UCLA Faculty Center

UCLA FACULTY CLUB is a venue hosting weddings in Los Angeles, CA’s foremost public university. Couples are welcomed to one of the country’s most distinguished centers of learning for a celebration of their love on its tree-lined grounds. Its multiple spaces and friendly staff make it an excellent choice for couples seeking a full-service venue that offers something different yet traditional. Founded in the 1950s, the Faculty Club rests on the Eastern edge of UCLA’s expansive campus. Originally conceived as a dining club and retreat, it featured a games room, private library, and lounge where university staff could unwind. The Club quickly established itself as a focal point for the campus’ academic community, becoming its de facto social club and hosting many events. Today it opens its doors to couples celebrating the most important day of their lives. Guests are welcomed into its banquet hall, whose windows stretch from the floor all the way to the top of its raftered ceiling. It is a space flooded with natural light, which complements its open plan and mid-century modern aesthetic. Couples can also avail of the venue’s California patio for a sun-soaked ceremony before posing for an elegant photo session on the campus’ iconic Janss Steps. Marrying on the grounds of UCLA is to say ‘I do’ in an atmosphere filled with over a century of tradition and knowledge. UCLA FACULTY CLUB's staff are here to help couples celebrate their love. They offer packages that are comprehensive and include everything from bar service and furniture rental, to set and breakdown of events. Couples can choose from a selection of venue spaces for a guest list of up to 500 loved ones, including any canine well-wishers. The club's catering team prepares a variety of masterfully prepared dishes, made from locally sourced produce. They can serve guests in a number of styles including laid-back buffet service, or a more formal seated dinner.
