Marina del rey review

Ill keep it short for once.

The place is gorgeous, you have a beautiful view and for anyone who wants to go out for fresh air, smoke a cig or whatever you are in an area where you can still see into the reception room(well depends which room you have) which i liked

Food was excellent, i tasted a bunch of things at CH and not one complaint. Had the typical CH food such as stuffed mushrooms, baked clams, mini crab cake. Tasted some of FH's raviolis and they had home made type pizza which was great. ONLY thing is that there were no knives anywhere, FH needed it for some of his food and had to wait around for a waitress and ask her for one.

Appetizer, pasta course were delicious. I had the smoked salmon which was very tasty...Fh had the apricot glazed chicken which is stuffed and wrapped with bacon, i tasted some and it was great. The cake was chocolate and banana and it was great. The service was excellent, FH even waited around before we left to find the guy who served us to tip him bc he did such a great job.

DJ was satisfaction guaranteed and they did an excellent job, kept the dance floor packed all night...The groom is a drummer and he did a performance to the song -ac/dc you shook me all night long and everyone crowded around him going crazy, nice touch so if any of your grooms are drummers i suggest that lol.

I liked the entrance very energetic...just a tip bc i notice at weddings sometimes the entrance doesnt make a big impact and ill barely notice, but it was great.

And for any mets fans, roberto alomar was there.

We had a great time, beautiful place, good food and great service, you'll have a beautiful wedding if its there

They did a couple of songs, it was this house mix, i think every couple came out to a different song but they mixed it well bc it went from one song to another...Just the lights were dramatic, the music was very high energy, fast beats and real loud...ive been to weddings where for some reason im like wait what song did they come out to? I do remember the beat to insomnia which was WOW old school lol just the beat though

Oh duh i forgot one thing...THe VH was outside which was real nice, FH and I didnt eat any of it bc we were full but we were outside when they were setting up.

ALSO after pasta course they had lemon sorbet in these mini ice cream cones...the good thing is one of the waitresses came out with a bunch of them to give out to those of us who were outside

no prob

Oh also forgot to bring my camera. I had a hair disaster before i left the house, after curling half of it i realized i wasnt going to have time to finish it, so i tried half up half down didnt work the extensions were showing and poor fh calls me that hes downstairs and after he called i straightened my hair so he waited for about 20-30 mins downstairs, so i just ran out of there.

Yay, so excited. thanks so much for the review.

I was going to have satisfaction guaranteed, but they were EXPENSIVE and don't give you anything included! And they 'don't do giveaways' cuz its not worth it to them. whatever...I had them at my sweet 16 ten years ago and they were great...but I felt like they were acting like they were going to go me a favor by Djing my party.

But anyway, I'm so happy MDR was wonderful.
