About
Originally built as a livery and then used as a cold-storage warehouse, Millwick has reinvented itself as a unique stand alone, super-loft open to private events, outdoor wedding ceremonies and receptions, exhibitions and productions. It now boasts a flowing 7,000 square foot floor plan (4,500 sq ft interior + 2,500 sq ft garden courtyard) melding both interior and exterior areas. Millwick is an excellent wedding site for up to 175 people for garden ceremonies and receptions. Located downtown Los Angeles in the heart of the Arts District, Millwick is convenient to many of the best new and historic hotels, restaurants and nightlife the city has to offer.

Reviews of Millwick
The Best Venue!
Beautiful venue, incredible team
As for the venue itself...the pictures do not do it justice. It is a true oasis in DTLA and stunning at night. Our guests had a blast and could not stop raving about how cool the place is.
Go with these guys, they're the best :)
The Millwick is so beautiful
Dream Wedding Venue
Vision in the making
We loved Millwick!
We worked with Dana to plan our big day and she is as accommodating as you can imagine. She responds to every detail of every email you send and will always be there for you no matter how busy she gets. Let me tell you, this is a huge luxury given the horror stories I've heard about venues not responding to calls or emails from increasingly nervous clients. You won't have that problem at Millwick. Although they have a lot of rules, they want to set you up for success from the beginning so you get your full security deposit back (which we did).
Don't be afraid to ask questions or for advice on rentals, the people who work here have done hundreds of weddings and are happy to go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly on your big day. Prepare to rent some unexpected things (i.e. bar mats, trash bins), but again, if you communicate with Millwick from the beginning about what is needed, they will be very helpful explaining what to rent for your crowd size and such.
The atmosphere is incomparable. The greenery makes everything so colorful, you can add as few or as many decorations if you want. We were so lucky to be able to have our wedding here and can't wait to see the photos from our photographer. At night, the outdoor area completely transforms, and if you have a fun crowd, there are tons of bars nearby that they can go to immediately afterward. We loved having our wedding here. It's worth the money.
Perfect venue
The pictures of Millwick don't really do the place justice. The whole feel of rolling up to an abandoned looking garage building and then turning the corner into an urban jungle really set the tone for the experience here. At night, the lights give it a nice, warm glow. And the sofa set in the middle of the outdoor space give it a cozy, relaxing feel. There are little accents everywhere that will make your photos really pop, like the parrot couch in the background or the gold textured wall by the bathrooms. This made it easy for us to not having to decorate, since we have no eye for it. We could just use the venue pretty much as is, and it was still gorgeous. While I loved the teal color of the dining chairs, my only complaint is that they aren't the most comfortable and look a little bit flimsy. You could swap them out with your own rentals, but the color really helps to accent the room.
We booked our date about a year out to get the Saturday we wanted. The venue is really popular, so get in contact asap. You can always put a soft hold down with no charge. We worked with Helen on the booking and then with Dana once we put down the deposit. Dana was so helpful in the process and made sure we were following all of the rules so that we could get our entire deposit back (we did).
