The Heritage Museum of OC is a beautiful little gem in Santa Ana. My husband and I knew after our first tour of the grounds that this was our wedding venue. We have zero regrets. It’s a gorgeous space! The house is beautiful and the grounds are well maintained year-round. Not only that, but the staff at the museum are so wonderful and easy to work with. Kaitlyn was our venue coordinator and she was fantastic from day one. She answered all of my endless questions throughout the wedding planning process and was always incredibly patient, helpful and kind. She really calmed my nerves the night before and the day of the wedding. The venue was also super flexible with last minute rainstorms. The canopies didn’t take away from how beautiful the venue is. I highly recommend getting married here rain or shine!

From the moment we booked The Gardens at Los Robles Greens almost two years ago, their communication was always prompt and informative. Leading up to the wedding, they answered all my emails promptly and always made me excited for my wedding. The venue provided a day for all couples getting married in the next 4-6 months to taste the delicious food options and see the elegant rental displays, which made it easy for us to envision our perfect day. We were getting married in May so our "tasting day" was in the November before. A month before the wedding, we met with the director to finalize the floor plan for our ceremony and reception, and they handled all the setup so everything looked electric, clean, and beautiful. The one challenge I had as a bride was their rule about not having a place to refrigerate the cake prior to it being set out during the wedding, but our baker was able to deliver it at the right time so that it stayed fresh during the evening. The Gardens at Los Robles Greens truly made our special day incredibly easy and stress-free. We are so grateful for their excellent service and stunning venue.

I really wanted to get married in a garden with Greenery around. This place was the perfect place. We only have the ceremony there and the pictures were exactly what I wanted. Only 2 things I wasn't happy with was that they didn't arrange the chairs the way we had asked (I sent pictures and they said they would). And our other issue was that since we got married on a Sunday morning, there was also a basketball game going on that we had no idea about, so parking was somewhat hard to find. It didn't ruin our day, but could've been perfect.

Heritage Park and Clarke estate are two hidden gem venues I love telling future clients about along with friends and family. Working there as a preferred vendor for nearly 5 years now has been a great experience as a vendor and for my clients as well. Working together with a venue to ensure the couples day is going well without a hitch is very important and let me tell you Leanne and her staff consistently work together and hard to make sure of that. Not only are both venues historic they're also affordable. That is a perfect combination for a venue Especially when people need to accommodate large guests 200-300 guests. Highly recommend both venues I do work more at heritage Park since their guest capacity is 300 but I always look forward to working with Leanne. Always a great experience.

Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum

Topanga, CA
  • Up to 299 guests
  • Raw space

  • Starts at $2,500

After being blacklisted during the McCarthy Era, Will Geer & his wife, fellow actress, Herta Ware, established Theatricum Botanicum in Topanga, California providing a safe haven for other blacklisted artists such as Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. Supported by his botany background, the theatre thrived alongside a garden, sustaining the family. Geer's resurgence came with playing Grandpa Zebulon "Zeb" Walton in "The Waltons," leading to the formation of a non-profit theatre. Theatricum evolved into a professional repertory company, offering Shakespeare performances and concerts. Ellen Geer now leads the theatre, known internationally for its Shakespearean interpretations. With year-round classes, concerts, and outreach programs, Theatricum aims to nurture theatre enthusiasts in the Greater Los Angeles Metro area, carrying on Geer's legacy.

This is a truly special place run by special people. From beginning to end, they were so helpful, willing to answer all my questions and work with me and my vendors to create a magical day. We got married on the stage, which was so gorgeous, and had our reception in the garden. Our guests absolutely gushed about how unique and meaningful everything was (we're both actors and Shakespeare nerds!). The pictures are beautiful - we got married in mid-May and the whole venue was bursting with flowers! Despite being outdoors, there weren't as many bugs as you'd think, and the temperature was perfect. I worried about it being too dark after sunset, but between the string lights and dance floor lights, that was no problem. Things to keep in mind - it's very DIY, so you'll need to bring everything in, including linens, catering, dinnerware, glassware, etc. Music has to stop at 10pm (local noise ordinance) and everyone must be out by 11, which was perfect for us since we're not late night partiers. Tell your guests to bring a jacket since it gets a little chilly at night (we rented propane heaters). Cell phone service can be sketchy but there is wi-fi on property. The bathrooms aren't hotel fancy, but perfectly fine and clean. There are plenty of outlets at useful places. I'm so glad I got married here - it was a perfect day and I couldn't imagine my wedding anywhere else!

Our wedding at Summit House Restaurant was an absolute dream come true. From the very first interaction, the team there was transparent, professional, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. The natural beauty of the venue lent itself to so many unforgettable moments and photos that we'll cherish forever. The Summit House team, from planning and ceremony coordination with LeeAnn, to the entire service team during cocktail hour and reception, ensured everything was seamless. They made sure we were well-informed and had everything we needed, and we loved that we were able to secure our own vendors while also using a couple from their preferred list. The gorgeous landscaping, accessible location, great food and service, and affordable pricing made Summit House the perfect choice for our special day. We couldn't recommend them more highly and would get married there all over again if we could!

This location was perfect!!!! I honestly couldn't have been more pleased with how easy the owners made my planning. Loved that we were able to bring outside vendors for food. They are family owned and let me tell you they make you feel like family. That was one of my favorite things about this venue. Karis was amazing. She is one of the owners and was so welcoming. I loved that they had all the things I needed and had connections if they didn't. This made planning stress-free. I didn't have to call around to find chairs/tables/linen/heaters etc. My guests were all amazed with how unique and beautiful the venue was. Hopefully in the near future we can have our baby shower there.

San Juan Capistrano, CA

  • Select services

  • Starts at $7,000

The traditional Mexican Palenque was an arena that hosted many large parties and even battles that date back to a Mayan civilization that still stands today in Chiapas, Mexico. El Adobe added the Palenque Room to match this Mexican event space concept and host larger parties of its own. Weddings had long since been taking place at El Adobe but with the new Palenque Room and Chapel location in the adjacent Garden, it gave guests a dedicated space to host a grand wedding celebration with up to 250 guests in attendance. One of the most well-known features of this room is the retractable ceiling that opens up almost 40ft across to expose the skies above San Juan Capistrano. The room and its Garden have evolved over time adding a full bar of its own and spacious restrooms to accommodate the larger guest count. However, it still holds its original style and beauty where thousands have come to celebrate their special events and gather their friends and families for an unforgettable night.

We truly could not have asked for a more perfect wedding venue. From the moment we booked El Adobe, Daniel and Sianna made the entire planning process feel so smooth and stress-free. They were incredibly kind, organized, responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with. On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment. The food and drinks were fantastic, and our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was! The venue itself was everything we had dreamed of and more. We received so many compliments on how charming, romantic, and beautiful the space was. From the lush courtyard to the rustic Spanish architecture and the stunning reception space with its retractable roof, every detail felt magical. We also loved that the venue had so much character while still allowing us to make it our own. We have absolutely zero regrets choosing El Adobe, it was truly the wedding venue of our dreams.
