Pelican Hill

The Resort at Pelican Hill offers a distinctive setting for weddings, combining sweeping coastal views with architecture inspired by the Italian Renaissance. Perched above the Pacific in Newport Coast, the venue features grand rotundas, arched colonnades, and expansive terraces that create a sense of scale and elegance rarely found in Southern California venues. The warm stone tones and symmetrical design photograph beautifully in both natural light and dramatic sunset conditions, while the ocean backdrop adds depth and atmosphere to portraits and ceremony scenes. The combination of refined architecture and panoramic coastal scenery gives Pelican Hill a timeless, cinematic quality that works equally well for intimate celebrations and large, luxurious events.
