Villa Loriana is a Central Coast, CA hidden gem.
A private estate wedding venue blending old-world Italy with modern luxury to create an unforgettable fairytale experience.
Located midway between Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Villa Loriana is an ideal California destination for your wedding weekend. Nestled near the ocean among vineyards and groves of oak trees, the estate feels private but is just minutes from Pismo Beach, Edna Valley and downtown San Luis Obispo. Here, Mediterranean architecture and nature come together to create a timeless experience.

We are proud to be one of the few venues in the area that can host 300 person events!
Your wedding weekend experience includes a two or three-night stay for up to 18 guests. Accommodations include our three luxury villa suites and our cottage. The suites have been mindfully designed with multiple bedrooms and kitchenettes in each. There is also a large shared kitchen equipped with a full range and dishwasher.
We sought out input from other vendors and kept events at the top-of-mind when designing the Villa and venue. The result is a gorgeous space that offers thoughtful elements to make operations and logistics as seamless as possible.
The Catering Patio and Butler’s Pantry provide covered & lit workspaces for the catering team and are furnished with refrigeration, sinks, trash facilities, prep tables, and a staff restroom. The patio is large enough to accommodate most catering vehicles. Trash service is provided on-site, and we do not require trash to be removed from our facility by catering staff.
Our lush green lawns, accented by the indigenous oaks, provide a beautiful backdrop for any wedding. These beautiful lawns include a gaming area complete with a full sized bocce court and horseshoe pits.
The perfect space to get ready, the Baldini Suite has been thoughtfully designed with full-length mirrors, hair & make-up chairs, a refrigerator & coffee nook, two bedrooms, and a luxurious bathroom. Enjoy breakfast in the dining area and full kitchen before you indulge in your pre-event pampering!
Gather your wedding party and relax and unwind
pre-event in the Cottage. Couches, a refrigerator, outdoor
picnic and lounge area with firepit, and close access to the
gaming area make for the perfect space to spend time before your big day!
Our beautifully designed restrooms are strategically located in several areas throughout the villa. In addition, we have a restroom designated for your staff in the caterers’ quarters.
Available for rent, we have an inventory featuring cross-back chairs with ivory cushions, farmhouse style tables, a variety of round tables, banquet tables, and more!
