Perfect Wedding at The Point
We have zero regrets from our decision to get married at The Point. Starting with Kate and the staff to the gorgeous venue and scenery, it honestly couldn't have been any better. This is an AMAZING place to get married.
Kate was nothing short of incredible. She was so friendly, organized, flexible with our schedule and desires, and such a great communicator from start to finish. She helped us with lodging connections to local hotels and even contacted the city for us to see if we could get permitting for a pre-wedding event on a totally separate day. She was a dream! The venue was exactly what we were looking for - casual enough that we could have a fun "cocktail style" wedding with no assigned seats but also fancy and beautiful enough that my wife's vision of her dream wedding could be realized.
We loved that we were able to enjoy a gorgeous outdoor San Diego wedding on the grass overlooking 180 degree views of Mission Bay AND also have an indoor venue intimate enough for speeches and dancing.
To wrap up, our highlights would be the friendly and flexible service, ability to created YOUR dream wedding, and to take advantage of the most beautiful part of San Diego, Mission Bay!
Highly recommend for any soon-to-be-married lovers!

Great Experience
Having our wedding at the point was a great choice, I have no regrets. I liked how they had an outdoor space for guests to take a break, heat lamps and fire pits ready to keep them cozy.
The venue rental includes pretty tables and chairs and are fully flexible on the arrangement of everything.
We had our family and older guests sit for a traditional meal but the other half of guests were set up for a cocktail reception/mixer style with belly bars instead of chairs which allowed us to accommodate more people along with our buffet stations.
The Point wants to be a a more sustainable wedding option by including screens for digital photos, signage, etc which also saves you money from printing things.
The ceilings are vaulted which is beautiful and had a cool chandelier piece.
I hired pipe and drape to be put up around the entire perimeter which added some elegance. The venue allowed indoor cold sparklers which another place we looked at did not but that was one of my favorite features at our wedding.
The team was really helpful and communicative the entire time!
There’s another venue right next door on the bay but I’m really glad we went with the Point

Incredible Wedding at The Point
We had such an incredible time hosting our wedding at The Point, the venue and staff are beyond phenomenal. Everything was offered to us at a reasonable price with the ability of adding any vendor we chose. The full service, venue, location, and outdoor area made our decision incredibly easy. We can't thank them enough for all of their help and support!

Absolutely PERFECT day - we are so grateful
The Point literally gave us the wedding of our dreams! When covid hit, we were so disappointed to have to cancel our wedding plans and had no idea how or when to reschedule them. The Point did an Elopement Package giveaway on Instagram and my wife and I were some of the lucky winners. We will never forget their generosity in a time of worry and uncertainty, and will always recommend them for any type of event. It's a beautiful, dynamic space and the team is dedicated to each event's total success! All we can say is book it - you will not be disappointed. :)

Wonderful Staff & Beautiful Venue!
We had an intimate elopement ceremony and reception at The Point and it was amazing!
There were a lot of people in the area during peak summer hours, but that was not an issue at all. We were easily able to have a secluded ceremony space with the beach as our backdrop. The crowd never bothered or intervened with our event.
We had our reception at the Bay Room/Garden. The venue was able to provide a few decorations for us and it was really beautiful. Even without decorations I feel the interior design and aesthetic of the room & garden is really breath-taking and worth a look!
We only had our parents and siblings celebrating with us, but the space is definitely big enough for large crowds. The Point team members (I mostly spoke with Jenna & Krista) were also really amazing, accommodating, and wonderful to work with. They were very responsive (email, phone, etc.) and were so helpful with planning everything. They also have great connections with local vendors.
I'd definitely recommend this place for any type of major life event - be it a wedding, baby shower, birthday, etc.!
