Venue Description
Standing at the edge of the ocean between Zuma State Beach
and Broad Beach, the Malibu West Beach Club occupies one of the most desirable
chunks of real estate in Southern California. Glorious white sand stretches 200
yards from the Clubhouse to the breaking surf, and from the facility’s deck,
there’s a 180-degree panorama of the vast Pacific and miles of Malibu
coastline. When it’s clear, you can see Catalina Island and the Channel
Islands, and almost daily you’ll spot dolphins leaping out of the water as they
swim by.
This
private club built in 1962 is an unassuming two-story structure partially
screened from the street behind bougainvillea and evergreen trees; you’d never
know it was there if you didn’t go looking for it. The event space, which is on
the top floor, is basically one large room with a high, vaulted ceiling and an
adjacent deck. There is also a private room off to the side of the entry
for use as a bride’s room, kid’s room or whatever your event might
require. It’s clean, simple and unadorned as can be—a blank canvas on
which to create your own vision. A dance floor and several leafy Kentia palms
are the only elements that you’ll have to incorporate into your grand plan. Of
course the sunsets, visible through the club’s glass façade, complement any
décor.
Accommodations
Speaking of sunsets, that’s when most ceremonies take place.
Guests are seated facing the ocean on the tiled 50-foot-wide deck, while bride
and groom tie the knot under a flower-covered arch, canopy or chuppah.
Afterwards, the newlyweds and attendants are invited to go down to the beach
for wedding photos. All the elements are there for fabulous pictures: sun,
sand, ocean—there’s even a Baywatch-style lifeguard tower on which everyone can
pose for a group shot.
Generally, dinner and dancing are indoor activities, while
sipping champagne, sampling hors d’oeuvres and lingering over a setting sun all
take place on the deck. If you prefer, tables can be set up on the deck for an
al fresco reception. From your oceanfront perch, you’ll feel the cool breezes
and taste the tang of sea salt in the air. At night, you can look up and see
millions of stars being born. Given
its beachfront location, genial ambiance and affordable prices, the Club is
understandably in demand.

Reviews & Testimonials
We had our ceremony and reception here a few weeks back. We could not have chosen a nicer setting for our intimate wedding. The venue was perfect with a wonderful outside patio that's on top of the beach. Helen was our planner and she did a great job coordinating almost every detail for us (caterer, photographer, decoration, officiant, party gifts, cake, bartenders, etc.). This came especially handy since we live in Virginia, so most of the planning was from across the country! Us and our guests (about 55 people) all had a great time. Thanks to Helen and everyone else at MWBC for helping make it such a wonderful and memorable day. Steve O.
I attended a wedding at this place in September. The facility is very nice for a small to moderate group. Approximately 150. It had a nice beach area and was just what my niece was looking for. Very reasonably priced for Malibu especially. Robert M.
Enjoy incredible ocean and beach views, moonlights, and sunsets from our Dining Room and from the deck which extends over our private beach.
