For ceremonies, you can tie the knot on the beach, which is a dream for many couples. With your toes in the sand and an azure ocean backdrop, sunset is the perfect time to plan the ceremony. For a more elegant option, including those much-desired sea views, the Vista Lawn can accommodate large groups. A poolside ceremony is very summery, with palm trees in the background and a terrace wedding is intimate and private for smaller weddings.
There are five ballrooms for the wedding reception, all glamorous and stylish. Personally, I like the Pacific Ballroom which features floor-to-ceiling windows and a balcony for moments outside when you want to feel the salty ocean breeze on your cheeks. With so many options, you really should go for a venue visit and see the possibilities. You are able to wow your guests by changing the location for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and as for the photo opportunities at this 5-star hotel, there are so many scenic backdrops.

No matter what location is chosen for exchanging rings and vows, we almost always hop to the beach for bridal parties and couple portraits. There is something so timeless and romantic about dancing on the sand during your first moments as a married couple. It's a spacious and clean beach, so also for large bridal parties, it is great for group photos. It's one of the many reasons we love shooting weddings there.
If you want your guests to stay together and maybe celebrate over several days, the accommodation is lovely. In the Huntington or Twin Dolphin Tower, there are rooms and suites for solos, couples and families. Modern decor, comfortable beds, luxury amenities and furnishings and those dreamy ocean vistas are all part of the deal. The hotel is also pet friendly and has easy access for guests with mobility issues.
The hotel encourages couples to host bridal events such as welcome dinners, bachelor and bachelorette parties and farewell brunches. You can expect the food and drink at the Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort to be delicious and well-presented, with talented chefs who consider weddings to be occasions where the menus should shine. Doesn't the Hilton brand always exceed expectations? With signature cocktails, creative food combinations and striking wedding cakes, you can be sure the dining will be a highlight of your wedding day.
This Orange County wedding venue that has many elegant backdrops for elopements, intimate weddings, or big multi-day wedding celebrations should be on every couple's list of potential venues. Being right on the beach, it really does have it all! A dedicated in-house wedding planner will help bring your wedding vision to life if you don't hire an external planner.
