They do not book weddings any longer. She said its due to 'time' constraints...
I am so very fortunate to have found this place! We got married here, and finding it was like a magical dream come true. We were looking for a funky cool, historic site that would let me cater my own food, and after endless fruitless searches we found the substation. It's in a weird residential part of highland park, right off of figueroa and it's an old electrical substation circa 1906. A chunk of untouched history smack dab in the middle of LA. The owner/guardian, Meike was the most cool and accomodating person ever. She let us do everything ourselves and seemed to prefer it that way! She even ended up joining our wedding reception and Mark and I stayed there until 2 am finishing the keg and chatting around the fire pit. And the price was right, too. She opened up her home to us and our friends (and dogs). I still cant believe we got to have it here. Huge open space with brick, and skylights and a huge loft. A courtyard with a fountain... Ipod compatible soundsystem. We have been invited back for a few parties and she's blown up there. I guess she was featured in the LA times or something. I'm proud to say that we were only the 2nd wedding held there though!
