Griffith Observatory | Hollywood Wedding

The Griffith Park Observatory is a Hollywood wedding venue that provides one of Los Angeles’ best views. Sitting along the face of Mount Hollywood in Griffith Park to the north of Downtown Hollywood, Los Angeles, and Beverly Hills, the observatory’s sweeping views of the LA Basin extend from Santa Monica south to Long Beach, Huntington Beach, and beyond.

Step away from the observatory and you’ll find numerous trails winding between the rugged chaparral landscape. The towering trees and hill shrubs take you miles away from the city into scenes reminiscent of much larger Angeles National Forest, making it hard to believe that you’re still in the center of California’s largest metropolis.

Can You Get Married at Disneyland? A Million Dreams are Made at the Magic Kingdom.

Can you get married at Disneyland? Yes! Many people don’t realize that they can get married at Disneyland until their wedding day has passed, but you can get married almost anywhere. Disneyland is one of the most popular Los Angeles and Orange County wedding venues for good reasons. The fun doesn’t stop once the ceremony is over; you can spend all day exploring the sprawling amusement park.

Disneyland has been a popular amusement park and wedding venue since it opened in 1955. Since then, it has grown from a moderately sized park to a sprawling complex with six sister locations worldwide. The Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, however, will always be the original.

Hollywood Walk of Fame – Hollywood Wedding Minister

From the famous to the infamous, you can find almost anyone’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. A Hollywood wedding minister like myself can marry you anywhere along the stretch of stars. The Walk of Fame stretches over a dozen blocks along Hollywood Boulevard with numerous attractions (The Egyptian Theatre and Madame Tussauds, just to name a few) and restaurants surrounding it. It is a unique but exciting Hollywood wedding location centered in the city hub.

In the fifteen blocks making up the Walk of Fame, over 2,600 stars can be found. Strolling along the boulevard, buskers and street performers abound. Some of the best and luckiest may see their own star of the Walk of Fame some day.

Rancho Los Alamitos – Long Beach Wedding Minister

As a Long Beach wedding minister, I have gotten to know the city well. One of my favorite Long Beach wedding venues is the calm and secluded Rancho Los Alamitos The Rancho was built in the early 19th century during the late Spanish rule of the area. At one time, the Rancho was given authority over nearly all of Long Beach, Los Alamitos, Seal Beach, Garden Grove, and Stanton. Today, the Rancho is confined to a humble hill in the center of a quiet Long Beach neighborhood, reminding visitors of simpler times. The original ranch house still stands today, enveloped by tree-lined courtyards and lush gardens.

Getty Center – LA Wedding Officiant

As an LA wedding officiant, I have been a part of civil ceremonies at every venue imaginable – large ballrooms, small restaurants, very public amusement parks, and intimate backyard hot tubs. But the Getty Center, with its sleek but stunning architecture and its massive collection of artwork, is one of the best and will surely enchant every wedding guest, not to mention the lucky couple.

Sustained by the J. Paul Getty Trust, the Getty Center opened in 1997. The complex’s unique white facade is uniquely modern while still calling back to previous eras of human history. The Getty Center finds itself straddling two ridges on the outskirts of the city bordering the prosperous Bel Air neighborhood. Its prime location offers some of the best views in Los Angeles. In the foreground sit beautiful mansions, and in the distance high-rise buildings mixed among the unique neighborhoods that provide Los Angeles with its charm.

Getty Villa – Pacific Palisades Wedding Venue

Located above the sunny Pacific Coast, the Getty Villa is a spectacular Pacific Palisades wedding venue for any and every couple. Although thousands of miles away from Europe, the Getty Villa is reminiscent of an aristocratic European estate. Constructed in the 1950s by oil tycoon J. Paul Getty, the Getty Villa’s facade was modeled after the Greco-Roman architecture of the ancient world. On the inside is a museum dedicated to the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome, featuring priceless artifacts and sculptures. Along with its sister museum (the Getty Center, located approximately five miles away), the Getty Villa holds innumerable cultural relics and works of art.
