Catering Sales Manager

I want to send the biggest thank you to Iliana Juarez, San Shultz and all the staff at the Omni that helped make our wedding day more perfect than we thought possible. They took our vision and did what we did not think could be possible. Every aspect of the event from the coordinating with our outside vendors, making sure there was no stress the day of and simply making it the greatest day of our lives. From the gobo, to Chef Michael and staff for an amazing food experience (not just a meal), to making sure it was an absolutely perfect day and we could not sing the praises of the staff more. Thank you for the best day of our lives and all your hard work, truly above and beyond all our expectations.

Magical Experience with The Omni San Diego

The Omni San Diego is the PERFECT PLACE to have a wedding. From the convenient location, staff, and beautiful venue, it made our time spectacular.

We worked with Iliana Juarez, the Catering Sales Manager, who is the sweetest and most helpful. She went above and beyond for about a year to make my day perfect.

Not only is the hotel within minutes of the airport for out of town guests, but it is located right in Gaslamp which is filled with amazing activities for people of all ages.

Not only was Iliana amazing, but so was the rest of the hotel staff. They made sure my guests and I were taken care of during our stay. Especially one of the Bellhop workers named Dave. Everyone who worked at the Omni always put a smile on our face.

Having your wedding at the Omni San Diego is a Magical Experience and we can't thank them enough for an amazing time.

the omni is THE place to have a wedding. we wanted a san diego wedding but did not want people driving a thousand miles to get to the reception once they land. the omni in san diego is right next to the airport and has world class accommodations. The staff was awesome and the food at the wedding was amazing! You definitely need to have your wedding at the omni!

The minute we walked into the Omni and met Julie we knew we wanted to have our wedding there. First, the venue itself is beautiful- very elegant and classy but not stuffy at all. It has a great downtown feel and really shows off San Diego. The ceremony and cocktail hour were out on the 6th floor outdoor pool deck, which has amazing views of downtown. The reception is in a downstairs ballroom, with doors that open to an outside deck so you don’t feel confined to the room. It didn’t have a “hotel” feel at all.

Second, there is Julie herself. She is so professional and competent. From the first time we met with her we felt confident that she would take care of every detail, and we wouldn’t have to worry about a thing. Julie is the Food & Beverage Manager, so her main role is to make sure all the food and drinks come out at the right time throughout the ceremony and reception. She is not a wedding coordinator. Having said that, she went far, far above and beyond her role. She was available for our constant emails and questions. She made sure we thought about details we wouldn’t have considered (like making sure the rented chair covers were the same fabric as the table linens the Omni was providing so everything looked like it matched). She worked with all the vendors to make sure they knew when and where to deliver and set-up and actually interviewed one she wasn’t familiar with. She provided invaluable advice about all things wedding throughout the whole process. Julie has obviously had a lot of experiences with weddings, and she never hesitated to share her opinion or advice when we asked for it. She is very knowledgeable and we definitely appreciated her guidance!

Despite the many, many weddings Julie has put on, she always made us feel like our wedding was the most exciting wedding ever. In the weeks prior to the wedding, she emailed how excited she was and how she couldn’t wait for our big day. She was very genuine in her enthusiasm. Three weeks before the wedding, after one of her emails, I remember thinking, “she has an event every weekend, and probably one this coming weekend. She’s busy. And here she is taking time out of her day to tell us how much she is looking forward to our event. Amazing.” Of course we were excited as the day got closer, and having Julie there encouraging us along the way just made it even more enjoyable.

The day of the event, everything went perfectly. Every space looked beautifully put together, and there were even some extra touches by the Omni that we hadn’t known about in advance. We are sure there was a lot of running around behind the scenes, but Julie and the team took care of everything and we just enjoyed the day. We are so, so happy that we chose the Omni. We could not have imagined a better experience.

The Omni was the perfect ceremony and reception venue. We worked with Ryan Hurd who was awesome. He was always available for us to ask questions and to stop by to view the area to make arrangements. They were flexible and willing to work with us on different ideas and combinations on our wedding package. We were really able to make this our own unique event. Plus the food was delicious! We had the filet and sea bass. I can honestly say we received sooo many compliments on the food. Everyone said this was the best food they've ever had, especially at a wedding. Everything came out on time and was cooked perfectly. The staff were extremely professional. The day couldn't have gone any smoother. Thanks Omni for an amazing event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
