From the reviews

My husband and I are UCI alumni, and we definitely enjoyed the idea of having our wedding reception at our Alma Mater. If we could give more stars, we would! Marissa, Hailey, and Kevin are an excellent team who really take care of you and you and your FS's special day. We had 7 months to prepare for our wedding.

★★★★★ — Team, Jan 2019

As a vendor servicing a wedding with our Annnd...Action! Photo Booth, we were really really impressed with the venue and team at Wedgewood University Club. It started with our phone outreach to the team to get all the details we needed for the big day.

★★★★★ — Victoria, Mar 2023

Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more, and we owe so much of that to the incredible team at Wedgewood Weddings. From the planning process to the last dance, every detail was handled with care, professionalism, and genuine kindness.

★★★★★ — Xuan, Jun 2026

Our experience with The University Club by Wedgewood Weddings has exceeded our expectations at every step. Our first challenge in the wedding planning process was finding the right venue.

Getting married at University Club by Wedgewood Weddings

University Club by Wedgewood Weddings comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
