No wedding weekend is complete without a rehearsal dinner or farewell brunch, partnering with our famed BALEENkitchen or with one of our marina boats to complete the seaside experience. Additionally, we offer private changing rooms for each of your wedding parties to start the days’ festivities over champagne and brunch or perhaps bourbon and burgers.
We are happy to assist with room blocks for you and your out of town guests for the full destination wedding experience. Each room has been newly remodeled with luxuriously appointed amenities and each with private balconies onto the harbor or marina. Our Dockside Adventure Center also offers bicycle, paddle board and kayak rentals along with seasonal whale watching, fishing excursions and many more opportunities to share what you love most about SoCal with your visiting guests.
