We recently worked with Sarah to host my sister in law's wedding at Overlook Hall! The wedding happened to fall during not only a cold spell in Catalina, but they were experiencing a rainy season. In other words, not what you come to Catalina for, from NC! However - Sarah was always available to lend advice, accept packages, arrange back up rain plans, and help execute a flawless flip from ceremony to reception. She recommended a dream team from Zest Catering to Bloom Floral (who sadly performed their last wedding with us), ... read more

Just got back from my honeymoon and taking a moment to relive the most amazing day on Catalina. I have to say, I could not have been more impressed with this venue! The manager Anna was such a delight to work with, so helpful and responsive always. She truly went above and beyond to make sure every wedding detail was perfect. The hall itself is just gorgeous, and nothing else on the island provided the historic feel I wanted like Overlook. Putting this out there for future brides because I truly couldn’t have been happier wi... read more

My wedding at Overlook Hall this past summer was absolutely perfect! The venue and location is gorgeous! We had both our wedding and reception at the hall. The venue has gorgeous wood floors, beautiful opening windows, wood beam stunning ceiling, and the patio offers beautiful views of the ocean. Anna Dira was wonderful! She is professional, friendly and a pleasure to work with, always got back to me quickly, was so helpful in suggestions and referrals to vendors, and had attention to detail making sure everything was perfec... read more
