September 2024 Wedding

My fiancé and I are still on Cloud 9 from our wedding this weekend! Everything was perfect, and our family and friends loved it.

Thank you so much for the care, attention, and patience this whole wedding season. From the prompt communication to the unique venue, we will forever remember the Hacienda.

Dream Wedding!

Thank you so much to the Hacienda staff (Art, Jazmin, Christin). for hosting an unforgettable night. Our wedding was truly magical. This venue includes everything so it was easy and made the process fun! The only thing we had to cover was the DJ (We HIGHLY recommend Larry Wohrman at Diamond entertainment) and photography (Jean Marshall). I will now recommend this hidden gem to any and all people who are looking for a beautiful environment for their special day! :)

Brunch Wedding at the Hacienda

My husband and I got married in November of this year and the Hacienda was a wonderful venue. We had visited the venue a year before and we could not get over how beautiful it was. You do not need to decorate it much since it is beautiful as is!

We decided on a brunch wedding, we wanted to keep our ceremony and reception intimate and this option allowed us to have the amount of people we wanted (~50) at the price we wanted. The whole event was from 10am-2pm. Some of our guests joined us elsewhere in the OC afterwards for dinner and bar/club, so the party doesn't have to end necessarily at 2pm.

While we were planning our wedding, my husband and I lived out of state and we did not hire a wedding planner, so we wanted a venue that could handle many of those finer details since we couldn’t be as hands on. The Hacienda provided many of the things that we needed, day of coordinators, and I did not have to stress about the venue! The Hacienda also offers preferred vendors list and we hired the DJ (had to be a DJ on their list) and the photographer from their list and both turned out great recommendations.

The Hacienda included drinks, food, cake from a local vendor, and flowers. The food and the cake was delicious, we chose the American breakfast and everything on the menu was great. The flavor for the cake we chose was red velvet, and I'm not a cake person but that cake was really good.

As we were considering a late November wedding, we chose the Taos side to allow for the covered ceremony and indoor reception in case of weather. The day itself was great weather, but this allowed us extra protection in case it didn’t cooperate. And the venue is open enough, especially during the day time, where we didn’t feel we were missing out on the good weather (compared to the inner courtyard side where it’s mostly outside). We were the only event at that time, so we were able to take portraits around the whole venue after the ceremony.

The wedding coordinators at the Hacienda were very helpful and would answer all of our questions when we had them. I would recommend hiring the Hacienda for your weddings/other events.

The Hacienda is the hidden gem of Orange County! Three beautiful Southwest decorated locations to choose from, inside and outside. I just wanted to move in when I first saw it! Staff is very friendly, professional and helpful! Love this venue!

I've had the pleasure of photographing several weddings at The Hacienda, from the first one I've always thought it was such a great venue. The staff has always been a friendly group of people to work with and all my clients have always been happy their service they provide. I always look forward to photographing working with the wonderful staff on weddings at The Hacienda.

It has always been a pleasure for us to work at The Hacienda, in our opinion one of Orange County's premier venue locations alongside Tivoli Too & Terrace. Their hospitality is always genuine, and finding locations to shoot within the venue is a breeze. Highly recommended!
