One of the featured places to get married in San Diego is Balboa Park Club. Balboa Park Club is a historical building built in 1915. Though it was built in 1915, the Balboa Park Club was renovated and expanded in 1935 to feature two main areas, the Santa Fe Room and the Ballroom. During the 1935 renovation, a stunning fountain and beautiful mural were added to the building’s grand foyer. The Santa Fe Room can accommodate up to 80 people for a banquet and 120 for a meeting and can be setup to reflect your exact needs. The Ballroom features more than 13,000 square feet of uninterrupted wood dance floor, ideal for your reception. Have your San Diego wedding photographer snap shots of the guests outside by the awe-inspiring fountain or on any of the 1,200-acre sprawling park that features lavish gardens.
Should you want to have your wedding somewhere even more historic, the Abbey on Fifth Avenue is a gem in downtown San Diego. This historic landmark was built in 1910 featuring Spanish Colonial Revival architecture complete with hundreds of stained glass windows. Originally a church, a 1984 restoration transformed it into the namesake restaurant “The Abbey.” The Abbey’s dramatic, elegant décor is fit for any wedding, providing an epic backdrop for your San Diego wedding photographer. Between the 50-foot ceilings, orange-yellow hand-blown glass fixtures and curved balconies, The Abbey is truly stunning. Specifically catering to weddings, The Abbey has ceremonies in the former pulpit area and the entire space can accommodate up to 300 people. From the ceremony to the reception, The Abbey is a full-service experience complete with a full-time wedding coordinator should you require this service. Have your unique and truly striking wedding at The Abbey for an event everyone is sure to remember. For more information about having your wedding or reception at The Abbey, visit their website.
