Hippest venue in Orange County!

OCMA was an amazing wedding venue to work at. Been in the industry for a number of years, we've DJ'd venues all across California but found OCMA to our favorite one yet. The staff was wonderful to work with and the acoustic sound that this venue was able to produce was astounding. Our couple had the night of their lives here. Definitely OC's hippest new wedding venue right now and a hidden gem that probably won't be hidden much longer.

OCMA is a BEAUTIFUL venue and they were great to work with.
The indoor/outdoor space is perfect for enjoying the California weather and our guests were so thrilled to have the chance to explore the galleries after-hours.

We knew that we did not want a hotel or a country club to have our wedding at. After thinking outside of the box and searching for the perfect event venue, we found the Orang County Museum of Art. The venue is contemporary and like a blank canvas to design exactly what you want to keep your event non traditional. We loved that we got to take over the entire Museum and had a terrific wedding. The services from the staff were very professional and made our event an truly unforgettable experience. We are now members and frequently go back to the museum to enjoy the new art and remember our wonderful memories that we had there.
