We recently had our wedding reception at Terra Laguna, and we couldn't be happier with how things turned out.
Venue Coordinator, Devon:
Very helpful in preparing the event and making sure it ran smoothly. Professional and attentive.
Food:
The food was excellent. Diverse menu and high-quality ingredients. Many guests complimented the meals. We did the plated dinner option and were very pleased with how it turned out both in presentation and taste.
Space Utilization:
We had our ceremony at a different location, so we used the standard ceremony area for a cocktail hour. It was a great use of space and added a unique touch to the event. The main reception area was gorgeous with the bistro lighting and unique architecture of the permanent patio cover. We had about 150 people didn’t feel cramped.
Overall Experience:
The venue was beautiful and well-organized. Many guests told us it was one of the best weddings they've attended.
As we transitioned into nighttime, the venue seemed to grow even more beautiful. If you're looking for a venue that combines great service, good food, and a beautiful setting, Terra Laguna is a solid choice. Truly an experience we will never forget for all the right reasons.
We were in a unique situation with delaying our wedding at Terra due to COVID and then had one of the first weddings post the lockdown, so portions of our production process where a little wonky. However when it came to month of, including the tasting through the wedding day, we were thrilled with our experience. We greatly appreciated the amazing food - we had guests say it was the best wedding food ever - the beautiful atmosphere, and the friendly staff. It is an incredibly unique and beautiful venue right in the heart of Laguna Beach.
Terra Laguna Beach was an absolute DREAM! My parents were married here back in the 80s when it was called Tivoli Terrace, and I was over the moon to be able to have our wedding reception there as well. The venue had recently undergone a major renovation and the finished product is PERFECTION! I can't stress enough how beautiful and amazing this venue is. We didn't have a wedding theme, we just chose things we loved, but I knew I wanted it to be very romantic and whimsical and Terra delivered on that!
Working with the team at Terra was amazing. They have wonderful staff that will help make your wedding vision come to life. They also have some items available for rent which was very helpful to us (we rented chandeliers). The space is large but feels intimate, the scenery is lush and so beautiful, and the twinkle lights made the night so romantic. There are some amazing pathways where we took some pictures and it looks like we're in a fairytail book!
The food was also delicious. We were not able to have a tasting which made me nervous, but we couldn't be happier with the food! We chose the Gallery 4 Plated Meal - Dual Entree and also had two late night snack selections and our guests were raving about the food all night long.
There are some restrictions that I wasn't aware of initially (no sparklers, music needs to conclude by 10PM, no food trucks) but we worked with them to create great alternative options. Terra really made our wedding day so amazing and I can't wait to get our photos back to relive it all!
Any questions?
Getting married at Terra was perfect! We highly recommend!!! My husband and I looked at several venues around Orange County and Terra checked every box for us. Working with Katie & Dulce was a highlight of our wedding experience. As Terra’s wedding planning team, they provided outstanding customer service, we feel we got the experience that every couple and family would hope for when planning a wedding. I feel joyful for anyone that gets the experience of working with them on such a special occasion.
The newly renovated space is stunning. The earthy & modern aesthetic suited the energy we wanted for our wedding day. The location is incredible. Our guests stayed at The Laguna Beach House Hotel and we charted the LB Trolleys to and from the event. They offer ample parking, however being able to use the trolleys was a great add. The food was incredible. And they were able to refer great vendors for our flowers and DJ. Our guests raved about it. Congrats to you if this is your future wedding venue :)
I did not get married here but wanted to leave a 5-star for Jessica. We visited this property when we were looking for venues and really loved the spot. We ended up going with something closer to the beach but had a really hard time with making the decision. Terra was an awesome spot and BRAND NEW! Jessica was also really sweet and was very willing to work with us on our needs and even after we told her we went with another venue - continued to offer her advice on the area and other vendors. Super helpful and bummed we are not able to work with her more!
I can't even BEGIN to say how wonderful of an experience we had with Terra Laguna (formerly known as Tivoli Terrace).
We got lucky enough to be the first wedding they hosted with the new ownership and renovations. This place is just naturally beautiful and I wanted to play off of the lush beauty that it had.
You can't beat the location, the staff is absolutely amazing and accommodating (shout out to Dulce, Katie, Jessica and Mike for everything you did to make our day the most perfect day ever) and HOLY MOLY the food was probably the most complimented part of our wedding. There is absolutely not one thing I would have changed or anything I could have wished for more. If you ask them, they'll do it for you (perks of an all inclusive venue). Thank you again, Terra. You'd be a fool to not get married here.
Tivoli Terrace made my husband and I's dream wedding come true! They are so helpful and are there for you every step of the planning process. I had so many guests compliment the uniqueness and beauty of the venue, as well as the delicious food. Thank you Tivoli!
This was a dream location for us! We planned a wedding in a quick 2 months and Tivoli truly made it all happen. They are so accommodating, have an eye for detail, and the fact that they are all inclusive (if you choose) made the planning process so simple and enjoyable. Troy is fantastic and I never had to worry about anything since they walk you through every step. The live pianist was also such a special touch to our ceremony! The location is beautiful, the food is amazing and the staff is awesome. I highly recommend Tivoli for any wedding with no reservations!
My goodness! I don't even know where to start. There are not enough words to describe our wonderful experience here at Tivoli Terrace! When my Husband and I first walked into the venue, Troy was the first person we spoke with. After two minutes talking with Troy...we knew instantly we wanted to book the place! Not only is the venue gorgeous, but the coordinators are AMAZING! They helped me plan the most amazing wedding I could ever dream of. They made everything so easy for us throughout the entire year. They were always there to answer my questions and always encouraged me to swing by the venue to take any pictures or bring any of my decorations to see what it would look like. The day of the wedding Troy and Dulce were my coordinators. They did such a great job making sure my husband and I were accomplishing as much as we could throughout the night. They knew how to coordinate so that we could get the maximum amount of fun, pictures, and dancing! The venue is perfect. What we loved most about this venue was that the ceremony was in a separate location from the reception. You walk upstairs for the ceremony, and downstairs is the reception. It was perfect, and perfectly set up. Camille was also another coordinator that helped my mom and I out all year while we bombarded her with questions. She was always so professional and re-assured us that no matter what the day will be so much fun! My Husband and I are so happy we picked Tivoli Terrace as our venue. It was close to the beach for our guests and in the best location in Laguna Beach. All of the coordinators were so professional and wonderful to work with. It has been two weeks since our wedding and we are still receiving such great compliments on the venue. It was truly the most magical place!
My husband and I got married in early February 2017 at Tivoli Too in Laguna Beach and it was more fun than we could have ever imagined. It is such a beautiful and romantic location, sort of like an Italian courtyard. I loved the tent with the white fairy light strung across the ceiling and all the beautiful plants and flowers throughout. The staff (Katie, Dulce, Troy, and Marcella) are incredibly helpful and friendly! Any question asked was answered quickly and thoroughly. They took the stress off of planning a wedding by making everything so organized and easy. Thanks to Dulce and Troy who were our day of Wedding coordinators everything ran so smoothly that I never had to think about anything other than getting married and having fun. And a special thanks to Dulce who helped me with my veil when it fell out right before I was to walk down the aisle. Our guests all commented on how lovely the venue was! One thing I didn't like is the fact that we didn't get to try our food ahead of time. We selected the salmon and Beef wellington, both with garlic mashed potatoes. The day of the wedding the salmon and beef were cooked perfectly and very tasty. Everyone I spoke to said the food was delicious. The carrot cake is amazing! Also be aware that if you want to keep any of the decorations that you brought to the venue you will need to take them with you at the end of your wedding. My husband and I just can't stop talking about how happy we were with Tivoli Too.
Great coordinators, great food, beautiful venue, low stress, and competitive price. I was able to meet my budget because of the price of the venue. The staff were very easy to work with. I can't say anything bad about this place. Includes food, beer, wine, champagne, all the silverware, centerpieces, and much more. I was able to get a lower price by having my wedding in the winter. It rained right before my wedding but everything was perfect. There are options and accommodations if there is rain during your wedding. The guests were not cold in the areas that were outside. Plenty of heaters, drinks and food to keep everyone warm. They don't offer a food tasting for all of the dishes that have for weddings but you will not be disappointed. Flan is delicious, I recommend getting that for dessert.
Thank you to the entire Tivoli Too! team!! I had a beautiful rustic winter-themed wedding that beautifully matched the venue's winter decorations. I had both my ceremony and reception at the venue. In the winter months, the reception takes place in an elegant, heated tent with glamorous chandeliers and lots of romance. The transition from the ceremony to the reception was seamless. The staff are so supportive during the planning stages and leave you stress and care-free on the day of. The venue provides staff, catering, bartending, cake, decorations, centerpieces, etc., so all you really need to take care of are any extra decorations that you choose, as well as ceremony/reception extras. They even have recommended vendors (DJ, photographer, florist, photobooth, etc. etc.) that know the ins and outs of the venue and flow of events that help provide a seamless experience! I could not have asked for better service!!
My daughter decided on having her wedding and reception here, and it was the best decision ever! On her big night our coordinator was Katie Brown, and she was amazing! At the rehearsal she was a little strict in regards to what she wanted out of the wedding party, but that ended up working out very well for everyone involved because we all knew what to do, how to do it and when to do it. The night of the wedding went PERFECT! everything was amazing. The salmon was delicious, the beef dish was cooked medium rare, and the pasta dish was excellent! There were these wedding cookies sitting innocently by the coffee, some guests didn't pay much attn to them, but the guests who did were treated to an amazing little delight!
During cocktail hour the drinks were flowing and the line moved quickly I was told by several guests that there was not enough appetizers passed around. But the appetizers they did try were amazing.
Towards the end of the night a guest spilled red wine on the bride, and I was told Katie was gone, but I found her exiting the venue and told her what happened, she put down her stuff and came and helped us! I was beyond impressed with her! Can't explain in words how amazing she was all night! And she was very nice, that went well with her "strict" first impressions! Tivoli Too! handled everything we needed that night. We had brought in decorations and they set it up beautifully! I was thrilled that they took my daughters visions and made them a reality. It's been almost 3 months since the wedding and I go through my memories of that evening and the only not positive thing I can remember was that the beef dish had bell peppers in it(lol). But after spending all that money, if that's the only thing I can think of, I'm ok with that! Definitely worth the money!
Beautiful venue! The staff was amazing in helping my husband & I achieve the vision of our special day. The days leading up to our wedding they were prompt in answering our questions & making last minute changes. Having the day of coordinators made our day so smooth & allowed us to genuinely enjoy our day! Lastly, our guests are still talking about how good the food & cake was!
This venue was more than we could have ever asked for! From the incredible staff, to the whimsical setting and the prime location, it was an absolutely perfect fit for our big day! It represented us both so well, and Ashley and the entire staff were amazing to work with! It was the first venue we looked at, and after 14 venue tours later we came back full circle. As time passed during our engagement period, we only became more and more confident in our decision to marry at this venue. It is so magical at night with all the lights and the waterfall, and was more beautiful than we even anticipated. After 163 days of no rain in California, it not only poured down rain, but thunder stormed on our wedding night. The staff was so flexible, calm and understanding, and despite the fact that it was still raining, lightning and thundering at the time of this decision, they respected our choice to still hold our ceremony under the waterfall. They quickly and efficiently flipped our ceremony from inside the tent to outside (IN THE RAIN) without any questions asked. We were so blessed to have it magically stop raining from beginning to end of our ceremony. All throughout the ceremony and reception the staff was so on point, organized and kept us to our timeline, and it made for the best wedding we could have ever hoped for! We got so many compliments on how beautiful our venue was, and we can't imagine getting married anywhere else besides Tivoli Too!
They are incredibly helpful and friendly! Any question asked was answered quickly and thoroughly.
Boy of boy, where to begin?! Tivoli Too was simply the perfect wedding venue. From the very start of the planning process, Tivoli Too made things so easy. They had so many choices for how to decorate the venue, and their coordinators were full of ideas on how to make our themed wedding come to life. We immediately knew we were in good hands.
Leading up to the wedding, Ashley and Katie answered every question we had thoroughly and thoughtfully. They always had a plan for everything (from rain to last minute invites!). On the wedding day, we could not have felt more prepared. Everything went so smoothly and all our bridal party and guests knew where to go and what was happening at all times.
Our venue was decorated exactly as we had envisioned without us even lifting a finger! The coordinators Ashley, Katie, and Dulce only needed a list of our items and knew exactly where to place everything to make it look fabulous! The reception looked like everything we had ever dreamed of. Our guests could not stop gushing over the delicious food, beautiful gardens, and whimsical nature of Tivoi Too.
Tivoli Too was everything we hoped it to be and more, both for us and our guests. Thank you to all the hardworking staff and coordinators who make dreams come to life at Tovoli Too!
Tivoli Too knows their stuff. They do weddings every week and it is there passion to make wedding visions become reality. The wedding coordinators made my day flawless and had everything taken care of, so I could just enjoy the day. They are amazing and everyone kept saying how beautiful the venue is and how amazing the food tasted. Thank you Tivoli Too!
We had our wedding at Tivoli and loved everything!!! I love the beautiful garden area and beautiful tent with lights and chandelier. They have a great package deal making it easier on you and affordable! All of the wedding coordinators are very helpful and they definitely know how to throw a wedding! (Yes wedding coordinators are included in price). I couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else. I have got so many compliments of how beautiful our wedding was and how did I find this place. I would highly recommend for anyone looking in the Orange County area!!!
I really could not have been in better hands with the team of coordinators at Tivoli Too! They are exceptionally professional and talented. Planning was a breeze and they were so helpful and accomodating throughout the entire process. They made my wedding look so beautiful. I had purchased a ton of decorations from Etsy with no clear idea of how I wanted things to look. They made everything look so beautiful - everything was arranged perfectly. When I walked into the venue, I literally jumped up and down because I was just so happy with how things looked. My wedding day was entirely stress free because they took such good care of everything.
I highly recommend the venue and the team! They're just amazing! Thank you!
This venue was just beautiful! Located inside The Festival of The Arts grounds. The staff and wedding coordinators were so nice and helpful. They took the stress off of planning a wedding by making everything so organized and easy.
Taryn, Virgilio, Diana, and Marcie were wonderful and so attentive!
Our guests all commented on how lovely the venue was and the food was excellent!
Tivoli Terrace made my 3 1/2 month engagement so much easier! Their all inclusive package takes most of the work out of your hands and the wedding was absolutely gorgeous! The coordinators and DJ made the night go so smoothly. I'm very happy with my decision to get married here. It was perfect.
So beautiful and very organized, best value for something in laguna for sure!! Everything included, no hidden fees! Food was great!!!
The staff of Tivoli Terrace was so helpful and kind. They are experts at seeing a brides vision and pulling it off perfectly. My guests were so impressed by the food and atmosphere of this venue. We had our wedding in September and it was perfect in my opinion.
We recently got married at Tivoli Too, and it was a fantastic experience. This place is a wedding machine, in mostly a good way. They make everything so easy, and have a great team of coordinators that answer emails (and I sure sent a bunch) usually same day with a clear answer to any question I had.
It's crazy how much is included in their package... ceremony, pianist, coordinators, linens, cake, beer/wine/champagne all night. Even centerpieces. Some of these things can be personalized, others cannot - thus the 4 stars for flexibility. But if you are fine with not controlling every single aspect, this place is a god send. We did bring in our own centerpieces, and they will cheerfully work with you where they can. Only thing I didn't like is the fact that we didn't get to try our food ahead of time. We selected the salmon with roasted red pepper sauce and chicken wellington, both with garlic mashed potatoes. I thought the salmon was well cooked but just a hair bland, and the chicken was delicious. Potatoes very garlicky and great.
Overall, the venue is BEAUTIFUL, even when it is smaller in June for Art-a-Fair. You can get a GREAT deal on summer weddings (June/July/August) here as long as you are a bit flexible and have a smaller wedding. The location is much bigger the rest of the year.
I wish I could stand on the rooftops and shout that everyone should get married at Tivoli Terrace! Our wedding was more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed. Everything went so smoothly and perfectly! The food was absolutely amazing! The venue was beautiful and the staff will go above and beyond for you, I feel so lucky I found them!! Everyone working was super sweet and helpful. You can tell they really love what they do! I wish I could live that day over and over! It was amazing!!
I couldn't have dreamed of my wedding to be more remarkable or magical than it was thanks to Tivoli Too. The venue grounds are magical and gave us the gardenesque setting we wanted. The heated winter tent was roomy for our 140 guests and the decor throughout complemented our look and feel perfectly.
As a type A bride, I had endless rounds of questions - some so minor I feared I would be that obnoxious, annoying bride who tried to micromanage everything, but each conversation was welcomed and promptly answered. The entire staff is so well informed, organized and happy to help. The specifics I had requested, such as placing favor cards on plates or setting up the tables to my liking were carried out to a T.
The week of our wedding, weather reports of 50% rain caused me to stress out and overthink back up plans, yet Riley doubled as a therapist and comforted me to know, it wouldn't rain and in the off chance it did, Tivoli had a rain plan of attack ready to roll out. Of course, as he assured me, the weather was fabulous.
Another small gesture that meant the world to me - I have food allergies and Tivoli went the extra mile to substitute items with my allergy in mind. We still had the cake cutting in front of our guests, with a hidden slice of gluten free cake behind the big cake so we could feed one another a bite; my bridesmaids and I entered the bridal party room pre-ceremony and toasted to apple cider, in place of champagne,so I could partake; Our dinners were delivered to my groom and me at the sweetheart table with a reassurance that mine was prepared gluten free. All things that were such a delight to not have to worry about.
Above the service and the beauty of the venue, the price was phenomenal. I can't thank Tivoli enough for making our big day such a smooth and memorable experience. We can't wait to find an excuse to visit Tivoli again in the future.
Get married in September when they don't have the tent up. The property is gorgeous! My wedding turned out better than I could have imagined.
I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day...
But it all started 7 months before when we went to look at this gorgeous property and talked to the wedding coordinators. Riley was amazing explaining the details (even what the foliage would look like in July!)plus everything that was included in this all inclusive package without being pushy.
On the day of, Kate and Nancy made sure everything was in place and kept everything moving in time without us even realizing they were really there.
Our bartender was happy, fun and pleasant...
I was most impressed when one of my guest told the staff of her food allergies (which are a lot of them!) the kitchen whipped her up a meal on the spot and even made sure she got a fresh bowl of fruit when everyone else was served cake!
I would without a doubt do it all over again at Tivoli Too! I keep trying to push it on all my friends and clients that are getting engaged!!
They deserve more than 5 stars!!
Tivoli Too is amazing! Such a beautiful and romantic location. The staff are the best! Always helpful from day one. Any questions I had the were quick to answer. On our wedding night we were treated like queens.
Everything from the food to the staff to the beautiful details was perfect! I want to get married here all over again! I may be biased (since it was my wedding) but it was the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen! I would recommend anyone get married here. The staff always are prompt to respond and are very professional and a pleasure to work with. I have known several brides who spent almost double what Tivoli Too costs and were not half as nice. This is a great venue!
I could not have asked for a better reception. The staff is courteous, efficient, and flexible. The wedding coordinators kept everything running smoothly. I didn't have to worry about anything. The venue is also really pretty, especially at night. I got some great pictures. I would highly recommend to anyone. If I could give it more than a five star rating, I would.
Tivoli Too is a beautiful Italian courtyard filled with flowers, a waterfall and gazebo. They provided everything! The only things I had to book on my own were the DJ, Officiant, Photographer and Videographer. That staff is professional and they executed my wedding flawlessly. Since this venue already comes with a large amount of decor, there is very little you need to do. The food is exceptional. Highly recommended.
I can only add to the countless amazing reviews for this venue! To be fair, I'll point out the only things I wish I could tweak a bit. Firstly is the time. I feel like there just wasn't enough time to really hang out and dance after all of the traditional stuff (first dance, toasts, meal, garter/bouquet toss etc.) so don't even hesitate to purchase the extra time. IT'S WORTH IT! The other thing I wish was that they had more cake flavors. I really wanted a chocolate wedding cake HOWEVER, the carrot cake really was to die for and the presentation (both whole and then served) was beautifully done. I would also recommend going to see the venue in person. They really have outdated and poor pictures on their website and we had no idea how HUGE the venue and space was or how breath taking all the plants and statues were until we went (note:Art-a-fair is a different experience all together). The staff is amazing. Truly. 100% at their best to make sure everyone was happy and taken care of. I was married on September 15th, the hottest day in 30 years and had a noon wedding. After the ceremony every single glass was filled with ice water and they kept bringing out more and more umbrellas to shade my guests. This is truly an outstanding venue. They know what they're doing, and they do it well. Well done Tivoli Too! Oh and EVERY single person I've talked with since our honeymoon has told us either it was the best wedding they've ever been too, the best wedding food & cake they've ever had or both!
gorgeous venue, everything was organized and done for us, lots of things included like cake, food, linens, alcohol, ceremony music etc. awesome!
Our wedding was absolutely magical! Kate and Vanessa were calm and professional and paced and handled the night perfectly- my husband and I never had to think once! The place was PERFECT and everyone who lookes at our wedding pics comments about how romantic and charming the venue was! My only suggestions: Tivoli provides some items that you definitely want to upgrade! We did our own table linens (believe it or not, that made a HUGE difference), flowers (we did simple white tuplips in glass bowls that were classic elegance; they were providing a red rose in a vase which just didn't do the place justice), and we got rid of their pianist who was to play during the processional (she played for me on the phone and it was not the vibe we were going for; we hired a guitarist off of Gigmaster (he played before the ceremony, during the ceremony, and during the cocktail hour after- I walked down the a gorgeous, live rendition of "Marry Me" by
Train!). BUT...those were our only changes. My husband and I just can't stop talking about how happy we were with Tivoli Too. I wish I could post a pic in this review to show just how beautiful the place was...
After seeing this venue, we had no further need to look...instantly we knew this was the place for us. The staff made arranging my wedding here a breeze, so much of the details were taken care of in a package deal...what a load off my shoulders! And SUCH a beautiful place. My only sadness is that I wish it was a place my husband and I could return to year after year to celebrate anniversaries and remember that special day!
This venue is all inclusive. You get so much! We were absolutely blown away with the venue, the service, the price wasn't too bad either, the cake, the food, the decorations, everything. Just wonderful! I would do it there all over again!
"Gorgeous", "Unique", "Fairy Tale", "Best food ever eated at a wedding"! These are just a few words and phrases that I have heard regarding my wedding at Tivoli Too! My husband and I had our Ceremony and Reception at Tivoli Too! on Friday, May 18, 2012 but our wedding adventure started about a year and a half before that. The Manager/Coordinator, Kate, was fantastic! She answered all of our questions and was always there throughout the entire planning process. Our Day of Coordinators, Ashley and Vanessa, were amazing and kept us on schedule the entire time. We had a very large set up and 175 guests and everything was set perfectly and everyone had an amazing time!
I can't say enough nice things about this venue. A few years ago when I was a teacher, I came here randomly for lunch and the second I walked in I was taken away. This place is everything I dreamed for a wedding venue- Spanish/garden/vintage/lighting/character/good food/wonderful employees- it is truly romantic and enchanting. I asked if they ever held wedding here and the response was an energetic "yes!" When my longtime boyfriend proposed a few years later, it was the first venue we visited with our parents. On the day we met with them there was a horrible storm and it down poured rain. The venue was still dry and covered (even being half outdoors) and just as beautiful as ever. Knowing that's as bad as it would get on our wedding day, we were sold. Our parents love the place as well and liked that so much was included for the price.Thank you guys for all your help in making everything run smoothly! Being a craft nut-I'm so thankful you guys took care of many bulk wedding details (food, cake/alcohol/tables/music/decor/coordinator/etc., so that I could focus and spend time obsessing on all the details that really mattered to me and uniquely represented us as a couple. Everything was set up beautifully, your coordinators are FANTASTIC, and the night was just a blast! So many guests commented on how beautiful the venue was, how delicious the food was, and how much they loved our DJ (DJ LUX). Jason kept telling me it was the best night of his life. I can't say Thank you enough!
I live out of state but family is all in California. This location helped with my planning, as it included food, drinks (beer & wine too),flowers, table settings/linens, ceremony music, and cake. They have coordinators to help the day of the wedding to help everything go smoothly and they worked well with the DJ to accomplish this. They even wrapped my toasting glasses back up and boxed them. I got many complements on the beauty of the place and also on the food that everyone loved, one said it was the best food they have had at the wedding (the most complements came from the taco bar carnitas (shredded pork). I had 150 people attend so the seating was the only problem because although more can fit, they were set up in an area where it was difficult to see the bride and groom table, however, if you guarantee that many people they will reserve the whole place for you rather than splitting up the venue into 2.
Kate was our wedding coordinator at Tivoli Too, and we were blessed to have found her. She was easy to work with and made this bridal very happy. Kate kept the wedding party on schedule and all of our wedding dreams become a reality. The food, table settings, lighting, cake and party favors were placed as we wanted them. This venue is worth every penny and Tivoli will make it stunning when it’s your special day. Thank you Tivoli and Thank you Kate.
Beautiful location, and the staff was so helpful and accommodating!
I was searching for a place to have my wedding and my cousin actually told me about this place. I visited it once and immediately knew this was it. The staff there are so helpful. The venue does everything for you. The ceremony, food, centerpieces, linens, pianist, and beer and wine for all are all included in the package. I had 87 people attend and it was wonderful. Perfect! I tell everyone about this place it's amazing!
This was a wonderful place to get married. Everything was so beautiful and Tivoli Too staff was amazing!
The staff at Tivoli Too is amazing! They were very responsive to all the questions I had and very helpful. Everything is very upfront and nothing is left to be guessed about. The initial total we were given was just about what we paid in the end. We were pleasantly surprised that we actually got money back for deposits we had forgotten about. The venue itself is beautiful at night. There are some weird murals on the walls outside of the ceremony area, but you dont see them at all (atleast at night). The lighting and the garden atmosphere are all very beautiful. The inside of the reception area is equally gorgous and lit up with lots of twinkle lights and a beautiful chandelier. My complaints: as the bride and groom we were charged for a special meal (we felt it should have been complimentary) and the lighting in the reception area was a little too bright during the dancing section of the reception making it feel a little akward. All in all we had a very beautiful wedding and a great time and were able to save a decent amount of money.
"The best wedding I have ever been to!" This is the comments of my family and friends. The wedding planners are so helpful and they really do everything that they possibly can to make sure that one of the most important days of your life goes off without a hitch. I was concerned about the short time-frames that are given to get into the venue but there was no problem at all and it all worked together like clockwork! The food was amazing and the staff was so courteous. The best part of all, when I walked in right before the wedding, I was brought to tears at how beautiful they made the venue look. It was a magical wonderland that I will always remember!
From the beginning to the end, my whole wedding planning and wedding experience was fantastic and a dream come true! From the moment my Mom & I walked into the place we knew this was it! The ambiance is so romantic. We got married in the courtyard and also had our reception there. All of our guests commented on how wonderful the place was how romantic the setting was and the food was amazing too! Would def. recommend this venue at least check it out before you choose!
Our coordinator the day of and during the rehearsal dinner was fantastic! She was not bossy but informative. She was helpful by asking us what we'd like to drink, made sure we sat and ate food for the plates she prepared and she told us what was happenign next and where to be at what time.
Our guests gave us rave reviews on the Italian buffet (which was provided by the Hacienda), the beautiful venue and carrot cake.
After looking all over Southern California, my husband and I went right back to the first place we ever looked, Tivoli Too! The grounds are beautiful, the coordinators are amazing and organized, and the food is delicious. The space was perfect for our small reception of 55 and holds very comfortably 80. I was told they'd had 110 in the smaller space but imagine that would take some creativity. In non-summer months the tent they have would definitely hold a lot more.
This venue includes centerpieces, linens, tables and chairs, cake, dinner and natural decor as a part of a very reasonably priced package. We did, however, have our reception in the summer months when things are a bit more affordable and the space is a bit less private. That being said, I can't say I noticed any lack of privacy as the art fair part of the venue was winding down as our party was winding up!
Kate promised us from the first meeting that once I step through the doors on the night of the wedding I should be able to not worry about anything. She and the rest of the staff kept that promise and Tivoli Too! was everything I expected and more.
My husband and I live on the East Coast and planned our wedding for Laguna Beach, CA (where he grew up). We chose Tivoli Too as our wedding ceremony and reception location after researching places online. It was the best decision we could've made. The coordinators there, especially Kate and Jesse, were unbelievably professional, knowledgeable, and always responsive to any questions we had. They made us feel completely at ease and took care of everything. Because of their incredible organization, our wedding and reception was flawless.
The pictures on their website don't do justice to it's beauty. All of my guests remarked that it was one of the most beautiful wedding venues they had ever been to.
The food was delicious and plentiful. We selected a sit down dinner with choices of salmon, chicken florentine and ratatouille (for vegetarians). All of the dishes were attractively presented and tasted delicious.
If you are having a wedding for under 90 guests, you must consider this place. They are AWESOME!
This venue blew me away from the moment I saw to when I taste tested their food. The venue is spanish like with lots of greenery so you really do not have to do much with the venue itself. The staff are amazing and the coordinators make sure that the bride and groom are taken care of throughout the whole planning process and the day of the wedding. For the money we spent it was well worth it and we got so much more than any other venue that we checked out. I would absolutely suggest this venue to everyone and anyone!
I could not have been happier with this venue. They include almost everything in their package, (cake, centerpieces, food, beverages, table linens, chairs etc) i loved it because I was really not into planning for the wedding, i wanted something that had everything all in one, and this was it. BEAUTIFUL surroundings, excellent staff, my wedding went perfectly from start to finish. they even give you awesome wedding coordinators that help you every step of the way. great price too!
I loved Tivoli Too! They made life so much easier for us. The only thing that I would suggest is that you have all of the details really organized for the day of the wedding because I was so stressed out the day before at the rehearsal that I didn't give our planner everything and they forgot to put out a few items that we gave them. Other than that, it was beautiful and they had amazing service!
They were wonderful. The coordinators were very helpful during the planning process, and having almost everything done through them made planning so effortless. Our wedding was exactly what we wanted it to be.
We got married on the 29th of January, 2011 (73 guests) and our experience with everyone at Tivoli Terrace was PERFECT.
Leading up to the wedding, the staff was ALWAYS available to answer my every question & concern (and believe me, I had seemingly hundreds of questions!). The rehearsal went without a hitch, everything was super well-organized. The day of the wedding, the staff was so fluid in their motions and doing exactly what needed to be done before one could even think of it. They were extremely helpful in directing the entire event as it unfolded before our eyes, and there was no need for us to think or fret at all at any time - all we had to do was look to one of the staff and they led us to our next step, as they had everything figured out for us.
With the experience they have with weddings, and the frequency at which they have them, they have got it down to a science, which really pays off when you're stressed & new to the whole wedding thing. We did not hire a wedding coordinator as Tivoli's help was more than enough for our needs.
The food was wonderful, and while we only had the premises for 4 contracted hours, it was a perfect amount of time, as we left during the peak of enjoyment, leaving everyone on a high that ensured us happy memories for a lifetime.
The French garden atmosphere against the canyon was the perfect setting for me, personally, as it had so much personal history and meaning. We were blessed with beautiful weather, the grounds were simply gorgeous.
The wedding cake was beautifully decorated, though we got the white cake and it wasn't the best white cake I've ever tasted. We chose not to freeze any for a later date. The flowers they used to decorate were beautiful. The champagne was very tasty (I did not taste the wines or beer) and all of the guests enjoyed the food. The food was presented well, (we had a sit-down dinner) and was tasty. I enjoyed eating the dinner with my hubby at our head table, and made a point of doing so, as I did not want to get jipped of a menu that I had heard so much about in the months up to the big day!
During the candle ceremony, all of the candles had blown out before my hubby and I could light our unity candle. No problem, Diane was there to relight them for us. The pianist that they worked with was wonderful, always available to talk to on the phone (she even played the piano over the phone in length so we could get an idea of what we could have played, and learned a song especially for us). Kudos for all of that hard work!
All-in-all, I could not think of a better place for us to get married, and sincerely wish the success we had for everyone else who chooses to go with Tivoli! Cheers!
My husband and I had our evening wedding reception here during Thanksgiving week 2010 and all I could say is I wish we could relive that night again. The event could not have gone any better because the venue was stunningly gorgeous and everything ran very smoothly. From the details in decor to the appetizers and music, Tivoli Too is an excellent option for brides and grooms looking for a venue that offers everything all in one sitting.
Our package included open bar for beer, wine, and champagne, appetizers and a 3 course sit down meal, their delicious wedding carrot cake, linens, centerpieces, etc... In addition, our vendors (DJ and chocolate fountain) were outstanding and were from their referral list.
The staff at Tivoli Too is extremely easy to talk to and very professional. Patrick and Jessi were such a pleasure to work with and took care of EVERYTHING that evening while Kate was great to work with leading up to the months prior to the wedding.
Guests were raving, and still continue to talk about what a beautiful and memorable wedding night that was. My husband and I are so glad we had our reception there and hope to one day attend someone else's wedding at Tivoli Too so we could experience another beautiful evening in Laguna Beach.
They do everything for you and include everything not to mention they are so reasonably priced. The venue is georgous and the staff is amazing
The venue is beautiful though it is smaller than I imagined. The pricing is decent, reason why we didn't go with it was because we would have gone over our budget and it just wasn't worth it also they do 2 weddings a day if they can and we felt like we would be rushed to get everything done quickly and I was told it would be best if I just came to the venue with my hair and makeup done and just get dressed there. To some it won't matter but I want to get ready at the venue I choose to eliminate more stress. Overall the people there were nice and it is worth checking out.
We are still getting complements about how beautiful this location was, with it's courtyards and covered patio that felt like being outside while still covered. The food was delicious, and the cake was like real cake, not some dry wedding cake. The best part was how little I had to do, because hte food, cake, and even the decor was all part of the package. I didn't have to buy any flowers for centerpieces or the altar because all of it is provided!
great ambiance. get alot for the price;very short time scedule (only 4 hours, including ceremony!), restrooms and parking both distanct, non-existant bridal quarters
Response from the Vendor on 03/02/2011
thank you for the kind words. All of our properties do have bridal dressing rooms.
If you?re a bride that wants to make a dramatic entrance this is the place. To enter the ceremony site chapel/garden you walk up a dozen stairs under a large mature blooming bougainvillea tree to antique French wooden double doors. Dramatically the doors open and you begin your walk down the aisle with your dad‡ The ambiance of the venue was majestic, romantic, and intimate. The French garden was filled with gorgeous flowers, lit with beautiful hanging lanterns, tiny gold twinkling lights, and gorgeous candelabras. The wedding cake is displayed in a Victorian gazebo decorated with flowers, the trees and gazebo are illuminated with hundreds of twinkling lights. Hanging candles are lit and the area is a scene of enchantment and romance. The food, service and attention to detail was perfection. The whole wedding flowed effortlessly and mistake free. No a single face of boredom. Have you ever heard of a wedding when people wanted to stay longer, they did at ours!
The ambience was PERFECT for anyone who wants a cute, quaint, gardenesque atmosphere that almost has a treehouse feel to it.;Time limits. We reserved it for a 3 hour time frame (including ceremony & reception) and we wished we had it for a couple more hours.
The food was unbelievably good. They included a lot with the location, like the cake and the bar and the decorations, so I didn't have to worry as much. The lights were really beautiful at night. It was very dreamy.;We lost a half hour because our guest count went under 75 people. It would have been $500 for us to get back that half hour, and the invitations had already gone out. At the end of the reception they threw away all of the bouquets and favors before my family had a chance to get them. My bridesmaids were very upset, and a lot a people were sad that they didn't get to keep their favor. The noise issue was a little bit of a problem, because of where the venue was located. We had to pay a deposit for excess noise that was never refunded. No explanation was given as to why we were'nt refunded. The time constraints made the whole thing feel very rushed, and my husband and I really wished that we had had more time to enjoy it.
