I got married at the Coronado Island Marriott in April 2023. It was the most magical weekend of my life! It was an Indian wedding - 300 guests and had events both Friday and Saturday (3 events total), all held at the Coronado Island Marriott. The views from the wedding site are stunning - you get the water and downtown skyline as your backdrop, and people were stunned. One of our events (Sangeet - Friday night) was at the hotel's Skyline Terrace, and the sunset hitting downtown and the lights in the night were breathtaking. You also get a view of the Coronado bridge. Everywhere you go, there are views. Our guests were raving all weekend about the accommodations. The hotel boasts the biggest hotel rooms in San Diego, and they did not disappoint. They were extremely clean and modern. The biggest bonus was the hotel wasn't huge to where people felt overwhelmed walking from one side to another. It was intimate while still being spacious, and you got the vibe it was my wedding wherever you went in the hotel. The hotel is super close to the ferry to downtown, so when people had free time, some of them would go downtown for food or site-seeing, and come back. It was super easy. The hotel has a spa as well (my husband and I got a couples massage the day after the wedding), which is so tidy and relaxing as well. There's a park nearby, and flamingos on site which I know a lot of the kids loved watching. The Coronado Beach is a 10 min drive (which is where we got some of our wedding pictures done), and a few people spend time there. The hotel also has a wonderful/spacious pool area, which a lot of my friends used. There are also a lot of restaurants walking distance from the hotel, which was nice since each of the families had welcome dinners at separate places - guests didn't have to worry about ubering or walking far distances. There's something for everyone to do/see during down time at or near the hotel. The hotel at the restaurant is called Albaca, and served up some delicious food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all great), and cocktails. My husband loved Albaca's spicy margarita so much when we visited one time, that he decided to make it his signature drink! I know a lot of guests spent time there hanging out. I have to give a shoutout to Kheshini over at the Marriott (Director of Event Planning) who was with us every step of the way - from site tours, to signing, to helping us plan the event, to being there when it all came together. Even if we visited the Marriott unannounced and we let her know we were in town, she'd go out of our way to say hi. She is so friendly, and just the person you'd want helping run your event. She worked with us to try to get everything we wanted, and to make sure that we were happy (ex. I wanted a very specific watermelon vodka for my signature drink, and Kheshini made sure that they were able to find it and order it in time). She was also extremely patient with the questions that came from our parents (which was a lot!). If you're considering booking the Coronado Island Marriott as a wedding venue, I 10/10 would recommend to anyone. You will not be disappointed, and I felt like a princess the entire weekend. Everyone there is extremely polite and accommodating, and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and happy on the most important weekend of my life thus far.

From our first conversation, the team at Bramble Bay Venue made planning stress free with their transparent communication and quick responses to every question we had. They worked seamlessly with our vendors and never made us feel rushed or complicated the process. The sunset view from the ceremony space was unmatched and the market lights strung throughout the property created the perfect ambiance for our reception. The indoor outdoor layout kept our guests mingling and dancing all night long and the pricing was refreshingly honest with no hidden fees. We got an incredible venue with an amazing view without breaking the bank. They included the tables and chairs which really alleviated a lot of added costs and prevented me from needing to hire another company. We can't recommend Bramble Bay Venue enough to couples looking for a beautiful space with and incredible staff that guides you throughout the entire process and really brings your vision to life.

Kona Kai San Diego Resort was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the moment we started working with Stephanie and her team, their communication was prompt, and they were always excited and warm. They were so helpful in bringing our vision to life, and everything turned out even more stunning, magical and unique than we could have imagined. Stephanie was a godsend - she was so easy to work with, and helped mitigate every fear I had, talking me off the ledge several times with her warmth and friendliness. My family loved staying at the beautiful hotel, and it was the perfect setting for our out-of-town guests. Thanks to Stephanie and her amazing team, our wedding day was truly magical.

We absolutely loved working with the team at the Lane and the venue is incredible. Our vision was to have a modern, glam downtown wedding and our venue was exactly that. We especially loved how customizable the venue is and were able to consider several different layout options. Their required and recommended vendor list is top notch and made it easy to make decisions. There are limited options for taking photos, but the skyline backdrop was so unique and stunning. It was also great to have several hotel options within walking distance.

Personal Touch Dining, especially Daisy Ochoa and Hannah Adams, were truly phenomenal. Daisy was our main point of contact and an absolute professional. From the start, she gave us so much confidence. She guided us through every step with patience, clarity, and kindness, answering all our questions and handling our spreadsheets and details with ease. Hannah kept all our scheduling and logistics perfectly organized and was always incredibly responsive. Their resources, timelines, suggestions, and regular check-ins kept us on track and completely stress-free. Before the wedding, they coordinated our rehearsal, food tasting, meal selections, dessert orders, and our request for bilingual bartender and waitstaff, which meant so much to us and our families. Our production meeting with Daisy was especially helpful; she walked us through every detail, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure nothing was overlooked. On the wedding day, Daisy was so kind and attentive. She made sure we were fed, taken care of, and stayed on schedule. The team's help with setup and decor was outstanding. They brought our vision to life beautifully and handled every detail so we did not have to worry about a thing. We are incredibly grateful for their hard work and could not have asked for a better team. Personal Touch Dining, Daisy, and Hannah made our wedding seamless, joyful, and unforgettable.

They accommodated us and we had the ceremony outside on their property since there were no permits available for the grass area nearby.

We truly do not have enough words to describe how perfect our wedding was at La Jolla Cove Rooftop. We chose this venue for two reasons: the breathtaking ocean views and Elizabeth. From our very first meeting, Elizabeth understood our vision perfectly. Elizabeth and her team were always just a text or call away, making the entire planning process stress-free. On the day of, the Wedgewood Events team was a well-oiled machine. Elizabeth was so organized, keeping in constant contact with our wedding party so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our guests haven't stopped raving about how helpful and professional the waitstaff and service were. Huge thanks to Rhys (DJ) for keeping the energy up, Kevin for the incredible saxophone performance, and Moments in Bloom and Nicole Love for the stunning florals.

The beautiful garden and excellent up-keep of the clubhouse really elevated our budget wedding. Not to mention the views are incredible! We had our wedding early July, and the weather was phenomenal - the skies were clear and there was just enough breeze to cool down from the sun. And of course, shoutout to Chris who was so awesome to work with. He was so responsive and incredibly professional. You can tell his passion for The Thursday Club immediately by the way he conducts himself and pours his love into maintaining the club. He also had great vendor recommendations and connected us with Courtney from Breezy Day to help coordinate our wedding (she was incredible as well). 10/10, would recommend!

Rose Creek Cottage 1900 was the perfect venue for our wedding day. The staff was very responsive and timely in all of their communication, which helped make the planning process stress-free. The church, reception hall, and grounds were all beautifully maintained and provided a wonderful setting for our celebration. Our wedding planner, Liztiza, was incredible and took care of all the details, allowing my husband and I to just enjoy the day. We would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a gorgeous, great value option for their special day.

Bella Luna was a fantastic venue to host our pre-wedding party! John and I were married in Tuscany and many of our friends were unable to travel and attend our ceremony. We hosted a pre-wedding party on Bella Luna and invited all those who couldn't attend the wedding. All of our guests had an amazing time and are still talking about it. Bella Luna is the perfect venue that kept our party moving throughout San Diego Bay with a great sound system, lights on the boat, and watching the city skyline light up the night!

Ocean Oasis #1 was the perfect venue for our pre wedding days. The host, especially Victoria, was incredibly responsive, quick, and polite in all of our communications leading up to the big day. The venue itself was gorgeous, spacious, and beautifully updated, providing the ideal backdrop for our special celebration. We loved that the location provided easy access to both the beach and the bay, and being able to enjoy brunch at Molly's the next morning was an added bonus. Victoria went above and beyond to provide us with countless recommendations and made us feel truly special throughout the entire process. We couldn't have asked for a better pre wedding venue experience.
