Old Fashioned Lounge
Ojai
, California
1769 Maricopa Hwy, Ojai, CA 93023
Summit House has the kind of setting that immediately changes the mood of a wedding. The views open up, the valley stretches out below, and everything starts to feel a little more intentional the moment guests arrive. In Ojai, where landscape matters as much as architecture, this venue stands out because it gives couples that elevated, tucked-away feeling without losing warmth. It feels scenic, intimate, and distinctly Ojai in a way that is hard to fake.
Old Fashioned Lounge provides mobile bartending services at Summit House with that exact atmosphere in mind. Mountain and valley view venues need a bar that feels composed and natural within the space. The setup should not interrupt the lines of the terrace or compete with the scenery. It should feel like part of the evening from the start, quietly supporting the flow while guests move between ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.
This venue is especially well suited for a bar program that feels relaxed but polished. Cocktails during sunset with the Ojai hills in view, crisp wine service that fits the setting, mocktails that still feel refined, and espresso service later when the air cools off and the reception settles in. Our team focuses on smart placement, clean visual presentation, and professional service that lets the venue keep its sense of calm while still making sure guests are taken care of all night.

Summit House is a strong fit for Old Fashioned Lounge because elevated venues need bartending that understands flow as much as aesthetics. When a wedding uses terraces, interior space, and outdoor gathering areas, guests need to be able to move naturally without the bar becoming a bottleneck or an afterthought.
That is where we do well. We plan around how the venue is actually being used, where people will gather first, how the transition into cocktail hour works, and what kind of setup will keep service smooth without feeling oversized. The result is a bar that feels appropriate to the scale and tone of the venue.
We also coordinate directly with planners and venue staff so installation, service timing, and breakdown stay organized behind the scenes. At a venue like Summit House, that matters because the best service should feel easy to the couple and almost effortless to the guests.

I started Old Fashioned Lounge because I love great hospitality and serving people well. Weddings are special, and it’s an honor to be part of them. We’ll show up prepared, work hard, and create a bar experience you’ll remember.
