Marinaj Banquets & Events is at 22605 Alessandro Blvd, Moreno Valley, CA 92553, in Riverside County's Inland Empire. We are about 15 minutes from Riverside, 25 minutes from Redlands, 45 minutes from downtown Los Angeles, and easily reached from the 60, 215, and 91 freeways.
The Royal Ballroom seats 250 to 500 guests with three Austrian crystal chandeliers. The Crystal Ballroom seats 100 to 250 guests under an 11-foot crystal chandelier with 20-foot ceilings. Our outdoor Veranda holds up to 200 guests for a ceremony or 100 for a reception.
All-inclusive wedding packages at Marinaj start at approximately $7,950. Final pricing depends on guest count, ballroom, package tier (Essential, Enhanced, or Unforgettable), and day of the week. Our packages include the venue, tables, chairs, in-house catering, liquor, custom lighting and house sound system, linens, security, and event staff.
Every Marinaj package includes the ballroom, banquet-style setup, professional security, in-house catering, unlimited soft drinks, cake-cutting service, custom uplighting, house sound, TV and slideshow projector, professional banquet staff, and dedicated event coordination. Higher tiers add plated dinners, professional DJ/MC, hors d'oeuvres, late-night snacks, and upgraded linens.
Yes. While Marinaj Catering offers Italian, Latin American, and signature menus, we welcome outside caterers — particularly for South Asian, Middle Eastern, Halal, kosher, Filipino, and other cultural cuisines. Outside catering is subject to venue approval and licensing requirements; please ask your event advisor for the current outside-catering policy.
Yes. Marinaj is one of the Inland Empire's go-to venues for Hindu, Sikh, Punjabi, Gujarati, Tamil, Bengali, and Pakistani weddings. Our entrance accommodates a full Baraat with dhol drummers, our ballrooms support large Mandap setups, and we work with families on Mehndi, Sangeet, Haldi, and reception logistics — including Halal-friendly outside catering.
Yes. We host Persian Sofreh Aghd ceremonies, Lebanese, Syrian, Palestinian, Egyptian and Armenian weddings, Nikah ceremonies, Walima receptions, and Zaffa entrances. The Royal Ballroom's scale supports the larger guest counts these celebrations often require, and we accommodate Halal catering preferences.
Quinceañeras are a Marinaj specialty. Both ballrooms are a popular choice for a large court, vals lighting cues, padrinos recognition, and bilingual MC support. Latin American menu options — including pollo a la brasa and signature dishes — are available through Marinaj Catering, and outside Latin caterers are welcomed with approval.
Beyond weddings, Marinaj hosts corporate galas, conferences, school formals (proms, homecomings, grad nights), milestone birthdays, baby showers, bridal showers, holiday parties, and celebrations of life. Our event coordinators tailor each package to the occasion.
Our packages include seven hours of event time. The latest end time is 1:00 AM, which gives families significantly more runway than many area venues that require a 10:00 or 11:00 PM end.
Yes. Marinaj has an on-site parking lot large enough to accommodate multiple events at full capacity. Parking is complimentary for guests and vendors.
No. Every Marinaj package includes an event advisor during planning and an experienced event manager on-site for the day of the event. Couples consistently note in reviews that they did not need to hire an outside day-of coordinator because the package already includes support. However, we do recommend a coordinator for weddings.
Yes. Both ballrooms, the Veranda, restrooms, and parking areas are wheelchair accessible.
A signed contract and an initial deposit reserve your date. Subsequent payments are spaced through the planning timeline, with the final balance due 10 days leading up to the event. Your event advisor will walk you through the exact schedule on your contract.
Cancellation terms are outlined in your contract and depend on how far in advance you cancel. Please ask your event advisor for the specific terms before signing.
Yes. We offer private tours by appointment Monday through Thursday from 11 AM to 6 PM, Friday 11 AM to 5 PM, and Saturday and Sunday 10 AM to 4 PM. Schedule at marinajbanquets.com/inquire or call (951) 880 -8067.
Three things: true all-inclusive packages (catering, DJ, lighting, linens, security, and coordination bundled together at a transparent price), two purpose-built ballrooms with Austrian crystal chandeliers, and cultural fluency across South Asian, Middle Eastern, Filipino, and Latin American wedding traditions — all delivered at Inland Empire pricing rather than coastal Los Angeles pricing.
