Tivoli Too Wedding Reception Inspiration

Venue Spotlight: Tivoli Too Wedding

The Tivoli venues have a special place in our hearts here at Gilmore Studios. Back in 2003, when we started our business, we booked our first Tivoli Too Wedding. We hit it off with the manager at the time and asked if we could make a sample album for the venue. He accepted, and we immediately started to receive leads from brides who saw it! We ended up booking so many weddings that year- that they made us a preferred photographer for both Tivoli Terrace and Tivoli too! We have been photographing Tivoli Too Weddings ever since.

Tivoli Too Wedding and Reception Inspiration

We decided it would be fun to go back into the photo archives and pick out some of our favorite photos from the past. There is so much you can do with your wedding decor and they provide almost all of it. One of our favorite Tivoli too weddings was for a past Tivoli Terrace wedding coordinator. He brought in custom lighting, dance floor, and drapes.

Browse through some of our favorite Tivoli too weddings below. If you are considering Tivoli Terrace, we will be making a similar page for that venue.

From the venue

Tivoli Too!, a stunning European courtyard, is the ideal location to host your romantic wedding and reception. Tivoli Too! is surrounded by the picturesque hills of Laguna Beach in beautiful Southern California. When you walk through the imported iron gates of Tivoli Too! you are transported to a place of old world romance, complete with a sixty foot mural of the Tuscany countryside.

Depending on the time of year your reception may be in our grand tent draped with lush fabric and twinkle lights or in the open air courtyard where you can dine al fresco by candlelight, surrounded by the beauty of our lush green trees, flowers and fountains. Whether by sunshine or starlight Tivoli Too! is the perfect location for your special day.

Senior 📸

Do you have a personality portrait hanging in your home? 🤍

It’s not about perfect smiles or matching outfits.

It’s about capturing who your child actually IS right now.

Their expressions.
The way they laugh.
Their personality in this exact season of life.

I started doing these with my own kids and honestly… they’ve become some of my favorite things hanging in our home.

I update them yearly and one day, my plan is to have their future family personality photo hanging on the wall. 

These aren’t just photos for now.

They become part of your family story.

Personality Portrait Sessions are available May 12th through June.

Comment PERSONALITY and I’ll send you all the information, available dates, and booking link directly in your DMs.
Prom fashion in 2026 just hits different.

The colors.
The textures.
The dresses with movement.
The perfectly fitted suits.

And somehow every friend group has their own vibe this year.

Honestly? Prom photos have turned into full-on fashion shoots and I’m not mad about it.

Unique locations for a senior session.

If you want your photos to feel different… start here.

Museums
Industrial, bold, and full of character. Clean lines and colors.

Disney World / Disneyland
Color, movement, personality.
It turns your session into an experience, not just photos.

Here’s how I approach locations like this:
We don’t just pick something “unique”… we pick something that actually fits you. Your style, your energy, and how you want your photos to feel.

Because the right location doesn’t just look good…
it makes your photos feel like you.
