My Wedding was Perfection

Alyssa Carrigan was our wedding Event Manager and did such an amazing job. We had no issues with this venue and we are both so pleased. Our day was even more magical than we could've ever imagined. I would highly recommend any event here, especially a beach wedding.

Beach Wedding Goals

They are the only Hotel that do a reception right on the sand!! Their Location is great too, being in La Jolla itself is a plus!

Stunning Beach Wedding Venue!

La Jolla Shores Hotel was the perfect venue for our beach wedding vision. We had the ceremony on La Jolla Shores beach. It was the perfect day - the sun was shining and the water was glistening blue and green. Kelly at La Jolla Shores Hotel asked beachgoers to move so as not to block the beach views from our ceremony, and they did! Our cocktail hour was outside on the beautiful Garden Patio and the dinner reception was also outside on the Shores Patio with perfect views of the beach and sunset. Our guests complemented the food - with the lobster ravioli being the fan favorite. Kelly, the venue coordinator, was responsive and easy to work with. If you want a beach wedding in San Diego with the potential for stunning sunset photos, this is the venue for you!

The Shores offers excellent food, terrific service, perfect sand-side setting, and a way to escape the busy beach scene while still getting to share the perfect beachfront for an intimate celebration. We have been enjoying dinners up there for years and are also fortunate to work with their team on a weekly basis by making desserts and special event cakes for weddings, birthdays, and other fun celebrations. GREAT SPOT!
