Fun. Timeless. Romantic.

unique wedding venues

Three16 Photography loves photographing weddings at unique wedding venues throughout Orange County, Los Angeles and surrounding areas of Southern California. One of the unique things we love about photographing weddings in Southern California are all the quirky locations or the odd things that are offered to brides and grooms from these particular venues.

Just to give you a few examples:




  • In Long Beach, you can have your ceremony on a Gondola Getaway. Yep, on a gondola while cruising the harbor.

Keep in mind, like any other wedding venue, each location has their share of pros and cons, but if you opt for a unique wedding venue, it should be fun and a great experience. Here are just a few unique wedding venues in Orange County that we have had the pleasure of photographing at: Richard Nixon Library, Rancho Las Lomas, The Wilcox ManorVilla Del Sol and the Old Orange County Courthouse.

If you are looking for a unique wedding venue in the Los Angeles area, or outside of Orange County and Los Angeles, we recommend the Taglyan Complex, Calamigos Ranch, The Houdini Estate, the Gondola Getaway, and the Calvary Chapel Bible College
