Thank you, Wedgewood Weddings Rio Hondo, for making my dream wedding come to life! We planned our…read morewedding in just six months, and not once did it feel stressful. One of the things we loved most was that it was truly a one-stop venue. Having so many services included made the planning process easy and enjoyable. A special thank you to our wedding coordinator, Liz Zamudio, who went above and beyond every step of the way. No matter what we needed, she took care of it. Everything was so well organized that we were able to relax and fully enjoy our special day. We received countless compliments on how beautiful the venue was, and our guests absolutely loved the food. We chose the buffet option, which included Panko Parmesan Chicken, Oven-Roasted Salmon, and Carved Roast Beef, served with Garlic Smashed Potatoes and Seasonal Vegetables. Everything was delicious! Our package also included the cake through Whisk'd Away. We chose a small cake accompanied by a dessert display, and both were absolutely amazing. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was. The floral arrangements by Annie from Little Blue Hummingbird were stunning and brought our vision to life perfectly. And finally, a huge shoutout to our DJ, Scott! He knew exactly how to keep the energy up all night long. The dance floor was never empty, and the vibes were incredible from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day. Thank you to the entire Wedgewood Weddings Rio Hondo team for creating memories we'll cherish forever! -Robles Wedding (6/12/26)

Staff was nice and helpful as we were setting up our wedding date with them. BUT after planning a…read morewedding date here and after my transaction was made I was not told it was non refundable. My finance and I wanted to cancel our wedding date. But, we were told that it is non refundable. It is not fair and it's very sneaky for a business to do things like this especially when you are coming to them from a good place. I called and asked to get my money back and they refused saying that other places do this as well, that I could use the money for something else within either services, that I had set a date with them and I can change it, or that me setting a date still counted as services. All of these I can understand, BUT it should have been mentioned prior to completing my transaction. Jose should have said that it is nonrefundable BEFORE the transaction was made like a good business would let you know. For anyone else looking into their services just know that it is NONREFUNDABLE.

Where do we even begin!!!!…read more From the moment my husband and I walked into The Sanctuary.. we both looked at each other and said "THIS IS IT!" Then we were greeted by the lovely Amanda. Amanda was so warm, welcoming and you could tell just happy to be doing her job! She was so genuine and everything just continued to get better. Sitting down with her and doing some numbers felt very easy and not overwhelming at all. She was so transparent about everything and the Wedgewood experience just felt like it was already taken care of for you. Once we agreed this was OUR place.. my husband and I felt like everyone was on our team and there for us! Both of us working full time we couldn't stop saying how everything was handled every step of the way! It was painless! The team at The Sanctuary truly cares! And you really do feel it all the way starting at the top! Kevin the general manager is wonderful and totally hands on. Once it was all locked in... FUMI!!!! Our girl!!!!! Took the wheel and we never looked back! She took care of it all! Remembered alllll the details! Her genuine kindness and thoughtfulness towards both of our families/friends meant so much to us. I keep saying over and over how stress free I was!! Even up to the day of the actual wedding because I knew she had our back! Anytime anyone asked me something all I said was "Fumi's got it! And if she doesn't she will make it happen!" Because that's how confident I felt about her and how she handles her job! We love love love you Fumi! You made our day and will always be a part of our story at The Sanctuary! Special shoutout to our night captain! Sam!!! She came in and never flinched! She made it all happen and was cool as a cucumber with the party going full force! She was the best! The head chef Fancie and sous chef David went above and beyond for us! All of our friends/family can not stop commenting about the food! Everyone said they couldn't get enough of the appetizers! And that they have rarely ever been to a wedding where they actually cleared the plate and were looking for seconds! lol! We love you guys! Again.. our friends/family can't stop saying how our wedding flowed so effortlessly, no awkward moments, and left all of us wanting more! We could have partied all night!! Dj Mario totally understood the assignment! From the moment the first song hit! We were on that dance floor and never left! Elmer from tnk photo...YOUR ARE THE BEST! Your professionalism and the amount of love you pour into your work not only shows but you can see!!! Sergio who we met through Elmer was the best!

We had our first venue fall through, but when we called the Queen Mary we were immediately put into the best hands and made to feel at total ease. Stacia and Breanna were over-the-top with the way they treated us like we were life-long friends of theirs. My Wife and I were continually impressed and made to feel at ease with all of the planning...all the way through to the morning after our wedding. Early on, Stacia took all of our calls and showed us rooms on the ship several times over several weeks and she never lost patience or got annoyed with us. Even when she stayed late after a long day of work to show us a ball room just "one more time." She was still warm, welcoming and full of smiles. Then Breanna took us under her wing and we were instantly treated like close friends to her also! From the food options and working with our budget, to the diagrams of our room, to the food tasting where we felt like royalty and even met the chef, to the upgraded location into the grand ballroom, to the suite she got us for the night of our wedding and so much more. Both my wife and I recommend the Queen Mary, and Breanna especially for any event of any kind. We are both in hospitality and customer service but Breanna and her team blew even us away with how well we were treated. If you are wondering about using the Queen Mary for your wedding, it's the best and easiest choice you could make. Don't hesitate, Call Stacia or Breanna and book with them asap....before someone else takes your spot!

Our wedding experience through the Chapel of Orange (thanks to Melissa & Cheryl) from our very…read morefirst consult visit through to its conclusion was enjoyable, positively memorable, and most importantly - SO EASY!!! Initially, my wife and I didn't believe we would be able to locate a wedding venue to move forward with our vision for an intimate and whimsical wedding aesthetic. So much so that we were a hair trigger away from eloping. Thankfully, as a final measure, we decided to create a checklist of required items that a wedding venue had to have for us to consider moving forward with a wedding including but not limited to; 1) an organic set of barebones / overall aesthetic that would pair well with a playful and lighthearted whimsical evening themed wedding aesthetic that in no way resembled the typical cookie cutter wedding 2) efficiently organized with strong vendor relations and/or recommendations, and 3) cost effective in the context of a smaller guest list of about 70. From the thoughtfully salvaged bricks from a to-be torn down structure in Europe that made up the archways of the reception area to the beautiful garden area rich with lush plants flowers nestled cozily between the ceremony and reception areas, the Chapel of Orange had checked off every box we had without us having to compromise. The well oiled machine that was Melissa and Cheryl far fostered a positive wedding planning experience as they handled EVERYTHING in such an unflappable manner. In addition to coordinating and scheduling design appointments, Melissa coordinated the vendors running their part correctly from the florist, to the videographer, to the Photo Booth, to the DJ, to the caterer, to the cake designer, and all the way down the list to the highly talented photographer Ashley Paige. Melissa also gave us a month by month wedding checklist to follow along to at the very start which made the ongoing planning process easy to follow while also simultaneously reducing any wedding related anxiety stemming from the feeling that we had forgotten some important detail along the way. Melissa's incredibly consistent and reliable communication as well as clear direction cut any unnecessary internal and external noise that went into the wedding process. Dates for big decisions such as our food tasting, table design, and final rehearsal were planned well in advance, allowing us to do nothing more than be present and direct the final decisions. Additionally, Melissa facilitated for the florist consult date and the DJ online phone meeting to verify lighting and song choices. The day of rehearsal, we dropped off all our supplemental DIY designs for our themed wedding and Melissa handled the rest of set-up. The day of the wedding was smooth like butter; Melissa had... 1) our parking spaces reserved with bright orange cones for us as well members of the wedding party, 2) boutonnieres ready and pinned members of the wedding party as they arrived 3) both the groom and bride's prep rooms staged and ready to go, 4) and all vendors on standby and ready for instruction. I have no doubt that Melissa handled so many more fires behind the scenes as my wife and I didn't have a single hiccup or moment where we had to step away to address a concern. It was marvelous, and the best day of our lives. TLDR: The Chapel of Orange runs like a well cared for and harmonious machine headed by Melissa and Cheryl. At each step of the way, they took the feedback we had the day of our wedding, executed the upper limit of potential we had for our whimsical garden wedding.

The space itself is so intimate and special, and it created the perfect atmosphere for our day. Every detail came together seamlessly, and it meant so much to see our vision fully brought to life. From the setup, to the flow of the evening, to how comfortable and taken care of our guests felt--it was all perfect. We received so many compliments from our family and friends about how beautiful everything was, how delicious the food tasted, and how smoothly the night went, which is a true reflection of Cheryl and her team. We are especially grateful for how accommodating and patient Cheryl was throughout the entire process. No matter how many questions or requests we had, she always made us feel heard and supported, and that made all the difference during such an important time in our lives. We will cherish these memories forever--especially the bubble send-off!!
