The Garland Hotel

One of my favorite venues to go to as a Professional Makeup and hair artist is The Beverly Garland in North Hollywood. Its a piece of "old Hollywood". Established in 1970 by Beverly Garland and her husband Fillmore Crank on a former seven0acre Gene Autry ranch. Originally it was a Howard Johnson, and later became a Beverly Garland Holiday Inn before being named The Garland by their son, James Crank. If your looking for a retro chic wedding venue this is your place. I just did a wedding there in October and was reminded of its very well done decor, the location, and the facet that they can set up everything in one place. The ceremony, the cocktail hour and finally the reception. Photo: Mary Costa
