I just attended a wedding at [seven-degrees], and it was absolutely beautiful!! The venue is very modern and the lighting was just amazing! The staff were all very helpful -- there were people there helping with the bar, the sound, the lighting, and a wedding coordinator. My only big problem with the venue was the BATHROOMS. Get this: THE PARTITIONS ARE GLASS. It's obscured glass, but it's still glass, people. YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH IT. This means that, if you're peeing next to someone else, you can see their every move. You can't exactly make out their faces or see the cellulite on their thighs, but you can see them readjusting their pantyhose and everything else. I didn't pee all night except the one time that there was NO ONE else in the bathroom. Hopefully, they will see this review and do something about those partitions!! WORST IDEA EVER!!!! That just cost you a star, [seven-degrees]!! Other than that, it was a beautiful venue, and I wish I could afford to get married there. read more

I wish I could give this establishment half a star. I have tried to plan two events at Seven-Degrees and have had such bad customer service from Dora Wexell that not only did I not book at this venue, but I am now on Yelp.com to warn you all! First of all, you can never really get hold of any live person at this location. Secondly, when Dora calls you back, a week later, she gets your name wrong and then won't identify herself on the phone. I literally had to ask, "Where are you calling from?" and then after her response of Seven-Degrees there is was this long awkward silence. After about 10 seconds of that, I finally asked, "And your name?" I mean who does business like this? It's called good customer service..take a class in it. After she has promised me twice to email me a quote with various offerings and not delivering them, I have just given up on this location for any possible future events. Unless you have $10K or more to spend on a simple wine/beer social gathering, don't bother with them because they certainly aren't going to bother with you. read more

BWE!!!!!!!!!!! That's right, BEST WEDDING EVER( my biased opinion of course)! So I had my wedding reception at 7 Degrees and got so many compliments that our wedding on 9/10/11 was the best wedding they have ever been to. There were many other factors which made it great, but the venue sure placed a fat cherry on top. We planned our wedding more than a year in advanced and originally had a guest list for 275 people, which only 263 showed. At first I was worried that the venue may be quite crowded as the venue holds a max capacity of 300 but there was plenty of room and the room was not overcrowded as I thought. The venue is very modern and sleek with pretty good techonology. It has 3 different projector screens coming down with additional small LCD's, a built in sound system, and superb lighting. I had a DJ and a band, and the quality of sound was pretty good with there in house sound system. We worked with Keviann throughout the year who was our assigned event coordinator. She was very pleasant to work with and very prompt in responding to our emails and worked through our demands. What was great is that she made our day a lot easier and worked well with our on the day wedding coordinator. In regards to the process of choosing the food for the venue I believe, there were 3 tier prices of food to choose from with each tier having different varieties. I was sick of the cliche hotel filet mignon and lobster and wanted something different. Many of the variety of foods that they have are fusion based, but they could make pretty much anything you ask as long as its within the tier you choose from. For example, I requested the chef to make chimichuri sauce with my flat ironed steak, which was pretty good and highly recommend. What surprised me even more is that you can chose between having a a sit down menu or a buffet style. Since I'm a pretty husky guy and love to eat I chose the buffet, which was surprisingly less expensive than the sit down menu. What knocked me off my feet was that the buffet did not lose it's quality and the food was superb. Other recommendations that were awsome are some of the hors d'oeuvres that we had at the wedding like the bacon wrap shrimp , creme cheese crab wontons. In all, this place definitley exceeded our expectations: the food, the layout, and the service. We got plenty of compliments that our wedding was the best wedding they've ever been to and were amazed of the venue. If your tired of the hotel experience and want to have some ohhhh's and ahhs for you and your guest then this place is definitley the spot. read more

I came here for a wedding wedding and the experience was just kind of weird. The ceremony itself was in a roof like area. The really odd part was that there were two levels to this roof area. A small lower area and then a larger higher one with stairs connecting the two.....can you see where this is heading? Of course the ceremony was on the lower area and the majority of the guests were in the upper area. Except for maybe the first two rows no one could see the ceremony! After the ceremony ended the bar opened behind us. As they served drinks people came through and moved chairs from around us and even kicking a few people out of seats...again kinda weird. For dinner we got moved downstairs to the main hall area. The room was pretty spacious and all the guests fit in pretty nice. Food-wise the courses were all very forgettable. The salad with drops (I can't even call it a drizzle) of balsamic was a waste, the steak course was very Sizzler like and the creme brûlée... well I should just stop here and talk about some of the positives... The vent itself is very nice. It's multileveled and well designed. The servers at all bars were all very pleasant and nice and the horderves were quite tasty...which is why I may be a little harsh on the food. Overall I had an ok exerpeice...it was just... a little weird... read more

Alright, I guess I'll chime in too since I also attended a wedding here [surprise surprise]. It's a pretty nice and well-hidden venue. I had NO idea such a nice location existed in Laguna Beach...! No, really, I don't get out all that often :P Anyway, I really didn't think anything else besides lumber yards alike existed along the 133 near Laguna. But now I know better. The venue was really cool - the ceremony was upstairs and outdoors, and had a cool Hawaiian feel to it. It was probably the fake [or was it real?] bamboo and rock speakers playing "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz the whole time before and after the ceremony. Anyway, it reminded me a bit of Iao Valley park in Maui. The reception was held downstairs and indoors where there was a nice blend of simple mixed with frou-frou. The lighting was pretty cool. And there was plenty of room to dance. Nice monitors and speakers as well. Okay, getting too nerdy now... And yea, the bathrooms are kinda weird. Another issue, besides the see-thru glass partitions, is the fact that the doors swing inward and outward in such a small space. I hit a dude opening the door :O Good thing he didn't hit me back because he looked pretty buff. I even thought it was clear because I looked through the frosted glass and thought I saw nobody standing there. What a surprise. Other than that, it's awkward using the bathroom and trying not to wonder if the other guy can really see you or not. Ugh... All in all, a pretty cool place. read more

The seven degrees team made our wedding special! The team helped a lor leading up to the day and really made our vision come to life. Our guests all enjoyed themselves, thank you for making our special day so memorable. read more

UH-MAZE-ING place to have your wedding if you are a modern bride. The architecture of the gallery is sleek, beautiful, and modern.

There is a beautiful terrace and lots of interesting details throughout the entire venue. With regards to Dora and her wonderful team, they are AWESOME!

I had my wedding here at Seven Degree's on 4-14-2012 and it turned out amazing. My wedding coordinator was Alyssa Kayo. She is literally the most mellow, sweetest person. She makes you feel very comfortable and is open to making your day, all about what you want, no matter what. The venue was completely supportive of our ideas and when we needed help, they were there to support. The food was just as great as the previous reviews had said. Luckily I made sure to take the time to eat the food! The whole process while we were there went so smoothly. Many of our guests have been raving about how fun it was, how beautiful and intimate the whole day was. I definitely recommend this venue. The staff is great, food terrific and the over-all venue is enough to brag about! I can't wait to see my pictures so I can post some up! Have any questions? Ask me! read more

I am writing this review from the mother of the groom perspective. My son and his bride did all the legwork in the planning of their wedding. They chose Seven Degrees due to its contemporary atmosphere and uniqueness. They had the most awesome wedding coordinator names Ashley. She truly went above & beyond to make this wedding what the couple wanted it to be. She has a very congenial personality to work with and listens while all the while being so professional, considerate and friendly. Just meeting Ashley put me at ease and I immediately knew all was going to be fine. When I arrived for the rehearsal I thought the exterior was indeed unique with an abstract architectural design...it's very nice. The parking situation is metered and I am not sure if valet service was available. It's a little confusing to guests as to which main door to enter. The ceremony is rooftop with the reception held on the second floor. Although there are stairs and elevators, I would say it's a bit difficult for the elderly to get around. On the day of the ceremony I saw that the venue really personalized the area. On monitors and signs it read the bride & groom's names. I liked that. My son told me you could have anything you wanted up on the monitors. The food was delicious! The caterer took pride in presentation and of course taste! We were also served a wonderful dessert in addition to the cake! I highly recommend this venue as a mother of the groom and as a guest! read more

A beautiful, modern location for all kinds of events, from weddings, to art gallery openings, to premiere parties. Great sound system, and unique configurable lighting, and amazing food on all levels. Came here for a fashion show and it was a fantastic evening. This is a special unique place. read more

Came here for a special event and WOW this place is awesome!! The architecture, layout, food, servers, etc were spectacular. This place has a hip vibe to it and it is really beautiful. The free range roasted chicken was amazing, actually all the food was really good. I can't wait to go back!!! read more

Pros: Modern, lots of technical bells and whistles, great food, good service Cons: A bit pricey compared to other venues Kristin C. and I got married here the other day and we both were super happy about how everything turned out. This was our first venue that we saw. It also happened to be our last because everything looked so awesome. The venue is very modern. Might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I definitely like that look. I was impressed with all the technical details they have here too (i.e. hanging balls with mini LCD screens, different lighting colors, hidden projector screens, etc). The service staff here was pretty great too. The onsite coordinator, Keviann, was very helpful. She provided any info we needed and was quick to make any edits to any contracts in a timely manner. On the day of our wedding, she helped to make sure everything went without a hitch. I was a big fan of the food too. We had 2 entrees, a braised short rib and a roasted chicken. Both we're really good, but the I really enjoyed their chicken. Big fan of their onsite chef. Only downside is it's a little pricey compared to other venues. It was definitely a splurge, but I think in the end it was worth it. read more

This review is for a wedding of one of my dearest friends. She needed a venue very last minute, we are talking like 3 weeks. Seven degrees pulled through and delivered perfectly! Andi was the coordinator and she was SUPER helpful with everything. She was very accommodating and the whole day went off without a hitch! It looked as if the wedding was planned in a year!!! The newlyweds Tammie and Kevin, and her family were very happy and thankful for her help and making their day SUPER special! The decor, the food, everything was orderly and beautiful! Great job, and thank you for making Tammie and Kevin's day AMAZEBALLZ! read more

Just so so. Scott was a very bad co ordinator. The food was not good and it is very hard to walk from the upper reception area to dining area. I would not recommend it. read more

My wife and I had our wedding here in May, so here is our review broken into sections (see below): // The Venue We were looking for a venue that would give us the "feeling" for those who know what we are talking about. It's that gut feeling that puts a smile to your face. Well, this place encompassed what we were looking for plus more. Hidden away in a shopping center of sorts, it opens up to an amazing venue surrounded by the hills that makes Laguna beautiful. It is literally blocks from the water and the weather is amazing with that ocean breeze (cooler for sure at night). Simply look at some of the venue pictures as it has a modern appeal, yet provides an open canvas to make your even or wedding in our case, any way you want it. You can scale it back or take it as far as the venue will allow. It has a rooftop area where you can see the hills and an indoor area that has a horde of customization in terms of features. You can control the lighting, sound system is amazing, and they even have custom art work on the walls from various artists (continually cycled on the walls depending on when you have your event - near artists are always featured). // Sound System Hands down amazing. They have state-of-the-art equipment and our songs couldn't have sounded better. They have an on-site technician that knows the equipment so rest assured, you will be okay. We learned that your media needs to be in certain formats, so be sure you are clear on the requirements and plan in advance for the music elements. The coordinators and planners will help you on as I'll touch on that in the respective section. In short, the sound system was very high quality and definitely 10 times better than your typical DJ setup you see at many weddings. I am a music junkie and felt the trebles and bass throughout the venue, even on the rooftop during our cocktail hour! Amazing! // The Food + Drinks We had a lot of worries about the food to be honest. We OVER communicated on how we didn't want the typical wedding food and horrors you hear about. We told the amazing chef (Chef Robert is amazing!!!) about our concerns. We had a scheduled tasting in which we customized from the choices we had with our coordinator. By the way, you can fully customize the men to meet your needs and can take it as far as you want/need. We customized a few things and during the tasting day, we were BLOWN AWAY. We literally wanted to take it home to eat it was that good. We had a perfectly cooked filet, a vegetarian ratatouille (SO GOOD), and a sea bass that we turned into a Nobu-inspired recipe. Not to mention amazing starters. The bar was great and had everything we needed. They even offer custom cocktails that the bar staff can fix up, but we just went for the standard unlimited bar offering and it was amazing. // The Staff Note: Please do your homework, know what you want, and you will get what you expect. There are a lot of things you will miss but they planners (Andi and Keviann) and coordinators are extremely helpful. They have done hundreds and if not, thousands of events so they know the details. Be clear on what you expect from them and they will give you a breakdown on everything you will need. They have been great in terms of responding quickly and making sure you feel comfortable about everything. During the wedding, they helped with ensuring guests needed to be where they needed which took away the stress from our lovely day. The ladies run the show here and any of the staff members will go the extra mile for you (THANK YOU LADIES!). In summary, enjoy the road to the magical day. The staff here and venue will blow you away and give you the memories that are desired. The only regret we have is that we wish we could have made the day move slower. It was a blur as the time seems to move quickly. Make sure you have a great photographer and videographer to capture the moments you might miss. We can reflect back on having a dream wedding and it was because of the planning, venue, food, music, and our great guests. Look for yourself and talk to a planner/coordinator to answer your questions! You will be pleasantly surprised and blown away by the space! Highly recommended! read more

All I can say is they couldn't keep their time. It was scheduled for 5pm, but instead, they made us wait till 6pm, opening time. Crappy start! read more

We got married here. Everything ended up being fantastic. Every guest who has talked to us about it has told us in no uncertain terms that it was the best wedding they ever went to. They were willing to work with us on price so that we could have it there. Here's a tip, go with Friday or Sunday to save 60-70% on the Saturday mark-up prices. Everyone loved the food. I'm really picky but didn't want to mess up the standard "wedding fare" selections (albeit extremely well prepared wedding fare) and so the chef made me chocolate chip cookies to make sure I'd have something to eat. Andi was our coordinator and she was perfect. For all the work we did over the 15 month engagement, we would not have had nearly as good of a wedding without her work in the planning and execution of it. She got the particular variety of root beer that I like so I could toast people without having any alcohol. We were all extremely impressed. I really don't know what more there is to say or review, except to remind you that if you can afford it and you like the idea of seven degrees, you should book here. read more

Attended my friends wedding this weekend and I have to say it was one of the best weddings I've attended! Ceremony was set up beautifully outdoors with a tent. The weather was awesome so this made everything look great! Cocktail hour was on a red carpet, where we had the open bar. It was great seeing my college friends and the hors d'oeuvre they brought out were pretty good. Once we got to step into the reception area it was just beautiful! The food was buffet style and the drinks were still flowing! The wedding was going to plan and everyone was having a great time, and to end the night the sparklers were a nice touch! Very nice venue! read more

We looked at this place as a potential for our wedding venue. The location is in laguna beach, about 5-10 minutes from the sand. Initially it was difficult to find this place for us. The outside looked nice, but nothing too impressive. When we walked in, we were completely blown away by the venue. It is absolutely gorgeous inside, very modern and well decorated. You can tell that the place is new and well-kept. The person who showed us around was very friendly and pleasant. We were able to experience an outstanding sound and lighting system. I feel that any bride, especially one that is more modern and appreciates the arts, can have her dream wedding here. Why, do you then ask, did we not book here? It all comes to the cost. This place was more than double our reception budget, which unfortunately had to be on a saturday (it is cheaper to have it on a monday). We were willing to cut out a quarter of our guests to have our wedding at this location, and it was still far out of our price range. There were a lot of costs that we had not anticipated, including a mandatory wedding coordinator and sound system tech, which is understandably necessary for a place like this. Leaving this place, we commented to ourselves that if we had an unlimited budget wedding (we joked about buying lottery tickets afterwards), we would hands-down have it at this location, and that it would be the most memorable experience. Much nicer than the ritz or some other lame hotel. What a downer! read more

Had our wedding here in July. 10/10 for the Seven Degrees team, especially to Tiffany T., our coordinator. From our initial meeting to consultation sessions to the wedding date, Seven Degrees had been a great partner. The team was honest, accommodating, and professional. Tiffany was especially helpful in guiding us through the process. About food: fantastic selections. We chose the buffet/station option. The food got thumbs up from everyone, including my very picky Asian family. About the venue: I cannot say enough how beautiful the venue is. It is the perfect mix of elegance, modernity, and nature. I would recommend Seven Degrees to anyone's hosting a big event. read more

Attended a bridal expo at this venue was was very impressed ! The venue offers valet which makes parking convenient, and is quite large. The venue has both indoor and outdoor areas in which can be utilized at the clients discretion. The outdoor area was beautiful with fountains and little spots higher up that overlook Laguna. Great venue for a party, wedding or event ! Modern and chic for the contemporary consumer. read more

Seven-Degrees - Entrance - gorgeous chandelier! - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

Wow! What an amazing venue. I went to a wedding here awhile back and was blown away. When you drive up the exterior looks ok but once you enter inside is when you realize how amazing this venue is. Very modern looking. The area for the ceremony is kinda weird as you head towards the back of the venue first and afterwards back to the front for the cocktail hour and reception. Food at the reception was top notch as well as the service. Our salad course consisted of an arugula salad w/balsamic and prosciutto with tomato and mozzarella. So pretty to look at and delicious as well. For the main course I had the pistachio crusted sea bass and hubby had the filet mignon. Both were delicious. This venue seems very high tech. We were able to instantly tweet and/or instagram wedding photos and they would show up as a slideshow during the reception. read more

My husband and I held our wedding ceremony and reception at Seven-Degrees with Andi Gordon as our coordinator at the end of July 2013. It has been so difficult to write a review because everything went so spectacularly right, and so wonderfully perfect, that it's hard to know where to begin. The venue is modern, remarkably transformational, with state-of-the-art LED lighting, sound systems, various screens, monitors, and mini lcd globes. Very flexible with their ceiling and strung decor, and there's tons of options to entertain. It's a small and unassuming front entry, but a very friendly and attentive staff will escort your guests through walkways and windings to a beautiful garden rooftop terrace for ceremony and help older guests to the elevator, and you start to see how expansive the venue really is. Chef Robert dreams up very creative menu pieces and worked with us to customize a delicious hangar steak and macadamia nut crusted mahi-mahi double entrée plate that guests still rave about 2 months later. The hors d'oeuvres were very plentiful with a non stop stream of servers circulating through the entire crowd. My parents were worried that the food would be sparse, but it was abundant and delicious! Top shelf alcohol didn't mean Jameson whiskey but Glenn Livet 12! Impressive for your alcoholic guests. The venue can accommodate for a champagne greet, which is an excellent way to kick off a celebration! Seven-Degrees can be very comprehensive if you prefer, with their own design team for floral arrangements available, and they're worth the price they command - you get gorgeous, and very creative, precise, and flawless pieces that are worth every cent. Andi was an amazing coordinator to work with. Very well organized, remembered all our ideas, communicated well with our photographers, videographers, and DJ. Always quick to respond and provide layouts, ideas, examples, and be available to address and questions and concerns. We planned for a same-day-edit video with our videography team to be shown for our Grand Entrance, which required a phenomenal amount of time management, things to run smoothly technologically and cooperation with everyone involved, and it was pulled off flawlessly! Andi remained covert all night taking care of last minute items and paying attention to even the smallest details: we discovered half an hour before the ceremony that my dress was too restrictive to hop up on the stage, and she MacGyvered a discreet step for me at the last minute. She made sure our toasting glasses remain filled, that our timeline was followed, and folks were staged - truly the most professional production we've experienced that made the whole night. Seven-Degrees is worth every penny. Very high quality and exacting folks that helps your day run so smoothly you can truly take the time to soak up and celebrate the evening with confidence for a truly memorable experience. Thank you, Seven Degrees! read more

Let me start by saying that I was planning two weddings for our families. One in Laguna Beach for my side and one in Long Branch NJ near to were my husband grew up. This is not an easy task for someone who hadn't never planned an event for more than 30 people. Needless to say I had a lot on my plate. Seven-Degrees took the vision for our wedding and blew it up! Everything was above and beyond. Seriously, above and beyond. I actually cried ( joyful tears) when I saw the reception space. I thought I had a pretty wedding and party coming, but they gave me the party of my dreams. The lighting, the food, the artwork, it was perfect. I was planning from the east coast so our phone conversations and only two in person meetings were what we had to work with. AND THEY NAILED IT! There were a few glitches, what wedding doesn't have them, and every step of the way Andi Gordon, was there. She not only answered my families questions over and over and over again (probably the same three questions) she smoothed out any chance of disappointment for me. Played buffer to our awful DJ (it happens) , she ran her butt off making sure my husband and I had a wonderful time and we did. Alyssa (I might have misspelled her name) did an amazing job on the flowers, they were stunning and more than I could have asked for. Everyone from the bartenders, the servers, to the clean up crew were so nice and accommodating they made our day that much more special. There were many more people involved and I may not remember their names, but THANK YOU. Thank you for going above and beyond to make our CA wedding so beautiful and memorable. I cant wait to see our pictures! Dora, you have an amazing crew and a stunning venue! Thank you so much for everything. read more

Random people on facebook that have seen photos of our wedding have actually messaged me and said our wedding looked like a fairytale. And it was. The Seven Degrees staff outdid themselves. Keviann Lee was our onsite coordinator. She took our vision and ran with it. And it was more than I could ever dream of. If you want to see photos, feel free to message me. read more

I had the pleasure of hosting a client appreciation dinner at Seven-Degrees recently. The setting is tucked away in Laguna Canyon and has that special hidden gem factor that makes it unique and special. There is a lovely terrace with a beautiful water feature and market lighting that was perfect for our intimate dinner. We worked with Jessica and she was phenomenal. Even with a short turnaround time (we booked only 7 days before the event!) she made the whole process of finalizing the layout, furniture, event flow, and menu/bar selections stress-free. The day of the event, the entire staff made set-up very easy and they were always within reach if I needed any assistance with unloading. Chef Craig prepared an amazing meal for our guests and staff and we got many positive comments on the food, drinks and service. We can't wait to host another event with Seven-Degrees or one of their other beautiful venues! read more

We loved having our wedding here. We worked with Keviann as our coordinator and I don't think we could have asked for anyone better. She was receptive to my many emails and questions, and made sure the wedding planning process was painless. She was in touch with all our vendors and made sure everything and everyone was on time and worked well. She made the night go by so flawlessly that people still ask me who planned our timeline. She made sure everything was perfect that day. Seven degrees was a beautiful site. The lights, the sound, the venue. I can't imagine getting married anywhere else. Everyone is still talking about how classy and beautiful the site was. It felt like you were at a 5 star resort away from the world even though you are in a city. They also did the catering. The food was amazing. We did a tasting before hand and it was all great. The day of, everyone loved the food and there was plenty to go around. People are still talking about the food. We originally planned on having our wedding at a different location, but after they cancelled on us we luckily found Seven degrees. They made our wedding beautiful and painless. They take care of everything by giving you a planner. the in-house food/alcohol/lights/sound makes all the hard part of planning a simple as it takes. I am so thankful for this site!!!! I just wish i can talk one of my friends into getting married here in the future so we can actually enjoy the wedding as a guest! read more

We recently got married at Seven Degrees and we could not have been happier with our choice and especially our coordinator - Malak and her day of assistant - Karina. Malak was extremely professional and prompt and put us at ease throughout the process. She was very kind and sweet and spoke up only twice when she thought it might be a better advice (ie. Hiring a driver to drive us away instead of driving ourselves home after wedding). The venue was beautiful and all our guests were floored by the location and the venue's natural beauty. The winner was the food though for our guests. Everyone RAVED about this being the best wedding food ever because wedding food typically does not taste good. Many guests said the potatoes were to die for in the buttery sauce. They also enjoyed the steak in the paprika sauce and the mahi mahi in the sweet chili sauce. Even the kids loved their truffle mac and cheese with the shoestring fries and the parents were very grateful and delighted. The desserts of crème brulee and chocolate mousse were a hit too and could pass in replacement of wedding cake even though we had all 3. Many guests wanted to seconds because the food was so good but were too bashful to go up for seconds or too stuffed! Prior to the wedding, Malak was very helpful in guiding our large expansive family of almost 50 in our bridal suite to guide them back to the front lobby to give the bride and groom some time before the wedding and kept everything running on-time! We were pretty amazed our wedding completed without a hitch even through the sparkler exit. During the reception, Malak, was very good at helping our immediate family out in certain needs ie. Finding my sister-in-law when her 5-month-old needed her attention or finding the groom when the consumption bar needed to be re-filled. She also was good at making sure we ate when we had the chance and guided us on how to cut the cake. Malak was amazing and we are so happy we got to work with her on our big day, she was a pure delight. read more

We had our wedding at Seven-Degrees this past Saturday and it was absolutely PERFECT! My husband and I are so happy with how everything turned out. This was the third place we checked out when we were searching for a venue and I fell in love immediately. My only concern was being able to afford such a beautiful venue but they were able to work with our budget! We did our due diligence and checked out a few other venues but my heart was set on Seven-Degrees and I'm so happy I listened to it. Alyssa Kayo and Calya McLaughlin did an amazing job putting this wedding together in two short months. Everything was beautiful and we received so many compliments on how gorgeous and well-organized the wedding was. Thank you so much for all the hard work you girls put into this event, for being so nice to work with and helping us out with alphabetizing our name cards (something we were responsible for), getting me tea with honey when I needed it as I was still recovering from a cold, and just making this whole process so easy for us - we couldn't be more grateful! We also received a lot of compliments on the food - thank you Chef Robert! We didn't have a tasting prior to the wedding but the chef assured me that they used the best of the best ingredients and gave me so many options to choose from and made great recommendations. Along with other yelp reviews, I felt confident the food would be great and we were not disappointed! We didn't get a chance to eat the food the night of so they packaged it up for us and we had it the next day for dinner - it was still so delicious! My husband was also very impressed with the bar and how well the drinks were mixed. Thank you Seven-Degrees and your entire staff for making our special day a dream come true! read more

We had our dream wedding at Seven-Degrees! Kathryn Towers was an incredible wedding coordinator, we couldn't have done it without her!

My husband and I got married September 22, 2012 at Seven-Degrees. And to start I will say we could NOT have picked a better venue! Why this venue was PERFECT: *Our on-site coordinator! Keviann Lee went above and beyond to make this day special for us. We felt as though we were her biggest priority and making our big day just what we wanted was her main goal! She is so extremely professional and kind and just on top of it. We did not hire a coordinator to help us plan anything we decided we wanted to do all the details and having her help along the way was the best choice we made! *The venue- every guest commented on how "different" it was from any other wedding they have attended. It was edgy and unique and exactly the look we were going for. The lighting package (was extra $) but was a hit with EVERYONE! The lighting made all the difference in the pictures and video and I recommend it to the fullest! We were married on the terrace (on the roof) outside at sunset and the weather, lighting, ambiance was just amazing! Our reception was in their media lounge which is so completely different from any other venue, it was priceless! *The food- WOW!!! Everything was so delicious from the appetizers served during cocktail, to the salads and main courses! Everyone ranted about how good it all was! Which is a big plus when having 200+ guests. The chef even greeted every table and asked if he could get anyone anything else to make their time more enjoyable. That was such a nice touch! Keviann and the staff made our day such a memorable one! We couldn't have had a better wedding. I'm so pleased to have the memories we do at Seven Degrees and I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for something different and unique! It was better than anything we could have ever dreamed for! read more

My ex-girlfriend Jenny and I were married at Seven-Degrees back in September. Of all the things we planned for our wedding, having it at Seven-Degrees was probably the best decision we made. The venue is amazing: from the driveway, to the main room, to the rooftop terrace everything was top notch. The food was spectacular: we received nothing but praise for the food that was served that night. (In fact, people are still mentioning the short ribs.) There are many amazing things that the venue offered and delivered for us in spades, but the main reason why we sing its praises is the awesome people that we worked with at Seven-Degrees. My ex-fiancée and I wanted to throw a non-traditional carnival-inspired wedding that was essentially a cavalcade of just random things we enjoy. Basically, it was a chaotic mess of an idea but it was a fun mess. On top of that, we tried to design and make as much as we possibly could ourselves. Obviously this was a recipe for frustration and potential disaster but we were extremely fortunate to have Seven-Degree's event coordinator Morgan Smith help us out. She is an absolute gem. She was there whenever we needed advisement, was willing to help us out with whatever strange request we had (which there were many), and was very knowledgeable and accommodating during the planning process. With Morgan's help we felt like we were able to take care of most if not all the things we had on our to-do list, and honestly felt great going into the actual day of the wedding. I can't begin to stress how important that was for our sanity. During the wedding day itself, everyone at Seven-Degrees were phenomenal. Morgan and her team set up everything perfectly and used their expertise to call the right audibles when needed. Some things looked better than we had even planned! Logistically, everything from setting up the venue, the timing of the event, and the service itself were impeccable; however, it were the smaller things that Morgan did for us that day that really stood out. Morgan made sure to remind and give us moments to breathe, relax, take a break, grab a bite to eat, grab a drink, enjoy life, etc. It were these nuanced personal touches that really made us believe that we absolutely made the right choice with Seven-Degrees. Because of the awesome job Morgan and the staff did for us, the night went off swimmingly, and we're lucky to able to remember that night forever fondly, free of any mishaps or incidents. I can't possibly think of anything else we could have asked for. So to everyone at Seven-Degrees (especially Tabitha, Katie, Tim and of course Morgan), thank you so so much, my now-wife and I are eternally grateful. read more
