We had our wedding at The Majestic two weeks ago and truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The venue itself is stunning—full of old-school charm with a timeless, elegant feel. The Reserve is such a cool, unique space that added so much character to our day. Our guests are still talking about how memorable and different the location was!
But hands down, the best part of our entire wedding experience was Ashton. She manages The Majestic and also runs her own coordination business—which we hired her for (and highly recommend you do too!). Ashton is the definition of professional: responsive, organized, calm under pressure, and incredibly knowledgeable. She knows The Majestic better than anyone else and somehow manages multiple large-scale events weekly without skipping a beat.
She was so supportive of all our ideas, helped us explore vendors, and introduced us to people who knew the space well—which made a huge difference. Everything looked beautiful and went off without a hitch, all thanks to her!
We truly can’t recommend The Majestic and Ashton enough. If you’re considering this venue for your next event—do it! -

Wedding of our dreams!
When my wife and I were looking for the perfect place to have our dream wedding I don’t think we ever imagined we would find a place as perfect as the Majestic. From our first glance we knew it was the spot. Ashton was always available and responsive from the day we inquired through the day we said I do (and even after). The incredible ambiance and open setup made our wedding day truly special. The feedback we’ve received from guests was “wedding of the century”. Could not be any happier. Thank you Ashton and Majestic for a truly magical experience! -

The wedding of our dreams
We are so thankful to Ashton and her team for all of their advice and support throughout the wedding planning process! They were flexible and really helped make the entire process so easy. From helping us find a wedding planner and vendor recs to even helping us capture some really precious memories from the day of the wedding, I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone looking for a gorgeous historic space for their next special event! -

Ashley Sent on 06/22/2020Our Dream Venue
The Majestic was our absolute dream wedding venue! We booked this venue without having seen it person and we could have not been more awed once we did. This venue is perfect if you want your ceremony and reception together in one place like we did. Not only was this venue everything we could have wanted but Ashton, the venue director as well as our DOC, was such a pleasure to work with. She made our special day and weeks leading up to it, so unforgettable! She carried out our vision and with no friction at all. -

Wedding of our dreams!
My husband and I had the most spectacular wedding at the most beautiful venue. It was and still is the wedding of our dreams and if I could do it all over again I 100% would! The venue coordinator, Ashton, was so helpful and made herself available to us pretty much whenever we needed. She offered recommendations for vendors and any other assistance we needed for our big day. She was thoughtful and you could really tell she cared about each of her couples and their experience. So big thank you to Ashton for making our experience so effortless and amazing! -

Minkyung Sent on 09/05/2019The MOST beautiful venue to have the wedding in LA!
Majestic Downtown was the one and only venue, my husband and I visited. The moment we booked an appointment with Ashton I was so excited to see the venue. The chandeliers are absolutely GORGEOUS! I am a big fan of chandeliers and I have never seen this many chandeliers that are so pretty.
We had to choose Majestic without any hesitation or doubt. It was the BEST decision we made!
From booking the venue to having everything set up - Ashton was extremely helpful. She is very fast at responding and was able to answer all the questions I have. I am very picky and make sure I ask A LOT of questions and she was able to address everything for me. As a bride, you tend to forget a lot about vendors and venue - but Ashton was able to make sure I'm on time on everything.
Our wedding turned out BEAUTIFUL! It was the wedding I have been dreaming of. Our guests were in awe of how beautiful the venue was! The chandeliers and the stairs are my absolute favorite from the venue.
Thank you Ashton for making our wedding the way we always wanted & for being so helpful!
If you want to have a memorable and dream wedding, you have to visit Majestic and have your wedding here! You will regret it if you don't! -

Me and my husband had our wedding here a few days ago and the venue is absolutely gorgeous. We worked with Ashton who was extremely sweet, helpful, and pleasant to work with during our planning process :) She provided us with all the important information requirements, and guidelines as well as a list of preferred vendors to help with planning. She worked closely with my wedding planner to ensure everything worked out well on my wedding day. Would highly recommend the place and working with Ashton!!! -

The most amazing wedding venue, amazing team, stunning and unique!
The Majestic Downtown was a dream for us! This was such a unique venue with beautiful history and architecture, and a blank slate for us to add decor but so beautiful it didn't need much. Not only that, but Ashton and the rest of the team were so responsive, understanding, and really went above and beyond for us. When the wedding stress hit and we needed a support and advocate, Ashton was there to make the whole process run smoothly! We are so thankful for her and The Majestic for making our day so special and perfect! -

Magnificent
This is truly one of the greatest wedding venues around Los Angeles. we had the pleasure of working with Ashton who is in charge of the venue and she made the process very easy and made sure that our wedding was an amazing experience for everyone involved. She also was our day of coordinator which allowed us to really enjoy the day and make sure that the wedding was exactly what we wanted and envisioned. Ashton cared about our day as if it were her own wedding. We have no negative remarks at all the venue and Ashton where five star. I would recommend the venue and Ashton to anyone that asked me about the Majestic. -

I came to see this venue and I absolutely loved it! It’s a big open space and there’s so much you can do to have a grand and beautiful wedding there. Unfortunately I didn’t choose this place just because of the location. I didn’t want my guests to be stuck in the traffic. -

Arash Sent on 09/06/2019Loved The Majestic!
We visited quite a number of locations before visiting The Majestic and as soon as we walked in, we knew we wanted to have our wedding there! It's magical, historic, and unique compared to many of the weddings we've been to over the years. The exact qualities we were looking for.
Working with Ashton only amplified how amazing The Majestic is. From a wedding planning standpoint, we had some difficulties and challenges. Ashton was one of the few people that went above and beyond to help us get over those hurdles. We are very grateful to have met her and worked with her!

10/10 BEST Wedding Venue
The Majestic was the only venue we viewed for our September Wedding, and one step inside was all it took to know this was the place for us. Ashton did an AMAZING job walking us through all of the history and showing us the beauty of the venue, and even showed us some nods to movies that had been filmed there (ask about Batman) She was our Coordinator as well and when i tell you I have never been to a wedding that had run so smoothly, the fact that it was ours, made it SO much better. Months later we still get so many compliments on the venue, the staff, and just everything. Ashton and her whole team were super professional and made our wedding of our dreams a reality! -

Dream Wedding
Getting married at the Majestic will forever be the most cherished memory of ours. This venue has so much old Hollywood charm and character; everyone was in awe of how beautiful the space is. We loved every minute of it! The space was not only beautiful but the service provided was also amazing. I can’t thank Ashton, their event director enough for the help that she gave us. She made the whole process very smooth and got back to us quickly whenever we had a question. Planning a wedding is very stressful so I was super thankful to have been able to work with their kind and helpful staff like her. I highly recommend that everyone should get married here if they want a memorable historical venue with awesome staff! -

I recently planned a wedding at The Majestic Downtown, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The venue itself is stunning and offers a level of character and flexibility that makes designing an event there truly seamless.
I also want to highlight Ashton, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is organized, responsive, and consistently stayed one step ahead during the planning process. On the event day, she made sure everything ran smoothly and was incredibly supportive with any last-minute needs. Her professionalism and calm demeanor made a real difference.
As a wedding planner, I work with many venues across Los Angeles, and The Majestic Downtown, along with Ashton’s partnership, stands out as one of the best experiences I’ve had. I look forward to working together again. -

An Unforgettable DTLA Wedding Venue with Amazing People!
From the start, my fiancé (now husband :P) and I knew we wanted our wedding in DTLA. A city spent a LOT of time in when we first started dating! It made sense to celebrate our wedding here and make it a full circle thing. With our wedding, our goal was to make it an amazing event - to ensure we really showhow magical the city can be to our family, friends and other loved ones. When we found The Majestic - we knew this was it! Not only was it located in a prime location, but it also was able to accommodate several hundred people (we have a huge guest list) AND it is SO GORGEOUS!! Honestly, pictures do not do it justice.
In the times we live in now, an amazing vendor team and venue team is so important. With regard to who we worked with from the venue - her name is Ashton. She's the Majestic's Sales and Events Director. You guys, she is SOOOO great to work with. And seriously - even our other vendors raved about her. Always professional, helpful, tentative and kind. We were really taken care of by her.
When our wedding came (1/1/2022) it was better than I could've imagined. The night was SO dreamy, we got so much great feedback from even the hardest critics in our families and friends on the vibe, how everything went seamlessly.. just everything!
I recommend any couple to take a tour as soon as you believe having a city wedding is your vision! I'm sure bookings are happening fast. If you're able to secure a date for this epic place, rest assured you're in good hands with The Majestic & Ashton :-) -

Stunning venue with a great staff
My wife and I just officially tied the knot at The Majestic Downtown after being together for 11 years, and we’re still in awe with how amazing our wedding day was. We were engaged for two years prior to our actual wedding, so we had plenty of time to locate our dream venue. Visiting The Majestic early in the process made this an easy decision as we instantly fell in love with this beautiful venue. There are literally no words to describe just how stunning this venue is, from the detailed ceilings to the marvelous chandeliers, this is the PERFECT wedding venue. Literally every single guest marveled at how beautiful the venue is, and we’re still receiving non-stop compliments a full 2 weeks later. The name of the venue truly describes its exquisiteness. For couples on a budget (like we were), this is the perfect location because the venue itself is so stunning. We added drapery and lighting to give our day a special touch, but the venue alone is a great starting point (opposed to an outdoor location or empty hall, in which you’re essentially starting with a blank slate).
Lastly, we couldn’t leave a review without mentioning how AMAZING the venue manager is. Ashton Alvarado was a true joy to work with from the day we meet her, nearly 2 years before our actual wedding. Ashton was extremely responsive to every email, text and call as if this was her own wedding. From helping put together the floorplan/diagram to full vendor coordination, she truly went above and beyond in every aspect. Her passion, positive energy and calm demeanor brought so much ease to my wife and I, and we we’re so extremely grateful for her assistance throughout the entire planning process. Words can’t describe how critical she was to the success of our dream wedding, and we’re forever thankful for her making our dream wedding a reality.
Overall, if you’re looking for an indoor venue in the Los Angeles area that will have your guests in awe, I highly suggest looking no further than The Majestic. Not only is this venue a true gem, Ashton Alvarado will do everything in her power to make your dream wedding a reality. THANK YOU!!!!

Dream Venue
The Majestic is a spectacular venue. The vintage architecture created the perfect backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. Our guests really enjoyed themselves and there was plenty of space to get creative; we had a fantastic cocktail hour up on the mezzanine and created an arcade in the space under the stairs. We also can' t say enough about how wonderful and easy it was to work with Ashton. She's a pro through and through. She is helpful, kind, responsive and on top of everything. -

Michael Sent on 11/10/2017Finding a wedding venue in Los Angeles is not an easy task. It needs to represent your personality, your style…and meet your budget requirements. We took one look at The Majestic Downtown, and knew it was perfect.
Ashton, the Events Director at The Majestic, was AMAZING. She was so welcoming, helpful, and gracious. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in planning my wedding. Being the anal-retentive perfectionist that I am, she graciously allowed me numerous visits to measure, re-measure, walk around, and be inspired. She provided plans for electric and measurements, and gave me checklists to help navigate the legalities and paperwork that comes with throwing a wedding. She returned calls promptly, and answered all of my questions. She made me feel like mine was the only wedding being planned….when I know that’s not the case. She proudly showed off the space like a new child, and did whatever she could to make me feel comfortable.
A former bank headquarters, it’s floor to ceiling marble and elegance. Large, open spaces, beaded chandeliers throughout, with high hand-painted ceilings. We had been looking for something unique, a place that was special and different. You enter the space to see a grand staircase that leads up to the mezzanine. There’s a large hall to the left, which is where we had our ceremony, and later converted it to the dance area. There’s a larger area to the right which is where we had the dinner and reception. The entire area was decorated simply with lighting and flowers. Really didn’t need much more than that. the space itself is glorious. The Majestic is beautiful on it’s own. I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to have another wedding at The Majestic….but I don’t plan on that happening. -

Jennifer Sent on 07/18/2024Amazing Wedding Venue
We are so happy that we chose this venue for our wedding in early July. We were looking for a venue that had a "old Hollywood" vibe and would speak for itself. It did just that - and more! The venue is so incredibly stunning in person - the pictures do not do it justice.
Moreover, we loved working with the team at the Majestic, especially Ashton, who we also chose as our wedding coordinator. She is incredibly professional, thoughtful, and kind. We felt that she was honest with us throughout the process, which made working with outside vendors much easier. Despite how busy the Majestic is, she always made time for us and made us feel appreciated and special - not like we were just another event on the calendar. Her team was also lovely and we enjoyed working with everyone on staff. So happy we went with this venue and group! -

Beautiful Venue
The Majestic was everything I could have asked for and more. Beautiful venue, different from all the other cookie cutter banquet halls you see but still reasonably priced. They give you the flexibility to really make it your own with a beautiful canvas. Ashton Alvarado the event director was amazing. She accommodated us and really was so easy to work with. The majestic is a venue whether you want to go all out or if you want to be slightly budget minded but in a beautiful setting. The guests could not stop raving about the location and ambiance. -
