We had the most incredible experience, it's such a fun spot - I wish we could do it all over again! Julia was incredibly lovely to work with, so responsive, and honestly has a very calming presence. She's very accommodating and fun to brainstorm cool ideas with.

The venue itself is a delight! We had about 100 people total and it was perfect. We did our ceremony in the front (the sneak peek photos are already looking fab with the palm tree), reception kinda in the front room / all over, dinner in the back, and dancing in the front room. There are so many fun little areas to explore and the venue has a lot of character. Definitely one of the more down to earth / laid back wedding venues we'd seen, which we really loved. They have some cute white picnic tables and benches that you're welcome to use, or if you rent your own tables and chairs they will move their tables offsite (kind of incredible honestly, must be a lot of work to do that). We ended up hosting a post wedding brunch back at the venue the day after, and I couldn't believe how quickly they turned everything around (from 11pm close to a 9am brunch, it went from full wedding to pristine brunch buffet). Mind blowing!

They have various options you can choose from, but JFYI if you end up hosting your ceremony in the front yard (we did), know that you do compete with some sound from the street. If you still like the idea of getting married under the palm tree (it *is* really pretty in the front), I'd recommend making sure you have a solid microphone and speaker setup and also just keep in mind some people will be innocently driving down the street with their music at full blast. You could attempt to compete with that by renting some hedges to cover the street from view, maybe bring in a little fountain for background noise, but it's still gonna happen! It wasn't an issue for us, just mentioning in case helpful. You never really know what kind of music someone bumping down the street will choose at that exact moment. ;)

Also have to mention, the bartenders where soooo good - crushed it on the cocktails. Everyone was seriously so great, we couldn't be happier!! We also really loved the bridal suite. My husband (yay!) got ready elsewhere and then came to the venue with his groomsmen and took photos downstairs, I took photos upstairs in the bridal suite. Some very epic backdrops for photos.

We highly recommend the Victorian! If you go with this venue, definitely scope out their preferred vendor list. We had an absolute rockstar team of vendors who were incredibly lovely to work with!!

Massive thank you to Julia and the entire team for making our wedding weekend so special!!

From the moment we walked into The Victorian House, we knew we had found the perfect place for our "Surprise... we Eloped" celebration. Julia and her team embraced our vision for a fun and unique experience, and they delivered beyond our wildest dreams.

We did not want a traditional wedding venue or experience. What set The Victorian House apart was its ability to create a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Our guests loved playing pool, foosball and corn hole, and the fire pits, s'mores and cigar bar added a touch of the Old Hollywood Glam vibe we wanted. Our guests can't stop raving about the location and that it was the most fun and unique wedding they ever attended.

Julia and her team truly outdid themselves and took care of every detail, from the amazingly delicious craft cocktails to setting up our decor, allowing us to relax and enjoy our special day. It was perfect!

If you are looking for a one-of-a-kind wedding experience, look no further than The Victorian House. Julia and her team will take your vision and turn it into reality, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

I met my now husband at the funnest club in Ventura called Candlelight 15 years ago, and it's a dream come true to have married there this February 2024. Communication was prompt, and Julia is more than accommodating for site meetings and planning. Our event was super small attendance, so it was a treat to have access to all the grounds. Julia made sure the details were heeded, and while it was not a full day, was ever-attentive, very professional with a cheery and dutiful personality.
