The Hacienda and their staff made our special day truly unforgettable

The Hacienda was the first venue we toured when we started shopping around for our wedding venue and we immediately knew it was the one for us. We loved that the Hacienda took care of all the major details of our wedding including the day of logistics. We simply chose our DJ, photographer, and officiant and the Hacienda took care of the rest. The venue is beautiful and there's no such thing as a bad picture in the Hacienda. We chose the Southwest Buffet and we got nothing but great compliments from our guests about the food. We strongly recommend you go in person and check out the Hacienda to find out for yourself what a great venue it is. The Hacienda and their staff made our special day truly unforgettable.

11/10 Wedding Experience at the Hacienda

I had my wedding reception at The Hacienda two weekends ago, and it was truly the best experience. I booked the venue a year in advance and had tons of questions throughout the process. I probably spoke with nearly every staff member, and each one was professional, kind, and incredibly helpful—they answered every single question with patience and clarity.

On the big day, Kristin and Art were our day-of coordinators, and they went above and beyond. From the moment we arrived, they made sure we always had snacks, food, and drinks in hand. At one point, I was chatting with guests holding an almost empty glass of champagne, and Kristin appeared out of nowhere to swap it for a full one. Their attention to detail and calm presence made the day run perfectly.

Guests are still telling us how beautiful and flawless everything was. They especially loved the indoor-outdoor vibe of the venue—and the food! We didn’t get a chance to do a tasting beforehand, so we were a little nervous, but everything was absolutely delicious.

The Hacienda is a truly special place, and it’s the incredible staff that makes it unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend!

Charming and affordable

We definitely chose the right wedding venue. The Hacienda staff made it easy to plan all the event details and were very responsive when we had questions. They were even quite flexible with last minute changes, which we had a couple of the day before the wedding. Our family kept commenting how cozy and intimate the venue was and that the staff was very professional and kind. We would absolutely recommend this venue to others for their special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

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!
