Nestled in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, The Oviatt offers a stunning Art Deco-inspired wedding venue that promises a blend of historic elegance and modern sophistication. Originally built in 1928 as a penthouse for the flamboyant James Oviatt, this venue now serves as an enchanting space for couples to celebrate their union. With a capacity to host up to 120 guests, The Oviatt seamlessly combines ornate historic details with the charm of the roaring 20s, providing a chic and sophisticated backdrop for weddings and special events.

The Oviatt is defined by its opulent ambiance and authentic old-world charm. Inside the penthouse, guests will discover a variety of elegantly designed spaces, including a study, a living room perfect for gatherings, and a bedroom often used as a “getting ready room.” The true gem is the Art Deco bar and cocktail lounge, which exudes vintage allure. The venue extends to a two-story rooftop terrace, providing a breathtaking setting for nuptial festivities and culinary experiences. Featuring Lalique glass decor, mahogany furniture, parquet wood floors, and intricate carved woodworks, the interior offers flexibility for couples to incorporate their unique style, while the expansive terrace offers panoramic views of the vibrant cityscape.

The Oviatt’s experienced event management team is dedicated to ensuring a seamless planning process, working closely with couples to design and execute unforgettable celebrations. Their expertise in event coordination ensures that every detail is meticulously planned, allowing couples to focus on enjoying their special day. The venue provides an array of event items, including banquet tables and black linens, and while the bar programming remains in-house, couples have the flexibility to bring in outside bartenders and catering services, provided that alcohol is sourced through The Oviatt. The event team is also ready to offer a list of preferred catering partners or accommodate outside catering preferences.

With its rich history and luxurious setting, The Oviatt is an ideal venue for couples seeking a unique, stylish, and memorable wedding experience. Its blend of historic charm and modern amenities, coupled with panoramic views of Downtown Los Angeles, makes it a standout choice for those wanting to celebrate their love in an iconic location. Whether you’re drawn to its Art Deco elegance or its flexible event offerings, The Oviatt promises an unforgettable backdrop for your special day.
