The Turnip Rose Reviews

I have and will continue to recommend the Turnip Rose!!! We had the most amazing experience with them. Professional, kind, reliable, communicative, beautiful, and for the price; you can’t go wrong.

They helped us have the absolutely most beautiful day!!! While planning we were in communication with Barbi and she was amazing!!! She’s spent about 2 decades in the industry and she knows what she’s doing!!! Our day of coordinator Aubrey was absolutely awesome and just a joy to work with, she made sure our day ran smoothly and was a blast to be around!!!

Now not only is this place gorgeous, and the service through the roof (with an awesome bartender might I add) the food!!! Oh my goodness was *chef’s kiss* This was one of the most important things for me and I’m so glad we weren’t disappointed, our expectations were surpassed!


I’m still hearing about how beautiful the wedding was and how much everyone enjoyed the food!!!

We as the bride and groom were able to enjoy ourselves because of the amazing team from Turnip Rose helping us and our guests had a wonderful time. We couldn’t have asked for more ♥️♥️♥️

Turnip Rose was an excellent place to have our wedding reception. Lori was super easy to work with and very helpful! Above all, the food was incredible and the drinks were well made! It is a great venue with lots of FREE parking. It is also a very pretty venue!

As a wedding photographer I have shot many weddings at this venue and I have to say it is a great choice that offers a beautiful ceremony site with large gazebo that can be decorated beautifully to enhance the visual appeal of your wedding. There is a long grassy aisle area that offers a beautiful backdrop to the procession photos as the wedding party walks down the aisle. There are an abundance of large pine trees surrounding the property that add a lot of ambiance and you forget you are in an industrial park. The trees have lighting that adds to the decor and feel of the outside area during events. They have 2 large rooms for getting ready. The smaller room for the groom and the larger room for the bride. They have nice mirrors you can use to shoot getting ready photos during the prep before the wedding.
The Gazebo is beautiful as a backdrop for family photos and it's great to go to the winery area across the street to take romantics of the bride and groom after the ceremony. They have a spacious indoor area for a reception with an outdoor patio that connects to the indoor space for dancing. But I have also shot there where they have all the table on the grass for receptions and a large dance floor placed over the grass area. This was also a very beautiful setup and worked out well. Overall it is a great venue in the heart of Orange County that has so much to offer . I highly recommend this venue for weddings and events.

Just got married here in February. It was a fantastic experience. Barbi and Audrey were super helpful in everything they did . Many of the guests enjoyed the food. They were very accommodating in meeting our needs, allowing us to bring boba into the venue, and having things done our way... I recommend this to anyone looking for a more affordable and good option. Great customer service.

The venue was absolutely on point!!! We kept in touch for a year and when we got there they had everything ready to go and it was a beautiful ceremony. This is a little unexpecting gem in the middle of a convention area, but the garden and patio are BEAUTIFUL! The coordinators are fantastic and made sure the wedding was a dream. Highly recommend Lori and Aubrey. Forgot my home made table chart and Lori last minute said don’t you worry, we will make it work and come up with a back up. She saved a lot of stress and tears.

What an AMAZING venue. Everything could not have been more perfect! We worked with Lori from the get-go, and she was so helpful, friendly, and prompt with her replies. She made everything so easy. Our wedding day was beyond magical, and everything was one place - parking, ceremony, food (which was DELICIOUS), dancing - all of it! Turnip Rose is literally the ideal place to have a wedding. It could not have been easier, more stress-free, and more beautiful. Thank you to EVERYONE who made our day possible. If you are on the fence about Turnip Rose, don't be. You won't regret a cent!

Lori & her team did such a fabulous job with this venue. She was so involved, kept us organized and made our day SO special. I had about 20 people message me saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to after.

Appetizers: amazing
Drinks: amazing
Dinner: amazing
Staff: amazing, kind

We can’t say enough good things about the turnip rose, we would not change one thing about our night! The convenient location, no noise ordinance, and the opportunity to make the venue whatever you want it to be. A+ from my husband & I!

We had our wedding at the Turnip Rose in July 2021 and it was perfect! I’m so thankful to Lori and to everyone else who helped with our day. We received so many compliments on the venue and especially the food! The food was so delicious. So many people mentioned how much they loved the passed food during cocktail especially the tomato soup shooters! Included in our food package were also super cute tuxedo chocolate covered strawberries that was passed out with the cake. Dinner was overall a fantastic meal, presentation and taste-wise. We also got late night snacks, sliders, which were a huge hit! The venue itself was pretty and turned out well in photographs! We held our wedding both indoors and outdoors. The ceremony space came out beautiful. I was a little bit concerned about the buildings around the area, but they were not an issue in pictures or in person. The indoor space for dinner was beautiful and the food + bar service was great. Dancing in the garden under the bistro lights through the rest of the night was the best. Just overall a great venue and I 100% recommend!

My wife and I just held our wedding reception at Turnip Rose over the weekend. We don't have a single complaint and the event exceeded our expectations. Our wedding coordinator, Barbi, was an absolute pleasure to work with. Planning a wedding in the midst of COVID comes with its challenges, but Barbi went above and beyond to make sure we had the party of our dreams despite the pandemic.

The eats were phenomenal. Several of our guests raved about the food, among them a cousin of mine who is a professional chef. Our photographer claimed it was some of the best food she's had at a wedding and she goes to weddings for a living. I'll list just a few of our food choices that got special mentions from our friends and family: chicken picatta, chicken flautas, gruyere sliders w/ fries, caesar salad.

The wait staff was seriously impressive. Everything was on time and the staff was attentive. The bartenders were friendly and quick. Our day-of coordinator, Aubrey, was on point and took care of everything and anything we needed on a moment's notice. The bridal suite was accommodating and came in clutch for keeping the younger kids somewhat contained and was a nice, quiet area for grabbing a quick breather before heading back out for more drinks and dancing.

The reception was executed flawlessly thanks to a collaboration between the Turnip Rose staff and our vendors. The whole venue looked absolutely beautiful. If I had to do it again, I'd go w/ Turnip Rose again. One of the best decisions of my life! Barbi, Aubrey, and the rest of the Turnip Rose crew: thank you, thank you, thank you!

We had been working with Barbi and the Turnip Rose for nearly two years up until our event. Despite going through a tough time themselves, they continued to support and accommodate us in every way possible. This speaks volume on their integrity and quality of service. The venue is private/beautiful, the food is amazing, ample parking, etc the list goes on. We are so pleased and grateful that we chose the Turnip Rose Promenade.

Choosing to be married here was BY FAR the best decision I made when it came to choosing my venue.

I visited so many venues in my search and nothing even came close.

4 major items stood out the most:

1. The service was impeccable.

The staff at the Turnip Rose are experienced and it SHOWS.

But, it didn’t feel like we were just another “event” to plan and carry out. They made us feel very special on our ‘big day’ and it was clear that we were in good hands! For starters, take a look at the wedding packages. They include SO MUCH that other venues don’t because they care about the EXPERIENCE and want people feeling happy!

2. We were amazed by the venue's flexibility to our needs and true dedication.

Lori Quinn was incredible leading up to our big day and of course, on the day of the event! She was always available to answer questions and go over pertinent details, making the planning experience collaborative and enjoyable. She promptly responded to our phone calls and emails throughout the process. I felt 100% confident going into the wedding day that she and the Turnip Rose staff would deliver. The outcome: They went above and beyond!

3. The food was amazing.

Many wedding venues serve mediocre catered food. This is not the case at this venue! The Turnip Rose has a catering company and restaurant. They serve gourmet food that your guests will LOVE!

4. This is a beautiful place to be married!
From the moment we toured the venue, we fell in love with the place. It offers flexibility for an outdoor ceremony and indoor space for the reception.

I would recommend The Turnip Rose a million times over.

The wedding day went off without a hitch and our guests gave us SO MANY compliments on the wedding, the food, and their experience! Many said it was THE BEST wedding they’ve ever attended.

We are SO LUCKY to have found this venue. The staff is very dedicated, and they are simply GREAT people! Thank you for the most magical wedding! We cannot thank you enough.

I really love the look and feel of this location! Everyone was so helpful even to provide me several quote options. I love the fact that you get in door and outdoor space.

My husband and I got married at Turnip Rose on 02.15.2020. We had been engaged for two years and had been working with Turnip Rose for about a year and a half. Barbi was our point of contact throughout the entire process. She made the process very clear, easy, and transparent; which, both my husband and I truly appreciated.

Prior to booking with Turnip Rose, my husband and I had viewed a LOT of venues. Turnip Rose is a hidden gem. It's nestled between industrial complexes in Costa Mesa. However, when at the venue itself, you easily forget due to the lush grounds, beautiful gazebo, and market lights that transport you into this beautiful, romantic setting.

Besides the beauty, one of the main reasons my husband and I chose to go with this venue is because of how inclusive its pricing is and because of how delicious the food was! I truly do think going with this venue made the wedding planning process significantly less stressful for me!

After our wedding, our family and friends have done nothing but RAVE about how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was. Brandi (our coordinator) did an incredible job! Both families and the wedding party were highly impressed by her professionalism and ability to keep us all on track throughout the entire day. Additionally, Brandi was responsible for setting up all of our decorations the day of, and I gave her a lot of stylistic freedom on where certain items should go and she managed to decorate the venue beautifully!

Additionally, the servers and bartenders went above and beyond throughout our wedding! My family commented that the servers were constantly checking in to see if there was anything they needed. They also discussed how they left the venue with such a full, happy stomach by the end of the night! They made all our guests feel extremely welcomed and cared for throughout the entire evening. It's been over a week since we've gotten married and I still have family and friends calling me to tell me how much they loved and appreciated the service and the food!

Throughout this wedding planning process, my husband and I both agreed that the ceremony is for the couple while the reception is really for the guests. I think Turnip Rose does a fantastic job ensuring that the balance is met. Their professionalism, eye for detail, and welcoming staff made our wedding perfect in our eyes and we are beyond grateful to the venue by their ability to make our event so memorable for our guests.

Thank you again, Turnip Rose! We are so thankful for you all making our day an incredible one!

Thank you Lori and Maggie for making our wedding so wonderful! The whole experience was amazing and Lori truly works with you to make the day and process leading up to the day perfect. Maggie was our day planner and truly took care of us. I was 22 weeks pregnant at our wedding and she knew the moments I needed to hide a little. Truly a great team at Turnip Rose!

There are no words to express my gratitude towards the Turnip Rose for making my wedding day incredible. From start to finish we were given top of the line service. Our coordinator Barbi is top notch and not only went above and beyond on our big day, she also said yes to pretty much all of our requests.

The food was to die for! Everyone was raving about how exceptional it was and how everything came out hot! The dome service was superb. The filet and fish cooked to perfection. We wanted a custom buffalo chicken appetizer and Turnip Rose made 4-5 different buffalo appetizers for us to try to make sure we picked the one we wanted. They hosted food tastings before the wedding and they were wonderful because we got to try everything however it was hard to pick because all of the food is so good!

The venue looked spectacular and it was nice having all the rentals, linens, etc taken care of by the Turnip Rose. Not one thing was out of place.

In short, it’s hard to compare any other venue to the Turnip Rose. It will be hard to beat. I give it 10 out of 10 stars!!

If you want the most EXCEPTIONAL wedding experience you can ever imagine then Celebrations by Turnip Rose is the place for you!!! We just had our wedding ceremony and reception on March 18, 2018 and it went above and beyond our expectations! I had already read many of the amazing reviews here but I cannot express the MAGNITUDE of gratitude I have for this company and their ENTIRE staff!!!
LORI QUINN was our wedding coordinator from months before our wedding date. She is absolutely wonderful in every way!!! Any questions I had at anytime I would send her emails and she would respond to each and everything I asked her about regarding our wedding day. She was just a phone call away as well. Everything was well planned, well organized and the all the staff were so professional, efficient and considerate. My guests were telling me that it was the BEST wedding and reception they have ever been to!!! I can go into all the details that made this day so special but I would end up writing a book!
The venue itself is truly beautiful! The outdoor courtyard area had water fountains and a grande staircase where we had our ceremony. The atmosphere was so classy and unique. The indoor reception venue did not look like your average hotel ballroom, it has a bar with a classy cocktail area and then doors that open into a reception hall that made our guests feel like a huge amazing party was about to happen! The lighting was amazing, all our vendors (DJ, photo/video team) loved our venue and they were treated like royalty as well! Our "day of" wedding coordinator, JEN BELZA, was always by my side the entire day asking if there was anything I needed or anything that she could do for me. Jen was so calm and helpful and I appreciate everything she did for us! All the staff were amazing!

My now husband Tanner and I had our wedding here on Friday night (yes I am writing this early because I am in love with this place) and we really can't say enough wonderful things about the team and the venue. I am literally overwhelmed with gratitude! For starters, working with Barbi was a breeze. She is just so down to Earth, available, understanding, and funny! She makes the process feel completely natural from the beginning. You will wish she was family!! The grounds are beautiful and make for the BEST wedding. There is almost too much too say for one review but I will start by saying, GO THERE AND CHECK OUT THE PROPERTY! The space is perfect. The lawn is massive with a beautiful white gazebo and large contemporary rocks that make for unique pictures. The lounge area outside is so chic! They also bring heaters outside for guests who want to utilize that space and hang out near the cocktail tables. The bar is inside and the room has so much space for everyone to get their drinks. They set up an espresso/tea bar near these huge light-box pictures that you can bring in custom to add to the decor. Everyone LOVED being able to see pictures from our engagement shoot lit up in the bar area. Such a unique touch! The reception room is spacier than nearly all the venues we toured. It never felt stuffy! The reception room also has large french-style doors that open. The bathrooms are beautiful and offer several stalls so that there are never any lines! Anyone that has been in line for a bathroom at a wedding knows how annoying this is! The bridal suite and groom suite are AMAZING! Again, much more spacious than any venue we had previously toured. I just love this place. The food was DELICIOUS. Jen was my day-of coordinator and she is AMAZING! Amanda worked with me the day-of too and she is so sweet and patient as well! AMAZING TEAM!

Our wedding of 250 guests was held at Turnip Rose's Promenade and Gardens location. We worked closely with Barbi, who is the world's best Salesperson. She was so easy to work with from the beginning, and really helped accommodate for EVERY situation that arose. We had so many issues with unpredictable weather for our big day, affecting our rentals, food, etc. However, Barbi manned her team so well, and we didn't have ANY issues on the day of. The staff is incredible, and are so amazing at what they do. They are truly worth EVERY penny we spent. Yes, a large chunk of our wedding budget went into our venue, but having them provide phenomenal silver platter food, service, chairs, dessert, alcohol, and much more, we believe they were worth every penny. We highly recommend Turnip Rose as your ceremony venue. Trust me. You will NOT be disappointed.

This place is AWESOME!!! Special thanks to Barbi who really took care of us from rhe beginning of the preparation til the end ( the week after the wedding)! The service is the best, THEY HAVE EXCELLENT FOOD!! We had 180 guests plus vendors. They came from different states and Philippines, and everybody LOVED THE FOOD!!! The garden is really beautiful day and night! I definitely recommend this place.

Chrissy and her team at Turnip Rose Celebrations were amazing! Chrissy was so helpful with all of the planning from food selection and tastings to decoration ideas, and especially the day of our wedding reception. Everything we planned went perfectly. If anything went wrong, we didn’t notice and neither did our guests. The food was incredible! All of our guests kept commenting on how delicious the salmon and mushroom risotto was And those chocolate covered strawberries…omg. My husband and I are big foodies and we were impressed. The venue was spectacular. Celebration used to be a night club so it already had the lights, dancefloor, and plenty of space for seating. I still have friends telling me how awesome our reception at Celebrations was. We are so happy that we made the chose Celebrations. Our day went exactly as we both hoped it would thanks to their incredible team. They went way above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. At the end of the night our limo was running late so one of venue managers and her staff waited with my husband and I until the limo arrived. Thank you for taking care of my husband and I from the planning all the way to the end of the night. You guys are the best.

We recently got married and had our reception and ceremony at the Turnip Rose Promenade and Gardens. This was the first place we went to after we got engaged and came back to book this as our venue because they were just so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. On that day our Turnip Rose planner made sure all details were taken care of, especially timing. I can't thank them enough for making the day 100% stress free and just as beautiful as I imagined. The reviews from our guests also matched what we thought, everyone said that it was such an elegant wedding and cannot stop talking about how amazing the food was that night. Thank you Turnip Rose staff!

My wife and I had our wedding at the Turnip Rose Promenade and Gardens. Turnip Rose made our wedding stellar. They made our wedding day stress-free. Turnip Rose is an elegant, highly professional, and incredibly well managed company and the Promenade and Gardens is a picturesque wedding venue. The staff knows what they're doing. The food is out of this world. Book your wedding here! You won't regret it for a moment.

Barbi & Amanda were sensational!!!!
From start to finish they did not miss a detail. The venue was gorgeous and ALL of our guests commented that they had never had such delicious food at a wedding. A great deal too which included a delicious cake from Creative Cakes and the best tuxedo strawberries!

This review is for the tasting. The food was beyond what we expected. Very good quality. And there was soooooo much to taste. We booked that very night.

We had our wedding at the Turnip Rose Promenade & Gardens location in October 2014 and had THE BEST experience. From start to finish, working with the staff at this venue and having our wedding there was amazing. Barbi was our contact throughout the experience and she was great to work with, very responsive to questions and really a nice person. Every time we were on-site the rest of the staff was equally as amazing. The Turnip Rose is a catering company and so the food at our wedding did not disappoint, it was one of the highlights of the night and I am still getting compliments from my guests on how amazing the food was. The venue itself was also beautiful, we had our ceremony outdoor in their garden area which made a lovely backdrop for all of our photos and then we had cocktail hour outside and our reception indoors. The location is tucked away, but easy to find once you know where you're going, so you have complete privacy and easy and free parking. Our day-of coordinator, Amanda was also great and really kept things moving and helped ensure we had everything that we needed. From stocking our bride & groom's rooms with our favorite drinks, to sending us off with a basket of treats at the end of the night, she had everything covered. Some of our favorite things that we had to eat were their grilled cheese and tomato soup shooters, their strawberry spinach salad and their salmon. And the cake that came as part of the venue's package was really delicious, light and fluffy and not too sweet. I would recommend this venue again to anyone in a heartbeat. They really made the whole wedding planning process a breeze and gave us a day that we could never forget in a location that was absolutely perfect.
