  The Victorian staff were absolutely wonderful to work with. From Holly in sales/coordination to the catering/wait staff...they were dreams! The night of our wedding the servers made sure to always keep me and my husband happy at all times. The food was phenomenal as well! We had multiple stationary appetizers which had anything from a huge delicious baked Brie and charcuterie to a delicious Mediterranean spread. For dinner we opted for the prime rib (the hit of the night), chicken with wild rice or polenta cake for the vegetarians. All were sooo good. We didn't hear one complaint from any of our 185 guests about any of it! All of the above plus a gorgeous vintage venue... You can't beat that!

  We got married at The Victorian and it was amazing!
  
  We primarily worked with Holly and she was phenomenal from start to finish. She answered all my questions and more. She made the entire experience wonderful and was so flexible and accommodating.
  
  The food was phenomenal, the service was great, the bar is the best around (everyone LOOOOVED the bar)! They make great specialty drinks!
  
  The venue itself is a historical home and beautiful - very intimate feel; it's two stories and has space inside and outside. You don't need to decorate very much because it's so beautiful just the way it is.
  
  The lighting is set up beautifully, the votive candles are included, a beautiful chandelier... makes for stunning photos.
  
  The groomsmen got ready at "The Basement", which is their bar downstairs. They offered the guys drinks while they got ready and took photos. The ambiance there is really cool.
  
  The guests were greeted with champagne and well attended to. As the bride and groom, we had a server attend to us all night, making sure we were well fed and always had water and/or a drink in hand. That was REALLY nice, as it's hard to make time to even grab an appetizer!
  
  The venue is only 2 blocks from the beach, so we were able to break away for 10 minutes and get beautiful beach photos.
  
  Overall, phenomenal experience!

  What an amazing venue. Perfect in every sense of the word. Our planners, Holly and Aisha, delivered everything they said they would plus so much more. Our guests marvelled at our choice of venue - and we could not be happier. (The only sad thing is not seeing Holly and Aisha as much, but, we have two new friends -- yay!)
  
  As for the food, the salmon was moist and perfectly cooked. The appetizer platters won high praise from our friends and family.
  
  We also loved how the event moved from outdoors to upstairs, with the downstairs patio and dining room in between. The wait staff was extremely friendly, courteous and attentive. Is it too soon to start planning our vow renewal here?

  Everything about the Victorian was perfect for my ceremony and wedding! The location, the decor, the staff, the food... everything! All my guests gushed about my wedding and I thank the Victorian for making it just perfect!

  So happy we chose The Victorian as our wedding venue. It was the perfect intimate setting and in my opinion truly unique to other places we had looked at. The wedding coordinators that work there are such a delight to work with...so nice and helpful! And the food was amazing! Countless people had told us after that it was some of the best food they'd had at a wedding. To top it off free valet- what else can you ask for?! Can't go wrong with this place.

  The Victorian--where do I begin? It has the vintage charm that I love in a location that my husband could enjoy (he's more of a city guy). Not to mention, the prospect of him and his boys getting ready in the basement speakeasy helped get him pumped to go for this venue.
  
  Once we decided on the Victorian, we were helped by Ashia and she couldn't have been more knowledgeable, more available and more understanding of all of our needs. She is a superstar at this wedding stuff! From the first day we toured the Victorian to when we were sat down to have our first dinner as husband and wife, Ashia was there for us every step of the way (and always with smile on her face, to boot!). Holly, who works alongside Ashia, was also extremely helpful at answering any questions during our months of planning.
  
  We got married on the lawn. We were kind of concerned about the noise, but when we were up there for our ceremony, the noise from the street seemed so distant to me. And I think the guests felt the same way. The Victorian provided a microphone so that my uncle (our officiant) was audible for everyone to hear what was being said.
  
  Every guest I spoke with said the food was amazing--from the appetizers (cheese & meat platter, samosas, vegetarian dip) to the main course. The bartenders and wait staff were equally amazing. Ali and the parking staff, as well as security personnel, were wonderful, too.
  
  Overall, my husband and I are SO happy we chose the Victorian as our wedding venue. From the beautiful home and the attentiveness of Ashia to the helpful day-of staff and intimate ambiance, it truly was a wonderful place to celebrate our marriage. We already have recommended the Victorian to others and will continue to do so. And we will definitely visit whenever we're in the neighborhood. The home will always have a special place in our hearts.

  My husband and are so happy we got married at The Victorian! Ashia, the events director, and everyone else at The Victorian went above and beyond to make our day stress-free and wonderful. We deeply appreciated their attention to detail and their work to meet our needs/requests. Everything on the day of our wedding was on time, and the service was exceptional and the food was delicious during the reception. We highly recommend The Victorian for couples looking for a place to get married!

  The Victorian was the first wedding venue we looked at, and we knew it was perfect immediately. We checked out several others to feel like we did our due diligence, but we were so drawn to the Victorian yet city vibe of the place, along with the nearly all-inclusive package, that it was really a no brainer. The great thing about this venue is that all of the catering is done in house (aside from the cake, which you provide), so it's very manageable--and the food is FANTASTIC. Our guests said it was the best they had ever had at a wedding (the prime rib was a favorite). Really more than anything though, Ashia was the reason our wedding was so amazing. She should get a gold medal. We emailed her several times a day, visited constantly, had no idea how to plan a wedding or what we were doing, and she was always responsive and, most importantly, super stoked about the event. I feel like this note isn't doing her justice--she is just so good, you have to go meet her now.
  
  We decided to have our ceremony indoors upstairs rather than outside due to the size of our wedding and our desire for a more intimate ceremony (outside is beautiful, but you're right on Main Street--and our wedding was at 5 pm--though I know couples who have loved the outdoor space for their ceremonies as well). It was perfect for our vibe.
  
  The one thing that ended up being a bit tricky for us is that we had some trouble meeting the minimum price because our guest count was small (45). However, we got so much value for our buck that it was actually insane. We got to serve everyone a side of lobster with their entree, a signature cocktail custom designed by the venue's bartender, incorporate their amazing candelabras into our table centerpieces, have a five-hour full premium open bar, champagne to greet guests before the ceremony, more passed appetizers than we could try, and so much more while coming just shy of the minimum. The value couldn't be beat.

  5 stars for Ashia Taylor and The Victorian in Santa Monica!
  
  Just celebrated my wedding at this beautiful and quaint venue, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. It was truly a magical evening and the year of preparation leading up to it was wonderfully attended to by the lovely, in house, event planner Ashia!
  
  She was warm and welcoming every time I stopped by and/or called, which was often. She was genuinely excited for my husband and I and really went above and beyond to give us the best possible experience with the best service.
  
  The in house caterer (Duck Duck Mousse) provided delicious food! All my guests complimented the abundance of appetizers at cocktail hour, the generous portions and perfectly prepared entrees at dinner, and even the beautiful spread of desserts! The prime rib was heavenly, the sea bass was like butter, and the polenta was (as my vegetarian friends exclaimed) the BEST vegetarian entree (they've ever had offered at a wedding). Seriously, this was not just sub par wedding fare! We had an exquisite sit down dinner complete with excellent service by a proper wait staff and captain.
  
  The house itself is so beautiful that you don't need to over think decor. A few personal items (e.g. photos), flowers, and uplighting (a worth while addition!), are really all you need.
  
  Honestly I can gush over my wedding forever because it was absolutely perfect! The most beautiful and seemingly smooth event I've ever attended. If there were any issues I was completely unaware, and that's the way it should have been!
  
  If you're looking for a romantic and intimate place for your wedding, this is it!

  Every detail that we worked with Mia & Ashia to create our Wedding Reception worked out to absolute perfection! Not only is the house absolutely beautiful, every aspect of our reception was carried out exactly as we dreamed it! Careful attention to every detail was given to our event! The service staff was phenomenal. The venue looked beautiful! The food was delicious! The drinks were outstanding. The absolute most amazing and personalized experience a bride and groom could wish for!

  My wedding experience at The Victorian was amazing. It was everything I could have asked for and more. When looking at venues to hold my reception there were a lot of factors that I considered, price, parking, look, wedding coordinators and The Victorian topped the list out of every venue I looked at. From day one the staff was responsive, got back to me on all my needs and helped me step by step to create the perfect reception that I always had wanted. The food was amazing, the location was ideal and the look was exactly what I wanted. The lights, candles and décor added so much character that I saved so much money on bringing in useless decorations that I didn’t need. The venue is so beautiful by itself; it has such a charming comfortable feel. What made my wedding perfect was the staff, from the wedding coordinators, the catering staff and all the waiters. The day of my wedding I had everyone accommodating to all my needs so I felt totally content that everything was being taken care of and my guests were all enjoying themselves. I wouldn’t have done anything different and my husband and I are so happy we chose The Victorian for our special day.

  We had a short three weeks to plan this wedding and it was extraordinary. Our event coordinator, Deb Feldman, was exceptional. The setting wa beautiful and a wonderful ceremony and reception were put together so smoothly that one would have thought we would have had the traditional year and not a rush due to the best man being re-deployed to Iraq for the next 15 months. Every guest came up to me and raved about the location, the food, the service. I would recommend The Victorian to anyone for a wedding or any important event in their life. For those services not provided (such as officiant, DJ (although they do have a sound system) they give you a list of exceptional vendors that they have worked with and feel comfortable recommending. They made this experience a resounding success!. I cannot thank them enough for all their assistance. The bride and groom are both estatic. Thank you again. Linda Ulrich, mother of the bride.

  VERY unique and genuine vintage house approx. 15,000 square feet. Staff is fabulous, food is quite good, decor is lovely. Highly recommend for someone looking for a "different" and more personal venue.

  We had a fairytale wedding at this incredibly wonderful, classy location. It was SO NICE to have both the ceremony & reception in one location. The areas to get ready ahead of time were another selling point for us; my husband was thrilled to have a space, since most places were only offering this for the bride.

  We wanted our guests to feel "at home" - but not our home (where more than 25 bodies would be too snug for comfort). The Victorian was the perfect venue for putting everyone at ease, making it the creative/eclectic, yet warm and loving event we were hoping for (not a cookie-cutter, anywhere U.S.A. nuptials). Our guests raved about the location, crowed about the quality of the food and cheered our choice of venue. Overall, it was a magical evening and everything was perfect from start to finish, right up until the very moment we departed. I have to say, it was also a wonderful planning experience and I never felt stressed or pressured at any time considering how the "soup to nuts" details for a wedding can be a VERY stressful time, when you're just working to get everything together to fit your vision. The Victorian made the process comfortable and FUN.

  beautiful, professional, and extremely willing to do everything in their power to make our day and dreams fall together as perfectly as possible.
  my favorite thing that everyone kept saying is "its your day, you tell us what your dream is, and we will do anything we can to make it happen!"
  all the staff was so friendly and worked promptly and efficiently with our busy schedules to make everything happen on time and in the right way.
  amazing communication and an awesome answering service when the coordinators were unavailable.
  over all, perfect! (:

  A beautiful space for wedding photos, ceremony, and reception. There are a ton a different configurations to plan with including indoor and outdoor options. The staff is professional and enthusiastic. The site is clean and parking is convenient. The only major con is that it isn't wheel chair accessible.

  My wife and I had our wedding there recently and were completely satisfied with everything. The venue worked with us from beginning to end. The food, space, decorations, merchant referrals, drinks, and whole process was great.
  For our food we were invited to tastings and were offered all possible options from cheese plates, walking appetizers, desserts, drinks, and so on. We elected for the poke ahi, cheese plates, ricotta stuffed peppers as appetizers and had no complaints. For dinner we had the filet mignon and seabass and although most elected the filet mignon, I was in love with the fish. Everything was clean, professional, pristine, elegant, and timely. Both my wife and I were looking for something classy, intimate, literary, and vintage and this venue met our every need. The aesthetics and options of rooms was worth it. Overall, our only tidbit was timely responses to communication (which weren't bad but could've been improved) they usually got back to us within 3-4 days, but other than that we enjoyed every second :) Thank you to everyone at The Victorian, we will definitely be back whether it is for another occasion or even for the speak easy bar downstairs :)

  I was looking for a vintage venue for my wedding this past February, and immediately fell in love with the Victorian. The building is beautiful, a Victorian house from the late 1800s. As a wedding venue, you get a lot of bang for your buck: the per head price includes dinner (buffet or sit down at the same price), 3 hours beer/wine/champagne, cake cutting included, tables, chairs, linens, valet parking, security, and a bunch of other little things that are necessary for hosting weddings and other fancy parties. We had the ceremony upstairs in the evening in the beautiful library, backlit by the lights in the willow trees outside. Our reception was downstairs in their dining room, with the most amazing wedding food ever! Seriously, I have never had wedding food that good, our guests could not stop raving about it! Our guests also kept mentioning how our venue fit us as a couple perfectly. It really is the perfect place for a vintage themed wedding like ours. Most importantly, the people who are working there are phenomenal. Holly the events manager is the best, always going above and beyond to help me with any little questions or problems that arose. She even helped coordinate our rehearsal the night before and helped us figure out our entrance order, and let us store some things overnight in her office so we would have less crap to bring the morning of. She was there the entire day to assist in every way possible, and our wedding set up and ceremony ran so smoothly because of her. If you are thinking of having an event here, request her as your liason! For our reception our wait captain Kelly was amazing as well, making sure that we actually ate during our wedding! The entire wait staff and bartenders were superb. I could not have asked for a better wedding venue.

  Everyone should get married at the Victorian- because they know how to put on an amazing wedding. I can't say enough good things about Ashia & the staff there.From the first time I toured the venue I knew i had to have my wedding there- the house/patio/lawn/upstairs are unique fun spaces to have an event- I made sure to use the whole house so guests were never "stuck" in one area and were able to see how awesome/fun the house was.
  
  I always looked forward to chatting with them about my event, & visiting, they kept making beautiful upgrades to the house (new carpet, new chandelier)... the day of the event they surpassed my expectations. I had the ceremony on the lawn which was amazing (do not worry about the street being close- it didn't cause too much distruption & you don't really even notice bc you are so in the moment) cocktail hour on the patio/bar area- plenty of space & the hanging lights & old house are a great backdrop. :) buffet dinner downstairs was THE BEST FOOD.. nobody left hungry or had a bad thing to say about the food... amazing prime rib, amazing pasta, AMAZING mashed potatoes...the food was warm & all of my guests were very impressed. The premium bar was fantastic- amazing lemon drops, there weren't very many sober guests at the end of the night.
  The staff at the Victorian were PROFESSIONALS and made our event run smoothly... the bartenders were loved by my guests & the waitstaff was just fantastic.
  Ashia/Holly know what their doing & everyone had a fantastic time there!

  My husband and I were married at the Victorian and it was amazing! The food was amazing. I recommend the mashed potato martini bar. There are yummy and fun for the guests to do and talk about. The goat cheese ravioli is delicious as well. Mandy & Janell made sure that every detail went off without a hitch! We did not have to worry about a thing. The destination is great. Its right by the beach so its great for out-of-towners to visit. I have to say the Victorian's ambiance is romantic and quaint, we could not have done anything different to make it a better day! We were married on the front patio and even though it was 6:30pm on a Friday, the noise from the nearby traffic was not too bad. I would not recommend unless your party is smaller and you are going for that carefree feel. We had 120 and it was just perfect! Thank you for making our day the greatest!

  This was a beautiful venue, with wonderful staff. My guests truly enjoyed the setting, the ambiance, the food, the ceremony, and the wonderful service. The only thing lacking in the entire event, sadly, was the taste of the wedding cake. We ordered a red velvet cake after tasting the red velvet cupcakes at the tasting and the cake turned out to be very dry. Sadly, the Victorian is famous for their bakery! However, every other aspect of the wedding was exceptional and I wouldn't change any other factor. We have wonderful memories of the venue and our wedding.
