Amazing venue

We had our destination wedding at SDMBR on 7.21.24 and it was absolutely magical. Everything was top tier; the food, drinks, views, and amenities. Most of our guest traveled in from New York and were truly shocked by the beauty of the resort. Both our ceremony and reception were held outside on the grounds of the resort and could not have been more beautiful. Donna made sure our wedding weekend was perfect!

Awesome resort and wedding venue!

I can’t say enough amazing things about San Diego Mission Bay Resort. The resort coordinator, Donna, was a pleasure to work with and she went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding day went smoothly. My wedding guests loved all the amenities offered by the resort. Highly recommended!

e will We will be returning for our 5yr and 10yr anniversaries!

We booked our Sept 2021 wedding originally in Nov 2019 due to COVID. We fell in love with the venue with the beach.
Venue was great with us in downsizing and rescheduling. The resort was renovated, staff was uber friendly and accommodating, everything from handing out all my 120 guests gift bags, to special needs for a 10 piece band! to setting up a UNI (Sea Urchin) STATION and a FRESH COCONUT station!
They made us a custom dessert petit 4s that fit our theme. The venue coordinator Donna has been doing this a long time, she is responsive and was personally there every single event and even rehearsal and took care of every hiccup before they actually occurred.

The went way above and beyond just what their banquet offerings and accommodated ALL my custom orders as we wanted to stand out!
