Ideal Wedding Venue

We recently got married this past June at Humphreys and the experience was unforgettable. We had searched for countless months all over San Diego County for the best wedding venue to meet our budget, timeline, and large numbers of guests. Humphreys checked all those boxes for us and more. Unlike other venues that wanted to up-charge us with their ridiculous "wedding" fees, Humphreys is based off of reasonable rates and guest count.

Darla was wonderful to work with and accommodated all of our requests. We were able to customize for the event that we wanted. Our guests continue to rave about the delicious food, pretty views, and professional staff.

Being on the concert lawn provided the best atmosphere for us to hire a live band. The big stage and open spaces created the perfect party environment for our 200 guests. We appreciated the ability to start our event early to extend the event and maximize time on the dance floor. We would 100% recommend this venue to any engaged couples!

The Wedding of Our Dreams

We recently held our wedding at the Humphrey’s Half Moon Inn, and it was the most beautiful reception that we could have imagined. We held our reception at the Harborview Room, we had 55 people and we went with their day package. Darla was the Catering and Special Events Manager that was our contact and assisted us with the wedding planning process. Darla had wonderful customer service and met with us several times before the wedding to bring the wedding planner and my dear friend, who was also helping us with décor. To start there are so many beautiful green foliage, there’s the beautiful Marina with the Yachts, and you are also at Shelter Island so you have beautiful shots you can take across the street from the venue with the San Diego Skyline. There was a lot of free parking choices. The linens, napkins and chairs were beautiful. Looking out of the windows into the marina and yachts was breathtaking. You also are able to step out onto the deck. The food was delicious, the hors d’oeuvres, the appetizers, we had the Cesar salad, we went with the Chicken Florentine, and even the rolls were nice and warm for us. The drinks were also very well made. We had a lot of family from out of town, including Mexico City, Canada, Texas, and it was important to provide a special reception for our loved ones. Everyone raved about how beautiful it was. It looked like a million bucks wedding, and it was totally affordable. The server’s and bartenders were also really courteous, most amazing customer service. The venue set everything up. You were able to chose which ever vendor you wanted, which is nice because sometimes you have to go with the required vendors. We had the opportunity to stay overnight as well, and it was such a beautiful room and atmosphere. Family who also stayed in the hotel, stated it was wonderfully situated by the marina and by the airport. The reception ambiance was so light, elegant, and really filled with love. Families even called us architects of wedding planning, but the service and quality of the Humphrey’s Half Moon Inn really had a lot to do with it. We highly, highly, recommend the venue based on the quality and affordability. We truly had the wedding of our dreams.

We used the following vendors, we recommend checking them out:
Wedding Planning- Elizabeth Worrell Weddings and Events
DJ- Desert Music Entertainment
Flowers- Liz Flowers
Cake- Frost Me Café and bakery
Photographer- Naiya Ross Photography (Pls keep in mind, wedding was recent and the pictures included for the reviews are family taken)
Videographer- A Plus Production
