“We toured Miramar Theater by Wedgewood Weddings and it was clear from the start that Maddie and her team genuinely care about making each wedding special. They answered every question we had and paid attention to the details that mattered to us, which made us feel heard and valued throughout the process. The space itself is stunning. There were clean lines, timeless design, and a beautiful setting that didn't need much extra decoration. What impressed us the most was how informative and helpful the staff was without being pushy or overly complicated. We'd already toured another venue, but Miramar stood out because you could tell the team actually loves what they do. Miramar is a beautiful venue and I recommend that you book a tour and consider it for your wedding :)”

“From the moment we started planning with Kelly and Elizabeth at Huntington Harbour Yacht Club, we knew we were in great hands. They took our scattered notes and ideas and turned everything into a flawless event, we really didn't even need to hire a separate planner. The nautical setting was gorgeous and everything felt clean and organized from start to finish. What really stood out was how they thought ahead—the staff kept drinks flowing, charged phones, tracked belongings, and even surprised us with something thoughtful right when we needed it. Kelly and Elizabeth also made sure our parents felt taken care of all night long. We honestly can't say enough about how smoothly the day ran thanks to their hard work and attention to detail.”
