Madera perfection

I cannot begin to express my gratitude towards Madera. My wedding, like many others, was ruined by COVID. We were postponed from April 19, 2020 to October 11, 2020. We lost our original reception venue. We lost deposits. We were truly broken hearted and ready to give up. We accepted that a big wedding celebration just wasn’t it the cards. We at least thought maybe we could still just elope with family at the chapel, we hadn’t lost that yet. Well the chapels restrictions changed. We paid for a private ceremony with 40 guests…it was now dropped to 4 from the same household. Basically, we couldn’t have anyone. We almost settled for the chapel anyway with the option to invite everyone to watch over zoom which is what I absolutely did not want. We were just going to try to find a restaurant with outdoor seating to meet our family at, just eat & celebrate after.

Well, yelp lead me to Madera’s website in an attempt to make a reservation for brunch and the first thing I saw was a pop up that said they were taking micro event and had special pricing for couple’s who’s weddings have been ruined by Covid. Talk about a SIGN. Everything moved very fast from that post. I immediately emailed event director Jenn Laskey to get more info. I didn’t have much hope tbh because we didn’t have much left to spend. Well, Jenn being the angel that she is really made every effort to work with me. I was sold from the customer service alone and that platinum service didn’t disappear after we signed the contract and paid the deposit. Jenn stayed on top of everything from start to finish, even after! We had 6 weeks to pull Plan C together- an intimate 37 guest (All family) micro-wedding. We moved everything to Madera completely including the ceremony. Me and Jenn were emailing literally every single day.

Our tasting was scheduled quickly. The food was fantastic from start to finish and bartender AJ worked with us to create two killer featured cocktails that could be ordered virgin as well! Green dolphin and Rosemary Jane were our cocktail winners! We met the owner Milton who was nice as ever and our future site manager for the day of- Marco (also so nice!). They were all so detailed when it came to creating the layout of our big day which was set to take up the entire covered patio. The venue itself IS STUNNING AND NEEDS MINIMAL ADDITIONAL DÉCOR. They own their own beautiful wood tables and chivari chairs plus a bunch of mix and match eclectic lounge furniture! All of that would’ve been a massive extra expense if I had to rent that separately! The venue is dripping in greenery and romantic lights, a true modern boho dream! Both my fiancé and I fell in love during our first walk through!

Our big day couldn’t have gone smoother, then venue took extra safety precautions in regards to COVID. The guest tables were generously spaced out and limited to less than 8 per table all seated with household members. Party dancing was unfortunately not allowed for safety reasons but Jenn and Milton allowed us to keep all our ceremonial milestone dances (first dance, mother-son, father-daughter). Servers were all in masks during the duration of the event, temp checks were done, and all food was served rather than presented buffet style. Both Jenn and Marco were present as our site reps and were fully involved and hands on the whole night ensuring our day was running smoothly. I had such a STRESS FREE WEDDING DAY it almost seemed unreal! The venue was ready when I arrived and so photogenic! My wedding photos are CINEMATIC because the venue. Everything was where it should be. We got married against the vine wall and dined at a head table with wine barrels as our back drop. Our guests were fed non-stop the entire night. Welcome champagne then tray passes during cocktail hour, opening course, main entrée, then multiple desserts and after dinner coffee/tea! EVERYONE WAS SOOO FULL THEY PROBABLY WOULDN’T HAVE EVEN DANCED IF THEY COULD! LOL Our guests are STILL talking about how INSANE the food and drinks were! We had a couple of picky foodies on our guest list, all gave Madera their seal of approval. Our guests were so impressed by the excellent servers and their top notch service. Jenn checked on us constantly throughout the night and made sure we were fed and happy with how the night was going. Our wedding was intimate, stunning, love filled, and I don’t feel like I missed out on anything by choosing to have a micro-wedding at Madera instead of our original plan for a big party. It truly allowed us to see the truth in Quality over Quantity. We were able to spoil our smaller guestlist and have a more magical and memorable night than we ever imagined. I’m so thankful I found Madera. I’m so grateful for Jenn and the entire MADERA TEAM! If you’re considering Madera for your big day, don’t hesitate. You’re making a great choice!

I had a great experience working with Madera Kitchen!

I DJ'd for a wedding at Madera Kitchen earlier this year (on 04/30/2021). I've performed for many venues throughout Southern California, but Madera Kitchen stood out as one of my favorites!

The venue has a beautiful, welcoming atmosphere. It also has the perfect location in the heart of Hollywood. After their wedding ceremony at a nearby church, the couple was able to fit in wedding photos at Griffith Park and throughout Hollywood, all before cocktail hour started at Madera Kitchen.

Madera's staff was professional, friendly, and helpful as well. They were very conscious of all the details that make a wedding perfect for a couple and their guests. Jennifer in particular was great with her communication, and she made the planning process way easier for me as a wedding vendor. The couple was very happy with their wedding as well!

I recommend Madera Kitchen to anyone who's looking for a great atmosphere, location, and service for their wedding!

June Wedding at Madera Kitchen

We had our wedding at Madera Kitchen this past June. From the time we toured the location and tasted the food for the first time we knew Madera was the perfect venue for us! We received so many compliments from guests about how beautiful the venue was and how wonderful the food and drinks were. The food and drink presentation was out of this world, it felt like foodie heaven! They re-designed their vine wall this past spring which made for an amazing backdrop for our ceremony. The venue is so versatile and flexible, the staff at Madera were incredible and the coordinating services provided by Jennifer Laskey were amazing! We couldn't have imagined our special day going any better.
