My husband and I love our wedding venue, The Sanctuary. We were lost when we first started wedding planning because we had no direction. After attending an open house at The Sanctuary, we met Mason who helped us build a package for our big day. We picked out every detail and made our vision come to life. They also connected us to their vendors who were a pleasure to work with. Lastly, the venue itself is beautiful. The cathedral and courtyard were perfect for our photos. The dining hall was just as beautiful and charming. Our guests kept complimenting how elegant everything was. I highly recommend booking this venue.

There isn't enough words in the world to express how absolutely amazing our experience was here at the Portofino. Ever since I was young, I always knew I wanted a beautiful oceanfront wedding, and Portofino completely delivered that and MORE. Everything throughout my wedding planning process was sooo smooth thanks to Rain, aka their most amazing wedding coordinator ever (give that man a raise!!! 3 ). Seriously -- I had 5 months to get everything done for my wedding, and there were points throughout the process where I was questioning myself and whether I should've been *more* stressed than what it was because Rain was always so communicative and helpful. You always hear stories about how the stress gets to you during the wedding planning stages, but I was fortunate to not experience nearly any stress at all and honestly had so much fun throughout the whole planning process! The staff was also just amazing during the cocktail hour and reception as well -- all of our friends and family expressed how impressed they were by everyone's attentiveness, professionalism, and friendliness. They were especially attentive to my new husband and I, and none of that went unnoticed!! Our day was literally so perfect from top to bottom. Not to mention the gorgeous complimentary room we got as the newly weds. We definitely plan to come back many more times in the future to book staycations at the hotel. 10s across the board!!! I will continually recommend this hotel to all my friends and family :)
