My husband and I knew we wanted to get married but did not want to plan the actual wedding…and we are so lucky that we found the company Wedgewood. With so many venues to choose from, we got married at The Sanctuary in Long Beach and when I say our wedding was stunning, I mean it. We will cherish the day forever. Wedgewood made the entire process so incredibly easy, it almost felt too good to be true. But it was true! All we had to do was make the final decisions and our team took care of the rest of it. We showed up, got married, had an amazing party with amazing food and drinks and had the time of our lives. Not only did we love our wedding, our guests loved it as well. We got so many compliments on how beautiful our decor was and how smoothly everything went. As a bride, I was so nervous about our timeline going the way it was supposed to, but our wedding coordinator, Fumi made sure everything was on track. Fumi made our day so much better and my bridal party loved her. She made me believe that the most important thing was that I married my husband. I highly recommend Wedgewood Weddings. There are no loopholes, their pricing is reasonable and you are able to express yourself freely with them and plan your perfect wedding day. Everyone on their team was no kind to us and make our day so much easier and made us feel so so special. I am so grateful for Wedgewood. Book with them!!

When we started wedding planning, we knew finding a “one stop shop” sort of venue was going to be our best bet. We toured a couple venues from another well known company and some Wedgewood properties, and ultimately decided that Wedgwood Aliso Viejo best fit our needs. From our first meeting all the way to the day of (16 months later), we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Breanna and Sierra were exceptional planners and their meetings with us leading up to the wedding really made us feel like we didn't have anything to worry about. I’m a very type-A person and I never felt like I was asking for too much. We had all of our questions answered and had pleasant interactions with Kimberlyn as well. On the day of, Sierra, Lily and DJ Rachel were extremely attentive, communicative and overall on top of everything. I appreciate that we were able to call, text and email any questions we had at any time and heard back from the Wedgewood team in a very timely manner. Of all of our wedding week events, we had the least concerns about the wedding day and everything ran smoothly and to our liking. We have been receiving tons of compliments about how the staff were running a tight ship and that we didn't have to worry about anything because it all was taken care of. I am very big on customer service and we have not heard a single negative comment from any of our guests. The only hiccups with our wedding were issues with outside vendors that the Wedgewood team helped us address. The vibes were great, the food was amazing, we even had good compliments about the bartender being very cool and making amazing drinks. We really could not have imagined our special day any better than it turned out and we are so incredibly grateful to all of the Wedgewood Aliso Viejo for making it all happen!

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.

I wish everyone could experience the joy of getting married at the Lido House! The customer service was truly exceptional. Brian went above and beyond to help make our day special. They offered a complimentary suite upgrade on the night of our wedding, as well as the night before. They honored all our various food preferences. Brian offered to have multiple meetings to discuss all of the details. When I was sick and had to miss the menu tasting, they put the whole selection in to-go containers and included tea and cough drops in the bag. They offered complimentary car service to the beach for our sunset photos. I could go on and on! I cannot recommend the Lido House more highly.

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 our wedding at Meadowlark and it was fantastic! From the moment I met Amber and Hannah, I knew that I was making the right choice. They were so nice and pleasant to work with. They made our wedding day vision come to life. The wedding package we chose was budget friendly. I love that the package comes with not only just the ceremony and your food, but also your wedding cake! Truly a one-stop shop venue, and I love that! Everything ran so smoothly. My guest commented on how lovely everything looked and how well the food tasted. They even gave us a beautiful set of engraved wine glasses as an unexpected and lovely gift. I would definitely recommend them for your big day!

The Den has such amazing communication. Tara, the owner, gets back to you right away, which is a refreshing change from the week-long response times at most venues. She is extremely friendly, kind, and goes above and beyond when it comes to accommodating, communicating, and providing clear instructions. The space is gorgeous and breathtaking - I have hosted a few events here and this is definitely my go-to venue. The detailed decor and immaculate cleanliness of the space keep me coming back every time. Tara also includes a vendor list of trustworthy professionals she works with, truly wanting your day to go smoothly. She is extremely accommodating and allows you to have a venue tour prior to booking. The rentals and decorations she already has inside make it a breeze to easily curate the perfect event without having to bring in too much yourself. I have been hosting events at this venue since the beginning of 2025, and Tara consistently exceeds my expectations. I can't imagine hosting my industry events anywhere else - we love The Den!

I was the planner for my daughter's wedding at the Hyatt Newport. From start to finish, we were all thrilled with the coordination throughout by Hayley, the service staff the day of, and the venue. The ceremony in the Amphitheater was lovely, the cocktail hour followed there, and the dinner reception for 100 guests was in the Garden Patio. The Garden Patio was simply perfect. Trees and plants surrounded the area; lights were strung across the patio ... the space felt like a magical oasis all their own to enjoy with their friends and family. Simply beautiful. The firepit was an added bonus, enjoyed all evening with smores kits available for our guests at the end of the reception. Hyatt offered an amazing wedding package, just about everything we needed they were able to provide on-site, which made coordinating with one person for everything quite easy. Having the reception on site of where our guests could also stay was an added bonus as well. We even did the rehearsal luncheon on-site. It was truly a perfect space in Newport for guests to arrive and enjoy without having to drive. There were many great locations around the resort perfect for photos. Hayley was exceptional to work with. Communication was great. The food was amazing. The venue so beautiful. We can't say enough positive things about the Hyatt Newport and all who helped make their day so special. Our thanks to Hayley and her team.

A beautifully appointed ocean-view bridal suite and manicured gardens enhance the experience, creating a stunning and serene backdrop for your special day.

BEAUTIFUL venue that is hidden away - the experience starts from the drive TO the church as you turn into a breathtaking wide ocean view. The church is so beautiful we only needed two pillars and 2 arrangements for decorations. The only downside to decorations is there is a lot of limitations (they dont allow anything on the aisle, not even a white aisle runner) BUT the church is so gorgeous on it's own. Setta the wedding coordinator is very professional and kind and really helps day of to coordinate the timing of everything. She has a very calm demeanor which is helpful during a hectic day. Pastor Scott officiated and he was very kind and accomodating. The majority of our guests were born and raised in southern california and remarked how they never heard or been to this church and they were amazed at how beautiful it was. Many commented how they felt they were in europe! It also was just the PERFECT summer day in mid-June- warm but a slight breeze with perfect blue skies. We had parasols for the girls and they came in handy to provide some shade while taking pictures! The reception offering is a little expensive and they only provide the space - no tables/charis and only beer/wine allowed and there is a curfew - either 9 or 10pm. This would have been a perfect place to do a reception as well but with all the resctrictions and planning required to do it there we opted out of it but I really wish we could have! Their package includes day of coordinator, you must use their officiant, an amazing organist, a bridal and groomsmen suite, a meeting with the officiant, and a rehearsal run through.

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
