    Shirin S.

    We hosted our wedding welcome party at the Shindy! The venue was beautiful, spotless, and perfect for our event! We had about 70 guests and used the full space. Our contact, Bre, was very helpful and responsive. We had a DJ, tacos, and a mobile bartender, and they all had great experiences with the venue as well. Would highly highly recommend hosting at this space.

    We had the most wonderful experience hosting our micro wedding at this venue! We only used half the Shindy and the space itself was perfect, well-maintained, and just the right size for our group of about 30-35 guests. It felt intimate without ever being cramped, which was exactly what we were hoping for. Even had a lot of room to dance! *alcohol and smoking is permitted, (obviously confirm if any changes) valet available for parking, and a hotel (Ramada) right across the street! 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. We'd absolutely recommend it to anyone planning a small, meaningful gathering!

    The Shindy's 1st Birthday!

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.

I contacted them on a Sunday morning and they responded within the hour. That afternoon they were able to show us the space at the Gray Matter Museum. 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.

    Our daughter had her wedding at The Harper last weekend and we are still on cloud nine from the…read moreamazing experience we had there. We had about 200 guests and a very packed agenda and literally everything was perfect. Flo was an absolute gem to work with. She is so detailed oriented, had such great suggestions, and literally made sure that everything went off without a hitch. She remembered even the smallest details which was very important to me. Everything that she promised me actually did happen! So many of our guests said that this was the best wedding they've ever been to and I think 90% of the guests were there up until the very end. We have a lot of foodies in our family and they were all raving about the food. And DJ Montessa did such a great job not only as our MC but also understanding the kind of music that the bride and groom wanted. This is the second Wedgewood wedding we've had in our family and I highly recommend not only the Harper but Wedgewood Weddings as well.

Flo was our coordinator assistant, and she was absolutely amazing. She was attentive throughout the entire day, consistently checked in with us to make sure we were doing okay, and did a great job keeping everything on schedule. We truly appreciated how supportive and organized she was! The Banquet Captain Blu and the bartender were also incredibly kind and helpful. Everyone we interacted with made us feel well taken care of. The one major disappointment was the DJ. Unfortunately, the audio wasn't working for the first five minutes of our ceremony, which took away from an important moment. She also did not play all of the songs from our "must play" list. This was a huge letdown that this unfortunately kept our wedding day from being perfect and as seamless as we had hoped. Other than the DJ, we loved the venue and were extremely happy with Wedgewood. We highly recommend having your wedding here, maybe just book your own DJ :)

    Our wedding venue search scattered in Southern California included: vineyards/wineries, urban lofts…read morein Downtown LA, country clubs, hotels, private estates, and beach clubs. After doing a seemingly endless amount of site visits, we came across Fete the Venue. Did it have the picturesque vineyard in the background? No. Instead, I was safe from insects all day, especially mosquitoes. Could I hear the waves hitting the shoreline? No, but I heard my wife's vows clearly during the outdoor ceremony and didn't worry about my hair going rogue in the breeze. Unfortunately, I had attended outdoor weddings that had limited ability to come up with a contingency plan. This detail was important for us to keep in mind when selecting a venue. It was also important that we had the flexibility in selecting our vendors, including our late night bites. With some vision, creativity, and a fabulous wedding coordinator, our wedding was truly memorable.

    Disclaimer: this is a review as a guest, not as someone who rented out this place as I'm reading…read moreover the reviews. ------------------ Stumbling in on an overcast day, in my suit with an oversized wedding gift, we arrived at Fete the venue in Costa Mesa. Parking was limited as such is the venue but it makes sense as it was an intimate gathering for close friends. After checking in, we were enjoying Furiwa catering out in the courtyard. Allow me to set the scene, vintage glass lights crisscrossed the horizon, surrounded by modern wooden fence and lush green lawn. Makes for a scenic backdrop for memorable pictures. Now on to the food, furiwa's fried shu mai is the most SCRUMPTIOUS food you will ever taste! It was crunchy, rich in umami flavor in the center, with a kick of spice before BLOSSOMING into a subtle, delicate sweet aftertaste. If Willy Wonka made Dim Sun, this ever changing Shu Mai would be it! 100 Willy Wonkas out of 10 rating. The egg roll was also good but not as great. 3/5 stars even though it made for a very nice picture! The inside of fete was like a warehouse which is so cool for wedding reception these days. Fete being French for a great celebration or feast is appropriately named as the venue provided for a nice, intimate, but wild atmosphere. The bar in the back is permanent and provided lots of drinks such as midori sour, old fashioned, cranberry/pineapple vodka, Cuba libre. All in all, 5/5 stars for this venue!

This venue provides that and then some. We spent over 8 hours here and not a single child wanted to go home. Whether they were climbing the rock wall, shooting baskets on the mini hoop, ping pong or just playing in the tents setup there is fun for kids of all ages. There are so many amenities on this property from bbq pits, refrigerator, coolers a bar for eating and drinks. A stage with karaoke mic if you're party is taking it to the next level. So many at the event asked about how we found the place. I'm sure this isn't the last time we'll be here, for a friends party or another one of our get togethers....it's that special!

Our server Peter was so kind and friendly and made our whole experience by making sure we were comfortable by bringing us a heater, water and anything else we needed. Fries were crispy and delicious and i appreciate the various dipping sauces - ranch, garlic aioli, & ketchup. The pizza was wood fired and the crust was so wonderfully charred and fluffy at the same time. The tiramisu was just perfect, but please note that they have a seasonal menu so they will rotate these items out. Will definitely be back before this dessert is gone!

    Our family recently celebrated our son's HS graduation party at XO Lounge. We had a wonderful…read morebeginning-to-end experience that included incredibly responsive, thorough, and professional communication with Jamie--the main contact in charge of booking, planning, and operational oversight. On the day of the event, Hope, Hai, Lola (bartender) and the remaining staff were unbelievably helpful, accommodating--and integral to our efficient set-up and smooth execution of a successful celebration. XO Lounge is a very posh venue with modern décor. The nightclub vibe and setup provided the core foundation--that minimized decorative needs for our graduation-themed event. Our event hosted approximately 150 guests--that we comfortably housed in the smaller nightclub event area. Despite opting out of seated dining, our area easily accommodated our guests with the use of the booths and lounge-style sofa set-up for central-space seating. We still had surplus space leftover--that was allocated for the dance floor and bar area. The nightclub further opens into an enclosed courtyard--allowing for additional cocktail tables, bar stools, and lounge-roaming for our guests. Our party featured a standard photo-booth setup with an 8-ft props table--as well as a 360-spinning video-booth in the front entryway lobby area (just to the left of entrance). Our 360-video-booth included an inflatable enclosure--that successfully fit in the entryway alcove. Our rented XO Lounge space features a stage with a floor-to-ceiling TV-grid. This large multi-screen TV--along with dozens of TVs lining the entire room-walls--cycled a slideshow of our graduate's photos throughout the evening. XO Lounge further features a full PA system, DJ plug-ins for surround sound (you must provide your own DJ/music/equipment), full nightclub equipment (e.g. spinning disco-ball light machines, fog machines, laser strobing, etc.), full bar & bartender staff, etc. I LOOVED that XO included all the needed tables of various lengths and sizes--with fitted fabric *tablecloths* included. Fabric tablecloths may seem like a minimal feature, but fitted cloth coverings elevate a sophisticated aesthetic while alleviating the patron from the added costs for these supplies. Hope oversaw our function and was so attentive--always offering to help with literally *anything*--to reduce stress for the hosts (I really appreciated that!). The venue was surprisingly affordable--with a nominal outside-catering fee; the staff were professional and delightful; and the party space and outdoor-courtyard areas fit our guests, photo/video-booths, food vendors, Welcome table, Sweets table, and largescale Balloon Arch. XO Lounge features one-stop-shop booking and planning services for all party needs, (i.e. catering, decoration, DJ, photo-booth vendors, etc.)--though we did not partake of these additional offerings. Hosting an event on this scale is stressful (IYKYK), but this venue and staff minimized the stress and streamlined our experience for a fantastic celebration. Our family would definitely book with XO lounge again for future event planning needs--and would highly recommend to our friends, family, and others. Our guests had the BEST time; and we had a GREAT PARTY celebrating our newest grad!

The day of the shower went perfectly and we got so many compliments from our guests about the venue! We're so happy we chose this place for such a special day and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a venue. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
