We had a brunch wedding on the lawn and reception on the terrace overlooking the ocean. The venue was beautiful and our guests said the brunch wedding was the best idea! Robin and her team made everything so simple! I had (almost) no stress planning here! Choose this venue... have a brunch wedding... you won't regret it! (The food was also TOP NOTCH) guests thought we paid a fortune! (We didn't!)

Sarah was extremely helpful and very accommodating. She went above and beyond to make sure that everything ran smoothly so that we would have the wedding of our dreams. Any time we had a question or needed to talk she would get back to us immediately. The Hotel was absolutely beautiful. We were able to get married outside over looking the ocean and had our reception in the beautiful Sunset Terrace. All of the hotel rooms are very clean and comfortable especially the suit we stayed in. We can't say enough great things about Sarah and the Hotel!

Our guests had such a lovely time at the Carlsbad Inn! And the ceremony went without a hitch - thanks especially to our wedding coordinator. My husband and I could not be happier!

The venue was absolutely beautiful, and all the services we received at the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort were superb. Everything was accomplished in a timely manner. I could not have hoped for a better place to marry my best friend.

We didn't have an actual traditional wedding here. We had a "marriage celebration" at the Sunset Terrace. I want you all to know that it was one of the best days of my life!

My husband and I were surrounded by our loved ones, and also surrounded by the most beautiful, sunny, summer-y Carlsbad day. It was such a great feeling to have the entire room--outside and inside--to us! And to us only!

Everything was perfect. The staff helped us with everything we needed.

If you are looking for a very romantic and not overpriced venue Carlsbad Inn is the place. It is in the perfect location. There are so many options to have a rehearsal dinner. We did ours at Norte Mexican restaurant which is right next to the Carlsbad Inn. Just steps away from the beach perfect view of the Ocean during the ceremony. Most amazing views from the Sunset Terrace for an evening wedding. Everyone that attended our weddings loved the venue! The hotel is absolutely beautiful. Cassie Brady the hotel's wedding coordinator is so amazing she will help you any way possible. I know at times she was probably sick of my many questions and request. But never once did she come across that I was being a pain. It was the most perfect setting I couldn't have dreamed of a better location. The allow you to bring in your owe food and liquor which is a money saver. Also they don't get you and your guest with the overpriced parking every other hotel gets you with. Can't wait to go back for our 1 year wedding anniversary.
