As a wedding planner, I get to see the ins and outs of so many different venues, so I know how to spot the best. From beach weddings to industrial, blank slate venues, this list of SoCal wedding venues is exactly what you need!


1. Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach

If you’re looking for a SoCal hotel wedding venue with the ballroom of your dreams, the Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach is for you! It is the perfect combination of hotel, view, and amenities. Upon lobby entry, there is a view of the golf course with a view of the ocean in the background. The staff is so easy to work with, and they make their couples and fellow vendors feel at home. There’s nothing better than a very accommodating venue!


2. Morgan Estate

The ceremony space at this SoCal winery wedding venue has one of the most stunning views of Temecula that I have ever seen in my entire life. The reception space is absolutely beautiful, too, with delicious food to top it all off! This is another venue with exceptional staff, which can make or break your day!

3. The Harper

For more of a blank slate, industrial wedding venue vibe, you have to check out the Harper. It’s impossible to narrow down the best thing about this SoCal wedding venue. The staff, the views, the food, the groom suite and bridal suite - this place has it all! It’s truly one of the most impressive venues in Orange County.

I get to work here about once a month, which is so special to me. The staff is so kind and makes sure that my team and I are taken care of - which I know they will do for you if you choose them for your wedding!


4. Maison des Oliviers

This private estate is perfect for any and all garden wedding dreams. The owner is an angel, and has truly given her all into this venue. This garden transports you into the south of France. The vine climbing the building, the travertine accents - everything about this estate is so stunning. It is a do-it-yourself type venue, but with the right wedding planner, this venue transforms into the most intimate setting I’ve ever seen.


5. Ole Hanson Beach Club

Where are my beach wedding couples at? The Ole Hanson Beach Club is exactly what you need for a SoCal beach wedding venue! It is seriously a beach oasis in the middle of San Clemente. The staff is amazing, the food is incredible, and there are so many different little things about Ole Hanson that are so picture worthy and special. The building is a relatively blank slate, but your ceremony will be on the lawn with the most incredible ocean view ever. It’s seriously stunning. 


Now you know everything I know about the best SoCal wedding venues! There’s something for everyone in this stunning location, and all you have to do is find what’s perfect for you.
