When considering the cost of a wedding at Lombardi House, it’s important to look beyond the price tag and into the value it delivers. Built in 1904, this fully restored Victorian-style farmhouse surrounded by mature fruit trees and gardens offers a rare combination of historical charm and modern convenience in the heart of Hollywood. With over 7,000 square feet of bright, spacious interiors and more than 10,000 square feet of outdoor event space, the property provides incredible flexibility for weddings of all sizes and styles, from intimate garden ceremonies to full-scale weekend celebrations. The venue rental includes exclusive access to the gated estate, which ensures total privacy and security throughout your event.
Included in your booking are not just the ceremony and reception spaces, but also beautifully maintained gardens, event-ready Lombardi house lawns, and open-air areas perfect for al fresco dining, cocktail parties, or even outdoor movie nights. On-site accommodations with up to 28 guest capacity are another cost-saving feature, allowing you to host friends and family under one roof while eliminating the need for off-site lodging and transportation. Its central location near Franklin Village means guests are also within walking distance to Hollywood studios, charming restaurants, shops, and attractions, making it a destination and venue in one.
