Common Space Brewery and Tasting Room was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the fast and friendly communication leading up to the big day, to the incredible space, amazing value, and great beer, they exceeded our expectations in every way. They went above and beyond to fix the speakers and sound system when it wasn't working properly, and it was wonderful to be able to select the drink menu beforehand with a fun beer tasting before our big day. As beer aficionados, Common Space was the ideal spot to create the relaxed hangout vibe we were going for on our wedding day. It truly was a fun party!

The Torrance Marriott Redondo Beach was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the start, their communication was fast and responsive, which made the planning process a breeze. Danielle, our coordinator, was incredibly helpful, even coming down to assist with our rehearsal at the hotel. The staff went above and beyond, seamlessly transitioning our ceremony from outside to the indoor reception space. We were impressed by how everything has been recently remodeled - the space is clean, bright, and beautifully appointed. I highly recommend this location for any events, as the staff is great and the venue is truly top-notch.

Let’s start with the venue: Perfect space for 90-105 people. Roughly 9-10 tables of 10 people would occupy the space nicely. Entrance area has a nice space for your foyer table and a Photo Booth. Make sure your photo booth brings their own hotspot just Incase the WiFi is not up to their standards. The location is perfect in Redondo Beach. The actual venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and has a very nice view of the marina. The venue is well lit and the bar is situated nicely where your guest can mingle and have a drink without interrupting the flow of the room. The venue also came with our cake from Torrance bakery which was extremely delicious. The food: The food choices are amazing. Vida sat down with us and helped us cherry pick the meals we wanted to serve. The plates courses were too good to be true and the food was of the best quality and flavor. Highly recommend. The Coordinator: Vida was simply phenomenal at what she did. She made great recommendations and the day of made sure things were executed to my wife and I’s liking. Vida alone is enough to sell this venue for me. I can’t thank her enough. If you’re thinking about this venue for your event or wedding, stop by Vida’s office for a casual meet and greet and find out why this place is the perfect booking.

I loved working with Robin at the Sonesta Hotel. She was an excellent event manager who cared for all our needs and was very accommodating. I had one problem that had nothing to do with Robin or the Sonesta: Someone on the wedding coordinator's staff stole my wallet during the event. We hired Koral, the wedding coordinator, which was our responsibility. Overall, it was a beautiful venue with excellent hotel staff. I would recommend the Sonesta 100%.

We had our cocktail hour and wedding reception at the Portofino Hotel & Marina. There was quite a bit of staff turnover throughout the months during our planning process and we were nervous when our initial catering manager left, but we were so grateful to have Rain who took over as our catering manager and did an excellent job with our wedding reception! Rain stepped in seamlessly and was wonderful to work with. He took the time to understand our vision and provided suggestions to enhance our reception. His professionalism was evident in every interaction, which gave us great peace of mind during the planning process. Rain helped us create special details, like our signature drinks, and included thoughtful touches that really made our wedding day feel extra special. Thank you Rain!! We received numerous compliments from our guests about the delicious food and impeccable service. The venue itself is stunning and we couldn’t have picked a better reception location. I literally gasped when I walked into the ballroom and saw it all come together with the white linens, the gold chivari chairs, the white dance floor, the blue ocean and sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows. It was even more breathtaking as the sun was setting. Our reception was more beautiful than we could have imagined and I’m so glad we chose the Portofino!

We finally had our wedding at Playa Studios in Aug 2021, postponed from Aug 2020 by the pandemic. It's a fantastic space with high ceilings and an industrial modern feel, plus a touch of whimsy via the art work. The main event space is basically a black box and you can create any theme/layout you'd like, but it's also nice enough to use as-is if you want to keep things simple (we kept things simple). This is an indoor only space, but we were ok with that. They do have some outdoor space at the entry, but it's minimal. We loved that it wasn't a traditional wedding-type venue (think hotel ballroom), and that they host a variety of other events as well. We also appreciated the flexibility to bring in our own caterer. The venue has an extensive kitchen space included in the rental. Highly recommend you see the space for yourselves. The photos don't do it justice. It was the last on our list before we started looking, yet nothing could compare once we had our visit.

My family selected Jamaica Bay Inn because it was next to a small beach cove accessible from the Bermuda banquet room. We gathered for a Celebration of Life event and wanted to fly kites in memory of our beloved that passed away. Sayyora the Catering Manager was extremely efficient and flexible with the menu and my special request. Christina and the banquest staff were amazing. Christina had to leave the room to answer another clients questions and made sure another banquet person was in the room until she returned. The food was hot and plentiful. We selected the Buffet Pasta Station (1 with chicken and 1 with shrimp), baby greens salad, delicious fresh fruit. Accomodations were made for my request for a gluten free menu. I was in the hospitality business for 19 years for major hotels as a Catering Manger and Covention Services Manager and my critical eye can be hard to please. But I must say that the attention to detail was above and beyond. I would recommend Jamacia Bay at every opportunity. My family wants to return for a family reunion or just a family luncheon.

Los Angeles, CA
  • Up to 75 guests
  • Raw space

  • Starts at $1,800

The Velaslavasay Panorama is housed in the Union Theatre, a historic neighborhood cinema built in 1910 with a neon marquee, enchanting garden, vintage theatre space and 360-degree painted panorama viewing hall. Set in the historic West Adams District near Downtown LA, a visit to our panorama is complimented by a stroll through the Garden and Grounds reminiscent of the great 19th century pleasure gardens, featuring lush tropical plantings, a wide variety of succulents, a misting and meditation grotto, and a copper-roofed gazebo for reading and reflection. We are using Zola to promote our site as a rental venue for weddings and private events. To learn more, visit rental[dot]panoramaonview[dot]org and to ask questions or schedule a tour, contact event[at]panoramaonview[dot]org.

If what you are seeking is a truly magical venue, look no further than the Velaslavasay Panorama. My wife and I did not want to have the typical hotel conference hall wedding. We wanted to show our family from outside of LA a place that was meaningful to us and at the same time still impress our friends from LA. The Panorama is genuinely extraordinary, with several different areas that can be arranged to suit your celebration. Our guest list was about 70 people and it was the perfect size. We opted to have our main ceremony in the historic theatre, our cocktail reception with our bartender in the lush garden, our musician play in the gazebo, and our dinner in the large area outside the moon gate. This made it easy for pick ups and drop offs with our catering and table / chair / bar rental. Sara and Ruby from the Panorama were absolutely lovely to deal with and helped considerably with logistics before, during, and after the event.

Rosewolff Studio was a great choice for our wedding venue. The team had an easy going and responsive communication style, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. While the space itself was empty, allowing us to create our own vision, it was a nice blank canvas to work with. The team was accommodating, moving all of their furniture out to give us a clean slate, and they were flexible, allowing us to make changes to the booking as needed. Overall, the value and quality of Rosewolff Studio was excellent, and we're so glad we celebrated our special day there.

From the very beginning, Jennifer and Carina were patient, visionary, and incredibly kind. They guided us through every step of the planning process from the tasting to the final details with grace and professionalism.

We recently hosted a private event with a Bodega Wine Bar, and it could not have gone more perfectly! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and memorable. Atmosphere: The space was warm, stylish, and welcoming—exactly the kind of vibe we wanted. Having the entire bar to ourselves made it feel intimate yet lively, like our own hidden gem in the city. Service: The staff went above and beyond for us. Every guest felt cared for, and the service was friendly without ever being overbearing. They truly made us feel like family. Food & Drinks: The wine selection was incredible (so many options to please every palate), and the soju cocktails were just as impressive. The food was flavorful, and kept everyone happy well into the night. Event Experience: What stood out most was how easy the planning process was. The team at Bodega handled the details so smoothly—arranging the space, customizing the menu, and keeping everything on schedule. On the night of the event, we didn’t have to stress about a single thing. Overall, if you’re looking for a venue for a private party, corporate gathering, or any special celebration, a full buyout at Bodega Wine Bar is absolutely worth it. It’s the perfect mix of cozy, fun, and elevated.

I planned and designed a luxury dinner party at The United Theater on Broadway. We started the evening with a live harp violin performance on the stage, a tour of the spectacular theater, and then we sat for dinner in The Grand Lobby. Our guests were dazzled and transported to a magical place. Ricky and the events team could not have been more supportive. It was a pleasure to team up with them and my creative team.
