A Hollywood Roosevelt Wedding
The Hollywood Roosevelt is one of Southern California’s most iconic and historic hotels. First opened in 1927, the Hollywood Roosevelt is the oldest continually operating hotel in all of Los Angeles. It has undergone a series of renovations over the decades to be restored to its original Spanish Colonial splendor. With claim-to-fames such as housing Marilyn Monroe for two years early in her career and hosting the first-ever Academy Awards ceremony, the Hollywood Roosevelt is an original piece of Hollywood glamour and will be the perfect spot for your unforgettable wedding.
