The Ebell Club of Long Beach is our latest venue spotlight. It’s also the venue for our CONFIDENT BRIDE WORKSHOP, being held on March 2nd. I have great affection for The Ebell, because it’s where my beautiful niece Michelle and her groom Jeremy were married. Beauty is only one aspect of choosing a venue. Service is equally as important. As a coordinator, I can personally attest to the fact that the entire staff, led by Liz Palmer is THE BEST. Not only is she the Special Events Manager, she is the owner. Her history with her venue is a LOVE STORY. Liz found this hidden gem and married there. Shortly after she realized she had to own this building and share it with other brides. One of those brides was her own sister Allison, who now works with Liz. Imagine a venue where the people who operate it have a history and love for it. Want to know more? Read Liz’s Story.

With further delay….here is the VENUE SPOTLIGHTHow many guests can you accommodate?  We can accommodate up to 200 for ceremony. 200 for buffet meal, 158 if a sit-down.

Do you book more than one event per day? No, we only hold one event at a time.

What is your favorite feature of your venue? Our favorite feature is hard to narrow to just one.  If we must, then it would be the overall architecture of the building.  The Spanish style columns and courtyard create an outdoor feel with old-world charm.Give us the top three reasons why couples should book your venue for their wedding/reception.

1. We are a hidden Gem-We are am amazing venue that is tucked away on a quiet street. When people find us they feel that they have discovered something different and unique.  Guests  are awe-inspired by the building and the romantic atmosphere.
