A Wedding Ceremony and Reception at the Ebell of Los Angeles
The Ebell’s clubhouse offers two locations to host your wedding and reception, the Lounge or the Courtyard and Dining Room. You can choose to have all of your festivities in the Lounge (pictured below), with it’s soaring ceilings, intricate woodwork, and floor-to-ceiling arched windows.
The Lounge also features a grand staircase and a mezzanine level where guests can watch the proceedings from above.
The gilded ceiling and wrought-iron chandeliers in the Lounge are emblematic of the Ebell’s early-20th-century Italian-Renaissance style.
The second location you can choose for your ceremony and/or reception is the Dining Room, which opens up to the adjoining Courtyard. Also lovely with a series of carved archways, the Dining Room is a more intimate space than the majestic Lounge, but it provides the added flexibility of an indoor-outdoor celebration.
The Courtyard in the moonlight is a romantic, sumptuous spot for a private moment together and some couple’s photography.
