Why I Love It

History of Redbird LA

Redbird LA has become synonymous with sophisticated urban LA weddings. It blends historical architecture, modern luxury, and a divine culinary experience curated by Chef Neal Fraser and his wife Amy Knoll Fraser. 

This distinguished restaurant and wedding venue, located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, is steeped in history and elegance. The restaurant is located inside the former rectory building of Vibiana, a former Catholic cathedral that is now a luxury event venue. Originally built in 1876, the ornate Vibiana barely survived the 1994 Northridge earthquake. The LA Conservancy fought to save it from demolition, and it was meticulously restored, preserving its historical essence while transforming it into the modern event space it is today. 

In 2012, Redbird LA opened its doors and is a chic contemporary space that seamlessly marries its rich heritage with tasteful design. The restaurant features a variety of event spaces that each offer a unique and intimate setting for weddings, from the main dining hall to multiple private dining rooms.
