Courtyard Irvine Spectrum Reviews

What a beautiful place The Courtyard Irvine Spectrum is! I was the maid of honor in my best friend's wedding here. It turned out fantastic and everyone was so happy. The ceremony and cocktail hour was on the Event Lawn and the reception was held in the Portola Ballroom. Everything was superior! Stephanie Dines and her team, at the Courtyard Irvine Spectrum were absolutely great!! They went above and beyond meeting our wedding needs! Stephanie is so knowledgeable and very patient with all of the "surprises" that came along with our event. Her staff was very attentive and consistently made sure that the bride and groom, as well as our guests were well taken care of! I also have to say something about the food here because it was seriously incredible, hats off to the Chef! This venue is only 3 years old and the decor is absolutely fabulous! It has so many decorative details, that it truly helped to make the wedding beautiful!! All of the wedding guests were amazed at the beauty of the ceremony and reception space! I would definitely recommend Stephanie Dines and her entire team for future business! They're great!!

My wife and I got married 8/5/2017 and it was a great experience from top to bottom. We had shopped different venues, but none of them could compete with price, hotel stays, hotel reservations for our guest, and location (we live in southern California). I would definitely recommend Courtyard Irvine Spectrum, and we feel like we found a "gem" before it becomes a pristine wedding location.

This venue is amazing! I’m so glad it was the site of our wedding. The outdoor ceremony space was beautiful and so versatile. The fireplace was a great backdrop for our ceremony and was great for our photos! The ballroom was wonderful with its neutral color pallet (great to accent my wedding colors) and high ceilings, it even has windows, which I utilized for taking pictures with natural light inside the reception space. We had plenty of space for all of our guests and a stage for the band. The catering was top notch! We had the buffet dinner and the wild mushroom risotto was to die for, I wish I could eat it every day! This venue made it easy for us to plan our wedding with the sales, planning and day of service being exceptional every step of the way. We had a room block at the hotel for our bridal party and guests which made getting ready the day of super easy. The service at the hotel from the Front Desk to Banquet Team to the Bistro was outstanding. I couldn’t imagine having had our wedding anywhere else. Great job Courtyard Irvine Spectrum!!! Thank you for making my wedding a day I will remember forever!!!!

We had a Welcome Reception for my son's wedding (approx 100 guests) and would heartily recommend this venue. We used the outdoor space and it couldn't have been more beautiful. Everyone raved about the set-up and the food. We wanted specific brands of wine and alcohol and also some off menu food items; the hotel staff were very accomodating and were able to supply everything we wanted. We worked mainly with Stephanie and Ernesto both of whom we'd highly recommend; very professional. In addition, the hotel gave our guests a very nice room rate as well which we much appreciated.

Love and Loved this venue for our wedding. We looked for a place to have a ceremony and the reception in one spot so it would be convenient for our guest. We feel in love with the basic layout and decor of the hotel. The staff and service was outstanding. The event planning staff at the hotel was exceptional and helped to make the preparation for the day as seemless. Furthermore, they were great the day of the wedding. Everything turned out magically and thanks to the event planning staff at this Venue. The food was delicious as well. The wedding package was within our budget. Highly recommend this venue for wedding or special events.

The post wedding brunch was excellent!
