The Rosè was delicious and one of the best I think I have ever drank. The surroundings are just breathtaking with you feeling like you are in a little oasis in Newport Beach. They have lots of animals on the property, goats, chickens, tortoise, ponds with beautiful koi fish, bunnies. It's an animal lovers dream. All the animals are very happy and friendly. You can tell they get lots of love and attention, and are very well kept. The landscaping is like no other like you are in an exotic jungle mixed with a beautiful winery. The service was great! The owner and staff are very welcoming and were a lot of help with coordinating the shower and getting what we needed for the set up. I would definitely recommend hosting an event here. It's a private winery so it's open for groups and events. I will definitely have another event here!

Only worked with Bree throughout the entire process (from tour, booking, questions regarding venue, invoicing, to final day of event) she was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, making everything run smoothly and stress-free. My family would like to thank you so much for all your help that day! Shout out to Bree! We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such an important day.

I booked Adina I believe in 2018 and she is not only professional but she is sweet, humble, and genuine. She worked with us every step and hurdle the pandemic caused. Meaning canceled venues, pushed wedding dates, special requests and even changed wedding design. I can't relay enough of my gratitude to her and her team. When the day of happened all that I dreamed of came to life. She worked with our budget and was realistic with us on what was worth getting to achieve the look and experience we wanted on our special day. All of our guests not only loved the venue, which is one of the exclusive venues of Event Loft, but they said the food and staff were impeccable. We have guests that continue to tell us that the venue was a gem to find and that everything was well scheduled. We booked everything with Event loft, except for the DJ and sofreh designer. She was very kind to the other vendors and helped them when needed. We have the most memorable photos, video and the flowers were beautiful and excellent quality. I couldn't imagine not having Adina and her team working our wedding. I simply can't thank them enough.

We decided to think on it for a day but after discussing it further with Adina and ensuring we could use our same plans, wedding designs and ideas it was a no brainer to have our wedding at this venue. Adina was so helpful throughout the process and the venue was so absolutely stunning. It fit my wedding design so perfectly and I felt like it was truly meant to be. Our wedding was a dream and we couldn't have pulled it all together without their quick responses and help to make our day amazing.

Stopped by Fullerton Arboretum during spring break while casually exploring the area, and it turned…read moreout to be much more relaxing than I expected. It's part of California State University, Fullerton, one of the campuses in the CSU system, known for its strong business and communications programs. The arboretum has been used for education and plant conservation since 1979, and it spans about 26 acres. Even though it's divided into different plant zones, it doesn't feel overly designed. It feels more like everything is growing naturally and you're just walking through it. I wandered through the desert area and woodland sections, passing by all kinds of plants like cacti, fruit trees, flowers, bamboo, and large trees. Some were honestly my first time seeing them, and each area had a slightly different vibe. I kept stopping to take a closer look or look things up. The Heritage House was closed during my visit, but the Rose Garden smelled amazing. There's also a shaded bench area under vine-covered trees in the back, which is a nice spot to sit and take a break. I also noticed a small and cute Native Bee Hotel, which is a thoughtful touch since bees play such an important role in pollination here. What I liked most about this place is the overall atmosphere. Students were casually sitting under trees, reading, or listening to music. I also saw a group doing yoga on the lawn. It just feels like a space where people and nature naturally blend together. Definitely a place I'd come back to for a slow walk. Arboretum and Botanical Garden at Cal State Fullerton 1900 Associated Rd, Fullerton, CA 92831 Free admission Parking: $4/hour or $10/day on weekdays, free on weekends

I met up with a friend that I hadn't seen for awhile and it was the perfect place to catch up during a walk around of the garden. I loved the pond with the lily pads and turtles, and the Heritage House surrounded by orange trees and roses. I was impressed by the amount of orange trees. It reminds you of why they call it Orange County. If I went to school here I'd be here probably once a week. Otherwise it's great to come if you live in the OC.

The venue is seriously beautiful--the fireplace + lounge area feels upscale, and the nighttime pool view is chef's kiss. Tons of parking, a private room to get ready, and plenty of space (we had 70+ guests and it still felt roomy). Shoutout to the dance floor: inviting, spacious, and the perfect size for our group once the open bar inspired some "creative" dancing. One suggestion: maybe close off the stairs to encourage elevator use... because a few of our "extra celebratory" guests somehow didn't realize the elevator existed. If I make it to 80, we're hosting another birthday here.
