We loved our wedding at the Nixon Library. Everything was as lovely as we imagined it and met all of our expectations. We are very happy about our decision to have our wedding there, and it was a pleasure working with the Library staff. The gardens and ceremony space are beautiful, especially the reflecting pool. The reception room is romantic and classic with fireplaces and mantles, bright chandeliers, and gold curtains. There is a very warm and intimate feeling to the room, which adds to the atmosphere of the happy occasion. The price of the venue was very reasonable, and finding a similar venue at the same price would be very difficult. We really recommend Nixon Library as a wedding venue and hope you love it as much as we did.

Elegant, Exquisite and Everything you need for a wedding! If you are looking for a venue that will leave an impression on your guests, you need to check out the Richard Nixon Library. The site is beautiful and the staff was extremely helpful and easy to work with. In addition, the East Room provides a classic and timeless setting that will make your photos and your day memorable. I almost overlooked this venue but am so happy that I decided on this location. I couldn't have asked for a better venue to hold the most important day of my life. Thank you to Laura and the RNL staff to making my special day a dream come true.

The East room was an incredible place to host a classy, yet fun reception. The reflection pool and the beautiful surroundings enhanced our pictures. The special events coordinator took care of everything. Even allowed me to meet Julie Nixon Eisenhower and David Eisenhower who happened to be there when I was getting dressed.

The Nixon Library is GEORGEOUS!!! The staff was awesome, the grounds are spectacular, and the ballroom was magical. Forget the musty country club ballrooms with their old ugly carpet and worn out chairs that cost a fortune! Go with the Nixon library and your guests will be amazed.

Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!!!!! Jori, Nikki, Carrie, and the gang at the Nixon are wonderful, fantastic, and unsurpassed! When my parents first suggested The Nixon Library for their 50th Anniversary party, I thought it might be a cool place to have it. However, I had never been there before and didn't know what to expect. Now that our event is over, I cannot express how BRILLIANT my parents' suggestion was, and how AMAZING Jori and the team were. Seriously -- I cannot imagine how anyone, at any venue, could make someone feel as special as Jori and her team made us feel. They cared as much as we did about every single detail, and Jori went out of her way to calm me down on the MANY occasions during which I was freaking out. She even called me after the event to make sure that we were happy and that everyone had an amazing time. Of course, everyone did. As for the venue itself, it is gorgeous. Many of our guests walked around the grounds and toured the property after our event (we did a daytime brunch), and people are still emailing me to tell me how beautiful the venue was. I simply cannot put into words how happy I was with Jori and everyone else at The Nixon Library. Thanks for making such an important day as perfect as it possibly could have been.

The management, staff and everyone at the Nixon were absolutely superb. I can't rave enough about how easy they made this for us, how smoothly everything went, how accommodating they all were. It was just a pure joy and pleasure to work with the folks at the Nixon. This is without a doubt one of the best venues in So Cal., and one of the best group of staff, we could have ever hoped for. I highly recommend this venue for any event you may plan. They were simply terrific.

My husband and I didn't even consider The Richard Nixon Library thinking that it was out of our price range. We spoke to some friends and they recommended checking into it anyways and it turned out to be just the venue for us. It's beautiful, inside and out. The East room has an elegance to it and you can definitely add your characteristics to it. Laura was awesome to work with! She was our main point of contact from the beginning and she answered all of our questions promptly. She assisted with every request and handled all of our concerns. We didn't feel rushed and she didn't make us feel like we were inconveniencing her. It truly made the whole process more enjoyable and eased my jitters! At the very least, check out the Nixon..it may be it for you...

The Richard Nixon Library was such an amazing place to have our wedding. I brought my husband to a few places when I was deciding what venue to select. He was unimpressed by the other locations I was contemplating. However, immediately upon seeing the Nixon Library's East Room he knew our wedding would have to be there. I loved the absolute beauty of the room - with its amazingly detailed white walls and gigantic windows, fireplaces and chandeliers. The ballroom was so gorgeous with nothing in it. This made decorating so much easier for me. I didn't have to spend as much on flowers or other details as I was thinking I would have to do with an ugly golf course banquet room. Seriously, it was so very easy to have my wedding at the Nixon Library. The staff - including Laura and Jori - were so helpful and nice. I seriously loved every minute of my wedding at the Nixon Library.

The Nixon Library was the perfect wedding and reception venue. The grounds provided numerous places to take gorgeous pictures, the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating, and it is priced competitively with other locations. The first time we visited, we knew it was the place where we would become husband and wife! If you are curious about the Nixon Library, visit one of their (free) open house events! It is such an amazing and unique location; you will not be disappointed!

The Nixon Library is the most beautiful venue. Our guests were so wowed by the facilities and grounds. The team of people who work there are so friendly and helpful-Jori, Laura, Carrie. At first, I was miffed about the venue fee, until I realized that the "free venue fee" at hotels and golf courses are a sham because they require a minimum expenditure for food and non-alcoholic beverages. Trust me, once you calculte it all out, the overall cost is actually less than most hotels and golf courses. We went with Jason's Catering and we were not disappointed. Many of our guests said that it was the best food that they had ever had at a wedding. The venue fee includes admission to the library for your guests the day of the wedding and chivari chairs for your reception. It's the perfect venue, unique and traditional all at the same time.

This was literally the best venue for our wedding. I can't tell you how accommodating the staff was. Lauren, Jori, and everybody on the Nixon wedding team, is just a joy to work with. They went very out of their way to make sure every need was met, with zero hassle for me and my now husband. The venue is absolutely gorgeous--and the pricing on everything was extremely reasonable. I never write reviews and I'm kind of picky because I'm a perfectionist--so this review coming from me really means I'm elated with the service from the nixon bridal team. A zillion thanks to you!!!

We had our ceremony and reception at the Richard Nixon Library and it was incredibly gorgeous. It was the first venue my husband and I looked at, and after looking at twenty-plus more, we knew the Nixon was where we wanted it to be. The staff is always professional and extremely helpful answering any questions, emails or phone calls I had over the course of our engagement. The day of the wedding the grounds looked immaculate and there were several staff members on hand to help with any potential problems. I would highly recommend The Nixon Library as an wedding venue. Since our wedding, every single one of our guests has complimented me on choosing such a beautiful venue. My husband and I could not be any happier that we had our wedding at the Nixon.

The Richard Nixon Library is an incredibly beautiful location for a ceremony and reception. We were married in the rose garden and our pictures are gorgeous! It was such a peaceful setting for our ceremony. Likewise, the East Room was such an elegant reception location. My husband and I swing dance and were concerned about the quality of the dance floor. The dance floor was amazing and our guests were enthralled by its beauty. We didn't need to spend much money on flowers or decor because the gardens and East Room are beautiful in their own right (the East Room's chandeliers are stunning!). You cannot go wrong with the staff at the Nixon Library. Laura Machin was incredibly organized, friendly and informative. We did not use a wedding planner, so we really relied on the expertise of the Nixon Library staff. There were no glitches and they were always in communication with us. Planning a wedding with the Nixon was a cake walk! They were also willing to work/communicate with all of our vendors so as to make sure everyone was on the same page. Our guests raved about the Library - I'd recommend this venue to anyone!

The Nixon Library was the perfect location for us!! The garden is so beautiful for our ceremony & the ballroom went above and beyond anything I could have wanted for a reception area. The staff made sure everything was perfect. Im so happy that we were able to have our wedding there.

The Richard Nixon Library was my dream venue. It was so beautiful with its lush gardens and beautiful flowers. The staff was very friendly and always got back to me when I had a question. Nicki with the Nixon made sure things were in order and everything was perfect. My favorite part is of course the ballroom. It was the PERFECT setting for our reception. I am truly satisfied with everything the Nixon had to offer.

We were married at the Nixon Library last month and it was absolutely the best decision I made! My wedding was more than I expected in life! It is so unique to have a wedding at a presidential library and the ballroom, which is replica of the East Room at the White House is Unbelievable!! I felt like Jackie Kennedy hosting a very beautiful reception. People to this day tell me our wedding was the best they have been too. Everything was beautiful! And all the pictures came out amazing! As a bonus, if you enjoy American history like we do, this is a place to pick. The price is a little high but it was so worth it.

We had both our ceremony and reception at the library. The ceremony site is a gorgeous rose garden. The East Room, where the reception is held, is a magnificent ball room with incredible chandeliers and wood floors. Gold chivari chairs are included in the package as well. We could not have been happier than at the library! We highly recommend this venue!
