“ Mission Trails Regional Park Visitor Center is the best kept secret and absolute jewel of a location for an event. I had my wedding here and you have access to the whole building, terrace, movie theater and amphitheater. It was a JOY working with Janet (operations manager). Perfect venue for amazing views and unique setting great for nature lovers. Maybe the best part is that what you pay to rent the facility goes to the MTRP Foundation to support the park- it's like making a donation! We loved that so much. Thank you for a beautiful venue for our wedding- …”

“ We hosted our daughter’s wedding last weekend. The venue is literally the perfect setting for a wedding and we received exuberant praise all evening for how beautifully magical everything was.
I believe that our event was their largest to date (240), which meant that we had to split the ceremony and reception between the lower and upper gardens. Initially, we were concerned about having to make our guests trek from bottom to the top gardens (or take the provided shuttle), but this provided the guests with a charming walk through the gardens to gain an added element of beauty to …”

“ We had our wedding anniversary at the Prado and it was the dream celebration I wished I'd had for our wedding! FIrst off, the options we were offered for food choices was over the top. Everyone was so accomodating helping us with things. The day of, I felt like a Queen! I never lifted a finger- the staff always made sure I had a drink in my hand, and each time I got up from my chair, I came back to a seat with fresh a fresh napkin. The wait staff is so professional- they are there but not in …”

“ 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 …”

“ BRICK was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first contacted them, the team was incredibly responsive, helpful, and attentive to our needs. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, even helping with my dress and veil train on the day of the wedding. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful - classic and elegant with a spacious layout that accommodated all of our guests comfortably. We couldn't have asked for a better value or a more wonderful experience working with the BRICK team to bring our wedding vision to …”

“ We chose Building 177 for our wedding because we wanted a blank canvas that fit our minimal, modern aesthetic. I still remember the way my eyes lit up when we first saw it in person—my husband reminds me of it to this day. The venue itself is stunning, with gorgeous lighting and beautiful surrounding areas for photos, making it easy to bring our vision to life.
Now, onto the team. From the moment we toured to the very end of our event, everyone was incredibly helpful. Without a planner, I truly appreciated Dayna’s guidance—she made the planning process so much smoother …”

“ 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 …”

“ Choosing Flora as our venue was by far one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We initially had viewed other downtown San Diego locations and just happened to find them and get them on the schedule, and it was absolutely the right decision. Full disclosure up front, they do have a relatively strict contract regarding the rules and regulations of the venue. With that being said, their team was incredibly open and responsive in having conversations about the contract, and personalized it when we identified some very specific circumstances as it related to us. Due to a …”
