Orange County Venues that Allow Outside Catering

Hayley, on January 27, 2018 at 9:45 PM Posted in California Planning 0 9
Hello everyone!
So me and my fiancé are planning our wedding for this November 2018. We are hoping for an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception and really want to use a particular caterer. Only problem is we can’t seem to find a wedding venue that allows outside catering! Does anyone know of any venues in the Orange County, CA area that allows an outside caterer to come in? Bonus points for a venue that allows outside alcohol! Thanks in advance!

    Perhaps also check with your caterer to see what venues they have worked with in the past.

    I was having a really hard time finding one. Or if they took outside they still charged you per head so it would end up being more expensive then just using their caterer. FH and I were leaning towards Tustin Golf Course for a while and they’re outside catering package was pretty good.

    We’ve checked out about 10 venues and only 2 allow outside catering. One was the Coto De Caza country club but they were very expensive and the other was Wedgewood aliso Viejo but it was going to wind up costing a lot to use our own catering because they are all inclusive :/ we are stumped!

    We are getting married at A Stone's Throw Winery (in San Juan) and although they say they want you to pick from their preferred vendors list, I believe they would let you choose someone else as long as they had the insurance coverage which I'm assuming your caterer does! Never hurts to ask Smiley smile They do allow outside alcohol but your caterer or bartender needs the ABC license ! Only downside from your post is its an all outside venue. Gorgeous though we cannot wait to get married there!
