Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • Set on one of the most desirable slices of beachfront in Southern California, this elegant club knows its superpower. Glorious white sand stretches 100 yards from the clubhouse to the breaking surf, and from the second-floor deck there's a 180-degree panorama of the vast Pacific and miles of Malibu coastline.
  • Ceremonies on the expansive oceanfront deck are backed by glorious Pacific panoramas. While the newlyweds snap photos on the sugar-sand beach, guests are welcome stay and mingle al fresco, savoring the views. As the reception unfolds indoors, this outdoor space remains an inviting escape for a breath of sea air between spins on the dance floor.
  • Floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors span the length of the banquet room, encouraging an easy flow between inside and out. The bright and airy sapce boasts a high vaulted and arched ceiling, driftwood-colored floor, and ceilings draped with Georgette chiffon, twinkle lights, and crystal chandeliers.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book Malibu West Beach Club, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

Your Malibu West Beach Club rental in Malibu covers a 12-hour block with exclusive use of the upstairs level of the beachfront clubhouse: the banquet room, the oceanfront deck, the kitchen and a private getting-ready suite. Tables and chairs, required cleaning, security and an on-site rep for your whole event are included, along with 7 parking spaces in the gated lot. Since you bring your own vendors here, you'll book your own caterer, bartender, rentals and decor. Plan for $150 each for table and chair setup and breakdown, $100 an hour past 12 hours, and a $1,000 damage deposit.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at Malibu West Beach Club, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, everything happens in one place at Malibu West Beach Club. You'll say "I do" on the tiled, 50-foot-wide deck facing the ocean, under an arch, canopy or chuppah (available to rent), then move inside to the banquet room for dinner and dancing. In between, you and your wedding party can head down to the sand for portraits while guests enjoy cocktails on the deck.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to Malibu West Beach Club or do we have to use yours?

You're welcome to bring your own vendors to Malibu West Beach Club, including your own caterer and your own alcohol. Alcohol must be served by a licensed and bonded bartender, and there's no cash bar. Outside caterers post a deposit and are vetted by the club's events director, and food is prepared on site in the clubhouse kitchen. Want a head start? The club shares a list of favorite vendors, but you don't have to use it.

What should we realistically expect to spend on a wedding at Malibu West Beach Club, and is there a minimum?

At Malibu West Beach Club in Malibu, the venue rental runs $5,650–$10,450, depending on the day of the week, the season and your guest count. Monday–Thursday is the best value year-round: $5,650 for 99 or fewer guests, $6,250 for 100–170 and $6,850 for 171–250. From April through October, Saturdays run $9,250–$10,450 and Fridays and Sundays $8,250–$9,450. From November through March, weekends are $8,250–$9,450. A 50% non-refundable deposit reserves your date, with the balance due 60 days before your wedding, along with a $1,000 damage deposit. Since you bring your own caterer and bar, budget for food and drinks separately.

If it rains on our wedding day at Malibu West Beach Club, what would the backup ceremony actually look like?

Malibu West Beach Club in Malibu has a rain plan built in: if the weather turns, your ceremony and cocktail hour move inside the clubhouse, where you'll still have a full view of the ocean. Tenting is also available for the oceanfront deck. You'll need to make the call at least 72 hours ahead, so keep an eye on the forecast that week.

What makes Malibu West Beach Club different from the other venues near it?

Malibu West Beach Club puts your wedding right on the beach in Malibu, with about 100 yards of sand between the clubhouse and the surf and a 180-degree view of the Pacific from the second-floor deck. You get exclusive use of the upstairs clubhouse for a 12-hour block, so getting ready, a first look on the sand, your ceremony and the party all happen in one place. You can also bring your own caterer, your own alcohol (served by a licensed bartender) and the vendors you already love. And with weekday dates starting at $5,650, an oceanfront wedding is within reach for more budgets.

Does Malibu West Beach Club work for a small wedding or an elopement, and what would that look like?

Yes, Malibu West Beach Club works well for a smaller celebration. The lowest pricing tier is for 99 or fewer guests, starting at $5,650 for Monday–Thursday dates, and you still get the full 12-hour rental, the oceanfront deck, the banquet room and the getting-ready suite. Since you bring your own caterer and bar, you can size the food and drinks to your guest count.
