New Venue We Love

So the electric car may have been killed, but documentarian Chris Payne’s new green venue is alive and amazing. The Morroccan-themed Marrakesh House in Culver City offers several unique locations in one great place that allows you to create a different experience for your guests at each turn. Constructed from sustainable & recycled materials, not to mention solar-powered, the space doesn’t sacrifice style for the sake of being eco-friendly.

The central courtyard- aaah, what can I say? Vibrant. Chic. Can you see a wedding ceremony turned dance floor? I can.

Eclectic and beautiful!

The side yard- seats 100 for an intimate dinner and overlooks Culver City from it’s hilltop location.

A lawn with a view

The pool and lemon tree teahouse with it’s recycled tin can “chandelier”. Charming ceremony backdrop? Check. Cool spot for cocktails? You bet. You could even use the yard next to the pool for a small reception or lounge area.

Use a plexiglass pool cover and you've doubled the space size!

Tin can lids as a chandelier- who would thunk it?

So many visions for this location!

Speaking of lounge- check out the awesome interior VIP room. All you need is someone fanning you with palm fronds!

Caution: Hanging in lounge may cause extreme comfort (and a nap!)

With the estate rental, you also have access to the gorgeous interior as well- complete with a professional beauty styling room, and wedding couples can spend the night. There are noise and parking restrictions, but nothing too strict. If you are an eco-minded host or hostess looking for a fabu party space, definitely add this one to your list. You’ll feel transported to another land without ever leaving LA!
