Its been a few months since the party and people are still talking about it! Thank you everyone for making my 45th Gatsbys Party Amazing! We decided to use the venue for the evening, started at 6pm and added the taquero option, it was fabulous! Gorgeous and always very well taken care by coordinator Omar. My cousin Miguel took photos, cousin Zeli decorated my candy table, Liz, Gris, and Marie helped with my flowers! Everything was the way I wanted it. Even had the best photo with a Viejitos car! Made amazing memories! Thank you!

First, Id like to say that I booked this venue in 2019 for a wedding in 2022.We worked with Omar for the past few years & he has made it such a smooth & stress-free process! He is the most professional & patient coordinator - he helped me stay calm throughout the pandemic roller-coaster.We live in North Carolina & wanted to be able to have as many things available via a venue as possible. The Whitehouse was perfect for this!!!I will update this review after the wedding to include pictures & our opinion for services on the day of.

Who would have known what was inside this big white house. Great for a variety of venues. Much more space than you think inside this place. Very expensive. Too expensive for beach and ball if u ask me.

Came here for anniversary diner. Food was nothing special, waiter was checked out. Second floor tables view is ruined by all the local business signs. It takes away from the place which is quite nice.Never coming back

I pretty much went through and emailed every single venue in Orange County. I was having your super typical Asian wedding, which meant I was going to need a high capacity venue. White House Event Center was pretty much the only venue that could accommodate my amount of guests and didnt cost an obnoxious amount of money.When we met with Mimi, I found that WHEC was going to be perfect. They had packages that included their in-house catering, but also had some where I would be able to bring in my own for the type of cuisine my family and guests would expect. We were able to bring in our own alcohol, with no corkage fee. The upstairs bridal suite was amazing, it was extremely spacious and comfortable.Throughout the whole process, Mimi was beyond accommodating of my requests in regards to certain traditions we had. We got married this past March and I had a 6-month engagement, meaning there was very little time to pull everything together. Mimi was incredibly helpful and communicated with me every step of the way to ensure everything went smoothly. She was also incredibly easy to reach, I sometimes would forget that I shouldnt text her so late at night when I had random questions.When it came to the day of, I had Adriana as my day-of coordinator and she was awesome. With the help of her and Mimi, the day (more or less) went by incredibly smoothly. I was extremely impressed with all the hard work they put in that day. I made all of my own decorations and floral, meaning Mimi and Adriana had to help put everything together to bring my vision to reality.I do have a similar complaint as others in regards to the location of the venue, it is located hidden away behind Adventure City. This make parking a little difficult when arriving early for set up, etc. I heard from several guests that finding the location was difficult since the sign for it isnt readily apparent, most people only notice Adventure City.Overall, everything went well and Im pleased with how everything turned out and everything Mimi and Adriana did for us to make the day as amazing as possible.

The first thing on our to-do list was to look for the perfect venue. We were looking for a place of an elegant feel, modern style, cost-effective, and can handle a large Asian family! Our first visit at The White House Banquet, we thought it was going to be way over our budget. Mimi gave us a tour and gave us a breakdown of costs. Mimi was always helpful especially with all the millions and repetitive questions I had. She worked with us patiently and reminded us of the costs. Communication is also another important factor. The venue and all other vendors I hired were all on the same page and they made sure to communicate with one another in advance and day of. Some cons that I know I cannot change but just like to put it out there... if you have Asian style wedding, you cannot leave your Hennessy bottle on the table, but that wasnt a deal-breaker because Mimi recommended giving my dad his own alcohol server that carried shots and follows him around so it all worked out! Perhaps only from my perspective and I wasnt able to control what happens on the day of the wedding but I felt like the day of coordinator was not entirely useful. I met my day of coordinator once or twice prior with short conversations. I felt if she was more involved along the way, it would have been better. What I love about the venue is that the upstairs family area. There was a changing room for the bride and groom separately, lounge chairs and tables for family members and the private ambiance away from the crazy wedding downstairs. The one thing that I was uncomfortable with was the security guard. He was supposed to prevent strangers from going upstairs because we have personal items there but it seemed like he was letting anyone in. As for the garden area, I didnt get to enjoy it as much but I saw the pictures and it was so lovely especially at night. My wedding included the main house, garden and dining hall with 300 guests, 30 tables, with 2 tables as a backup. I had the sweetheart table and the crystal dance floor. We were hesitant about adding the dance floor to the package but it was the best decision made! Everyone loved it! I love the idea of BYOB, it definitely gave more control of your guest intake of alcohol. Overall, I want to thank you Mimi and all staff for all their efforts in making this happen. We cannot be happier with the outcome and have a lot of memories to share with our friends and family.Love,Daro and Van

This place is beautiful! My two cousins had their quinceaneras here, about 6 years apart and both times were amazing. The white house serves as an entrance point for the guest. Upstairs are some private rooms for the special guest to get ready. The main room has a shower and restroom and the second room serves as a extra changing room. Both spacious. They have an outdoor area were they set up for the ceremony and the reception takes place in a venue across the outdoor area. The out door area is simply beautiful. The reception venue is just as beautifully decorated as the rest of the place. The only thing I would like to point out is that the venue is shaped rectangular. Not necessarily a bad thing, but just something to definitely be aware of.

Shocked by how cute of a venue this is. A friends wedding was here and it was quite lovely. Food was good. Servers were very efficient. If you are looking for a venue for your wedding, this is the place to be.

My fianceé (now wife) and I were scouting for the perfect venue. We wanted something that was extraordinary, beautiful and spacious. We looked all over Los Angeles and Orange County, some places were nice but were missing some key amenities like parking and food. Low and behold we found out about The White House Event Center. This elegant venue has everything you could imagine! Let me please start with the people that make this place so special. Jovan and Mimi are outstanding and remarkable individuals who cater to your wedding needs. They treated us like we were their first and only clients and loved their honesty and hospitality. They guided us with professionalism and were genuine, they showed us all the different options and locked in our wedding date and price. Keep in mind we were 2 years out, they were flexible with payment plans and each time we came in to make our payment they always asked if we needed anything or had concerns. Mimi went above and beyond to make sure our wedding photo booth was perfect by crafting a unique design for us by using our wedding invitation card as a design.The Venue: The White House has a beautiful reception area on the 1st floor that allows guests to relax, have refreshments from their excellent in-house bartender and delicious hors d’oeuvres. It’s lovely and open and allows guests to find a nice space to mingle and take photos. The 2nd floor is open and elegant. This area allows both the bride and groom and their respected parties to get ready before the ceremony. We had at least 20 people upstairs including hair, make up and catering and we didn’t feel confined or limited. I would recommend booking the early access, this allows you more time to get ready without feeling rushed. I believe we arrived at 9:00AM and their staff (Aleyda & Guillermo) were already there ready to help us with our alcohol and decorations for the evening.The Ceremony: We had paid extra for the Day of Event Coordinator - Omar, is fantastic at keeping everyone aligned as well as attending to our needs. He consistently checked up on us and our wedding party and made sure that we were seated and had dinner served to us first. He made sure everything ran smoothly as well as timing for when the bride and groom would walk down the aisle. If you don’t have a Day of Event coordinator or are hesitant on hiring one, I would highly recommend their service. You’ve already invested your time, money and energy. You deserve to enjoy your beautiful day without issues and added stress.The Reception: Absolutely stunning, When you first walk in you’re greeted by beautiful flowers that were sourced and designed by their in-house florists. We had the center setup as the dance floor and it was plenty of space to have everyone dancing. Our wedding had a total of 120 guests and everyone enjoyed their time and commented on how gorgeous the reception was. Their lighting system is setup so that it can match the theme of the evening as well as music.The Food: My favorite part was being able to sample all the delicious foods and selecting them with my wife before the wedding. All their selections are exquisite and gourmet, there is something for everyone. My guests were treated with unlimited and delicious food the Nguyen way of course.Thank you again to: Mimi, Jovan, Omar, Aleyda & Guillermo - and staff.An amazing and unforgettable moment, We will forever remember this day and everything The White House Event Center did for us.

We had our wedding there last night 3/8/19. And it was completely amazing. The staff made sure we took care of everything before our event. We had a couple of little hiccups with other vendors, but the staff at the venue took care of things and kept it moving. We needed stuff moved and Omar took care of it.
