As the owner of Kabe Magnolia Events, I'm always on the look out for venues that will offer my client's the same attention to detail as I would. The Warner Center Marriott has always exceeded my expectations with each and every one of the events I've planned and held there. Their ballroom is spacious enough to accommodate a large lavish wedding, Mitzvah or corporate event and can even be downsized for my client's more intimate gatherings. The food is amazing , not your typical banquet fare and the staff always goes above and beyond to cater to my clients most discerning requests. This is a top notch event venue that should be considered for anyone looking to hold a celebration that wows their guests.

We had our daughters wedding reception at the Jonathan Beach Club in their new Penthouse space and it was spectacular. Every aspect of the event was exactly what we'd hoped. The Jonathan Club Wedding Event Coordinator, Christie DeMoss was delightful to work with and had fabulous suggestions. The food tasting was lovely and we felt so special and excited about what our guests would be feasting on! The food was truly elevated and absolutely delicious. The space and the setup were perfect with an outdoor balcony cocktail area and bar, a large lobby for the guestbook, photobooth and activity and then the gorgeous reception space with dance floor. The staff were amazing and so friendly and attentive! I would highly recommend the JBC!
