Brian took care of us as soon as we spoke to him. He executed all our wishes and our many changes we made. He made us feel so relieved we found the Marinaj Banquet & Events. Mayra’s communication with us relieved all our worries as she was very quick with her responses. Her friendly attitude and warmth was very inviting both in person and online. Our event was 10/24/24. Everything was amazing!! We received compliments left and right. About the venue, decorations, THE FOOD, bar, dj, late night snacks, and the service. Alexia and Alicia were so welcoming and quick to serve!! Edgar was our bartender and he worked his butt off!! There was nothing but compliments for Edgar. Fast service and with a smile!! The floor manager that night was extremely helpful!! From the moment we got to the venue she made sure we had everything we needed. The lobby was being cleaned as we were still there and I really liked how they kept it clean. Food was phenomenal!! Dj Bert was extraordinary!! His MC was on point! He knew exactly how to get the crowd going. Amazing man. The kitchen crew were amazing as well!! Good people. Thank you Marinaj for hosting us. It was truly an honor.

Our wedding day at Marinaj was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we met with Brian, the sales manager, to discuss our vision, we knew we were in capable hands. The ceremony on the veranda was flawless, thanks to Brian's meticulous planning and execution.
Jenny, the brilliant mind behind the menu, guided us through delectable options. We opted for the chicken and waffles and salmon bites, which were a hit during our endless tray-passed hors d'oeuvres-filled cocktail hour. Lee and Natasha bartender duo kept the drinks flowing, delighting our guests throughout the night.
Daniel, the event manager, ensured our chosen lighting and timeline ran seamlessly. Walking into our beautifully decorated venue(Royal Ballroom) was a literal breath-taker, and our guests shared the same 'wow' reaction. The chandeliers just give the room the most elegant touch.
The entire staff, elegantly dressed, served with precision. The speed at which everyone was served was impressive. The highlight, undoubtedly, was the incredible food--Parmesan crusted Caesar salad, braised short rib, and chicken Marsala left our guests raving.
Marinaj made our wedding day the best of our lives. Brian, Daniel, Jenny, and the entire staff went above and beyond. Look no further for the best wedding venue in SoCal. Thank you, Marinaj, for an unforgettable day!

We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Marinaj Banquets and Events and it was an absolutely incredible experience. From the moment we set foot in the venue, we knew we had found the perfect place to celebrate our special day. Marinaj Banquets and Events exceeded all our expectations in every way, and we couldn't be happier with the results. All of our guests were so impressed with the beauty of the venue as well as the service and professionalism of the staff.
Everyone says wedding planning is stressful, and yes it really is, but the team at Marinaj made our experience much more manageable than I had anticipated. They took the time to understand our vision and executed it flawlessly -- providing their recommendation and expertise along the way. We truly felt like their number one priority, and their guidance made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. We used a few vendors outside of Marinaj (which they were very accommodating about), but they also have so many in-house vendors such as food/drinks, decor, and lighting, which made the planning process so much easier.
We highly recommend Marinaj to anyone looking for an elegant and stress-free wedding experience. Our day was truly magical, and we are forever grateful to the Marinaj team for making it all possible.

We had our wedding here on 09/23/23; this venue and their entire team exceeded our expectations at every level. From the beginning our Event Advisor, Kristen, made us feel like we were in great hands. She was so helpful and patient throughout the planning process. The day of, was a dream. Not only is this a beautiful venue but everything else is 10/10: Food, drinks, banquet service, bathroom cleanliness, large parking lot, management. Every person we interacted with was helpful and had a smile to greet everyone. You will not be disappointed if you have your event here. We have received and continue to receive so many compliments from our guests. Thank you Marinaj Team!

Oh my goodness, this venue is beautiful. My husband and I are from LA, and we came out to look at venues in Moreno Valley. We found this place, and it was only 7 mins away from my family’s house! I fell in love with the venue right away. The staff have been supportive and so helpful through the process up to the day of the wedding. Kristen was very communicative with us as well as Brian. Everybody was so sweet and supportive on our special day and they made everything run smoothly. Thank you for making our wedding even more beautiful!

Where do I start, I wasn’t even going to consider this venue but Kristen assured me I should come in person to see the place and discuss prices. When I arrived I was blown away by the huge chandelier in the crystal ballroom. I loved that they included the major settings (tables, chairs, linens, utensils, food, bar, DJ, lighting, etc). We were able to end our event at 1am which other venues need to end by 10pm. We also had our ceremony at the veranda at the marinaj which was perfect. Kristen was SUPER helpful along the process and always replied to my emails within 24hours. The staff was super sweet and always made sure to ask if we needed anything. Our bartender did amazing!!! The cleaning staff as well, I don’t remember the woman’s name who was working that night but she helped hold my dress while I used the restroom! Unfortunately our DJ had a family emergency but they had another DJ who was able to help us out and did an amazing job. The event manager that night was also super helpful and I loved her attitude. I honestly can’t complain about anything every single person who worked that night was amazing ( I really wish I remembered everyone’s names). The venue is beautiful and it’s a must see

My weddding day turn out amazing! With minor hiccups like any other wedding marinaj banquets made my night most memorable . Special thanks to Josh our dj for the night he was absolutely amazing even with my last minute changes he was very professional from start to finish . only thing I would change is the photographer he didn't deliver like I thought he would he left people that was in my wedding party out of many photos she photos that were taken I still have yet to see them so I'm not really sure if he captured what I wanted, thankfully I had another photographer at my wedding so hopefully with pictures combined I will have a few good one . Food was good but service was rushed other than that I am satisfied with the outcome.
