Open and Welcoming Venue
My wife and I got married at IUCC and couldn't be happier about that decision. We wanted to get married in Orange County so our guests would not have to travel a great distance, but all the venues here are so expensive! So when we found this gem in Irvine we jumped on it! We loved the unique space of the geodesic sanctuary and the complementary reception hall. Both were light and bright and we were able to decorate them the way we wanted. The location was also great because we could take pictures on the lake next door while our family and friends were enjoying appetizers and cocktails on the patio before the reception started. We were pleasantly surprised that the officiant was included, but as a same gender couple were worried about getting married by a pastor. When we found out that Pastor Sarah and the IUCC church had a long history of fighting for equal marriage we were impressed and even happier about our selection. And it was great how she took the time to meet with us and really hear our story so that it felt like the whole ceremony was so personal. Our wedding was perfect! Thank you!
Beautiful and affordable church setting
Irvine United Congregational Church was a wonderful choice for our wedding venue. Their communication style was positive and made the planning process smooth and efficient. The quality of their work and value provided was great - they were extremely flexible and accommodating to our needs. They were easy to work with and paid close attention to the beautiful details, both inside and out, that made our special day so memorable. We highly recommend this lovely venue to any couple looking for a fantastic wedding experience.
The perfect wedding at iUCC
I got married at IUCC and held the reception there as well. I loved the space, it wasn't "too churchy" and the pastor recognized that we aren't either and really focused on making the ceremony be about us. Our guests commented on how personalized it was and it meant a lot to me that she took the time to get to know us. We liked that we could choose our own caterer and decorate the hall the way we wanted it. Another cost saver! It was a really good deal compared to everywhere else we looked and we didn't feel like we had to compromise anything. Thank you IUCC!
Unforgettable Day!
Thanks, IUCC! Our wedding day was absolutely magical and the IUCC team was awesome to work with while planning everything. After our first tour we had a clear idea of how to set up our decorations and tables. Since we were on a budget we really loved how easy it was to bring in our own decorations, food, and drinks making the reception our own super simple. The church was a good location and super easy to get into. The sanctuary is beautiful and we really liked how the round layout of the sanctuary and Plumer Hall, it was a unique way to bring our guests together and everyone had the best time! The whole day flew by!! I’d def think about booking Plumer Hall again for a bday or graduation party!
