This review is long overdue as my wedding was in September of 2025, but it is SO warranted! I could not have asked for a better experience than having my wedding at the Presidio Golf Course. Kat and her team were a DREAM to work with. I had no formal planner, and yet, I don't think I needed one due to the amazing help of Kat. We hired her to be our day of coordinator, but truly, she did so much more than this. From the beginning tour, I knew that the Presidio was the right choice (and I toured 20 other venues)! Everything felt so smooth in the lead up, we were given time to come to the venue the day before to practice so we could have our nerves a bit assuaged the day of, and then the wedding day... I truly can say that I would change nothing! The night before the wedding I somehow managed not to sleep at all, and arriving at the venue I was feeling a bit low energy and hungry. Before anything even started, Kat had the head chef make me a bowl of buttered noodles and a coffee, and I knew that I had made the right choice. It comfortably fit our whole guest count which was somewhere in the 160 range and with various packages to choose from, this still felt like an affordable option for the city. The baby Guinness shots, the personal note to congratulate us on being married, the golf cart to sweep us away for pictures in the fog - I don't plan on getting married again, but if I ever need to, the good thing is I won't have to do any planning, because I would choose this venue time and time again. Save yourself the time and energy and stress of finding a venue, and just choose the Presidio and Kat and her team!
