Grass Room DTLA Wedding | Colorful, Tropical, and Fun

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one.

There’s something about Grass Room in DTLA that just feels alive. Between the soaring skylights, layers of plants, eclectic textures, and that unforgettable whale mural, the venue is one of Los Angeles’ most vibrant places to host a wedding.

For Sarah + Dan, it was the perfect space to bring their vision of a colorful, tropical-lite, and fun wedding to life.

Grass Room isn’t your typical wedding venue, it’s a converted warehouse with walls of greenery, art deco tiling, and unexpected details tucked into every corner. Couples love it because it feels like a mix of urban DTLA grit and greenhouse magic.

The venue itself is already bursting with personality, and it’s a natural fit for couples who want their wedding to feel vibrant, relaxed, and unique to them.

Sarah + Dan described their wedding vibe as tropical-lite—a mix of lush florals by Little Branch, colorful details, and a playful energy that carried through every moment.

With planning by So Smitten Events, music from Second Song, makeup by Kelly Zhang, and catering by Fundamental, the day came together seamlessly.

Their first dance to “That’s How Strong My Love Is” by Otis Redding set the perfect tone—timeless, soulful, and full of heart.

Valentine DTLA Wedding | Fun, Lighthearted, Romantic Celebration

Located in the heart of the Arts District, Valentine DTLA is one of Los Angeles’ most unique wedding venues. With its natural greenery, dramatic architecture, and mix of historic and modern design, Valentine creates a space that feels both expansive and intimate at the same time.

For Jamie + Nick, Valentine was the perfect backdrop for their fun, lighthearted, and romantic wedding day.

Why Couples Love Valentine DTLA

Valentine is filled with character at every turn. The venue blends industrial textures, lush greenery, and stunning architectural details.

Jamie wore a gown from BB Bridal, while Nick kept it sharp and classic in The Black Tux. Together, they set the tone for a celebration that felt modern, stylish, and full of heart.

  • Florals: Little Branch

  • Coordinator: Emily Lynn

  • Music: Second Song

  • Catering: Woah Nelly

  • First Dance Song: “Look at Where We Are” by Hot Chip

The reception was as vibrant as it was meaningful, with a guest list of about 150 friends and family ready to hit the dance floor. Between the laughter, the food, and the disco ball glow, the atmosphere was pure joy.

The couple first met in 2017 on the dating app The League, and have been inseparable ever since. They share a love for cooking, exploring new cuisines, and recently adopted a pup named Bean—who quickly became the center of their world.

Their photos reflect everything they value most: candid moments, timeless portraits, and a celebration of love surrounded by the people they hold closest.

Valentine DTLA has become one of our favorite venues not just for its design and architecture, but for the way it lets love take center stage. From candid laughter to timeless portraits, it’s a space that feels endlessly inspiring.
