Plaza De Magdalena 

4.5

San Juan Capistrano, CA
  • Up to 229 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $10,000

Sundried Tomato American Bistros & Catering brings you Plaza de Magdalena, a stunning event venue in the heart of downtown San Juan Capistrano. This picturesque location provides many configurations and options to choose from. Enter through the traditionally-designed, wrought iron gates into a refreshing, open-air courtyard with serene waterfall and twinkling market lights. Located halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego, Plaza de Magdalena is just steps from the Amtrak station and close to the 5 Freeway.

Plaza De Magdalena was a beautiful venue for our wedding. The reception space was lovely. While the ceremony area and bridal suite were a bit on the smaller side, the venue provided great value overall. The food was amazing, and they included all the tableware and linens, which was a nice perk. The venue coordinator, Patti, could have been more responsive which was the most frustrating part about choosing this venue. However, the rest of team still did a great job making our day special. The groom's dressing area was a bit unconventional, being in a storage room, but they made it look nice. Overall, we're so glad we went with Plaza De Magdalena - it was an affordable option with a beautiful reception space and exactly what we needed.

Fish Tank Capo 

5.0

Capistrano Beach, CA
  • Up to 100 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,000

The Fish Tank was previously a warehouse used for storing products (big things) for our business. But now it's now been re-purposed as a space where people can come together for Community, Creativity, and Collaboration. A unique venue for art, music, meetings, events, studio space, recording, video...anything that fits with our mission of community, creativity and collaboration. Modern décor and art all around the walls give a cool vibe to this event space. Five short-throw projectors are available for video, presentations, visual effects, etc. Our Sonos sound system can be used to play your own music with surround sound. The full immersive experience with visuals and audio is truly amazing!

I could write a book about how wonderful this venue is! A truly hidden gem in the historic art district in Dana Point. What makes it even more amazing are Cynthia and her husband Doug! Cynthia helped me coordinate and plan our event for my son’s Baptism reception and she brought the ideas in my head to life!! I’ve been disappointed with coordinators before. Cynthia is amazing! She took all of my stresses away and eased my mind with her guidance, experience, and professionalism. And one of the most important things to mention is that she worked with the budget I had to create that wonderful evening for us. She and Doug truly treat you like family. And they treated all of our family during the event - like family! Making sure everything was set up perfectly. And that everyone was enjoying themselves! I can’t thank her enough and would absolutely recommend her catering services as well as this venue to everyone! Venue: Absolutely unique! They have projectors throughout the venue that can display moving backgrounds or photo montages throughout your event. So it can feel like you’re in an underwater aquarium, or NY in the 50s, or in a peaceful forest! They can also display different backgrounds or photo montages in different areas of the venue. Music: they have speakers throughout the venue and also outside so you can give them a playlist or even sync your Bluetooth so you can have your own playlist going. I suggested to Doug the “vibe” I was going for - Nora Jones meets Michael Buble meets Indie Arie. He definitely delivered!! You can also hire a DJ or a live band, however that may decrease your space usage for the venue. So it just depends on how many guests you want to have. Dance floor: they can stage the dance floor almost anywhere in the venue! Again, depending on how many guests you have. Outdoor patio: cute stylish outdoor patio area with fire pit! Our guests loved lounging in this area. Flower arrangements: Cynthia showed me several examples and were exactly what I envisioned! Food and beverages: SO delicious! Cynthia has a website of her catering services and menu options to choose from, or you can let her know the type of food you’re thinking of having and she can totally work with you! With her expertise, you can rest easy that she will deliver. We chose to have food served buffet style, but hors d’ouvres were butler In terms of beverages, we had water and tea station as well as a coffee and hot tea station. There is also the cutest little bar on the patio of the venue where Cynthia let us purchase our own alcohol to be served to our guests! And our bartender was awesome - professionally courteous yet super friendly and down to earth. The wait staff - professional and courteous! Very kind to all of our guests. Parking: There is a lot across the venue where guests can park and a few parking spaces right next to the venue. BONUS: We were able to drop off materials we needed to set up for the evening of the event a week prior! Depending on if the venue has events going on, Cynthia let me store most of our materials there a few days before the event which is such a time saver and stress reliever!! I was able to bring in the set up for our DIY photobooth, the frames that we were to display throughout the venue, and the beverages we purchased for the event as well as the cake! I highly recommend this venue and will definitely contact them again for future events!!

Speakeasy On State 

5.0

Redlands, CA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $2,500

• COME TAKE A STEP BACK INTO THE CHARM AND GLAMOUR OF THE LATE 1800s
• Finished in 1899, the Columbia building was the last building built on the first block of E. State Street and has been utilized for gatherings both large and small. Located on Redland's iconic State Street, this historic gem has been closed for use since 1948. Speakeasy on State offers 4000 square feet of elegance, mixed with beautiful hard woods, raw exposed brick, and the finest period specific details - found nowhere else in town. Proudly representing the heartbeat of downtown Redlands, Speakeasy on State boasts two large gathering rooms, each with their own distinct feel, a bridal suite, restrooms, and a preparation kitchen. Opposite the entrance, Speakeasy on State lets out into the charming City of Redlands Alley Park, perfect for outdoor socializing.

The Speakeasy was the perfect place for our wedding reception. The venue is delicate and classy, but with a bouncy sturdy dance floor to meet all our needs! The staff was incredible, helping us turn our dream ideas into beautiful realities. They only choose to network with good, reliable, and relatable vendors, so every part of our big day felt intentional and personal. I would recommend the Speakeasy to anyone looking for an event venue, and I hope to hire them again for other events in the future!

The Estate OC 

5.0

Orange, CA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $13,000

Built in 1881, The Estate has been designated a historical site by the city of Orange. Seemingly untouched by time, this extraordinary property combines the natural landscape, rustic charm, and a dash of modern touch to become the picture-perfect backdrop for your dream wedding!

My husband and I got married at the Estate 9.28.24 and I cannot begin to express how incredible of an experience it all was from beginning to end. The journey began last November when I started researching venues. The Estate popped up on my instagram and at a quick glance it looked like everything I was looking for. I really wanted a sort of “backyard” wedding but with a lot of personality. I requested to be sent more info and shortly after I got a call from Jovan who gave me a brief over view of what they offer. Now right off the bat it just seemed too good to be true. Ceremony and reception in one spot, ample parking, bride and groom getting ready suites, we could supply alcohol for the bar, DJ provided, catering included, super reasonably priced. We then booked a tour and I told myself to keep my mind open as this was going to be our very first tour of any potential venues. Well it took all about 20 minutes before I knew there was no way I’d be leaving without locking in a date. So then we locked in the date! Any question I had would be immediately responded to, Mimi and Jovan were totally on it. Then the big day finally came and everything was absolutely perfect. Decor is exactly where it needed to be, the flow of the ceremony was flawless, the DJ knew all the right ques, Yanel was SO attentive to my husband and I, always asking if we needed anything at all or bringing us a drink. I truly can say my day went perfectly without any issues. Like I went into it expecting a small hiccup, I mean something is always bound to happen that’s life. But nothing! It was all perfect!! I cannot recommend this venue enough. Mimi, Jovan, Yanel, Rigo were all just the most amazing human beings and I’m sad it’s all over. The venue is just stunning on its own and has TONS of picture opportunities. My photographer said it was his favorite he’s ever worked at because of that. Don’t wait, book a tour now. Their amazing team will make sure your day is perfect.

The Den 

5.0

Costa Mesa, CA
  • Up to 40 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,800

Step into The Den, where the charm of the Amalfi Coast and the rustic beauty of Tuscany come to life against the coastal backdrop of Newport Beach. Our little Italian family is thrilled to welcome you to a unique space that transcends the ordinary. Less than one mile from the coast, it is a home away from home on the California Riviera. The Den is more than an event venue and creative studio. It's a celebration of community, inspired by the warmth and togetherness found in the heart of Italian family gatherings. Our 1,400-square-foot indoor space is meticulously styled to reflect the enchanting gardens of the Amalfi Coast. Sip a glass of Prosecco at our bar, find solace in the warmth of the fireplace in the garden lounge, and let the soothing melody of our fountain be the soundtrack as you mingle with loved ones between the olive trees. We look forward to sharing true essence of living la dolce vita with you!

Planning with Tara for both my bridal shower and our intimate micro-wedding reception was so effortless and both turned out so perfect! They have an in-house design team that created custom styling for this, with such pretty rentals and settings. Their team was so nice and just a pleasure to work with, so knowledgeable with amazing vendor contacts (which is how we found our photographer)! Thank you so, so much again for everything.

The Harper 

5.0

Costa Mesa, CA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $20,000

The Harper is an exciting venue project from Steve Fortunato and the Hospitality Collaborative team. Setting sights on the West Side of Costa Mesa, Fortunato has assembled an amazing team of designers and architects: interior designer Cliff Fong (principal of Matt Blacke Inc. and Galerie Half) and SALT Landscapes Architects. The space will offer a luxurious, comfortable, and stimulating atmosphere with the familiarity and romance of the European countryside accented with slight urban and contemporary features. The Harper will create the perfect backdrop for each event’s interpretation and personal touches.

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. Will continue to recommend the Harper to my clients who are looking for a beautiful, modern venue that will not disappoint!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Carlsbad Windmill is a beautiful venue and I loved having it as an all in one package. It made wedding planning so easy while still being customizable in many ways. We had an amazing day and everything went smoothly. As a bride, I did not have to worry about much. My only caution is that they can change the food options at their discretion so the food that is there when you book with them may have slight changes when you get to closer to your actual wedding date. This was not a big deal for us but they did change the filet mignon option to a sirloin. Other than that, every one we worked with there are kind and helpful. They are quick to answer any questions you have throughout the whole process. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to plan a wedding in the area. The ceremony, cocktail hour and reception are all on the same property/building which makes a very easy transition for the guests from place to place. Many beautiful options for photos on site as well along with the beach and flower fields close by.

Pond Oaks was the perfect wedding venue for my daughter's big day. From the moment we stepped onto the beautiful grounds, we were blown away by the elegance and charm of the space. The staff at Pond Oaks were absolutely fantastic - they dealt with almost everything, which was a huge lifesaver given that I only had 3 months to plan the entire wedding. They were responsive, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make sure the day was perfect. Our guests raved about the gorgeous setting and delicious food. I cannot recommend Pond Oaks highly enough for any couple looking for an exquisite, stress-free wedding experience.

Amazing food, personalized drinks that our guest LOVED and would not stop talking about, and let's not forget about the friendly service. Our wedding day could not have been possible without these guys. One of our favorite memories is watching the Union team members dancing, singing and having fun along with the 80's Flashpants band. A special shoutout to Amy, Union Kitchen and Taps event coordinator! Amy made the overwhelming process of wedding planning fun, easy and truly enjoyable. She is personable, down to earth, kind and radiated a calming presence that helped ease all the nerves that come along with a big event. Her knowledge and experience in the field shows and her passion for making our vision come to life was evident. She was extremely patient with us and took the time to understand our vision and then was able to execute it with such grace. Amy supported all of our menu changes and day of event schedule changes with ease. Anytime we had an idea, she made it happen.... no questions asked. She really went above and beyond to make this day perfect. We can't even begin to explain how blessed we were to have Amy be a part of our day! C&S Randolph
