Malibu Farm may be the best new venue in San Diego! From the location to the farm to table restaurant we were blown away with the attention to detail. The staff was welcoming and was amazing to see the culinary experience behind the large glass windows. We are so excited for the ceremony space looking out at The Coronado Bridge.

Our wedding was a dream and there is nothing we would have done differently. The venue, decor, and atmosphere provided by the Wedgewood team felt perfect and personal. We are especially thankful to our coordinator Katey, who made us feel welcome and taken care of. She truly went above and beyond for us and we couldn't have imagined a better person to be our coordinator. Our banquet captain, Christina, was lovely and it meant a lot that she constantly came to check on us throughout the night and made sure we had everything we needed. We also want to thank Andrea, our DJ, who helped us modify our timeline on the fly when we were running a bit late and was right on point with our music. One of the most special moments was our private dance at the very end of the night. Andrea played our song and then both she and the Wedgewood staff turned away and let us have the moment completely to ourselves. It was a moment I will never forget and I'm so thankful that we stumbled across Canopy Grove and decided to tour the venue (in fact, it was the only wedding venue we toured because we knew right away). We are eternally grateful and Canopy Grove will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you!

Circle Oak Ranch isn’t just a venue—it’s a family that genuinely cares about its couples. The moment my now husband and I stepped onto the property, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding, it felt like home! The magic of Circle Oak isn’t just in the breathtaking venue; it’s in the people who make it so special. The team’s professionalism, warmth, and genuine care were evident from day one, and it was their support that made our experience truly exceptional. Our wedding day was nothing short of magical. The attention to detail was extraordinary, and it was the little things that made the day run so smoothly. From the ceremony to the reception, every moment was executed perfectly. Our guests continue to rave about how much they loved our venue and our wedding! A special shout-out to our wedding coordinator, Kendra. Kendra guided us through every event of the day with such grace and always seemed to know exactly what we needed, even before we did! As a bride, the emotional rollercoaster was real, but Kendra kept me grounded and helped me enjoy every moment to the fullest. Her support didn’t just ensure our wedding ran smoothly; it made me, my husband, our bridal party, and our families feel truly cared for! To everyone at Circle Oak Ranch, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding day a dream come true. We will forever be grateful for everything you did to turn our vision into reality. Our wedding day was perfect! Photos: Stevie Dee Photography
