We had our cocktail hour and wedding reception at the Portofino Hotel & Marina. There was quite a bit of staff turnover throughout the months during our planning process and we were nervous when our initial catering manager left, but we were so grateful to have Rain who took over as our catering manager and did an excellent job with our wedding reception! Rain stepped in seamlessly and was wonderful to work with. He took the time to understand our vision and provided suggestions to enhance our reception. His professionalism was evident in every interaction, which gave us great peace of mind during the planning process. Rain helped us create special details, like our signature drinks, and included thoughtful touches that really made our wedding day feel extra special. Thank you Rain!! We received numerous compliments from our guests about the delicious food and impeccable service. The venue itself is stunning and we couldn’t have picked a better reception location. I literally gasped when I walked into the ballroom and saw it all come together with the white linens, the gold chivari chairs, the white dance floor, the blue ocean and sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows. It was even more breathtaking as the sun was setting. Our reception was more beautiful than we could have imagined and I’m so glad we chose the Portofino!

Pacific View Tower is a well-oiled machine of elegance and efficiency! From the moment you step into the pretty garden for the ceremony, you're in for a treat. Then, it's up to the penthouse, where the vibe is just as enchanting. As someone who worked as a banquet server here, I can vouch for the staff—total pros who know how to make an event run smoothly. Everyone's in sync, and it shows. If you're looking for a venue that combines beauty with seamless execution, look no further. Pacific View Tower by Wedgewood Weddings is your spot!
