Let Those Wedding Bells Ring…
The question has been popped, and now you’re ready to plan the wedding of your dreams. But arranging all that is needed to make your dream wedding a reality can be overwhelming. From the venue to the caterer to the florist to the DJ—deciding on each vendor can make or break your big day. Luckily for San Diego couples, there are plenty of talented vendors ready to make your wedding—no matter how big or detailed—an stress-free success. Walk down the aisle with us as we help you plan your ever after.
Where To Say ‘I Do’…
There’s a reason why couples from throughout the world come to San Diego to say “I do.” From the beachside resorts to the mountaintops of Julian to the swanky downtown, there’s a venue to suit the wishes of any couple. Even better, San Diego averages at least 200 sunny days per year, giving lovebirds the option to marry outdoors in gorgeous weather.
If you’re dreaming of an oceanfront setting, there are an assortment of options up and down the coastline. You can choose a classic beach scene in Coronado, extravagance in La Jolla, a boho setting in Encinitas, or a modern vibe in Carlsbad. Many San Diego beaches are home to a variety of hotels, from five to three stars, giving couples the choice to have a ceremony outside and reception inside, all within budget.
Perhaps the rustic outdoors is more up your alley—which San Diego County’s venues can also deliver with farmhouse options in San Marcos and Carlsbad, highlands in Fallbrook and Ramona, or ranches in East County.
Looking for the privacy and stillness of San Diego’s desert? Make “I do” happen in Borrego Springs where many couples have had charming, intimate weddings under the warm sun.
Perhaps, you enjoy all that is contemporary including downtown skyscrapers, dazzling lights, and world-famous art galleries. Downtown San Diego, Balboa Park, and La Jolla can deliver those modern-chic weddings with museums, warehouses, and historic buildings at all sizes and budgets.
The Venue…
THE LOT
You and your partner are the stars of the day —and The LOT knows that. Forget the traditional venue, and indulge in this modern La Jolla cinema that can make any wedding an Oscar winner. Couples can expect a contemporary setting beautifully decorated with greens, thoughtful lighting, and plenty of space both indoors and outdoors. An in-house team completes the package with live music options, exquisite cuisines, and more.
