Wedding trends may come and go, but intimate and small wedding venues continue to stand the test of time. Since some couples want their big day to be smaller based on the guest list, style, budget, or all of the above, this type of event continues to be in demand. This is especially true in popular cities such as Long Beach and the surrounding Los Angeles area. The scenic Southern California setting serves as a picture-perfect backdrop for festivities. With views of world-famous beaches, Rainbow Harbor, the aquarium, and the Queen Mary in your sightline, determining the ideal way to incorporate them isn’t easy. That’s why it’s important to choose the perfect venue, and one on the water courtesy of City Cruises is definitely an option that tops the rest.

The Charm of Intimate Weddings in Los Angeles
A few significant drawbacks to large weddings are expenses, extensive planning, stress, and the lack of time to spend with family and friends once the occasion arrives. In fact, those are among the reasons so many brides and grooms gravitate towards intimate weddings and smaller occasions. Plus, customizing the experience can be easier due to the flexibility these events offer. In lieu of that, finding a venue that aligns with the couple’s vision can be easier—but it doesn’t make the experience any less important. Tremendous consideration and care must be part of the process to meet all needs, requirements, wants, and aspirations.

Exploring Small Wedding Venues in Long Beach—and Beyond
Long Beach and the surrounding Los Angeles area feature beautiful beaches and gorgeous greenery, and a diverse range of intimate wedding venues for couples. Whether it’s historic landmarks, cozy bistros, or unique spaces such as art galleries or museums, brides and grooms can seek out venues based on how each can accommodate them and what location suits them best. While some beach locales bring a touch of romance to the table or a park ceremony prompts a nature-loving vibe, other spots closer to downtown or even in the city can bring a buzzy, vibrant feel no matter how many guests are attending the event.

Newport Beach is one of the most gorgeous places on earth. Whether you’re hosting a bridal shower, bachelor/bachelorette party, post-wedding brunch, engagement party, or the wedding itself, the city will be the premier backdrop for all your photography needs.
