OVIATT PENTHOUSE?

I am thinking about having my wedding and reception at the Oviatt Penthouse in downtown Los Angeles. Has anyone else had a wedding there or been there for a wedding? I am wonderning if there were any major problems. Any advice or info is appreciated.

Hi,

I was also thinking of having my wedding at the Oviatt next August. Wondering if you got any feedback on your post. I would love to know of any stories you received.

Thanks

I`m also looking at this as a wedding site for next spring. Have you had any feedback or seen any wedding photos there?

I am also looking at the Oviatt for my wedding and reception next fall. Did you receive any comments, yet? I am touring the site next week, but would love to hear from someone with real life experience there. Thanks, Natalie

I just got married there last month and it was wonderful. I tried posting my tips here before but PartyPop thought I was a business and didn`t let it through. Please call me direct 323-574-1890 and I will help out however I can. Good luck!

Hi, I`m planning a 2005 wedding and my fiance & I are interested in taking a look at the Oviatt. Natalie I was wondering how your site tour went? (I`ve left several messages for the contact there & she hasn`t returned my calls.) JC I was also wondering if it would be okay to give you a call & find out how your wedding there went. Thanks!

JC,
I tried to call you about the Oviatt, but the number wasn`t in service. Could you e-mail me at jenhonocean@yahoo.com? I`d love to hear about your wedding.

Jenny-
I also had a hard time getting in touch with the contact for the Oviatt. It took her over a week to get back to me, but she was very helpful once we spoke. The tour was interesting, but I was not very impressed. I was just afraid that my guests and I would not be comfortable there. It is a very cool, historical property, but just not exactly what I had hoped. Hope that helps.

I just had my wedding reception there, and it was AMAZING!!!! Our guests couldn`t get over the place, and it was better than we could have hoped. It helped that the weather was perfect.

We had 75 people, and it was a great number. Don`t use this place if you`ve got much more than that - if your guests are crowded, it`s not worth it.

Let me know if you`ve got any questions. I`m happy to send pictures of our event, if you`d like.

Julie!

I`m getting married at the oviatt this Spring and I went to a wedding there last year. It`s very beautiful and since they do so many weddings it`s pretty much a standard deal. The woman who manages the site isn`t a good communicator - she doesn`t return calls for awhile and she can leave out major pieces of information. You just need to keep on her, but it`s a drag. Everyone else associated with it is great, though.
