The Alexandria Ballrooms

The Alexandria Ballrooms are a dream. I fell in love with this venue as soon as I saw it. The King Edward has high ceilings, polished hard wood flooring, large mirrors, beautiful chandeliers, a balcony over looking the venue. The King Edward is where I had my wedding ceremony and I barely needed to decorate the room

I want to take the time to write a short review about this venue as a dj and as a guest. I have been a dj over 20 years, have been part of 1,000s of weddings, and have dj in many different venues, but nothing like “The Palm Court Ballroom”. It was amazing!! I loved the venue, the flower arrangements, the food and of course the music! The bar lounge was awesome! Friendly bartenders! Michelle A., the coordinator, was fantastic! She worked hard to make sure everything ran as planned. She made sure that the bride and groom and their guest were taken care of. As a dj being able to work and to communicate with the event coordinator is very important, Michelle was super easy to work with. She made my job a lot easier! Overall, I recommend this venue!

My husband and I had an absolute magical wedding here. We saw a few other venues that didn't feel "right" for us, but after attending an event here we knew this was the place. After touring the place we were certain and booked it. For only giving ourselves 2 and a half months of planning time, the event was a great success and the only thing that went wrong the entire night was that the caterer ran out of vodka, and it took a hour to get more. We held our event in the Palm Court Ballroom and attached cocktail lounge.. The staff was easy to work with and worked out a payment plan that fit our budget and ensured that it would be paid in full on time. We received so many compliments about the venue choice and the ceremony itself. The place is already so elegant looking that even minimal dressing made it look that more amazing. I also suggest renting the bridal suite as it came in handy for us all night. My husband and I were extremely pleased how everything turned out and highly recommend this venue for your special day!

We got married here in March of 2017. We held both our ceremony and reception. Ceremony: King Edward Ballroom This is probably my favorite of the 3 rooms. High ceilings, wood floors, massive chandeliers. You really do feel like you are in an old ballroom in New York, not in the heart of Los Angeles. You also have huge windows on one side of the ballroom. This room made for spectacular photos. On the other side of the room is a balcony, where we had a singer perform. Reception: Palm Terrace Ballroom We rented this ballroom for the reception along with the cocktail area right outside it. We had about 260 in the Palm Terrace. Another beautiful room, no windows, but it has beautiful chandeliers and a massive stain glass window on the ceiling. With 260 we weren't able to have a bar inside, I was concerned that our guests would have to keep going out to the cocktail area, but it turned out not to be a problem at all. We also hired Michelle as our day of coordinator (which I would definitely recommend, she knows the place well and took a lot of stress away from us). In conclusion, I can't be happier that we chose the Alexandria Ballrooms. It was an amazing day, and an amazing venue.

When we first saw the venue, my fiance and I fell in love and knew we wanted to have our wedding here. We worked closely with Michelle, one of the venue coordinators. When we booked the venue, our prices were high but checking their website again, their prices were higher. People are falling in love with the venue and more people are booking this place. The venue itself was absolutely amazing and great for the theme that I had for my wedding. I had a very old Hollywood, presidential, elegant ballroom wedding. The ballrooms have amazing chandeliers that really wowed our guests. The only downside to the venue is the management. The management seems really disorganized. A few months before our wedding date, someone from their management emailed me about mailing in my final payment which I submitted by mail timely. Then few weeks later, I was emailed again for our final payment. After responding that I did, I was anxiously waiting for their response which didn't come for a few days. In those days I was calling my bank making sure the check was not deposited by somebody else. It was added stress and anxiety that I didn't need. In the end, they verified they had my final payment and everything was okay. Secondly, my wedding planner had a difficult time verifying that we would have the exact number of tables and chairs for the wedding. We were guaranteed a certain number of chairs and tables from the venue via contract but the staff at Alexandria had a hard time tracking their tables and chairs and could not confirm an exact number with us so we ordered additional chairs and tables which was an added cost that I didn't expect. This was all during the last 2 weeks before the wedding. Very stressful. Overall, the venue was amazing and gorgeous but the management could be more organized. I hope they improve for the future couples who also fall in love with the venue space.
