The Resort at Pelican Hill is just south of Newport Beach, and is a magnificent blend of 16th century Palladian architecture and the California coast. From the moment of arrival, you and your guests will experience a place that feels much further away than it really is. Pelican Hill boasts panoramic ocean views, and lush Mediterranean landscaping. Mar Vista is the part of the resort that houses the wedding venues, and is designed to offer total privacy. The separate entrance and dedicated staff will ensure complete exclusivity. The century-old olive trees, rows of lavender and 180-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, will captivate your guests upon their arrival. The majesty of the natural surroundings and the gentle ocean breeze will only serve to enhance the loving atmosphere. Walk down the oval, perfectly manicured, Event Lawn to the iconic Italian rotunda. There you will exchange vows, perched 300 feet above the ocean. Guests can enjoy cocktails on an outdoor terrace and then move the celebration inside. The opulent Mar Vista ballroom features an astounding chandelier and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows.
