The Athenaeum, located on the campus of the California Institute of Technology, is a private membership club steeped in history and elegance. Since its opening in 1930, The Athenaeum has been a hub for social, cultural, and intellectual exchange. With its Mediterranean-style architecture and lush landscaping, it provides a sophisticated setting for weddings.
This Athenaeum wedding showcased a classic and refined style. Bright yellow blooms added a touch of sunshine and whimsy. The courtyard was adorned with white folding chairs and flowers lining the architectural arch where the couple exchanged their vows, creating a timeless and enchanting ambiance.
2. Waterfront Beach Resort, Hilton
Situated just a short walk from the sands of Huntington Beach, the Waterfront Beach Resort by Hilton offers an idyllic oceanfront setting for weddings. With amenities like a beach club, rooftop lounge, and luxurious spa, it provides everything needed for a memorable celebration.
The beachy wedding pictured above at this venue was adorned with white floral arrangements, creating a serene and luxurious feel. An asymmetrical wedding arch served as a stunning focal point, while the reception area featured a cake engulfed in flowers. The use of white, creams, and beiges throughout the design added to the event’s elegant and upscale ambiance.
Perched on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, Paséa Hotel & Spa in Huntington Beach is a modern oasis that offers breathtaking views and world-class amenities. This venue is perfect for couples looking to escape the everyday and create a unique wedding experience.
This waterfront wedding at Paséa Hotel & Spa featured an aisle framed by white chairs, petals, and clear stands with vases filled with white blooms. The bride’s lacey, floral dress perfectly complemented the overall aesthetic, enhancing the venue’s modern and elegant vibe.
Located in historic San Juan Capistrano, Franciscan Gardens is a charming and rustic venue operated by 24 Carrots, Southern California’s premier catering and events company. This private venue features an outdoor courtyard, a historic indoor space with brick and chandeliers, and on-site suites.
