The Grand Summit Ballroom is the venue’s grand centerpiece. Able to seat as many as 250 guests, the ballroom features a patterned carpet and handsome floor-to-ceiling windows. A high ceiling lends a sense of airy elegance to the space. In the middle of the room, there is a raised tile dance floor, which is overlooked by chandeliers and ceiling draping.

A delicious wedding cake is available. Rental chairs and event coordination form a part of every reception package. The venue also maintains a list of preferred vendors that you are welcome to peruse. If the prospect of poring over photographers and DJs does not please, the venue can arrange the provision of those services for you. They offer an all-inclusive Everything But the Ring package.

Loved it!!

Having our wedding at the Summit House was truly a dream come true! They were the first venue that my husband and I went to go see and we knew from the start that the Summit House was special. We tried to go tour other venues but the peace that we felt at the Summit House was undeniable. Everyone loved the food, the gazebo, and the view! It’s such a beautiful place to have your wedding that it doesn’t need much to make it outstanding as it already is. LeeAnn was so helpful leading up to our wedding and we were so appreciative on how organized she is. The Summit House did have a different “Day of Coordinator” for the wedding, and they oversaw all the “behind the scenes”. If you want more 1-to-1 interactions, you might want to hire a wedding planner or an additional day of coordinator. Overall, our wedding day was perfect thanks to the Summit House!

The BEST Wedding Venue

The Summit House gave us our dream wedding! Every aspect of the Summit House was beyond what we could have ever hoped for. The entire Summit House team was amazing from start to finish, but LeeAnn was truly the reason that we loved our special day. From the moment we stepped foot at the Summit House, we knew it was the perfect place for us. The location was beautiful, the views were spectacular, and their entire system was turn-key. We did not do the Everything But The Ring Package, but we still felt like everything was so streamlined. Every time we spoke with LeeAnn, all of our fears would go away because we knew that we were in good hands. The entire staff was professional, knowledgable, and truly amazing. Our wedding went off without a hitch, and that was entirely because of the Summit House. There is truly not enough good things that we can say. If you are thinking about getting married at the Summit House, don’t look any further. We promise that you won’t regret it!

May 2021 Wedding

We had the most incredible wedding at Summit House! Working with LeeAnn and her team at Summit House was an ABSOLUTE DREAM. We originally had planned our wedding for 2020, but due to the pandemic had to postpone. We were very nervous that we wouldn't be able to have our future date available in 2021, but LeeAnn and all the wonderful vendors we worked with assured us that it would not be an issue at all. LeeAnn was so incredibly kind and responsive to all of the questions I had. She made sure that everything was taken care of and more than anything calmed me down when I would psych myself up for no reason. It was an absolute pleasure to have her as our wedding coordinator.

Our actual wedding day was May 7th, 2021. A day prior, we had dropped off all of our little decorative items that needed to be displayed at the reception. LeeAnn and her team executed all of my visions into a reality. We opted to have our cocktail hour and reception at Summit House, while having our ceremony at a church. Not to worry though, Summit House has a beautiful park and gazebo if anyone chooses to have their ceremony on site. Our reception space was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. Not only is Summit House on top of a hill overlooking Orange County, the cute cottage-like, romantic ambiance of the venue makes this location an absolute MUST for a wedding.

We had an open bar along with the most delicious hors d'oeuvres for cocktail hour. What my husband and I enjoyed the most was that everything was so well taken care of so we actually got to enjoy the cocktail hour ourselves. LeeAnn was also kind enough to bring me and my husband our own little tray of hors d'oeuvres to the bridal suite so we could take a few minutes to ourselves and enjoy the delicious food in peace.

Our timeline for how the night was supposed to go was executed without a hitch. My husband and I, along with our 100+ guests, were so impressed by the service, the food, and the venue. The food was out of this world! Most people tend to think that when food is made in such large quantities---especially at a wedding---something tends to lack. That was absolutely not the case at Summit House. We opted for a plated dinner with Filet Mignon, Stuffed Chicken, or a Vegetarian pasta as our meal choices. Every single steak was cooked to absolute perfection and the chicken was so moist. The vegetable pasta had the most scrumptious sauce. Bread service, along with tea and coffee was also available for all of our guests. We had so many of our guests coming up to us sharing that the food at our reception was the best wedding food they have ever had. The service that we received from all of the servers, along with the vendors present was impeccable. They made sure that not only the bride and groom were happy and having a good time, but that also the guests were as well.
All in all, we could not have asked for a more perfect reception. We feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to have our wedding at the Summit House.

To the Summit House team, we want to thank you so much for giving us the best day of our lives. We thank you for all of your hard work in making May 7th, 2021 a day we will never forget!

Should you have your wedding at Summit House? Not even a question. YES YES YES!

The Summit House is an extremely popular Ceremony and Reception Venue in Orange County. There are several reasons why. 1. It has a great view of Northern Orange County as it sits in the Hills of Fullerton. 2. The Grand Summit Ballroom is beautiful, well maintained so it doesn't need extensive decor to make it look fabulous although it does look even more breath taking with some floral and Up Lighting. 3. The food and menu is out of this world and let's just say your guests will impressed with the quality and talents of their chef. It is a restaurant so you'd expect the food to be tasty right? 4. And the biggest reason why this is such a highly sought after venue? Their service is phenomenal! The sales team, on-site coordinators and banquet staff all go out of their way to make sure you are well taken care of from the moment you book until your guest depart. Not only do they provide a great experience for you and your guests but they've always been extremely accommodating to our needs as DJ Entertainment. It's obvious that they totally understand that we are all part of the same team and that our ultimate goal is to serve you, the client. The Summit House has been doing this consistently since they opened in the early 90's and it is a testament to their success.
