Yes. Hangar 21 has an outdoor ceremony terrace, and the reception unfolds in the main event hall, with 20-foot ceilings, iron beams and floor-to-ceiling rolling glass doors that can be flung open to the terrace and tarmac deck. As night falls, glowing lanterns and the runway lights of Fullerton Airport set the mood.

Some, yes. Jay's Catering owns and operates Hangar 21 and is the exclusive caterer, and all alcohol must come through Jay's and be served by its licensed bartenders. For specific cultural dishes, ask whether Jay's works with a partner who can help. You'll choose a planner from the venue's Planner Partners list, and extra rentals like lounge furniture come from its Rental Partners. Most other vendors are up to you, though florists must be licensed and approved. Your own cake is welcome for a $3 per person cutting fee, and approved outside desserts or a self-contained food truck are $2 per person.

Because Hangar 21 sits on an active airport, you can party until midnight, with a live band or amplified music anywhere in the venue (though the team may ask for lower volume at any time). Standard event time is 5.5 hours, and the longest option is a six-hour reception plus an optional half-hour on-site ceremony. Setup begins three hours before your start time.

Hangar 21 has a private bridal suite that opens three hours before your scheduled event start time, at the same time vendors arrive for setup. By then, tables and chairs are already in place and linens are on the guest tables, so you can focus on getting ready.

Yes! Hangar 21 is right at Fullerton Airport, so you can plan a dramatic helicopter grand entrance or exit, and even offer helicopter flights to your guests. Both are optional add-ons, so ask the team about availability and pricing for your date.
