First - the food is delicious and the setting perfect for a wonderful meal. We used them for a rehearsal dinner of 40 and were absolutely impressed by Tiato! We spent quite a lot of time looking for a location for my daughters rehearsal dinner. Many friends suggested Tiato as a perfect location as it has a lot of beautiful spaces including a great outdoor space and wonderful food. The proposal we received from Tiato was so professional, thorough and thoughtful. I was very impressed in my dealings with Stephen Cisneros and knew it would be a fabulous event. We had the most wonderful tasting before selecting our final menu and everything was so good, it was difficult to choose. Stephen and his team went out of their way to make sure our evening was special including providing microphones for speeches, a lovely set-up and, most importantly, amazing food. The passed appetizers were delicious and beautifully presented. Stephen had great suggestions for timing of the event. Easy parking was included and the prices were fair. I appreciated that adding a specialty cocktail (we picked a wonderful berry margarita which featured fresh pressed blueberry, lemon and lime juices) was only 7.50 per person in addition to a reasonable bar package. I highly recommend Tiato for a lunch, dinner or event! Love the food!

SmogShoppe was the perfect venue for our sangeet (welcome event). The living walls and really unique interior made it so we barely had to decorate. The sofas and open indoor/outdoor area also made for the perfect cocktail reception area. Our guests are still talking about how cool the space was. On top of the venue, Clare and Galen, and the rest of the smog shoppe staff were absolutely wonderful to work with. They were super communicative, helpful, and super accommodating with any questions or concerns we had.

The Luxe Sunset is a beautiful oasis right off Sunset Blvd, with easy access from the 405. It's amazing how quickly you're transformed from the hustle and bustle of the city to serene luxury, as soon as you arrive in the tree-lined grounds of the hotel. More importantly, I want to rave about the staff, and Joshua Washington in particular, who's in charge of room blocks and Kelsey Hernandez in charge of venue spaces. Joshua was such a professional, respectful, and generous hospitality professional. All hospitality and service pros should take note. He was attentive and communicative, without being overly so. And he was just a joy to work with. In full candor, my fiancee and I were looking very seriously at The Luxe for our wedding room block, as well as venues for rehearsal dinner, welcome event and farewell brunch. The Sunset Terrace (breezeway) is a dream of an outdoor venue area. However, due to a number of factors unrelated to how extraordinary the Luxe and its staff are, we ended up going with a different venue. Still, my fiancee and I really love the Luxe, it was really hard to not be able to select it as our home base for our wedding weekend. We wish we could have worked with Joshua and his team for longer, and made use of the incredible settings that the hotel offers. For what it's worth, they're remodeling all the guest rooms. I didn't find any issue with the already-updated guest rooms, but it's good to know they'll be even newer and even more amazing. No disruption to their capacity in the meantime. And at the risk of them seeing this and increasing their prices, I want to say the prices for rooms, venues and Food&Bev were shockingly reasonable. My fiancee and I did deep dives into 5 different venues in west LA, and Luxe had the best prices. If you're looking for an intimate, upscale location that's not far away but still feels removed from reality, definitely reach out to Joshua and the team at Luxe. You will not be disappointed.

This venue was pure magic from start to finish. We exchanged vows on the lawn with the stunning Downtown LA skyline in the distance and lush canyon greenery all around us—it felt like we were in our own private world. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the infinity pool area and the pavilion, which made the perfect spot for cocktails at sunset. The staff were incredible, taking care of every detail so we could just enjoy our day. Every photo looks like it belongs in a magazine. We’ll cherish this place and the memories we made here forever.

We got married in the White Room at Founders and loved every second of it. The retractable rooftop gave us that open air feeling we wanted, and when our guests moved to the grand ballroom afterward, the transition felt seamless. The space is truly expansive, which made the room feel airy and not cramped even with everyone there. The lighting design throughout was stunning and really set the mood for the evening. Founders has an elegant style with vibrant décor that photographs beautifully, and the venue itself is a work of art. We'd absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a sophisticated space with room to breathe.
