    The website for The Grand Theater advertises free self-parking for guests. However, I was charged $10 and given a receipt from their All Events Catering that listed the charge as "Arabe" instead of parking. Staff on site presented it as a required parking fee, which directly contradicts what's stated online. This created confusion and felt misleading. The venue should ensure only authorized personnel collect any fees and that parking policies are clearly communicated and enforced on-site to avoid this kind of experience for other visitors.

    I recently organized a big event for my Artesia high school ... 50-year reunion with 180 people attending on October 5th at the Grand Theater Event Center in Anaheim. Liz and her staff are super friendly and professional, we had a live band with a dance floor and a photo booth. The buffet dinner was excellent too. I highly recommend this place.

    Venue yelp review First off all I want to say our wedding was great and so much fun! The venue did a great job of making our vision come to life. Everything was very elegant and romantic. The staff was great. The bartenders did a great job and kept the bar with no lines the whole night. The drinks were delicious. Everyone raved about the food even the picky eaters. Now I will say it's best to get everything that is promised in writing just to avoid confusion later on! It'll save you the headaches. And keep in mind most of the add ons will have the tax and service fee on top of the price. But overall, we were completely satisfied with our wedding and our vendors and it was definitely a night to remember.

    Great place to have your special event such as quinceañeras, wedding or private event! Place is really flexible with vendors coming in early and letting them set up their services which was a great experience, then the organizer of the day Janett was really helpful with all the activities of the event! I highly recommend this venue !!!

    Our wedding experience through the Chapel of Orange (thanks to Melissa & Cheryl) from our very…read morefirst consult visit through to its conclusion was enjoyable, positively memorable, and most importantly - SO EASY!!! Initially, my wife and I didn't believe we would be able to locate a wedding venue to move forward with our vision for an intimate and whimsical wedding aesthetic. So much so that we were a hair trigger away from eloping. Thankfully, as a final measure, we decided to create a checklist of required items that a wedding venue had to have for us to consider moving forward with a wedding including but not limited to; 1) an organic set of barebones / overall aesthetic that would pair well with a playful and lighthearted whimsical evening themed wedding aesthetic that in no way resembled the typical cookie cutter wedding 2) efficiently organized with strong vendor relations and/or recommendations, and 3) cost effective in the context of a smaller guest list of about 70. From the thoughtfully salvaged bricks from a to-be torn down structure in Europe that made up the archways of the reception area to the beautiful garden area rich with lush plants flowers nestled cozily between the ceremony and reception areas, the Chapel of Orange had checked off every box we had without us having to compromise. The well oiled machine that was Melissa and Cheryl far fostered a positive wedding planning experience as they handled EVERYTHING in such an unflappable manner. In addition to coordinating and scheduling design appointments, Melissa coordinated the vendors running their part correctly from the florist, to the videographer, to the Photo Booth, to the DJ, to the caterer, to the cake designer, and all the way down the list to the highly talented photographer Ashley Paige. Melissa also gave us a month by month wedding checklist to follow along to at the very start which made the ongoing planning process easy to follow while also simultaneously reducing any wedding related anxiety stemming from the feeling that we had forgotten some important detail along the way. Melissa's incredibly consistent and reliable communication as well as clear direction cut any unnecessary internal and external noise that went into the wedding process. Dates for big decisions such as our food tasting, table design, and final rehearsal were planned well in advance, allowing us to do nothing more than be present and direct the final decisions. Additionally, Melissa facilitated for the florist consult date and the DJ online phone meeting to verify lighting and song choices. The day of rehearsal, we dropped off all our supplemental DIY designs for our themed wedding and Melissa handled the rest of set-up. The day of the wedding was smooth like butter; Melissa had... 1) our parking spaces reserved with bright orange cones for us as well members of the wedding party, 2) boutonnieres ready and pinned members of the wedding party as they arrived 3) both the groom and bride's prep rooms staged and ready to go, 4) and all vendors on standby and ready for instruction. I have no doubt that Melissa handled so many more fires behind the scenes as my wife and I didn't have a single hiccup or moment where we had to step away to address a concern. It was marvelous, and the best day of our lives. TLDR: The Chapel of Orange runs like a well cared for and harmonious machine headed by Melissa and Cheryl. At each step of the way, they took the feedback we had the day of our wedding, executed the upper limit of potential we had for our whimsical garden wedding.

We truly cannot recommend this venue enough. The space itself is so intimate and special, and it created the perfect atmosphere for our day. Every detail came together seamlessly, and it meant so much to see our vision fully brought to life.

We received so many compliments from our family and friends about how beautiful everything was, how delicious the food tasted, and how smoothly the night went, which is a true reflection of Cheryl and her team. We are especially grateful for how accommodating and patient Cheryl was throughout the entire process. No matter how many questions or requests we had, she always made us feel heard and supported, and that made all the difference during such an important time in our lives. We will cherish these memories forever--especially the bubble send-off!!

Our wedding coordinator Katie put in so much work for our wedding and we are so grateful for everything she did for us. She gets things done!

We started planning our July wedding in January 2022, and we wanted to have everything outside so that guests wouldn't worry about masking indoors during the time of Covid. The Griffith House has huge space for everything. The other great thing that others have already mentioned is that, other than table, chair, and bar rentals, you get to choose your own vendors and bring your own alcohol - provided you pay for their bartender and security, of course. You do have to work with (and pay) one of their in-house day-of coordinators from Hutchinson Weddings, but Amy, who we we worked with, was very helpful working through the rentals that we used from the venue, as well as coordinating our outside vendors on the day of the wedding. We really wanted to choose our own caterer and bakeries, to choose wines and beers that we liked, and to bring my own pro audio equipment for the ceremony and music. The Griffith House let us do all that.

I had Facebook live and my husband had zoom on his. This allowed all of our friends and family to attend from near and far. We got there at 1030am to set up and sign the documents. Then the ceremony started at 11am and finished at 11:11am! It did not take us 1 hour to get married, took us longer to set up than it did for the whole process lol. The BEST part is they do EVERYTHING that deals with paperwork for you! During covid, that meant everything because I didnt have to worry about going to file at the county, or deal with people.

It was heartfelt and very touching. She has a deep understanding of Jewish traditions and was also happy to incorporate some Catholic elements. Since our guests came from a variety of religious backgrounds, she explained each prayer and tradition during the ceremony so everyone could understand and appreciate their significance. One particularly special moment was when we included the Mi Sheberach prayer for a sick relative. It made the ceremony feel even more personal, and Mitzi sang it so beautifully. Many of our guests commented afterward on how meaningful and lovely the ceremony was. We are so grateful for the care and thoughtfulness that went into making our wedding ceremony so memorable.

I was married at this location on August 1, 2015, and they are the PERFECT location for small, intimate wedding. The chapel holds about 80 people comfortably. They offer a great wedding package that includes the wedding coordinator, music, and decorations. For an added fee you can hire their minister or you can bring your own wedding officiant. In addition, they have an onsite kitchen, so for an additional charge, you could also hold your reception on the premises. I love this place for weddings because the chapel is a "real" church. It's not some room made up to look like a wedding site. In addition, the grounds are beautiful. There's a lovely yard and a gazebo in the back. I highly suggest that if you are looking for a low-cost place to hold a smaller wedding that you give Christ Church Unity a call. I copied and pasted the info below from their website: An economical wedding package is offered starting as low as $699.00 3 hours for your wedding. This begins 1-1/2 hours before the ceremony with your rehearsal. (Other rehearsal times may be arranged, ask for details.)

To reserve your wedding date and time requires a nonrefundable deposit of $200. The balance is due four weeks prior to your wedding.
