Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • Nestled within Fountain Valley's scenic Mile Square Park, this lovely club and event center has earned its reputation as a favorite setting for both golf outings and wedding celebrations. The experienced events team love helping couples craft a day that matches their personal style, budget, and desires; affordable rental fees and truly all-inclusive packages (photographer, florals, and DJ, oh my!) keep the stress low and the value sky-high.
  • Exchange vows in a lovely private courtyard beneath a white arbor, with your guests looking on from a plush lawn. A pretty fence behind the site creates a sense of intimacy, with manicured hedges, fragrant white roses, and tall trees adding a natural touch. After the "I do"s, explore the emerald greens, sparkling water features, and greenery-lined paths with your photographer, who is sure to love the beautiful surroundings.
  • Walls of windows in the elegant reception hall bring the outside in and flood the space with light. Vintage-inspired chandeliers and gauzy drapery are on hand to adjust the ambiance to your preference, with a crisp white color scheme that leaves plenty of room for your color scheme and design. An adjacent covered patio is a lovely spot for al fresco cocktail hours or setting up cozy lounge vignettes that encourage mingling.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

You'll also pay for your own licensed caterer, the in-house bar, a $250 bartender fee per 5 hours, and a 20% service charge. Want it all in one? The all-inclusive package bundles catering, cake, a DJ, a photographer and florals.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at David L. Baker Golf Club, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, David L. Baker Golf Club hosts both, so your guests can stay put. You'll say your vows at the outdoor ceremony site, a private courtyard with a white arbor and a lawn surrounded by green views and water features. Then everyone heads into the ballroom for dinner and dancing, with walls of windows, a dance floor and seating for up to 180 guests. A covered patio next to the ballroom and dedicated cocktail hour spaces give guests room to mingle in between.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to David L. Baker Golf Club or do we have to use yours?

Yes, you can bring the caterer you love to David L. Baker Golf Club, as long as they're licensed. Alcohol is the exception: all drinks are provided and served by the in-house bar, with bar packages to choose from and a $250 bartender fee for every 5 hours. Need help building your team? The events team shares vendor recommendations and will put together a custom floor plan with you.

What should we realistically expect to spend on a wedding at David L. Baker Golf Club, and is there a minimum?

At David L. Baker Golf Club in Fountain Valley, the rental is $1,500 Monday–Thursday, $2,000 on Fridays and Sundays, and $2,500 on Saturdays, so your day of the week is the biggest lever. Add $1,500 if you're holding your ceremony on site. Since you bring your own licensed caterer, food costs are up to you; bar packages are in-house, with a $250 bartender fee per 5 hours and a 20% service charge. If you'd rather have one number, the all-inclusive package starts at $21,900 for up to 100 guests and covers a catered meal, a custom wedding cake, a bartender with two drinks per person, plates and tableware, month-of planning, day-of coordination, a DJ, a photographer and florals.

How long do we get at David L. Baker Golf Club, and when does the music have to stop?

If you're also having your ceremony on site, the ceremony fee includes 1 hour at the ceremony site and 1 hour of setup. Amplified music is allowed indoors and outdoors, with some restrictions, and the venue's event availability runs 6am–1am, so ask the events team which start time works best for the timeline you have in mind.

What makes David L. Baker Golf Club different from the other venues near it?

David L. Baker Golf Club lets you bring your own licensed caterer, so your food budget stays in your hands. It sits in Fountain Valley's Mile Square Park, so your ceremony courtyard and lawn come with greens, water features and greenery-lined paths, and your reception moves inside to a ballroom for up to 180 guests. Prefer not to coordinate it all? The all-inclusive package from $21,900 for up to 100 guests includes month-of planning and day-of coordination. Weekday rentals start at $1,500, and complimentary self-parking sits right next to the clubhouse.

Can we tour David L. Baker Golf Club, and what should we ask while we're there?

Yes, a venue tour is the first step at David L. Baker Golf Club: after you've toured, a signed contract and an initial 25% deposit secure your date. While you're there, walk the outdoor ceremony courtyard and lawn, the ballroom and its dance floor, and the cocktail hour spaces, and talk through a custom floor plan with the events team. It's also a good time to ask about bar packages, since all alcohol is served in-house, and to pick up their vendor recommendations.
