Buddy's is our favorite wine bar in Ventura -- not even close. Alexis always has the most creative and hip ideas happening at the bar, and it was the best to have our wedding there. A great place to play music and dance or just have a drink or order pizza for a reception -- all possible. Couldn't recommend any more.

I had a beautiful wedding and reception at The White House Beach Club. We brought a live band, a DJ to play after dinner and churros for an evening snack. The venue was gorgeous and it came together so well! The whole staff was so friendly and attentive. Nothing but great things to say about the venue and staff. Food was amazing! The appetizers were a big hit! The venue added a few nice to have few extra touches like the champagne welcome cart. The space is so great to throw a great wedding and reception!
