Such an amazing experience working with Wedgewood weddings. I love that they have many different venue options to fit every couple's price point and that it is an all inclusive option. The only things not included were the dress/tux (obviously) and any photography or videography. We however ended up spending a bit more on flowers as we didn't realize that the bouquet and flowers for the bridal party were not included (only table centerpieces) but compared to other florists in the area, their vendor still had the best prices. The process of the planning was pretty seamless. Whenever I had a question or needed help, I was able to reach out to the venue and get the answers or help needed. The day of my wedding was absolutely perfect. Not a single thing went wrong and I couldn't be more grateful for my two wedding coordinators that day (the evening coordinator had a different title but can't remember what it was) but they were both so helpful, kind and attentive. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day and/or experience!

Although our wedding hasn’t happened yet, we couldn’t wait to share how thrilled we’ve been with our experience so far with The Headquarters! From the very beginning, the team has been phenomenal, Taylor and Janae’s professionalism and communication has made the entire process smooth and stress-free thus far. A special shoutout to Taylor, who played a huge role in helping us feel confident about booking a venue still under renovation. Her years of experience with Wedgewood and new venue openings reassured us that their blueprints and mock-ups are always spot-on with the final product—and it’s easy to see that this space is going to be stunning. We were specifically looking for a venue that felt unique and special, something fresh that none of our friends or family had used before. Choosing The Headquarters was a leap of faith, but the team’s attention to detail and their ability to keep us in the loop has us beyond excited for our big day. If you’re considering booking a new venue, don’t hesitate—Taylor, Janae, and the team at The Headquarters will make the process seamless.

My husband and I got married here in November 2023 and it was a truly incredible experience. I feel like the La Jolla Women’s club is a hidden gem. I had a lot of family and friends coming from out of town and La Jolla is a great part of San Diego for them to come to and stay for the weekend. The venue is close to everything and has a beautiful charm. It is simple and elegant, allowing us to dress it up as we wanted. Our photographer was able to get some incredible photos because the venue has so many nooks and crannies with slightly different feels. The front lawn in particular, has a gorgeous tree (we got married in front of it) and a beautiful fountain in the other end. There are courtyards on either aide of the main building and then the dance floor/dinning room is in the main building. One of the things that is so great about it is that your guests can come to one venue and experience the whole wedding event, just moving around the venue. Also we had a lot of choice about where things happened (the ceremony in front of the tree and our cocktail hour in a specific courtyard). We chose to do dinner inside, but outside could have been an option. Erin, the Events Manager is great to work with! Communicative and provided us solid recommendations for other vendors. I would love to see other people I know get married here!

As someone who works weddings every weekend, it was surreal to finally be on the other side and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience than with Flora The Venue. I might be a little biased, but the coordination team is genuinely top-tier. A huge thank you to Jameson, Jade, Ash, Angie, and Adam for making my husband and myself feel so supported and celebrated every step of the way. Most of all, I’m so grateful to Katherine, Flora’s owner, for her constant support, guidance, and generosity throughout the planning process.

The venue itself is beautiful and provides a perfect romantic setting for an outdoor wedding. Planning a wedding this year during COVID was nothing short of difficult but Jennifer and the whole event planning staff were so helpful and understanding throughout the whole planning process and really made planning this wedding and keeping our original date so easy. Jennifer constantly kept us updated on the current status of the hotel and was amazing at relaying information related to closures and events to us. She was knowledgeable about the restrictions and helped us plan for a day that was not only perfect in every way but also provided safety to our guests. It was a pleasure having our wedding at such a beautiful location and we were so pleased with how it all turned out and the responsiveness of the staff. There were a number of last minute challenges that made our planning stressful, it was worth every stress and the staff at the Horton Grand Hotel helped us through every set back allowing us to fully enjoy our day.

We loved having our wedding reception at the museum! It was a unique venue, bright, and spacious. It’s an experience we (and our guests) still talk about almost 6 years later. It was a stress free wedding as Jenny (venue coordinator) was so easy to work with and very helpful in coordinating with all of our vendors and day of wedding coordinator. The museum has an approved list of vendors, and made suggestions that made the night even more special (like keeping the dinosaur skeleton out during the reception!) The cocktail hour was held on the second level, and the guests were able to walk through the exhibits. The reception was on the first level which was spacious.

Julep was the perfect sized wedding venue for our guest of 150. We loved that the design of the space was so clean and spacious, it was the perfect blank canvas for our how we wanted to make the space., while still having a character of its own. We also loved that we could hold the ceremony and reception in the same area. We had a number of elderlies in both sides of our families so it was really important to us that they didn't need to be moved from one location to another, and make sure that the space was accessible to them. All the amenities in the venue was great as well! They had plenty of bathroom stalls that were clean and spacious. Their Bridal Room was so cute and comfortable. The patio space was perfect for cocktail hour. Heather and Kirsten were our main point of contacts and they were both so lovely to work with. We really appreciated how organized they were and always being so quick to answer any questions, big or small. They were both so personable and made no questions feel like dumb questions. We really appreciated how organized they were, and how detailed they were in laying out details of our contracts and were so flexible with making any changes. We truly can't recommend Julep enough as a wedding venue.

From the moment I met Marcela, the Handlery coordinator, I knew our experience would be memorable for all the right reasons. She was attentive and patient with all our questions and was quick to get back to our emails. The venue itself is lovely, especially the outdoor wedding gazebo. The reception area perfectly accommodated our guests and the staff were extremely attentive and professional. They worked well with all of our vendors and there were no complications at all. The extra perk of staying in a honeymoon suite as part of the package was a lovely surprise as well. Definitely give them a try.

We had a dance floor, 13 tables (10 seats per table) and wonderful food for all our guests to enjoy. Jasmine met our expectations and then some. As the bride, I had selfish allergy, but the peking duck and steak cubes I had, was amazing. From the amount of guests we had and the feedback we got, everyone LOVED the food. We hope more people give Jasmine a try as their wedding venue. My husband and his family even came back for dinner the next. day and enjoyed the meal immensely.
