every step of the way. The team was incredibly responsive and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. During the event itself, the entire Tacolina team was so hospitable, efficient, friendly, and so professional — it truly felt like everything had been thought of in advance, which made the event stress-free and enjoyable.

My family selected Jamaica Bay Inn because it was next to a small beach cove accessible from the Bermuda banquet room. We gathered for a Celebration of Life event and wanted to fly kites in memory of our beloved that passed away. Sayyora the Catering Manager was extremely efficient and flexible with the menu and my special request. Christina and the banquest staff were amazing. Christina had to leave the room to answer another clients questions and made sure another banquet person was in the room until she returned. The food was hot and plentiful. We selected the Buffet Pasta Station (1 with chicken and 1 with shrimp), baby greens salad, delicious fresh fruit. Accomodations were made for my request for a gluten free menu. I was in the hospitality business for 19 years for major hotels as a Catering Manger and Covention Services Manager and my critical eye can be hard to please. But I must say that the attention to detail was above and beyond. I would recommend Jamacia Bay at every opportunity. My family wants to return for a family reunion or just a family luncheon. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

I recently had my wedding here on March 16, 2024. I had to come and leave a review because my husband and I are so happy with our experience. From the moment we booked the venue (March 2023) until the day of our wedding, the staff at Pacific View Tower was very responsive and always available for questions. Brittany is a true rock star and not only made our vision come to life but exceeded all our expectations. Along with that, their floral vendor, Maribel, really listened to my wants and made our wedding look stunning. All of our guests were blown away by the venue, the service, and the food.

The Velaslavasay Panorama is housed in the Union Theatre, a historic neighborhood cinema built in 1910 with a neon marquee, enchanting garden, vintage theatre space and 360-degree painted panorama viewing hall. Set in the historic West Adams District near Downtown LA, the Velaslavasay Panorama is proud to participate in the cultural and artistic identity of the great city of Los Angeles, known the world over as an entertainment capital and the center of magnetic showmanship and spectacle. A visit to our panorama is complimented by a stroll through The Velaslavasay Garden and Grounds, featuring lush tropical plantings, a wide variety of succulents, a misting and meditation grotto, and a copper-roofed gazebo for reading and reflection. Reminiscent of the great 19th century pleasure gardens, our Grounds provide welcome respite from the everyday cares of the world.

If what you are seeking is a truly magical venue, look no further than the Velaslavasay Panorama. My wife and I did not want to have the typical hotel conference hall wedding. We wanted to show our family from outside of LA a place that was meaningful to us and at the same time still impress our friends from LA. The Panorama is genuinely extraordinary, with several different areas that can be arranged to suit your celebration. Our guest list was about 70 people and it was the perfect size. We opted to have our main ceremony in the historic theatre, our cocktail reception with our bartender in the lush garden, our musician play in the gazebo, and our dinner in the large area outside the moon gate. This made it easy for pick ups and drop offs with our catering and table / chair / bar rental. Sara and Ruby from the Panorama were absolutely lovely to deal with and helped considerably with logistics before, during, and after the event. Our photographer loved all of the different backdrops possible and everyone kept mentioning how wonderful the venue was. Check it out, I'm sure you will be absolutely stunned by the Panorama.

I chose the scenic rooftop of the Hilton Checkers as the spot to propose to my girlfriend because of our shared love for city landscapes and spending our weekends exploring the city. The hotel provides many amazing photo spots from the entrance of the hotel to the main staircase to the elevators and most importantly the rooftop view of the city which all gives a stunning historic look at the city of Los Angeles. It was an amazing experience working with the hotel as well. Sandra the sales manager at the hotel made it a breeze to book and coordinate the event with my florist and photographer. The hotel staff was also super helpful with helping me hold onto the roses to pick up on a later day and helping me load them all into my vehicle. The overall experience exceeded my expectations and I wouldn't change a thing!
