La Venta Inn 

5.0

Palos Verdes Estates, CA
  • Venue
  • Up to 180 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Made by Meg is proud to continue the legacy of the historic La Venta Inn nestled in the hills of Palos Verdes Estates. La Venta Inn has enjoyed a full, rich history on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Nationally recognized as a California Point of Historical Interest, the Inn dates back to the early 1920’s, when a group of international businessmen set out to develop the ‘ideal residential community.’ The landmark ocean view estate is a beautifully restored 1920’s Spanish villa and used to entertain guests from the world over through exceptional weddings and events. We are thrilled to bring the delicious Made by Meg cuisine and our incredible hospitality to this one of a kind property.

We got married at La Venta Inn in September 2024 and it was truly everything we could have asked for. The centerpiece here, and a large part of why we chose this venue, is the spectacular view overlooking the ocean which made for such beautiful pictures. Besides the natural beauty of the area, the building itself is a historic villa which felt cozy and intimate and yet comfortably accommodated our guest count of 100. Savannah was our contact person and was very responsive to emails, including some last minute seating changes we had in the weeks leading up to the wedding La Venta works exclusively with Made by Meg for catering - Kat was our contact person and was fantastic to work with. Note that they do not allow outside food vendors, but they were able to accommodate some of our special requests such as requests to source a specific brand of ice cream so that we could make our wedding unique to us. We got so many compliments from our guests on how delicious the food was. The other exclusive vendor that they are contracted with is Vox DJs. This is the only vendor that we had a less than stellar experience with. They performed their duties fine on the day of the wedding, with the exception of forgetting to set up the dance lights we had paid for, but the communication and planning leading up the wedding did not go as smoothly as I hoped, and I wish that we had the flexibility to go with a DJ company of our own choosing. However I understand the restrictions given that La Venta is a historic site. Overall, our wedding at La Venta was memorable, beautiful, and we would recommend them to anyone looking for a gorgeous venue with spectacular ceremony views. With a venue like this, you really only need a good florist (we used Flowernoon Shop) and a talented photographer (June Choi Photography) to bring out the natural beauty of the venue - you really don't need a lot of other rentals, draping, etc. We are so happy we had our wedding here!

We work with brides to create their DREAM wedding day look that will be stunning on camera/HD, last all night long, and allow our brides to feel like themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve always loved hair and makeup, so getting it professionally done was one of the things I was most excited about for my wedding. Choosing a HMU artist was overwhelming, especially with so many highly recommended options. Emily Lynn & Co. stood out to me because of their natural approach. Their website had an editorial yet relaxed and fun vibe that resonated with me. As a graphic designer, a beautifully designed brand and website played a big role in all my vendor decisions—but Emily Lynn & Co.'s work truly spoke for itself. I had the pleasure of working with Colette as my lead artist, and I can’t recommend her enough. She made the trial experience so comfortable by coming to my apartment, which was so nice. Colette really understood my vision—I wanted to look like myself, not too overdone, but with a touch of soft glam, and she nailed it perfectly. I also had Josie do hair for a few wedding party members, and everyone looked incredible. The atmosphere while getting ready was fun yet wonderfully calm. I highly recommend Emily Lynn & Co. to anyone looking for a top-notch HMU team!

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I highly recommend Susie Hansen and her Latin band. They are a five star band in all categories. Susie and her band made everyone at our wedding feel very comfortable, gay or straight. Susie and her musicians are all so talented. They are very versatile and their huge song list includes many genres of music. The music reaches all generations from millennials to octogenarians. Music is very important to my wife and me, so when we decided to get married the first thing we did was call Susie. We picked a date for the wedding based on the band’s availability. Susie was so easy to work with and helped us in so many ways. She suggested the venue we used, acted as our MC, and she even learned a special song to which we walked down the aisle, “There’s a Place for Us.” It was a wonderful event thanks to Susie. An older friend said it was the best wedding she’d ever been to, even her own!

Kristina Lee Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Sherman Oaks, CA

Born in the desert (AZ Baby!) and relocated to the sea. I firmly believe that a good day starts with a cup of coffee and ends with glass of red wine. I own more jewelry than I do clothes and in my opinion, too much gold does not exist. My biggest passion will always be photography. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a little girl – I would even set up “stylized shoots” in my family’s living room that consisted of sheets pinned to the wall, my friends and fake flowers (embarrassing, but I’m not kidding!). I strive for those editorial, Vogue-like shots, but I really live for those private, in-between moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner, I get the opportunity to work with many photographers. BY FAR, Kristina Lee Photography is my all-time favorite! Not only does she have an artistic eye for capturing moments, but she also makes the couples feel comfortable and relaxed. Kristina also is a team player with the rest of the vendors. Her turn around time for images is like no other. The generosity of what she pours into her craft and service is admirable! Kristina is both professional and playful which clients love and trust! I have no hesitation in recommending Kristina Lee Photography. As a matter of fact, I highly encourage it! You'll have the best pictures with the most delightful photographer!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were having a difficult time finding our perfect venue, and then along came The Revery. It is a stunning blank canvas with a touch of industrial appeal, something my partner and I were definitely fans of both being from NYC originally. Beautiful bathrooms, a full kitchen for catering, and a lovely little room for the wedding party to hide out in as need be. There are options for basic rentals, but the best part about this place is the flexibility to make it whatever you want it to be! We held our ceremony in one portion of the downstairs veranda, and cocktail hour on the other side. Then everyone went upstairs to the big reveal of the reception. So convenient to have it all in one place. The surrounding area also has some really cool graffiti, as well as some vibrant green space, perfect for taking different arrays of photographs. Monica is the sweetest, and she and her team were very helpful and responsive, and despite how busy they are, would always find time for us. They made everything flow so seamlessly and feel so special on our big day. We seriously couldn't be happier with choosing The Revery for our wedding.

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Cook and Peter were so great to work with. I appreciated their understanding of how difficult the cost of weddings have gone up and how they were willing to cooperate reasonably throughout the whole process. Cook was able to capture all the shots I was hoping to have captured and his talent is truly evident. My husband and I were hoping to get some footage within the whole gallery of the not so “picture-perfect” to keep memories authentic and to see the natural candid side of our special day. Cook delivered that exactly through his videos. I truly recommend working with Cook if you are looking for someone to capture a meaningful event in your life. He is also so versatile in styles that he truly can provide you exactly what you are looking for or thinking through collaboration.

I have been a professional freelance makeup artist for 4 years now. I also worked at Sephora for 2 years as a makeup artist, and earned my Esthetician license before that in 2017. I have always been an artist at heart but did not touch makeup until I was 18 years old! But thankfully my love and talent for art and painting easily transferred over to makeup artistry, and I'm very thankful that I can encourage my creativity while making people feel beautiful on their important days of life.

I connected with Jaycee (Jackie) when working in LA because we both have a very similar style. When moving out of LA I passed her to all of my clients and my top recommended makeup artist and I now travel back for large events that we both work together. Jackie is passionate and skilled in her craft and most importantly she works with quality products and follows strict sanitation protocols. She is my favorite artist to work with and the only one I would personally recommend in my place for any job. All of my past clients that work with her have nothing but excellent things to say!

We hired Nate, Vanessa & Keren to shoot our welcome party and wedding and HOLY COW they blew us away! From our first meetings over Zoom, we knew we'd made the right choice. Aside from their obviously gorgeous work, we chose them because their vibe is so down to earth, comforting, and fun. During the two parties, they were efficient and blended right in with our guests so all of our pictures felt organic, which was important to us. We opted to do half on film, half on digital and were completely speechless at how it all turned out. The cherry on top was how quickly we got our pictures back: we got the email one month after our wedding while we were on our honeymoon! So special to relive that day in that setting, and we were so impressed with that turnaround. We already know we'll be hiring this team down the road once we start a family. Their work is so, so special. We truly can't recommend them strongly enough! We wish we could give 10 stars!!

She highlighted things we hadn't thought of, helped us book additional staffing, and found an affordable service for us to rent party supplies. Dolores and her team took care of everything which truly let us sit back and enjoy our day. She was professional and handled any hiccups throughout the day; we couldn't have done it without her.

It all started for me at a very young age. In the early 90's when it was all about fashion and the super model, I would OBSESS over the style network and watch runway shows for hours. Fast forward to post high school choices I went to school for esthetics and also got a degree in natural health so that I could offer an additional layer to my makeup knowledge and services. Not soon after I graduated from school I freelanced for the best cosmetic company at that time. Five years after being a brand ambassador for M.A.C I branched off on my own to open a freelance hair and makeup artistry which I eventually moved to Caliornia.

LA Hair and Makeup did a PHENOMENAL job with my wedding hair and makeup! Ashanta (the owner) is so kind, professional, brilliant, and talented. She and her team did makeup for myself and 14 members of my wedding party, and did everything on schedule and to a very high standard of artistry. All of my bridesmaids choose pretty different makeup looks and Ashanta’s team did it all perfectly. I wanted my own hair and makeup look to be sort of vintage-inspired and natural, and I truly could not have been happier with how my bridal hair and makeup turned out— Ashanta is a genius!!

My unique style of filming allows me to capture moments that would otherwise go undocumented and lost forever. Growing up on the Central Coast gave me an appreciation for the serene beauty of nature that I strive to capture with all my films.

I am so glad that we booked 1920 video. After speaking with Brandt I knew it was a good fit because he understood my vision for our wedding video. I could tell he had a passion for storytelling and the art of filmmaking. He was able to capture our love story and delivered a beautiful work of art that we can cherish for the years to come.

I am very fulfilled at helping others through the planning process, especially in alleviating the stresses of planning. Even more so, I am driven to ensure the vision they have for one of the most important days of their lives, comes into fruition. It is always an honor, privilege, and joy to be a part of your wedding day!

"It was a pleasure working with Toni! She is such a sweetheart and treated me like a friend. She went above and beyond what I was looking for. Toni was very organized and had a lot of different ideas and suggestions to fill the missing pieces when I felt lost. At the start of my wedding planning process, I was very overwhelmed but Toni’s monthly meetings made things run smoothly. Toni went beyond my expectations of my vision board for my decorations. She took note of all the little details that I wanted. My wedding turned out just as I imagined it and went very smoothly thanks to Toni. Also on top of what Toni did, she did an amazing job while being pregnant. Thank you so much to Toni and her team." -Kathy

I was referred to Mandy by my hairstylist and I am forever grateful. Mandy is a down-to-earth bright spirited professional. Other make up artists tend to push and pull you in a direction. Mandy does the opposite. She knows the questions to ask and creates a comfortable environment where you find yourself talking with a friend. Make up can be vulnerable experience for a bride, and all Mandy wants to do is enhance is your beauty and let your smile come through. She is knowledgeable on techniques, trends, and brands. Working with Mandy was a truly collaborative and fun experience. It was comforting to know that she was always focused on me, ready for a touch up or adjustment. She was a trusted friend throughout the day and I know I’ll look back on those photos years from now with the comfort I looked like myself and felt stunning! You’ll be lucky and feel spoiled to have her on your team!

Sehar and her team were awesome to work with. She really did her best to keep me (the bride) and my family calm during wedding planning. Sehar very delicately managed our vendors especially when they had made mistakes and ensured a smooth event. She managed our timeline well and made sure the things I really wanted to happen got done. A general note on working with a wedding planner- No wedding planner will be perfect. We are all humans after all. The important thing is to fund someone you jive with and keep clear, effective and open communication between you and the person you have chosen. It's a collaborative process and it really should be that way. Thats the main reason why I chose Bliss Wedding over some of their competitors.

Hi there, I'm Kaylyn. After almost 12 years working as a florist, I can honestly say, I'm still not over them. This career has been the happiest accident of my life and I can't imagine a life without flowers. What started out as hobby became my dream career. It has taken me all over the world, introduced me to new people and to new cultures, challenged me, and has given me the opportunity to be a fly on the wall to the most beautiful celebrations of love. It has been a joy.

I can't recommend Kaylyn and True Vine Studio enough! She created my wedding bouquet this past weekend, and it was absolutely perfect. I provided her a general color scheme, and she worked her magic—picking the most beautiful flowers and colors that complemented each other so well. She was so accommodating, even scheduling a convenient drop-off at my house before we headed out of town for the wedding. Kaylyn is the sweetest, professional, and super easy to communicate with. 10/10 recommend True Vine Studio for any floral needs. Thank you thank you again, Kaylyn!

The Inn of the Seventh Ray offers a storybook setting nestled in the canyon, surrounded by grand old sycamores, waterfalls and a flowing creek. Perfect for any celebration, the Inn features rich gardens and a beautifully romantic atmosphere whether you are here to say I do or gather with friends and family to celebrate a joyous occasion. Our menu offers market fresh, California cuisine inspired by the seasons and sourced through local organic and naturally raised ingredients. Considered LA’s most romantic restaurant, we offer a venue unlike any other in the Los Angeles area. The Inn is made up of multiple semi-private outdoor areas and two indoor dining rooms and can be combined to accommodate up to 250 wedding guests.

The Inn of the Seventh Ray was a stunning and gorgeous venue. We were looking for something outdoorsy (without being in the forest), romantic (gorgeous twinkle lights everywhere), and flexible (they accommodated every need from layout to late night snack). Every concern I worried about, turned out to be nothing at all, making it the greatest venue. If you like what you see, it is 10,000% worth it to work with Holly. Holly, the coordinator, knows what she is doing and what works best for guests. She listened to my wild ideas and hopes, and made them work seamlessly. People said, "something will inevitably go wrong on your wedding day." Nothing went wrong, and we credit Holly for that. As the brides, we never felt rushed, or overwhelmed. We were so taken care of. She was so organized and made sure we were having a great time by checking in throughout the night. Concerns I had about the venue: 1) nature (the ground would be uneven for my grandparents). They were fine. 2) Not enough bathrooms (no body cared, we danced in line) 3). It seems small. Yes, it is intimate but honestly, it was the perfect size, no body was wandering or lost, the space felt filled which made it more fun and you didn't miss a detail. 4). No hard alcohol mixed drinks. This worried me because I don't love beer and wine, but it was best because no one got crazy, obnoxious, or over intoxicated. 5) It stayed open to the public so other people would be there. AND IT WAS AWESOME! Everyone complimented us and it made us feel even more special to be recognized. I love that it is a restaurant so we can return on our anniversary for years to follow. It will always get to be a special place in our hearts.

  • Serves Sherman Oaks, CA

I'm admittedly wary when it comes to the Wedding Industry and all of it's bells/whistles/expectations, and at the same time, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of community, love, commitment, and collective joy. I think that weddings-- in all of their forms and reclamations-- ultimately serve a great purpose in reminding us of these gifts. I come from a long line of meticulous documenters and hold a degree in Sociology, all of which informs the way I approach photography. I am curious about people, am in awe of the display of emotion, and am passionate about the ways in which we construct family and community.

My husband and I worked with Kenzie for our engagement session in the summer of 2021 and our wedding in the spring of 2022. As you can tell from the timeline both sessions were at the peak of the Pandemic. This season was filled with excitement but also stress as we balanced our family's health, our deepest desires for the wedding, and the weight of the global pandemic. Kenzie gave us the peace that we so desperately needed. All in all, she was our favorite wedding vendor. After our initial onboarding Zoom call, my husband and I turned to each other and screamed did we just make a new best friend?! She is not only professional but personal. She has a great artistic vision but also respected the direction we gave. Kenzie takes a photojournalistic approach to her work and because of that, we feel like these moments are enshrined in history! My favorite Kenzie touch was the pre-wedding survey she provided us that helped her understand what emotions we had going into "the most important day of our lives". She prompted us with questions about the relationship dynamics between our family and friends, and the quirky details of our love, and our answers allowed her to capture more than just a single snapshot in time. Kenzie's photos capture FEELINGS. Thank you thank you thank you and we cannot wait to work with you for our next life event!!
