Malibu Farm may be the best new venue in San Diego! From the location to the farm to table restaurant we were blown away with the attention to detail.

From our first inquiry, the team at San Clemente Shore by Wedgewood Weddings was incredibly thorough, informative and organized. Our coordinator, Noelle, was experienced and made sure our vision came to life in an elegant and fun way. Noelle and her team paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring my husband and I were taken care of all night - they even packed us a bag of food and cake to take home!

I've been in the industry since 2014 and the Harper is by far one of my favorite venues to work at! As a planner/coordinator myself, I've worked with several venues and none are as professional and accommodating to its guests as well as its vendors. I always know that everyone that comes through Harper's doors are in good hands from beginning to end. Service is always impeccable--making the wedding planning process and the day-of as seamless as can be! I do not know any vendor nor any couple that has been dissatisfied with the Harper and this speaks volumes to how they treat the people they serve.

This review is long overdue. We planned our wedding in just two months, and Recreation Park Golf Course 18 made it possible. Tawnya and her team responded to every question quickly and kept us informed every step of the way. Tawnya is the reason why we ended up having a full blown wedding rather than just a dinner. The venue itself is gorgeous with plenty of room for our guests, especially those with kids. the pricing was beyond reasonable, the ceremony space is what sold us, and the food was delicious. Guests are still raving about it! The staff worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly and our day felt special. We're grateful to Tawnya and everyone at Recreation Park Golf Course 18 for helping us pull off the wedding in such a short time

I don’t even know where to begin in expressing our gratitude for Meadowlark Golf Club and their incredible team. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the right place for us, but we couldn’t have imagined just how magical our wedding day would actually end up being, in no small part due to the exceptional team supporting us throughout as well as the beauty of the venue itself. Amber, during the early phases when we were still learning about and deciding between venues, and Hannah, for pretty much all of our needs once we kicked off the formal planning process, went above and beyond in every way. Their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free (to the extent that something like this can be of course). They were always there with a smile, checking in, anticipating our needs, and making sure we could be fully present and enjoy the day. Thanks to them, everything flowed so seamlessly that we never had to worry about a thing. The setting at Meadowlark was breathtaking with every view being picture-perfect, and our guests were blown away by how beautiful and welcoming it all felt. But what really made the day unforgettable was the care, enthusiasm and attention to detail that Hannah, Cliff and the whole team poured into it. Our wedding day was more perfect than we ever dreamed, and we will forever be grateful to the entire team at Meadowlark Golf Club for giving us memories we’ll cherish for a lifetime.

We’ve been working with Tre, the owner of Events on Pine, for over a year now, and from the moment we first saw the space, we knew it was the one. We fell in love with the venue instantly and booked it right away for our wedding in May 2026. Throughout the entire process, Tre was incredible. We attended several of her open houses, and every time she was welcoming, helpful, and genuinely supportive. She shared so many great ideas and made the planning process feel exciting rather than overwhelming. Her insight, responsiveness, flexibility, and overall energy made such a difference for us throughout the year. Now that we officially had our wedding here, we can honestly say it was everything we hoped for and more. Tre and her team were amazing from start to finish. After over a year of planning together, it was so special to finally see everything come to life. The space looked beautiful, the flow of the day felt smooth, and our guests kept telling us how much they loved the venue. From the morning of the event, Tre and her husband were helpful, supportive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything went well. The suites available for getting ready were perfect for photos, our first look, and our first touch. My family was also able to use the other suite, which made the day feel comfortable and organized from the very beginning. One of the coolest parts was having our ceremony in the space and then watching it completely transform into the reception during cocktail hour. The room flip turned out beautifully. Our guests were impressed, and honestly, so were we. We received so many compliments on how everything looked and how smoothly the transition happened. Tre also brought amazing ideas that contributed to the overall vision of our ceremony and celebration. She truly helped bring our vision to life and made us feel confident every step of the way. We are so grateful we chose Events on Pine for such an important day in our lives. It will always be a place that means so much to us, and we genuinely cannot recommend it enough.

We had the honor of working with Marla for our wedding in July 2024 and we cannot say enough AMAZING things about working with her to make our wedding dreams come true. Hotel Maya was the first venue to respond to our inquiry when we first reached out to venues. When we had our initial site visit, Marla was so thorough with her questions to ensure that the spaces we looked at fit our budget or vision. She advised that the hotel is pet friendly, which we loved since we wanted a venue where our dog could be part of the wedding ceremony. We fell in love with the spaces (Jardin de Palmeras and Miramar Ballroom) and loved that they beautifully showcased Long Beach. To that, Hotel Maya offers wedding packages that include ceremony & reception spaces, wedding cake, day-of coordinator, day-of get ready room, hotel room the night of the wedding, catering, cake cutting knife & server, tables, chairs, utensils, tablecloths, and so much more! We didn’t have to look any further and booked Hotel Maya right away! During the wedding planning process, Marla continued to be the absolute best to work with. I came with a ton of questions, and she always responded quickly and never made we feel like I was a bother. If there was something outside of catering that we need assistance with, she would gladly point us in the right direction or generously help us herself. She gained our trust very quickly through her above & beyond customer service, kindness, and sweet personality. Marla’s work is truly magic. On our wedding weekend, Marla made herself available for any last-minute preparations we needed her help with. On the wedding day, she was there when we needed her, and she was working behind the scenes to ensure our wedding day went smoothly. She made sure to touch base with us once in a while to make sure we were doing all right and just be excited with us. At this point, she’s been such an integral part of our big day, we were definitely sharing our joy with her. Also, we are happy to say that our dog was included in our big day. It’s so sweet to know that he was there with us as well. The hospitality staff at Hotel Maya were kind an attentive, starting with my bridal party in the get ready room and all the way through dinner service by checking if my husband and I needed anything. We also heard a consistent compliment about our bartender from our guests: he was quick! They said even when the line was long, he whipped up drinks in a flurry. Even my father was really impressed! We are so glad our guests were taken care of by all the hotel staff. Thank you, Marla and the Hotel Maya staff, for everything. We are beyond grateful. You’ve made wedding planning less stressful and made our wedding dreams truly come true. Hotel Maya will ALWAYS have a special place in our hearts. Whenever we go eat at Fuego, the hotel restaurant, we will be sure to visit our ceremony space to lovingly reminisce and pay a visit to Marla. We recommend any couple to consider Hotel Maya for their wedding venue as we had such a wonderful experience working with them.

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!

We booked Paracel for our wedding tea ceremony & reception venue, and Matthew for our MC & DJ. We were thoroughly satisfied with our experience with the venue & Matthew. When set up, Paracel was such an beautiful venue to have our wedding reception. We would say the space was just right for about 200 guests with plenty of room for our other vendors to setup, including an outdoor patio. However, it would be good to know that the projector screen is right behind the stage which did prevent us having a slideshow as our sweetheart table arch backdrop did obstruct it. We opted for the Platinum Plate Menu & even had an opportunity to try the food before booking. According to our guests, they enjoyed the presentation of Lobster Fruit Salad. Other highlights included the House Special Lobster Garlic Noodles & Peking Duck with Steamed Bun. They thought the food was delicious & plentiful. The bar being indoors & close to the tables made it very convenient for many of our guests to easily grab a drink. Matthew was accommodating & was easy to communicate with throughout the planning. He also gave us suggestions and recommendations based on his experience. Matthew as a DJ & MC was also phenomenal. He exceeded our expectations with keeping our guests engaged & entertained. Despite his limited Vietnamese, his father was also there that night to assist with translating for our Vietnamese guests. Matthew really knew how to read the room & hype people up. As the night was coming to a close & the dance floor opened up, he seemed to know what music to play to keep the crowd going & even concluded the night with a special moment for us. Paracel has such an amazing package for a wedding reception. You would be hard pressed to find an experience as good as Paracel in the area. We highly recommend Paracel for your wedding or next event!

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!

We recently had our rehearsal dinner and wedding at The Westin Anaheim Resort, and both events exceeded our expectations! The rehearsal dinner took place on the Jewel Floor, a private rooftop space with an amazing view of Disneyland. The food was absolutely spectacular and set the perfect tone for our wedding weekend. The wedding venue itself is exceptional in every way. It's a brand new, luxurious, and spacious space that felt like a dream come true. Every single staff member, from the bartenders to the servers, security, front desk, and valet, was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive. We opted for passed hors d'oeuvres, a plated dinner, and late-night bites, and everything was delicious. The service was prompt, and the quality of the food was outstanding. The bar package offered great options, and the bartenders were quick and made delicious drinks. One of the highlights of our experience was working with Shannon, the banquet manager. She made the entire wedding planning process easy and smooth, taking a lot of stress off our plates. Her expertise and enjoyable personality were invaluable, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to work with. The accommodations at The Westin were also incredibly comfortable. We and our guests felt well taken care of throughout our stay. Overall, The Westin Anaheim Resort is truly the perfect choice for a dream wedding. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an exceptional venue and experience!!

The Anaheim Hotel was an amazing venue for our wedding weekend! We held our entire wedding weekend (Welcome Dinner, Ceremony and Reception) at the Anaheim Hotel and are so glad we chose to work with them. The poolside Cabana added a touch of elegance and allowed our guests to mingle in a relaxed atmosphere. Our guests enjoyed watching the Disneyland fireworks poolside as the night wound down. The Veranda Lawn is a beautiful space for a ceremony and the ballroom is a fun space for a reception - spacious enough for our large guest list, yet intimate enough for heartfelt moments. Jamie from the hotel was great to work with planning our weekend. She is detailed, accommodating and has an upbeat attitude. She listened to our preferences and made our dreams come true. A short example of her attention to detail and care: our wedding day was hotter than forecasted and on the day of, she asked if we would want to set up umbrellas for our guests to keep them comfortable. She had them set up on short notice, making sure they were placed them exactly as we had asked. That attentive and professional attitude extended to the staff, they anticipating our needs before we even asked. The hotel's ability to host both the ceremony and reception made planning so much easier. The food was quite good, nearly every guest completely finished their plate. The bar team is stellar, everybody enjoyed their drinks. If you are looking for a beautiful space that will seamlessly host your wedding, look no further. Bonus: Having guest rooms on-site made the entire weekend convenient for our out-of-town family and friends.
