This is the perfect reception venue. Nicola the event coordinator immediately called me after I submitted an inquiry and from then on her communication was amazing. The museum went out of their way (to include leaving up pieces of art that they knew we loved for our reception) to make our day so special. You need very minimum decorations because the art truly shines and the space is beautiful. The building is modern, which allowed for our own creativity like projecting large images on the outside, facing the street. Our guests raved about it and when not dancing or enjoying food were able to wander the galleries and even purchase some art! I was able to create a special space for kids to get creative as well. Of all the venues we toured the museum gave us the most flexibility and options and we’re very gracious about what vendors we could use allowing us to have a truly custom event that represented our lives and relationship. I am so thankful for the staff at OMA for making our experience so exceptional! Not only will you have a unique venue, but your money is going to support the arts and the local community of Oceanside!

My husband and I got married June 2023 at one of their beachfront properties in Lake Elsinore. They made sure the beach looked perfect before our wedding day and it was completely stress free communication with them. Our vendors came and set up with ease and it wowed our guest when they arrived. We had our wedding and reception area on the beach, a bar and lounge area in the courtyard with our 360 Photo Booth setup, and way more parking than we needed. I wish I could go back and experience it all over again. They were affordable and I liked them so much I used another one of their lake venues for my baby shower!

We’re from Texas and when my son in law’s family (who live in San Clemente) discovered El Caminante, we knew we had found something special. My daughter and her husband got married there in July with about 65 guests, and it was absolutely perfect. We held the ceremony at the Palisades Gazebo above the hotel, and then everyone walked down the hill together to the reception in the back courtyard. With twinkly lights overhead, a dreamy sunset backdrop and the gorgeous architecture all around, every photo looked like a postcard. The food onsite was incredible: fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. We also treated our guests to a food truck one night, which was such a fun surprise. The hotel helped us find an excellent DJ and lighting team to set the perfect vibe and production. All of our guests stayed 2 to 3 nights, and I booked the Hacienda Suite for my daughter which was not only the most gorgeous room I've ever seen but absolutely huge and perfect for getting ready. We loved riding e-bikes, having beach days and relaxing in the luxurious rooms. The Le Labo Santal 33 bath products were divine. We also had late night bonfires on the sundeck and roasted marshmallows under the stars. The next morning many of us joined a yoga class on the property, which was a calm, beautiful way to wind down. The staff was incredible. The sales team always answered our questions, and the general manager and assistant manager checked in regularly to make sure everything was going smoothly. Their attentiveness made a huge difference. The layout and flow of the property made everything feel natural and effortless from ceremony to reception to lodging. I only wish that we had bought out the entire property as it sold out before we had the chance. All-in all we had about 20 of the 30 rooms and it felt like our own private hotel. Anyone that wasn't with our group soon became friends as everyone here was wonderful from the guests to the innkeepers to the gardeners. I loved our experience so much I have already booked a getaway for me and my husband to return and soak it all in again. If you’re looking for a beach wedding that feels intimate, elegant and downright magical, El Caminante is truly it.

We loved having our wedding at the La Jolla Woman's Club. The venue was very prompt and easy to communicate with during the planning process, which helped make things stress-free. The space itself is clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained - perfect for both our ceremony and reception. A highlight was using their grand piano on stage during our mother daughter dance.

The venue has a HUGE amount of space inside and out—in addition to the main indoor-outdoor area, there’s a getting-ready room upstairs, a fully functional kitchen for any catering needs, plenty of parking, and a beautiful outdoor deck. The staff is easy to work with and very relaxed, which was such a pleasant change from other venues that insist on monitoring your every move. Getting to access the venue for three days for set-up and tear-down was also a game-changer. And finally, all of these amenities—including tables and chairs—came at a seriously amazing price. Bottom line: if you want a stress-free, beautiful space to host a wedding or a reception, book the Ole Firehouse ASAP! We feel so fortunate that we were able to celebrate our special day in this one-of-a-kind venue.

Indoor Venue with Stunning Views: One of the standout features of this venue is the breathtaking floor-to-ceiling windows. The view of the harbor is absolutely gorgeous, especially with the lighting around the windows. It made an unforgettable backdrop during both our ceremony and reception. Having an indoor venue put my mind at ease, no need to worry about the weather! Helpful and Professional Staff: The staff here went above and beyond to make our day as stress-free as possible. They were always available for questions and offered valuable suggestions when we needed them. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and you could tell they were genuinely invested in making our wedding perfect. Affordable Pricing: We were blown away by how reasonably priced Harborside Grand Ballroom is compared to other venues in the area, especially considering the stunning views and the level of service we received. They offer a range of packages to suit different budgets, and we felt like we got incredible value for what we paid. One Helpful Tip: Talk to the venue staff about parking solutions for the day of your wedding. Parking can be difficult depending on the season and it is good to have a plan for guests. If you're looking for a stunning indoor venue with exceptional service, a gorgeous view, and affordable pricing, look no further than Harborside Grand Ballroom. We couldn’t have asked for a better location to celebrate our special day!
