My husband and I just got married on 10/25/25 at Talega and I don't have enough wonderful things to say about this venue and its team! Michael was incredible and made the day seamless and magical. Everything was perfect and well organized and on time! We felt so secure and taken care of! Michael was so good with communication and clear about expectations from the beginning. And so helpful! And his list of preferred vendors was spectacular! We got all our vendors from his list and it made all the difference !!! They were all phenomenal and knew eachother and knew talega really well so it made Everything so smooth! And the photos came out stunning. This venue is beautiful and it was recently remodeled this year so it looked extra polished and gorgeous! Also the food was incredible! We got so many compliments on the food. Anyways can't say enough good things :)

Golf cart

Me and my buddy (two sum play) had a twilight tee time. After the 10th hole our cart battery died. To make the story short, we ended up pushing the cart for the next two holes and let more than a couple of groups pass us to keep up with the game pace with the others. Everyone ( including the groups ahead and back of us) called the club house several times, but no one answered and no return calls. Therefore, we got so tired from pushing the car especially the uphill and decided to abandon the cart and started working through 11th~16th hole without knowing which way is the short cut to the club house. At this point, we weren't thinking about playing. Trust me. It was getting dark and we were starting to worry that if no one can help us. Luckily, we ran into the four sum joined group had an extra cart and they let us borrow a cart on16th hole. Folks, same thing happened to at this course 4 yrs ago and I would never thought it would happen to me again !! Miss judgements !! Don't get me wrong. I love ro play in this course, but the management needs to control the employees and pay attention to figure out an issue that never fixed. I also heard from few other groups said the same thing. They need to make some changes.

Talega Golf Club was beyond what my husband and I could've ever imagined for our wedding last October! The venue is gorgeous, the food was amazing, and we have nothing but incredible things to say about Michael, the event coordinator. He was also our day-of coordinator, and he, alongside his incredible assistant Myra, truly made the day unforgettable. Michael and Myra's attention to detail and dedication to us on and before our big day was outstanding - we felt so well-taken care of, and we knew the day would go off without a hitch because of them. Our appreciation for Michael and Myra are endless! Their wedding package inclusions made our planning process so seamlessly easy! The choices for linens, tables, chairs, etc are all gorgeous and just what we wanted for our big day. The courtyard where we had the ceremony was clean and well-kept, and had the perfect backdrop for our altar. The cocktail area was gorgeous and had plenty of options for seating or standing without feeling cramped. The reception area was perfect for dinner and dancing - there was plenty of room for all of our tables, dance floor, bar, and DJ booth! Dinner selections were inclusive to all diets and we still get complements on how incredible the food was - we totally agree (best food we've ever had at a wedding, and that's not even us being bias lol). All of the waiters/bartenders were so sweet and made sure our guests were well-taken care of all evening. My husband and I will always have nothing but amazing things to say about Talega, Michael, and all of the wonderful staff. Thank you for making our special day even more amazing!

See all

We recently had the opportunity to DJ an event at The Fish Tank in Capistrano Beach (34233 Via…read moreSanta Rosa, Dana Point), and it immediately impressed us. Start with the owner. Cate is professional, responsive, and genuinely collaborative. Communication is clear. Load-in is organized. The space is clean and well maintained. When a venue runs this smoothly, it reduces friction for vendors and creates a better experience for clients and guests. That kind of operational competence doesn't happen by accident. The design is what makes this venue distinct. The short-throw projectors transform the walls into a fully immersive aquarium or fishbowl environment. It's not a novelty effect; it's a production tool. For weddings, the room can feel atmospheric and romantic. For corporate events, branded visuals wrap the space in a way that feels custom and high-end. Few venues at this size offer that level of visual flexibility. From an audio standpoint, the room performs extremely well. We run MagiCali, a Southern California mobile DJ company specializing in weddings and corporate events, and we evaluate every room through a production lens. We look at ceiling height, wall material, reflection patterns, power distribution, and how low-end energy travels across a dancefloor. We've worked in luxury ballrooms, outdoor coastal venues, private estates, and converted industrial spaces. The Fish Tank is one of the rare venues where you don't have to compensate for the room. Speeches are articulate and easy to understand. Dinner music sits comfortably without overwhelming conversation. When it's time to transition into dancing, the room holds energy evenly instead of creating hot spots or dead zones. That tells you the space was built and tuned with care. For clients, that technical quality translates into confidence. You don't have to worry about muddy sound during toasts or harsh reflections once the music turns up. The venue supports the event instead of fighting it. There are many event spaces in Orange County. Very few combine strong visual identity, flexible projection capability, solid acoustics, and hands-on ownership. The Fish Tank is an undiscovered gem, and for what Cate currently charges, it represents exceptional value. It would not be surprising to see this venue commanding significantly higher rates in the near future. If you're planning a wedding, private celebration, or corporate event in Dana Point or Capistrano Beach, this space deserves serious consideration. It's distinctive, technically sound, and professionally run -- exactly the kind of venue that allows a well-executed event to shine.

We truly could not have asked for a better venue owner than Cate for our son's wedding. From the…read morevery beginning, she was warm, kind, and genuinely invested in making the day special. She went above and beyond in ways both big and small, and it made all the difference. Her space is absolutely beautiful. It has such an artsy, welcoming feel and was perfect for our 80 person reception. The lighting created a magical atmosphere, the sound system worked flawlessly, and the indoor outdoor flow gave guests room to mingle, relax, and celebrate comfortably. One of the most generous touches was allowing us to use her home for staging the bride and groom. That level of trust and hospitality meant so much to our family. Throughout the entire process, she was accommodating, helpful, and always available with a calm, reassuring presence. If you are looking for a venue with heart, creativity, and an owner who truly cares, this is it. We are so grateful for everything she did to make the celebration unforgettable.

Everywhere you look, you could find something from modern, farmhouse, Bohemian, vintage, any style and any color you could imagine, you can find it here. My all-time favorite thing that will stick with me for years to come. I fell in love with a floral plate that they had gotten in, and I had to ask them to order eight plates. Unfortunately, they were not able to do that, but they did gift me the plate on my wedding day! That is now a very special memory and plate that I will treasure for years to come! Thank you so much Sundrop vintage. I cannot thank you guys enough for everything that you did for me throughout our many decorating walk-throughs and our final mock up and for my wonderful plate.

Ann was incredibly responsive and reliable throughout the process. At one point, she quickly stepped in to resolve an administrative issue involving another vendor--something that wasn't even her responsibility--and handled it efficiently and professionally. Her willingness to help and ability to problem-solve made a stressful situation much easier. The quality of both the furniture and the service was excellent. We would have loved to source our flatware through them as well if we had been able to. Overall, Sundrop Vintage was absolutely worth the long-haul fees, and we highly recommend them.

This review is way over due as well…read more I had to find a new venue at the last minute for my son's 18th birthday. I found The Event Loft/Gray Matter Museum through an online search. Venue. Gray Matter museum is beautiful. It's classy, white and modern; the perfect place to decorate to fit any occasion. This place is a gem. Food. Because we were on a budget, Adina suggested hors d'ouvres. They were clever, and delicious, and the teenage guests had more than enough food that evening. Staff. Adina and her staff were professional and helpful. Adina worked with me to create the perfect surprise party for my son. She's amazing, and was sincerely concerned in making my event perfect.

Our coordinator Stephanie was very communicative throughout the entire planning process and did a great job of walking us through all the details to bring our vision to life (all while staying within our budget). The ceremony décor and florals exceeded my expectations. The indoor space is super modern and had plenty of space for guests to hang out and mingle. We had our dinner and reception indoors with about 60 guests, which was great for a group of our size. On the wedding day, Adina and her team were so organized and made sure our guests were seamlessly transitioned from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. Adina was very attentive, for example when the bustle on my dress broke, she was quick to arrive with safety pins to help pin it back up. We did the buffet taco bar and she made sure to grab us a plate so we could focus on enjoying dinner with our guests. The food was fantastic and everyone was well fed. The entire staff made sure we were taken care of throughout the entire night. Special shoutout to DJ Mark for his fun energy and bringing the dance floor to life. Our photographer Trisha captured the ceremony and reception beautifully, I was blown away by how wonderful our pictures turned out and how quickly she got them back to us. The staff at Gray Matter really went above and beyond to make our day special. Highly recommend this venue!!!

The venue itself is beautiful, and our wedding day was perfect. Unfortunately, our experience…read moreworking with our main point of contact, Ciara, was extremely disappointing. Communication leading up to our wedding was consistently poor. Emails and messages often went unanswered for days, which created a lot of unnecessary anxiety during an already stressful time. During our final walkthrough, Ciara reassured us that we would not be rushed to remove our belongings after the wedding and could even return Monday or Tuesday. She specifically shared that she had been rushed after her own wedding at this venue and did not want to do that to us. Unfortunately, the day after our wedding, that is exactly what happened. Our vendor arrived during the 12-2 p.m. pickup window we were given, only to find the venue locked. After multiple unanswered calls and texts, Ciara arrived nearly an hour later, resulting in our vendor charging us for the wait. At that same time, we were suddenly told all of our belongings needed to be removed that day, giving us essentially an hour to figure it out; completely contradicting what we had been told during our final walkthrough. Our wedding itself was wonderful, but the lack of communication and follow-through caused so much unnecessary stress before and immediately after it. As beautiful as the space is, based on our experience with management, we would not host another event here or recommend it to friends or family.

The food, bartenders, DJ, setup, etc were all wonderful and exactly what we asked for. The venue is absolutely stunning with a beautiful view of the ocean and sunset during dinner, and, I'm biased, but this was the prettiest wedding venue I have personally been to. The staff at the venue was very friendly and also through the company that owns the venue, called 24 Carrots. They were very easy to work with and flexible with just about everything, including last minute set up changes and altering our payment plan. They are very responsive through email and easy to communicate with. We were pleasantly surprised to find no hidden charges or other sneaky things on our bill because while preparing for our wedding, we had read plenty of horror stories about other venues online! From our perspective, 24 Carrots and Ole Hanson were completely upfront about everything from the beginning and all-in-all, the price was reasonable for a beachside California Saturday wedding based on estimates that we received from other venues. Highly recommend this venue and working with this company as they provide excellent and trustworthy service!

The Spanish-style steps are really neat and the view that overlooks the beach is something else. Bear in mind there are noise ordinances in place that are pretty darn strict: the processional music is going to be quiet, and the wrap time is 10 PM (if not a little before) to ensure that the neighbors don't complain. The inside area where the dancing is can get pretty hot and steamy and the ordinance forbids having the doors open to air the place out. But the view/grandeur of the space to cost ratio is pretty unbeatable, just hope that there aren't any trains passing by during important parts of the ceremony! Would love to come back for another wedding!

***This review is for Carvana PPA Tour Event only held at Life Time***…read more My eldest daughter and I returned to Life Time to watch the Select Medical Orange County Cup this past June 2025. It's always nice to come here and be spectators on some amazing pro pickleball matches. We only attended the Semi-Finals on Saturday and Championship Finals on Sunday. It is so much fun to watch great pickleball showcased by Anna Leigh Waters, Anna Bright, Catherine Parenteau, Rachel Rohrabacher, Jorja Johnson, Tyra Black, Parris Todd, Ben Johns, Gabriel Tardio, Hayden Patriquin, Federico Staksrud, JW Johnson, CJ Klinger, Connor Garnett, and many other players. I normally don't watch the amateurs play. However, one day, I would like to compete in the amateur circuit just to experience it at least once. If I really like it, then I may continue it for longer period of time. The only gripe I have at this event is the limited food options they offer. I feel they need to offer more from Life Cafe or have some food trucks come through. I understand space is limited, but they can fit about two or three food trucks on site IMHO. Hope they will make some changes to this venue in the near future. On the bright side, the free shuttle from and to Outlets of San Clemente is great. It's a well oiled system. The drivers are always pleasant and nice. Thank you to all the drivers for their great service! Till the next pickleball tourney... let's play pickleball!
