When we were planning our own wedding, we were heartbroken. Every venue saw us as a "transaction," charging exorbitant fees for basic necessities.

"Now, we open our gates to couples who want the fairytale without the financial stress."

San Juan Capistrano, CA

  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $7,000

The traditional Mexican Palenque was an arena that hosted many large parties and even battles that date back to a Mayan civilization that still stands today in Chiapas, Mexico. El Adobe added the Palenque Room to match this Mexican event space concept and host larger parties of its own. Weddings had long since been taking place at El Adobe but with the new Palenque Room and Chapel location in the adjacent Garden, it gave guests a dedicated space to host a grand wedding celebration with up to 250 guests in attendance. One of the most well-known features of this room is the retractable ceiling that opens up almost 40ft across to expose the skies above San Juan Capistrano. The room and its Garden have evolved over time adding a full bar of its own and spacious restrooms to accommodate the larger guest count. However, it still holds its original style and beauty where thousands have come to celebrate their special events and gather their friends and families for an unforgettable night.

Their communication style is attentive and organized, which is so important when coordinating a seamless event. The quality of their work is exceptional - their food is delicious, and the service provided by their wonderful staff is simply incredible. It is so important that I guide my clients to venues that I trust wholeheartedly, and El Adobe is most certainly that!

Booking our wedding with Occasions at Laguna Village was the easiest and best decision we could’ve made! Planning a destination wedding was so seamless because of the all inclusive nature of the venue but also because of their amazing wedding producer Dayna! We had several helpful planning calls with Dayna and she was always so kind and helpful. She gave amazing directions and advice during planning and truly listened to our ideas and vision. On the day of, she and her team executed everything perfectly. I wasn’t stressed or worried on the day of because of her! Working with the provided vendors was a great experience. It was such a stress relief to know they could be trusted and worked at this venue before. We selected Flower Jubilee as our florist and Jean did an amazing job! Her arrangements and execution of our vision was spot on. Rossmoor pastries provided our delicious and beautiful cake and they worked with Dayna for the delivery and setup. Epic 1 DJ kept the party going and everyone got on the dance floor throughout the night. He also did a great job at executing the timeline and kept things running smoothly. Lastly, the catering by the Cliff restaurant was phenomenal. Andrew was so great to work with and really accommodating. During our tasting it was hard to select the meal because everything was so delicious. All of our guests raved about how beautiful and fun the wedding was and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

We’re from Texas and when my son in law’s family (who live in San Clemente) discovered El Caminante, we knew we had found something special. My daughter and her husband got married there in July with about 65 guests, and it was absolutely perfect. We held the ceremony at the Palisades Gazebo above the hotel, and then everyone walked down the hill together to the reception in the back courtyard. With twinkly lights overhead, a dreamy sunset backdrop and the gorgeous architecture all around, every photo looked like a postcard. The food onsite was incredible: fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. We also treated our guests to a food truck one night, which was such a fun surprise. The hotel helped us find an excellent DJ and lighting team to set the perfect vibe and production. All of our guests stayed 2 to 3 nights, and I booked the Hacienda Suite for my daughter which was not only the most gorgeous room I've ever seen but absolutely huge and perfect for getting ready. We loved riding e-bikes, having beach days and relaxing in the luxurious rooms. The Le Labo Santal 33 bath products were divine. We also had late night bonfires on the sundeck and roasted marshmallows under the stars. The next morning many of us joined a yoga class on the property, which was a calm, beautiful way to wind down. The staff was incredible. The sales team always answered our questions, and the general manager and assistant manager checked in regularly to make sure everything was going smoothly. Their attentiveness made a huge difference. The layout and flow of the property made everything feel natural and effortless from ceremony to reception to lodging. I only wish that we had bought out the entire property as it sold out before we had the chance. All-in all we had about 20 of the 30 rooms and it felt like our own private hotel. Anyone that wasn't with our group soon became friends as everyone here was wonderful from the guests to the innkeepers to the gardeners. I loved our experience so much I have already booked a getaway for me and my husband to return and soak it all in again. If you’re looking for a beach wedding that feels intimate, elegant and downright magical, El Caminante is truly it.

We hosted our wedding weekend at Casa Loma Beach Hotel recently, and it exceeded every expectation. With guests flying in from across the country and around the world, we heard nonstop praise about how cozy, elegant, and effortlessly chic the hotel felt (plus the cocktails and cookies were top notch). The staff was incredibly accommodating--helping with porterage, clear communication, and even a few lost-and-found rescues (thank you Amber!). Allene and Elisa were standout stars throughout the weekend helping us host several events at the hotel over three days - and stepping in to address curveballs from vendors and weather. When a once-in-a-blue-moon monsoon forced us to pivot from our planned rooftop events, the Casa Loma team handled the change with grace and creativity, preserving the overall vibe we envisioned. Guests-both locals and out-of-towners-couldn't stop raving about the views and the unbeatable location. Some spent time in the cute nooks and crannies throughout the hotel or relaxed on their balconies with those unmatched ocean views (when the rain finally let up), while others wandered over to Marine Room for late-night drinks thanks to the perfect location. And of course, the food via Sapphire was amazing! We were able to check off all our boxes when it came to cuisine and transport our guests to all ends of the earth with food from the Mediterranean, Malaysia, and South America. The Late Night Bites of sliders, fries and chicken tenders were crowd MVPs at our Afters. Thank you to the entire team for transforming a rained-out wedding weekend into the intimate, romantic wedding of our dreams.
