If you're looking for the most romantic venue in the LA area, look no further. It's like stepping into a fairytale with all of the string lights. We absolutely loved getting married here. Amanda was great at coordinating everything and the list if their preferred vendors helped us tremendously. And because it's a restaurant, the food is delicious. Do yourself a favor and check out this venue for yourself.

Disclosure: we did not use this venue but feel our experience is worth sharing. The restaurant is lovely and beautiful and would get a 5/5 but my experience with their wedding staff, primarily coordinator Amanda is what is prompting me to write this and warn other future brides. First of all I am so so sad this venue didn't work out for us. My fiancé and I spent our first Valentine's Day together in Topanga and ate here for brunch (LOVELY brunch buffet by the way) so in addition to being a beautiful venue, had personal meaning to us, adding all the more to the devastation of it not working out. Here is a timeline of events: Nov 3 2022: after visiting in person we reached out to get a proposal based date/wedding size. Nov 9: Amanda responds saying she will get proposal done and send it out.Dec 28: We check in after not receiving anything. Jan 2 2023: she said she sent it to incorrect email and will resend.Jan 6: follow up again after no emailJan 6: Immediate response, Amanda says will get it to is tomorrowJan 9: we follow up because still no emailJan 9: she says she is out of office until Jan 11 and will send it then Jan 13: after still no response we email the general manager. Jan 15: we suddenly receive our proposal... no response from the manager. We didn't respond and they never followed up so we ended up going with a venue down the road from them in Topanga.Reading reviews I see that Amanda was then a recent change from a previous coordinator named Holly that had lovely reviews. Such a shame she can't simply respond to emails. If she can't even do that, how could I possibly entrust her with coordinating my wedding? The venue forces you to work with her by the way, no outside coordinators allowed. If Amanda is still working at Inn of the Seventh Ray, I say stay the hell away. Great dinner/date spot but can absolutely not endorse the wedding coordinator they force you to work with if you want to get married there.

We got had a little wedding and dinner for 10 people here April 3, 2023. Amanda was our wedding planner, and it was just perfect! Our mission was to find a sacred space where we could have a ceremony nestled in nature, and have a delicious dinner as well. We could not have been happier with the location, the decor, the service, and the food and cake, too! Because of the beauty of the setting, we didn't need to pay for flowers, only a light decoration of the huppah, which they have available.There was an issue with our spotify not hooking up to the speaker which was a bit distracting, but that can be avoided with a sound check, which we failed to do.The cost is very affordable and I really felt like the staff and planner cared very much and really felt like part of our wedding party!Because of all the rain, the creek bed had water flowing, which also was a lovely touch to get married over rushing water. I would highly recommend the Inn for a very special experience.

Our wedding was absolutely stunning. We heard from many guests that it was the most delicious wedding food they'd ever had and we agree! We went with Miso-Glazed Seabass, Braised Shortribs, and Vegan Lasagna. For dessert, we did a vanilla custard cake with fresh strawberries, fruit tarts, panna cotta, blueberry cobbler, and lemon bars. They had many delicious vegan and gluten-free options!Amanda was an incredible coordinator for our wedding. For the planning process, she was communicative and accessible for any of my questions or concerns. The weekend of our wedding was the historic winter storm here in Los Angeles. I was so worried, but Amanda handled everything with grace. She rearranged our entire floor-plan to make sure our guests stayed dry. She coordinated with our many vendors effectively, handling all necessary adjustments for inclement weather. She supported our wacky wedding choices and helped make them successful. She even brought us champagne when we were annoyed with our families! You'll be lucky to have her on your team.

The venue, itself, is gorgeous and the workers helped make my night magical. However, the first wedding coordinator quit and left with a sour tone. Her replacement never showed up to my rehearsal or wedding. The assistant, bartender, kitchen staff, and my own family/friends were left to pick up the pieces. Super unprofessional and disappointing.

Our wedding was the absolute best day ever, and Holly and the rest of the team at the Inn of the Seventh Ray are a huge reason why! Holly is just stupendous - she is so responsive and helpful, and she just gets everything done. The venue is stunning and so romantic. We had our dance floor around the fountain, and it was so much fun, and our photos are gorgeous! The food is also delicious. I can't even count the number of people who commented on how good the food was (along with the comments about how beautiful the venue was). The staff was also amazing. Everyone was just so friendly and fun, and it made the experience just that much better! Someone even helped me with the flowers in my hair when she saw that they were starting to fall out. It was just the most magical day in the most magical, romantic place. I cannot imagine picking a different venue. Another bonus - we can go back and have anniversary dinners there!

Kalen coordinated our wedding day and did a great job. She was on top of everything and made sure nothing went wrong. She made us feel comfortable and confident that everything was taken care of. I couldn't be happier with this venue and their vendor recommendations were superb. Thank you for making a beautiful lasting memory that we will always cherish.

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner / welcome party here and it was absolutely perfect. The ambiance is out of this world - it literally is a fairy tale. But more importantly, the staff was amazing. Jared our event coordinator nailed it. Their attention to detail was better than our actual wedding venue the following day. Jared made sure to ask who all of the special people were that had special requests at the start of the event and made sure everything was running smoothly. They were also the most friendly staff. They made everything feel laid back. I'm sure we stayed a little bit past our time but they never once made us feel like they were kicking us out. The food was all great, the alcohol was good and our guests really enjoyed themselves. I am so so satisfied with our experience here and would give them 10 stars if I could

Our wedding day was a absolute dream. Weddings are supposed to be hard and stressful. The staff at Inn of the Seventh Ray, make that a absolute myth. They are extremely organized. And while I know they were working their butts off all night (and leading up to the event), its to their credit that they don’t just make it look easy, that make it feel easy for the Bride and Groom. We fell for the Wedding Coordinator, Holly, immediately. She helped us throughout our year planning period. This is not someone that just shows up to tell you where to stand on day of, she is very involved from day one. Due to a personal situation, we learned that Holly couldn’t actually be there for our wedding a few weeks beforehand. It is not just a credit to how detailed she was through all of our meetings, but to all of her staff- especially Beth and Kat that day of we didn’t even notice that this person who had been so involved through the whole process wasn’t there. Beth and Kat were incredible and put us completely at ease and we were able to just have fun! The food is amazing. The space is beautiful. The mashed potato bar is still being discussed by all our family and friends as the best thing ever. Book Inn of the Seventh Ray and make your whole wedding planning process easy.

You cannot find a better place in the greater LA area to get married. The atmosphere is incomparable - secluded and romantic. Our guests kept calling it “fairy tale”-like. The food... oh my god, the food. We got SO MANY compliments on the menu we selected and I ended up eating waaaaay too much (which is pretty rare for a bride on her wedding day) just because the food was to die for. Best of all is wedding coordinator Holly Orr. She is incredibly organized yet flexible and will do whatever she needs to do in order for your day to come out exactly right. She was always very helpful and communicative and made sure every single thing went perfectly day of! Seriously, nothing went wrong, which is unbelievable. The staff was also so great, so helpful, I could not speak more highly of them and how they essentially waited on us hand and foot. My husband and I knew immediately that the Inn was where we wanted to have our wedding and we couldn’t have imagined it would go so well.

I don't even know where to begin to sing my praise for this place. It's absolutely beautiful, filled with little treasures, and a totally delightful getaway in the middle of LA. From the moment we showed up, Kelly was helpful and warm. And the day of our wedding? Boy oh boy she went above and beyond to make sure every detail was in place and that me and my groom and our loved ones were well taken care of. It was rainy on our wedding day which wasn't ideal in my mind at first, but ended up being one of the most memorable and fun experiences of my life. Those guests (and vendors) who wanted or needed to stay dry had plenty of covering. And the adventurous ones who enjoyed dancing in the rain (like me and my now husband) had the time of our lives. From our first communication, Kelly was always very quick to respond, really helpful, and her whole crew made our day run perfectly. I am so grateful we chose this place for so many reasons!

Kelly somehow managed to keep track of all of the details we agreed on together, even little things buried deep within email chains. She must be incredibly organized! The budget was clear:Kelly helped lay everything out in a way where it was completely clear what was included and what every cost would be. There were no surprises whatsoever. I really appreciated this clarity and trustworthiness. The budget was reasonable:We had thought something so gorgeous in SoCal (and with good food) would be well above our budget. I think our wedding really came off looking much more expensive than it really was.The atmosphere:When we saw this place, we felt peaceful, and at home, and like we were in a lovely forest. We hadn’t seen the place in the dark until our reception, and that’s when we were really struck by how completely amazing it is. The twinkling lights came on everywhere, and it felt elegant, intimate, and absolutely magical. Decor:The ONLY decorations we added were our centerpieces and a bundle of flower petals which made the fountain look amazing, and also looked nice at the edges of the ceremony steps. Nothing else was needed.The food:We had the following:Artisanal grilled cheese rounds, Crostini with avocado and tomato, shaved Brussel Sprout Salad and wedge salad, grilled Salmon with Citrus Salsa and Wagyu Flat Iron with a Port Reduction, Truffle mashed potatoes and wild mushroomsWe loved all of the food, and got compliments on it from guests. It looked attractive, and tasted great. The “flow” of the evening:This is where the Inn of the Seventh Ray staff really shined. They were soooo on top of things!! Somehow they managed to have every detail in place, and yet remained flexible enough to help us when we wanted to “adjust on the fly.” My husband and I wanted to move up our “Grand Entrance” because it turned out we felt eager to re-join the party. Since it seemed odd for our guests to greet us and then go back to cocktail hour, Kelly asked, “Would you want me to see if we can move up dinner? I can talk to the chefs!” I was amazed that with almost no notice at all, they moved dinner 15 min earlier for us! Dinner for 75 people! I don’t know how they did it! Every step of the way, Kelly and the other staff made sure things went smoothly. They even helped with some things related to set-up and clean up that we had fully expected would be our responsibilities. Kelly even held our little ring-bearer’s hand and let him know when it was his turn to go (a very sweet moment that I’ll always remember). After everything my husband and I invested leading up to that day, in terms of time and money, it meant the world to us to have such kind and highly competent people helping make it all happen! We were able to relax and have fun, knowing that Kelly and the Inn of the Seventh Ray staff really knew what they were doing! They were terrific!

We just had our wedding at the Inn in April 2016. The venue itself is lovely for a wedding and the food was fantastic. My wedding coordinator Kelly Hancock was such a disappointment. I originally had Heidi Wahl and she had left the venue for some reason and no one ever contacted me until I had emailed her to set up a tasting. Kelly is fast in her emails replies but she was disorganized and not proactive. I was the one constantly asking about details, scheduling tastings, and the rehearsal. Even our wedding rehearsal run through was a mess. She was telling my bridesmaids and groomsmen to stand incorrectly and she was just so frazzled and disorganized. I understand they are day of coordinators and not your personal wedding coordinators but even the day of my wedding, she was a mess. If my bridesmaids and friends had not helped out with the table place cards, setting up tables, escort cards, etc. My DJ and photographer also really stepped up and helped coordinate the whole wedding. She was also rude to my bridesmaid that was trying to help and do her job which is very unprofessional. Multiple things I had emailed her about and she agreed upon was not done the day of the wedding for example certain tables for my dessert table and escort cards. She had promised to save parking in the front for my family so it would be easier moving items in and out of the venue. We had paid extra money per person to have more food and she didn't make sure the restaurant delivered. I honestly don't understand what was going on with her if she had too many weddings on her plate but it was very frustrating and annoying as a bride to deal with someone like her especially the day of my wedding. If you are looking to book this venue for your wedding I would highly recommend it but I would suggest you request another coordinator.

I met with a ton of venues and talked to a ton of different coordinators and Heidi definitely led the pack in terms of being the best, and wanting to provide the best for her clients. She is detail oriented, thorough, has great creative vision, and most of all - she works hard to give the bride what she wants. I would highly recommend Inn of the Seventh Ray (and Heidi!!) to anyone looking for a spot to host a romantic, and elegant wedding!

With the twinkling lights set beside a creek in the forest of Topanga Canyon, I felt like I got married in a fairytale setting. The food was scrumptious and the service was spectacular. Kirsten Halbert, our coordinator, was fantastic. She took such great care of us and our families. And she was always there for me, prompt with her responses, during the months and days leading up to the wedding. Kat, and the rest of the staff were also amazing.

Words cannot express how happy my groom & I are to have chosen the Inn of the Seventh Ray for our wedding! In fact, I cannot imagine a better choice if you are someone who cares about ecological sustainability and serving organic food. Pretty much every detail of the day was PERFECT, actually exceeding my (high) expectations. If you have ever been here, you already know how beautiful, tranquil, lush, & romantic the venue is.... & when transformed for a wedding it is nothing short of magical! We felt a million miles away from Los Angeles. In addition, the food & cake were fantastic (many guests commented that they have never tasted a more delicious wedding cake), it is all organic, & the service was outstanding. Kirsten, the wedding coordinator, is amazing! She is full of great ideas, very accommodating of requests to customize the details, & she is able to keep track of everything you throw at her with nothing falling through the cracks. Seriously, this girl is good! Best of all, I feel like she genuinely cared about helping us to create the wedding of our dreams, & that really meant a lot. The venue is not inexpensive, but I will say that you definitely get a lot of value for the price. They were very generous about including many little \"extras\" (which is so often not the case in the wedding industry). Thank you Kirsten & everyone at the Inn of the Seventh Ray!!

We had a midday wedding and the venue was beautiful, the guests raved about the food and the staff was cheerful and made for an overall great experience. I was a bit disappointed that they hadn't explained the way wine was being served...instead of servers filling individual glasses as we expected, the glasses were put out on tray for guests to just grab when they wanted, resulting in undoubtably more alcohol being consumed than otherwise would have been. It didn't cause any real issue, I just would have liked it to have been explained clearly to me the method of service. We had 80-85 people on the 'fountain patio' and it was perfect. A great spot.

The food, cake, and drinks were amazing, the decorations perfect, and the ambiance was just what we were looking for: romantic, natural, and memorable. Many of our guests commented on what a perfect site it was for a wedding. The service was great as well, and we thought all in all, it was a great value for how much we were charged. It seemed much more affordable than other places we looked at, esp. since they had reduced rates for wintertime and daytime. Our wedding coordinator (provided by the venue) was good overall, but sometimes difficult to communicate with in advance of the wedding. But everything turned out great so we were more than happy...especially once we got our photos that remind us of what a beautiful, special place it really is.

We were married in November 2010 at the Inn of the Seventh Ray, and have only the most positive things to say about Wedding Coordinator Kelly Hancock and the entire staff of the Inn. We had an incredible experience there and recommend the Inn very highly. Both our wedding ceremony and reception were held at the Inn. \r\rFrom the very start, it was apparently that Kelly was entirely organized and on top of her game. Both before we booked the Inn and after, she returned emails and phone calls promptly, and was always available for questions, no matter how small. The pricing breakdown for the Inn was sent to us in a clear and concise spreadsheet that was much more detailed than many other venues that we looked at. Budget discussions were met with a can-do attitude, without any judgment. Kelly clearly wanted us to have the best day possible, and did everything she could do make it happen within our means without pressuring us to spend more than we were able. \r\rThe Inn has a unique, magical feel to it, and Kelly took the time to make sure that each wedding was a unique arrangement. Her suggestions were very helpful but never pressing, and she was open to any ideas or requests that we had. \r\rKelly provided recommendations for many vendors who worked with the Inn in the past in various different price ranges, all of whom we were thrilled to work with, and will provide separate reviews for them. \r\rOn the day of the rehearsal, with our wedding party in from out of town, and all of us excited and nervous about the upcoming celebrations, we were all very distracted, but Kelly kept us all focused in a very friendly, gentle way, and was kind and courteous to our parents and family. We could tell that she'd worked with many wedding parties before. On that afternoon, we brought Kelly boxes of things for the following day (i.e. our programs, seating cards, favors, iPod for DJ, etc), and she took care of everything.\r\rThe wedding went beautifully, and Kelly and the amazing staff at the Inn took care of everything perfectly. They were available for our requests and needs at a moment's notice, and our guests felt well taken care of in all regards. Absolutely everything was wonderful, and we couldn't have been happier. We were truly in good hands, and would highly recommend working with Kelly Hancock and the Inn of the Seventh Ray.

The foliage was beautiful. At night you hear toads croaking in the creek and they had twinkling lights. Hidden away in the mountains, private. They provide tents and heaters if needed. Great food! Organic, but tasty. Even served Vegan food if needed. Great Organic wine and appetizers. Great Presentation. Most guests didn't know food was Organic. Wedding Planner was excellent. When added flowers it was beautiful. Had fun tasting the menu. Wedding cake was awesome and no one could tell it was all Organic.;They have a small parking area and they provide free Valet parking for weddings. Small restaurant, so no huge weddings. It can get tight.The larger weddings are about 150 guests. Very intimate. A bit of a drive up Topanga Canyon with winding roads, But worth the effort. I recommend Abuelita's Mexican Restaurant down the street for Rehearsal dinner. They're convenient and alongside the creek also. Great out door dining and banquet facilities. Makes it easier for guests. Manager Manuel is great!!

All of the food served is organic and sustainable very health conscious but also delicious. The ambiance has a very outdoorsy but elegant and romantic feel.;It is in your best interest to be a specific as possible with the wedding coordinator and to ask lots of questions during your meeting i.e. the portion sizes the timing of the courses EXACTLY how you want the cake to look. Another warning would be more for your guests. This isn't the sort of place that has 'diet coke' and 'ranch dressing' so they shouldn't expect that. It's more of a 'honey cola' and 'hazelnut vinaigrette' kind of place.

It was whimsical and romantic and the food is amazing.;You can be pushed off till the last minute with them because they have so many weddings there. Also the chef is REALLY picky about when he wants to start cooking the food which could have people sitting around and waiting.
