La Ventura Event Center

We just got married at La Ventura last month and it was an absolute dream! The owner and team are kind and professional, and they work hard to make sure your wedding runs smoothly. I was slightly worried about the compact nature of the venue, but that ended up being one of our favorite things about it on the wedding day! The space feels personal and intimate, and the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces flow together seamlessly. The colors and the lighting at the venue make for incredible photos, and they even bring you down to the beach for photos, which was so fun! La Ventura has their own bar and food catering and it is both convenient and incredible. The food was so good, and our guests have been raving about the dinner, drinks, and service of the staff. We are so glad we chose La Ventura as our wedding venue and would recommend this beautiful space to anyone looking to get married in San Clemente or Orange County!

La Ventura Event Center is an absolute dream for weddings! The Spanish-style architecture, intimate courtyard, and warm lighting create the perfect romantic backdrop for photos. As a wedding photographer, I appreciate how seamless the venue flow is, making it easy to capture every special moment. The staff is professional, accommodating, and truly cares about making the day perfect. Highly recommend this venue for couples looking for a charming and elegant setting!

La Ventura is an absolute hidden gem. We were looking to have a micro wedding with only 50 people and this place had the perfect package. They also accommodate larger regular sized wedding. The venue is so beautiful on its own. Such incredible backgrounds for wedding photos. Amy, Mackenzie, and the team were so incredible to work with. I felt like a princess on my wedding day - everyone so nice and willing to help with anything I needed. We received so many compliments on our venue and the food and cocktails were incredible. The space is so accommodating to any type of vendor you want to bring in for your wedding. Our wedding day was an absolute dream and would recommend this venue to anyone getting married!

Great venue no one knows about......🙏🙏🙏

La Ventura was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn’t be more thankful to have found them. Amy and Mackenzie were a pleasure to work with and were always available for questions or to talk through any options. They were conscious of our budget and one of the only venues that gave us an accurate picture up front of what our financial commitment would be. On our wedding day, all their staff were exceptional. They never missed an opportunity to congratulate us or compliment us (which as a bride, was so thoughtful and made me feel amazing). They took care of our guests and made everything feel seamless. I also have to thank Amy for introducing us to our coordinator, Ashley. She was the glue to this whole process and ensured this day felt magical. Thank you all!

We want to THANK La Ventura Event Center for an amazing wedding this past weekend! The staff was unbelievable, every detail was met to our desire! Thank you Amy for taking care of every detail. You provided a wonderful wedding experience for our daughter!!! We love your venue, your family has done an amazing job making it a wonderful experience!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DID!!!!

Beautiful Wedding Venue

Excellent Service

We held my daughter's wedding here recently and I can't say enough nice things about the venue, staff, and management. When my daughter was looking for the location for her wedding, she asked for a beautiful location with delicious food. La Ventura was everything she wanted and more. From the very first meeting onsite their team was kind and easy to work with. Their communication through the entire process kept everything moving smoothly and ensured nothing was missed. On the day of the event, our guests were absolutely blown away. The food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. We received so many complements... The team working our event were responsive to every request and they were genuinely kind humans which made the day that much more special. Thank you to La Ventura for a perfect day!

Forster Ranch Education Foundation hosted their annual Friends of FREF Spring Gala and Auction this year at La Ventura Event Center, and all of our guests fell in love with this venue. Our "Run for the Roses" Kentucky Derby theme event dazzled at this event space, and the venue was so welcoming to all of our ideas and went above and beyond to create a wonderful evening that helped to raise much needed funds for our local public schools. La Ventura staff and chef created a unique menu that featured some delicious southern style cuisine where our guests went back for more than one helping. The outdoor patio area was perfect for cocktail hour and holding our silent auction, and of course, the dance floor was perfect for our 170 plus guests. We look forward to our next gala happening at La Ventura next spring!
