About this vendor
The eight historic structures located at the museum, constructed during the Victorian Era, were saved from demolition and serve as a perfect background to educate the public about the everyday lives of Southern Californians from the close of the 19th Century into the early decades of the 20th Century. From the simplicity of the Longfellow-Hastings Octagon House to the opulence of the William Perry Mansion, the Museum provides a unique look at the lifestyles of the people who contributed so much to the development of modern Los Angeles. From intimate weddings inside the Perry Mansion to large weddings staged outside amidst our historic homes, Heritage Square is a remarkable location that you and your guests will remember!

This was our wedding ceremony venue and we couldn't be happier with our choice! The administrators communicated with us throughout the process and were a pleasure to work with -- n...
ot to mention very flexible with last minute small changes. The museum itself is also very cool and informative. We did the tour and had a great time learning the history of the houses and architecture of the place we would be marrying at. The venue absolutely provides amazing photos if you are thinking of having your wedding here and they are far more affordable than most LA venues! Absolutely recommend Heritage Square for weddings!
I absolutely LOVED that we got married at the Heritage Square Museum (it was breathtakingly beautiful, even on our hot summer day!). However, here are a few things to consider if y...
ou're think about getting married here - from one bride to another:
1) The staff are friendly, but since it is a living history museum, they are pretty strict on their rules (if anything, try and work with Kim! She is hilarious and makes the whole process so much easier.)
2) Super big pro: a Saturday wedding is no more expensive than a Sunday or Tuesday wedding here. So rare in LA! (And the wedding venue world, for that matter).
2) This venue provides the outdoor space, and that's it. (Unless you have 35 people attending your wedding, and then you can get married inside one of the houses.) You get a gorgeous and unique wedding backdrop, and that is it. My husband & I really wanted to do a food truck, so we were specifically looking for a venue who didn't require us to use their caterer. Pro: We could bring in whatever caterer we wanted to this space! Con: You get to bring in *everything else* too.
For me, as a naive & excited bride, I said, okay cool! We pick our own vendors & get to choose for ourselves! And while that is totally awesome, I didn't realize that it meant we needed to find (and pay extra) for everything from tables/chairs/tablecloths, to a dance floor, any and ALL lighting, and even bathrooms.
I was very excited about the comparatively less-expensive price (it was $4500 vs $7000+), but I didn't factor in that all those other "extra necessities" made it the same price (and perhaps more expensive) than other venues in the LA area (that had some, or all, of those things included in the cost of the venue).
That being said, our wedding day was so wonderful, and I was surprised how much our guests completely loved the venue! It is a beautiful, rare gem here in LA, perfect if you want your wedding to have a fun, vintage-y, whimsical feel.
