Women’s Twentieth Century Club

Love love love this place — rocking women and fabulous space– easy parking, clean — freshly painted — a great group of women

It meant so much to us to celebrate our wedding at a historically significant and beautiful venue only paces from the home we share in Eagle Rock. This club is a hidden gem, right on Colorado Blvd.
Roe was easy to coordinate with and was very clear about club policies and rules, making it easy to organize our wedding here. The on-​site manager, Daniel, is available to hire for extra set-​up, clean-​up and lighting work, which is a nice and convenient option for those who are DIYing their event, as we did. It may also be one of the best deals for wedding venues in all of Los Angeles! It also comes with lots of tables and chairs, which can save you hundreds in rental costs. And there are no «preferred vendors» that you have to work with — everything is up to you!
The club itself is not climate controlled, so think carefully about seasons before you book! We got married in late October and the cool breeze at night was perfect for cooling the place down for nighttime dancing.
Our guests loved the historic and romantic feeling of this space and we feel very lucky to have had our wedding here. Thank you!

Over the weekend, I bartended for a wedding here for Goose on the Rocks. I must say this venue was a great place to have a wedding. There was an outdoor patio and a dance floor inside. Perfect for having an outdoor/​indoor event. Daniel, the manager of this venue, was very friendly and helpful in assisting us with any complications or questions we had.

As good as it gets. We had our wedding there on Nov 1 this year and it was perfect. The venue itself is charming, spacious and well maintained… the historical value of the place cannot be overstated. The landscaping and surrounding area are also well cared for and it is in a safe neighborhood that’s easily accessible by freeways. We thought parking on the day of the event might be an issue, but it worked and as far as I know no blisters were formed on the way to or from cars.
As for the people that own and operate the venue… WOW. They are such gracious and patient people.
Daniel is the All Star Employee of the Year. He lives and works on the grounds of the Women’s Club and is available for hire on the day of event. He is a GEM and a real professional. We hired him to do the Set-​Up, Clean-​Up, and Lighting for our wedding. He did an outstanding job and really made life easy on us. I recommend getting his contact information soon into the agreement and discussing what you want early into the game. Daniel is really a jack of all trades and can probably be a one stop shop for many services, so minimizing your headache early on is a plus. I felt there was a real advantage to having someone who knows the venue so well be in charge of the set up, he has lots of suggestions… so you’ll have choices. Clean up he made a breeze: we had a day of coordinator and two bartenders kind of keeping things tidy through the night but when 11 came around, Daniel assured us that all we had to do was leave. Boy did that make things easy. The lighting was spectacular and he was very attentive to our preferences, I happened not to have many so I was delighted and surprised when the dancing part of the night started, the lights went dim, and suddenly there was a bit of a club vibe. He’s there the entire night, but blends in (a couple of my single friends noticed him) and in many ways its like having a security blanket and an extra set of hands to help during the whole event. He really cares about doing a job well done and that he did. My favorite Daniel moment was when I arrived to the venue and he was raking the leaves out of the lawn where the ceremony was to be. I assured him it wasn’t necessary and that I kind of liked them for a fall wedding. He goes, «Want me to rake them into the procession aisle?» Yes Please. Boom. Done.
Ro is a member of the Women’s Club and took office as the contact person in June. Anne had been the contact person when we booked the venue. The position changes every 2 years and it was a completely seamless transition. They were both so kind and responded to my questions within hours to 24 hours via email or phone. My biggest demand was needing to see the venue multiple times and each time one of them was able to work with me. The venue is not open unattended, so you do have to schedule an appointment. I think between and Anne and Ro, I went 5 times. I did have to work around their schedules, which I was more than happy to do… but Bridezilla Beware. I loved that they’re proud of their club and want to share it with you for your special occasion. They’re not their to sell it on you and they’re not pushy. Ro’s son was married there. It really feels like a cozy family affair, not a wedding industry driven venue… It’s exactly what we wanted. We saved money using this venue and got to throw the wedding we wanted to have. They don’t make you work with vendors, they DO allow food trucks, and they can make suggestions if you ask :)
I LOVE that we had our wedding here it was a really special day at a very special venue.

I had my wedding here and the venue was fantastic. Anne was very easy and pleasant to work with and Daniel, the groundskeeper, provides set up, break down, and lighting services at a very reasonable rate. The space is gorgeous, a lovely, old Craftsman with a breezy backyard, large catering kitchen, three bathrooms, stone fireplace, old time stage — just so much character to work with for staging a wedding. We really, really loved it.

We rented the club for our daughter’s college graduation and our son’s high school graduation in June 2014. We had 160 guests and plenty of space for more. I highly recommend this place for any event. Anne who is in charge of rentals is very helpful and she responds right away. They also have Daniele who can help you set up, clean up, decorate, etc for a very reasonable fee. I highly recommend hiring him. My guests were all surprised that this place exist in Eagle Rock. It is a hidden gem.

Gorgeous and very spacious venue! The Women’s Twentieth Century Club is a hidden gem, local secret and a great place to have your event!
The Wendy Walk Salsa Night charity event was held at the Women’s Twentieth Century Club and the venue was the absolute best place for our event. It’s a great space with a stage, dance hall, lounge area, back patio and really nice lawn for outdoor seating.
Anne Wolf, one of the people in charge, was a pleasure to work with. And I can’t say enough good things about the grounds supervisor, Daniel Lopez. Daniel went above and beyond to ensure that our charity event was a success. He was super knowledgeable with a great eye for making events look great with lighting and interior decorating. In short, Daniel was exceptional!

My husband and I hosted our wedding shower here in June of 2013. I had been working with Anne for almost a year when booking this place. When we were looking for a venue, I wanted a place that was low key and had space for 150 people– We have LOTS of family. I am so lucky to have stumbled upon this gem. From the outside, it doesn’t look like much. When you enter, it was PERFECT. Lots of space, 3 bathrooms to accomodate all the guests, a huge kitchen where we were able to keep all the food and drinks. They also have their own tables and chairs which were so convenient! Anne was such a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. She even checked in on us towards the end to make sure everything was ok.
A couple of days before our shower, we started to work with Daniel. He is a God-​sent. He offered to do the entire set up for us as well as the lighting for us for a reasonable fee. He even put up all my banners, set up my champagne bar and dessert table. It was worth EVERY penny. We were able to enjoy our guests and everything because Daniel was there to take care of us. Our shower, we felt, was amazing and unforgettable. Daniel helped make it happen!
If I ever have the opportunity to host another event at this venue, I would take the chance in a heart beat!

We got married here last June 2013– It was everything we had hoped for. Homey, not too over the top and really a low key place. Anne and Daniel were super easy to work with and were very helpful and responsive every step of the way. Daniel, the groudskeeper and caretaker really went out of his way. I highly recommend using his services (as an add on for lighting and set up) because he really knows his way around the property and will take the extra step to make sure that everything goes well.

We got married at the Women’s Club on May 18^th 2013. It was the IDEAL venue for our wedding!
First, it was just the right size. The max number of guests is 160. We ended up with about 130, although at one point we thought we would max out. Our guests comfortably fit in the space, and there was still ample room for dancing. The cost is also VERY reasonable! Much much less than any other venue we looked at.
Second, the space itself is simply beautiful! It’s an old craftsman style house that was built in 1914. I think it has even been declared a historic site. The suffragettes of that era built the house, and we loved that it was steeped in history. There is a gorgeous lawn in the back where we got married. We set up a chuppah there, and I made a burlap aisle runner. The venue does have plastic chairs that you can use for free, but we rented nicer white wooden ones. The space was glowing at 4:30 in the afternoon. it was just beautiful. After the ceremony we had a cocktail hour, and then everyone moved inside for the dinner and reception. The venue provided us with the tables, which was nice so that we didn’t have to rent them. They are long 8 ft. banquet style tables. (If you want round tables, you have to rent.) We served our guests family style, which worked very well.
This is definitely a no bells or whistles kind of place. Other than the long tables, you basically have to bring everything in yourself. It’s like a blank canvas that you can paint whatever you want on, which is what we liked. But couples that prefer a venue that is all inclusive should look elsewhere. For us, it was perfect. The price was in our budget, and we were able to make it «our own» with lighting, decorations, flowers, a chuppah, etc. But again, we had to do all of that ourselves and through additional vendors. It’s the perfect place for brides and couples who desire that blank canvas on which to create their special day.
The folks who run the place are very professional, and also very accessible and friendly. Anne was our contact, and she permitted us numerous walk-through’s. She was so sweet, and genuinely seemed to care about us. She accommodated our requests to the best of her ability. The ONLY thing, out of the whole experience, that was a disappointment was the piano. They have 2 onsite — a beautiful grand piano that resides up on a stage, and an old out-​of-​tune upright that resides in the main hall. We initially were told that we would have use of the pianos. So I hired a pianist to play before and during the ceremony outside. But then I found out that we were not permitted to move the piano. So we had to borrow an electronic keyboard. It turned out to be OK, but was frustrating at the time.
The caretaker, Daniel, was very helpful. He helped carry heavy boxes and made himself available numerous times for us to deliver all our decorative items. He does offer to set up tables and chairs and tear them down at the end of the night, but the fee was more than we wanted to spend. So we ended up recruiting some of our friends to help us do it. But it’s nice to know that there is someone onsite to do that, if you desire (and are willing to pay).
All in all, we were delighted with the Women’s Club! The space is beautiful and has a very rustic and organic feel. The staff is a delight to work with. The price is very reasonable. It was the perfect space for our rustic shabby-​chic style wedding! I would highly recommend it to any bride or couple looking for that blank canvas on which to paint their perfect day.

We got married here in May 2013.
This is not about the big, high-​end wedding location. This is about the more low-​key home-​style wedding.
We had about 90 people at our wedding, although I think this place could handle 120 – 140 people.
The Club has a beautiful exterior. If you love the old Craftsman homes, this is a giant version of that. There is a great yard area and patio that was perfect for our ceremony and drinks/​appetizers right after.
The inside is great, but the building was built in 1903 so you have to be aware of some things. For example, there is no a/​c. When we were setting up on Friday inside the building, we were all sweating like crazy. Luckily, our wedding day weather could not have been more perfect (all the more so since it was 90 degrees the day before and it rained the day after).
There is a elevated stage where our DJ set up, so that was perfect for that.
We worked with Anne at the W20thCC who was very kind and nice. Daniel the caretaker also was of immense help in making sure things ran smoothly.
One note: from the time we reserved the place to the time the wedding happened, they changed a rule that requires the renter to get insurance for their event. If you own a house, it may fall under that policy. We did not, but found reasonably priced insurance for $ 250. Not a huge expense, but it was an unexpected one.
Overall, we could not be happier with our fantastic wedding here.

Daniel the caretaker is what makes this venue not just beautiful to look at, but an easy, organized place for holding events,

Pleased to see this old Women’s club is on Unilocal.
I just had my wedding here. The club has many benefits 1) it is just a beautiful old building. Just lovely. It really suited our laid back style and our wedding was very cozy. Kinda like having it at someone’s house. 2) It’s probably the most affordable place you can rent in Los Angeles to get married or host an event.
Rental includes 8 foot tables and chairs you need. (You can upgrade the quality at the rental house).
Everything else you have to provide, but this is truly a hidden gem and I feel very lucky to have discovered it before all ya’ll did. :-D
The club is a non profit and they need to make money off rentals, so do check them out. When I was planning my wedding, I could find NO info on it. So I’m pleased to share with you all you need to know.
Rates may change, so I won’t post that but it is a great location for a budget wedding. There is a new caretaker who lives on the property and he is awesome. The last caretaker was an elderly man and the only other bride I know who had her wedding reception there, said he kept showing up like Where’s Waldo in her pictures… in his pajamas.
Hee hee.
I thought it was funny but we really lucked out because Daniel took over the week of our wedding and he was amazing. Just so incredibly helpful. I’m so pleased the club has him now. He’s excellent.
Roe used to handle rentals but is handing it over to someone else soon, so can’t comment on that. But it’s a beautiful place. Great kitchen and big fridge. Beautiful lawn and plenty of room for a reception. With an old classic flair to it. We had 55 at our wedding, but had originally invited 80. Don’t think you can go over 150 here.
We just embraced the beauty the building had and had a vintage, rustic themed wedding. Worked great.
I think the main piece of info you should keep in mind is that this is a non profit run by volunteers. This isn’t the place to get married or have an event if you are going to be a bridezilla who needs everything to be just perfect.
They aren’t going to plan your event and they have strict rules to take care of this historic building. Treat it respectfully and with that in mind and you will have a charming experience.
I’m very grateful to them. Our day was filled with beauty and joy (and we did everything ourselves, except the catering basically)
Highly recommend.

I went to a friends party here. There was roughly 200 people for there 1950’s theme birthday party. All and all the venue was really nice and historically pleasing especially for The 50’s vibe. We had a nice evening and enjoyed some late night oinksters after. They had a photo booth which really adds a nice touch to the event. it was the same guy we booked for my wedding. Its fun for the guests to have something to do during the party, and a token to remember the occasion. (I think it was Dream Works PHoto booth if anybody is interested I can get the Info)

(Attended 3÷10÷12 SA): A hidden gem in the middle of Eagle Rock that I never knew exist. How fun!
My cousin celebrated her 40^th birthday here, and I never got an exact answer as to how she came about renting out the Women’s Twentieth Century Club located in the heart of Eagle Rock on Colorado Blvd. For all the time I’ve spent in Eagle Rock enjoying the many places to eat and visiting friends (I’ve even eaten at Colombo’s Italian Steakhouse and Jazz across the street, and the taco trunk next door in the gas station parking lot), I always thought this was simply a house. Oh no, my friends, apparently, it’s more than that!
The Women’s Twentieth Century Club of Eagle Rock was founded in the late 1890s, and this facility was built in the early 1910s. The Craftsman style structure is still beautiful today, and upon further review and survey of the neighborhood, truly stands out among the other homes along Hermosa Ave. You would expect this to actually be located in the older neighborhoods in Pasadena with the rest of the glorious Craftsman’s.
As you walk up the steps and approach the spacious porch area, you head towards the front door and instantly notice how it opens up to an auditorium with ample floor space and a stage, reminiscent of where a town hall meeting would take place in those old movies from the 20s and 30s. The high ceilings lend even more to the amount of openness found in this room. Other areas to point out are the alcove or what appeared like a separate sitting area, the full kitchen, a waiting area of sorts upon entering into the building, a small bathroom, and an outdoor area for more seating.
I don’t know the rental rates, restrictions, or payment method, but I’m sure you can find such information here at their official website:
For this particular event, there were no facility-​specific individuals as you would expect at an actual banquet hall. So, your service is whomever you hire or bring along.
Parking is relatively ample as there is plenty of side-​street parking everywhere. You also have Colorado Blvd., but I can’t remember if there are any meters. Lastly, they do have their own minimal parking, but I recommend hitting the street parking instead.
Overall, I thought the Women’s Twentieth Century Club was a pretty cool building based on the historical factor alone. I’m a born-​and-​raised Angeleno and whenever I come across hidden nuggets of this great city of mine, it always makes me proud that someone has taken the initiative and effort to try and preserve them for future generations. I can’t say for sure whether or not I would rent out this place for an event of my own, but I can certainly say that I appreciate knowing that there is such an option available. I think others should take a look and maybe add this as an option to their list, too! A 3 ½ stars for me!
