Wedding Venues in Long Beach

The Event Team at Holiday Inn is great to work with. We have done several events with them. They are flexible and responsive to unique situations. They have great follow-through. The team works well together - food and beverage, room sales, meeting rooms and planning! We will continue to utilize Holiday Inn for our events. Their newly remodeled facility is also a bonus!

I cannot express how grateful my husband and I are to have booked our wedding reception at The Grand. We worked primarily with Marissa and Lauren on this event for close to 18 months due to postponements as a result of COVID. What stands out about this venue is their professionalism. We opted to go with this venue primarily for this reason and the value for what you are getting. Throughout all the changes, they were nothing but responsive and helpful in any way they could be. My emails were always answered promptly. Despite all the stress from having to change my wedding plans, I never had to worry about being taken care of at The Grand. When my husband and I finally had our event this past October, everything on our agreement was delivered as promised. Zero issues whatsoever. We had great waitstaff and a super fun bartender. The venue itself was set up beautifully. Thank you so much to everyone at The Grand for creating such a beautiful day for us.

My now-husband and I are so glad we went with the Renaissance Long Beach Hotel! Working with them was such a blessing. Lisa Lyons-Gentile especially was such an amazing and positive person to connect with; she truly took the stress out of planning and helped us to feel like we could pull off a huge event like a wedding. From our initial inquiries, to food tasting, to flow planning the week of, we truly felt like we were in good hands and could communicate both our concerns and preferences. The staff made themselves present on the day of the event, and the venue itself was just modern, clean and gorgeous. If we could get married again, we would! And we for sure would do it at the Renaissance :)

The Sound Originals Photo & Video team recently shot a wedding at Skylinks and WOW what a dream venue! The wedding was absolutely gorgeous thanks to Skylinks' beautiful property and attentive team. They were amazing to work with and had phenomenal locations for the ceremony and portraits! We would be so excited to work here again.

Nicole and Catherine were phenomenal. They worked in tandem with us to tailor the ceremony and reception to our budget and preferences, ultimately exceeding our expectations. They even successfully accommodated a last-minute request for a rehearsal dinner for 30 people. The staff delivered outstanding service, and most importantly, we experienced an extraordinary wedding day that was as beautiful as it was memorable.

Karen Adams at the Westin, Long Beach was an absolute joy to work with. Everyone at the hotel was professional and made sure we had an amazing wedding. The banquet staff was amazing - they made sure we ate during our reception and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. Karen is fantastic - she was always available via email or phone to answer our questions. She set aside ballrooms as a backup ceremony site in case of rain, she made sure there was water at our rehearsal, at the ceremony site and in the holding room - she thought of everything! We had a great wedding and reception at the Westin. There are so many perks of having your wedding there - they offer a complete package. They even have a contract with a great bakery - so your wedding cake is included in the banquet fee! Kathleen & Dean handled our room blocks and they were really helpful. Whether it was helping us determine how many rooms we needed or making sure we were able to check in early or handing out welcome gift bags to our guests, they are part of the incredible team there. If you are considering Long Beach for your wedding, take a look at the Westin. You'll have a professional team that will do everything to ensure you have a wonderful event. Not to mention, there is nothing better than getting into their Heavenly Bed at the end of the night!

The Ebell was at the top of our price range so it was a difficult yes for us, but I have to say, I feel like we got every bit of value out of it. The food was amazing – we had so many compliments from our guests. Jen, Katie and the team were so responsive, always replying within 24 hours (but usually within only a few). The venue is gorgeous and so well-decorated that you don't need to add much decor. They accommodated us whenever they could. We had 120 guests, with the "sweet spot" for this venue at 100 - 120. We made the price work by doing our own florals, doing signature drinks instead of a full open bar, and having musician friends do sound and music. The event was truly magical and I always felt like we were in the best hands. Our guests described it as the perfect wedding. Thank you, Ebell team!!

Working with Tawnya (and Spencer) at Recreation 18 was such a wonderful experience. After viewing the venue for the first time and meeting with Tawnya, we knew this was the venue we wanted to use to celebrate our special day. The venue is incredible and so beautiful and had every amenity we needed and wanted. Tawnya was so easy to work with, incredibly communicative, very accommodating and helpful, had great ideas and assisted with additional decor as well. The wedding day went perfectly and was everything we wanted it to be. We cannot express our gratitude enough to Tawnya for all of her help throughout the entire process.

The service was phenomenal! Jennifer Seo was our wedding coordinator/host/helper, and made everything so much easier for us. I loved the experience on the shit, and my guests fell in love with it. The vintage feel made everything a lot more romantic. The food was amazin, too. We got married on the gazebo and the views were phenomenal. My husband and me fell in love with the place. HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE. 10/10

We are so grateful to have gotten married at Long Beach Museum of Art! The staff are incredible, so kind and helpful, and the setting is stunning. From the start of our wedding process LBMA was wonderful to work with, super prompt with answering all of our questions and true experts. On the day of the event, everything was well organized, the setting was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the vibes we are amazing. LBMA will forever be part of our story and we are so grateful for it! We are so glad we chose LBMA as our wedding venue!
