Duke's Malibu

Duke's Malibu made our wedding dreams a reality, and we can't recommend them highly enough! From the very beginning, the entire team went above and beyond to create a truly unforgettable experience for us and our guests.

Their service was absolutely phenomenal. We were never just another couple on the calendar. They truly cared about making our day special, and their attentiveness made us feel incredibly important. The planning process was a breeze thanks to their expertise and guidance. Communication was excellent - they were always available to answer questions and address any concerns we had.

But the magic truly unfolded on our wedding day. The stunning oceanfront location provided a breathtaking backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The pictures captured the beauty perfectly, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious food and the ambiance of the event space.

Duke's Malibu truly exceeded our expectations in every way. They took care of everything, allowing us to relax and enjoy the most special day of our lives. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any couple looking for a wedding venue that offers stunning scenery, exceptional service, and delicious food. If you want your wedding to be absolutely perfect, Duke's Malibu is the place to make it happen! We'd be happy to refer any of our friends or family to celebrate their special day there too.

From the moment we met Natalie and her team and walked into the Ocean View room, we knew this was THE spqce where we wanted our wedding to happen.
And through the months of continuous indecisiveness, Natalie and her team were so abundantly supportive and helpful in making the important decisions regarding our wedding.
The planning process became doable because Natalie and Tina were always willing to go the extra mile, no matter how simple the request.
Besides the amazing team, it is truly wonderful to be given an option that was not a classical wedding menu, but really fit the Hawaiian 🌺 and seaside 🌊 vibe of the location. We were able to try many different menu items and make slight adjustments with our $150 credit before the wedding. Natalie and her team made sure that allergies were well noted and that special plates were being accommodated for our guests.
Our guests raved about the food!

The staff during our wedding was competent, quick, and efficient. They accommodated our needs in storing our wedding cake the night before the wedding and allowed space in their schedule for our baking fairies to put on the final touches before our ceremony.
We were able to add our own desserts for a dessert fee per person, and the kids loved the ice cream Hula pie that was provided by Duke’s!

We fell a bit behind in our schedule on our wedding day, so the only thing that could have been better was if we had actually had the chance to enjoy more of the wonderful and delicious food that we chose.
Find a good photographer and get ready for a picture-perfect wedding!

Thank you so much, Natalie and Tina for your continuous support and dedication in making our day so special!
We can’t wait to return for another seaside meal at Duke’s and to relive some moments of our special day. 🩵

This is the second event we have hosted at Duke's. It is an all around a fantastic place to celebrate! The staff are extremely helpful while planning the event and they are a pleasure to work with on the day of. We kept it simple and had plenty of room for a dance floor, photo booth and a churro cart. The room lends itself to a warm, happy atmosphere and is perfect for a party.

We just had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Duke’s Malibu this past weekend. Since we were getting married up in the canyons, I wanted something on the water for our rehearsal. We had originally chosen another venue and after starting the process with them, we decided that we weren’t happy. We contacted Duke’s and they couldn’t have been more accommodating! The event staff (Natalie and Madelina) were incredibly helpful in every stage of planning the night/menu and the private room was a perfect size for our needs. The food was terrific and everyone loved the appetizers that we choose...highly recommend the Shrimp Croquettes and Poke Cups!!

From start to finish Duke's Malibu was a dream come true for our wedding. Madelina and Natalie helped us plan and stay on track leading up to the wedding. Natalie ended up helping the day of our wedding and we could not have asked for better service. The service was complimented by everybody who attended our wedding, showing that the staff took not only good care of us, but also our guests.
The food was phenomenal! We had a daytime buffet wedding and we were nervous about how well the food would taste buffet-style, but Duke's again exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend the Duke's Style Fish, it was the highlight of the day.
The view/location. We originally wanted a night wedding, however I am so glad that we did a daytime wedding and took advantage of this venues amazing view. Duke's also provides the ability to do our wedding photos on the beach.
I'm unable to express enough our extreme gratitude and happiness with our whole experience at Duke's and with the Events Team.

Our guests were wowed upon entry to the Ocean Room. Throughout our event, we could hear the ocean - and the views were spectacular. The service was top notch - and the food was delicious. From the very first meeting, through all of our planning, the staff was professional and responsive. We had use of a Wedding Suite to get ready, which was a nice touch. We highly recommend Duke's Malibu for your wedding!

When our room was changed due to remodeling we were upgraded at no extra charge as well as being reassured if we really didn't feel the room would work that we could have the original room. I think our server was Adrian- he was awesome, couldn't have asked for anyone better. He let us change table locations, he was relaxed and helpful. When people weren't getting their own drinks he took some around to get people started. Thank you for helping us have a wonderful day.

The best location we could have chosen for our wedding! It felt like a magical venue for us, and our guests were impressed with the place, the vibe and the food! We heard many times that it felt like they just were at a 'vacation' / wedding. Planning was easier that expected, thanks to Alessa and the Duke's staff, that made us feel at ease through the entire process and they were great at accommodating all the reasonable requests we had; they answered all our questions in a timely manner and they took care of the basic planning and arrangement of the venue. Also, the ocean provided a magnificent background for the ceremony. We felt that compared to other venues in Los Angeles, the Duke's package price was fair and extremely competitive.

Our wedding at Duke's Malibu in December 2014 was absolutely perfect. We had an amazing time and you really can't beat the view! It was absolutely stunning.

The staff did an excellent job. Madelina, Alessa, and Mia were so helpful through the entire process. Every detail was perfect. They really know what they are doing. I could not have imagined a better day or more perfect location. Everything was so easy- from the smooth set up to the food all being exactly on time, I didn't have to worry about a thing! It was exactly what we wanted, a relaxed atmosphere, a beautiful view, and an elegant wedding. We chose a morning wedding (10am) because we wanted to get the most out of the gorgeous ocean view- we even saw dolphins and sea lions playing in the water.

I had to focus really hard on the ceremony because I knew if I looked out the window I'd get lost in the view. :)

The only thing I'm sad about is that we didn't get to enjoy the food. It was delicious and everyone loved it, but we were too excited that we just didn't feel like eating much.

When looking for a venue, I was starting to get discouraged at all the outrageous prices. I reached out to Duke's thinking "there's no way we are gonna be able to afford this" but when I talked to them and got the initial quote, I couldn't believe it. I immediately got excited and thought- "Wow! We can actually do this!"

If you are considering Duke's as an option... DO IT!! It was an awesome experience and everything was so amazing. A really great venue and, in my opinion, a fantastic value. I cannot recommend it enough.

We wanted to take our guests to Hawaii for our wedding. We were taken there by the wonderful people at Duke's Malibu, all of who embody the true meaning of Aloha.

From the very first meeting, the planning, preparation, and course of the magical evening were joyous and, well, perfect. Not a word to use lightly, but they get it right here at Duke's. They listen to you, graciously correspond with you and your vendors creating your dream vision, they focus on the positive, they are diligent and smart, they are empathetic and kind.

Alessa, Madelina, Rob and all the staff we shared our night with are lovely people who take care in what they do and genuinely wish for you to be happy; they are a family - an Ohana - wanting nothing but the very best for you on your special occasion. They are always available to not only assist with, but to manage the smallest of details that you may have overlooked or stressed over. Together as a team, they combine their expertise, skill, and compassion to seamlessly bring the relaxed, Island vibe to the magnificent Ocean Room sitting atop the Pacific.

The location is stunning. Walls of glass open to the endless ocean, and you become one with the glorious sunset. Open windows and a deck perched upon the rocks, the crash of the surf lulls you to memories of Island vacations without a care in the world. This is what we wanted our wedding to be: everybody happy and smiling, enjoying the sea breezes, sipping mai tai's and savoring scrumptious bites. Laughter and love.

Everything was delicious - from the array of appetizers, the huli-chicken, the fresh Hawaiian fish (that I so wanted), the vegetarian dish created just for us that evening, to the splendiferous signature Hula Pie - our guests raved! The service was spot on and incredibly attentive; everyone was cared for as if we were at an intimate dinner party in a private home. There was never a wait at the bar, we were never rushed, and everyone from the wedding party, t
