Malibou Lake Mountain Club is surrounded by sycamore and oak trees, stunning rocky mountains, and a lovely lake. The combination of these elements inspires a romantic and serene ambience perfect for any wedding day in Southern California. It’s rare to find a venue overlooking a lake, so I would definitely consider Malibou Lake Mountain Club if you want gorgeous wedding portraits with a lake as the perfect backdrop.

Our live.love.create team has planned two gorgeous weddings here at Malibou Lake Mountain Club for Jane & James and Julie & John.

5. Calamigos Ranch in Malibu

Another gorgeous outdoor wedding venue in Southern California is Calamigos Ranch in Malibu. The twinkling lights hanging beautifully from the trees will transport you and your life long partner to a real life fairytale. Being surrounded by the beauty of nature can only inspire a calming and romantic ambience that will make this day all the more special. The wooded cabins and rustic flooring compliment the trees perfectly, providing a magnificent backdrop for all those memorable wedding pictures.
