“We got married at the Wedgewood University Club in Irvine this past May, and I cannot recommend this venue and their staff enough! We were so lucky to have Brianna as our coordinator—she took such great care of us, and we absolutely loved working with her. She is incredibly nice, professional, and organized. Brianna was always on top of everything, supporting my husband and me and truly having our backs throughout the entire wedding process. The food was also fantastic! So many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed their meals. On top of that, the entire staff was super helpful and responsive to any questions we had. If you want a smooth wedding planning process with a team that supports you every step of the way, I highly recommend them!”
