    Los Altos History Museum was the perfect venue for our early summer wedding! We love that they allow you to be creative with the space and make it your own. We had the ceremony in front of their large oak tree, reception in the open courtyard, and cocktail area in between those two. The venue was large enough to have events in different sections of the property (ceremony, cocktail hours, reception, dance floor, photobooth, dessert/coffee area, etc.) throughout the night while accommodating our 140 guests without feeling cramped, but still had the cozy feel. There is so much greenery around the property that photos from all angles turned out beautifully. Additionally, though the space is open, the sun was never an issue for us or our guests.  Lisa from LAHM was so easy to work with, clear with instructions, and responsive/patient with any questions I had throughout the planning process all the way to the day of the wedding.

    This past year I got to photograph a wedding at Los Altos History Museum. I was excited to work here and it did not disappoint. Los Altos History Museum is a special venue. The first thing that captures your attention is the charming restored house and beautiful garden setting and amazing trees that surround the property. It’s a wedding photographers dream venue. The Staff did a awesome job at executing the couples vision and making their day seamless. A great venue to work with and from my perspective, a great venue to have your dream wedding at!
