Venues to look into!

Padua Hills Theatre






Muckenthaler Mansion





Lindley Scott House and Gardens







The Chart House - Redondo beach

The Chart House - Redondo Beach
- it's a restaurant
** We haven't spoken to anyone about this venue
- however we did get a little information - and I don't think this venue will work for us.

It sounds like the restaurant during the day can accommodate a large party, but the evening will not be able to accommodate all of us!
plus we would have to get married inside in a small corner of the restaurant!  not very romantic!

I'm not really sure the place looks like this inside! haha



however, here they have a picture of getting married on the beach!  I don't know if the restaurant offers this or if we have to go through someone else.  But regardless, I don't think it's what we are looking for.


Redondo Beach Historic Library

Redondo Beach Historic Library was a beautiful location as well.  
Everything takes place indoors - however, you have a view of the ocean.
** we haven't spoken to anyone about this venue just yet!






maybe they do do ceremonies outside!

The Grand in Long Beach

The Grand is a convenient location with reasonable prices.  Great packages!





I loved the terrace and the room attached to it.  the room was a funky shape, but the terrace was my favorite part of the place.
We can have the reception outside if we like, but traditionally they have the ceremony outside and the reception inside.  However, they can accommodate the party being outside.  =)
I think it would be pretty damn cool to put lounge chairs outside or inside.  =)

Los Verdes Golf Course

Beautiful Location

1 wedding takes place in location

Can get married on terrace with view of the ocean -- but we prefer the 10th tee which is on the grass with a view of the ocean.

Terrace wedding ceremony

and then we can take awesome pictures like this...

reception hall - does have windows that look out to the golf course and ocean
