Mission Trails Regional Park Foundation 

5.0

San Diego, CA
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

The 14,000-square-foot Mission Trails Regional Park Visitor and Interpretive Center is a stunning venue for weddings. Located in the heart of the park and just 10 miles from downtown San Diego, the facility boasts award-winning architectural design and a panoramic view of the park's peaks and mountain ridges as well as a unique view of the San Diego River running through Mission Gorge that is accentuated by gorgeous sunsets.

We were thrilled to host our wedding ceremony and reception at Mission Trails Regional Park with the help of their wonderful Foundation staff. When our original venue unexpectedly canceled, the team at MTRP Foundation jumped in to rescue our date just 6 weeks out. Their communication was clear, helpful and personable every step of the way as we re-planned everything. The park offers stunning views and a gorgeous, natural blank slate for hosting events. We worked closely with the staff on logistics like optimal speaker and processional setup to take advantage of the beautiful landscapes surrounding us. Our guests raved about the views and scenery. We highly recommend Mission Trails for couples seeking a picturesque, affordable and accommodating outdoor venue in San Diego.

La Jolla Woman's Club 

5.0

LA JOLLA, CA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

La Jolla Woman’s Club is located in the heart of La Jolla Village, one block from the ocean. With its exquisite private gardens, historic Irving Gill building and ocean view, the club is a magical setting for any special occasion. The club hosts private events such as weddings, non-profit fundraisers, receptions, lectures, dinners, holiday parties, celebrations of life, retreats and educational meetings.

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!
