Cal Aero Events: A Unique Venue for Weddings and Celebrations
If you’re searching for a one-of-a-kind venue that blends history, elegance, and versatility, Cal Aero Events in Chino is the perfect destination. This extraordinary 5,000-square-foot hangar offers a stunning backdrop for weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, and countless other celebrations.
Located at the Cal Aero Aviation Country Club, this venue stands out as one of the most unique event spaces in Southern California. Unlike traditional ballrooms or banquet halls, Cal Aero’s event space transports guests back in time with its vintage aviation-inspired architecture and décor. Designed with an open-air hangar layout, the space reflects the “Golden Era” of aviation, creating an atmosphere that is both timeless and sophisticated.
A recent wedding at Cal Aero Events was nothing short of unforgettable, with Summit Event Catering delivering a menu that wowed every guest from start to finish. Guests began the evening with an impressive spread of appetizers, from crispy coconut shrimp with tangerine mustard sauce to refreshing watermelon caprese skewers, zesty mango ceviche tostadas, and a decadent fig flatbread topped with pear, blue cheese, fontina, prosciutto, and arugula. For a savory surprise, servers passed thick-cut strips of bacon, which quickly became a crowd favorite. Dinner opened with a vibrant roasted beet salad, setting the stage for a trio of expertly crafted entrées - tender short ribs finished with black peppercorn demi-glace, flavorful Madeira chicken, and a comforting mushroom risotto served with a portabello cap for a vegetarian option. Creamy garlic mashed potatoes and green beans completed the plates, leaving guests delighted and satisfied as they danced the night away and enjoyed wedding cake for dessert.
Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by gleaming vintage planes, or dancing the night away beneath vaulted hangar ceilings that echo with history. Whether you are hosting a romantic wedding reception or a lively milestone celebration, this venue’s architecture and vintage décor provide a stylish canvas to bring your vision to life. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Cal Aero Events is also prized for its flexibility. The expansive hangar space can be transformed to suit intimate gatherings or large-scale celebrations, with indoor and outdoor spaces available. Conveniently accessible from Los Angeles, Orange County, and the Inland Empire, Cal Aero offers the perfect central hub for guests traveling from near and far. Its blend of accessibility and exclusivity makes it a hidden gem in Southern California’s event scene.
When you choose Cal Aero Events, you’re not just booking a venue—you’re creating an experience. Whether you’re planning a wedding filled with romance, a corporate event that inspires, or a family celebration that brings generations together, Cal Aero Events is a venue that soars above the rest.
