Few venues have seen history quite like La Venta Inn. The land was recognized as a California Point of Historical Interest and dates back to the early 1920's when it acted as clubhouse for realtors and prospective land holders. La Venta Inn served as both a black-tie restaurant and tourist retreat before becoming a watch tower during World War II for use by the US Coast Guard. By 1944, La Venta Inn was a private estate, and in 1992 the estate partnered with New York Food Company to restore the grounds to the secluded breath of fresh air it is today.

With both an indoor and outdoor capacity of 250 guests, La Venta Inn has the dream spaces for your wedding day. The grand hall boasts open, lofty ceilings with antique accents such as wrought-iron chandeliers and a classic fireplace ,as well as French doors opening up to a stone patio where sweeping California views await. At the edge of the lawn stands a lovely white gazebo overlooking the coast surrounded by blooming flowers and greenery, the most scenic spot to say "I do."

Following your vows, impeccably prepared and presented cuisine accompanied by hand-crafted cocktails by New York Food Company set the tone for a perfect reception. Every menu is customized and fine-tuned to your personal tastes and wedding style.
