Andrade Wedding!

Brianna, Corina, Katey & Sammy were amazing! Me & my now, husband were so thankful for all of the amazing support provided by them and all the Wedgewood team. Since the beginning of our adventure in finding a venue, we knew it would be the perfect place! It was the first place we visited, and four venue hunts later, it was the one we chose! First of all, the team is so kind and helpful. Second, the bridal suite is amazing and so many other venues lacked this option. Also, the hotel being next to it is a plus as well as being able to get a group discount for our wedding party. There was a surplus of benefits found with Wedgewood and we did not regret our choice one bit. Then the day of our wedding, there were no errors. Everything went perfect!!! People were in awe of how organized everything was & how beautiful. My husband and I truly couldn't have pictured a better wedding venue & if I could do it all again I'd always choose Wedgewood! Also - their banquet team is great! Their vendors are amazing and the food is delicious!

Our dream wedding!

We can't thank the team at The Windmill enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the moment we began planning, every interaction with the team at The Windmill was filled with genuine care and excitement for our special day. Their attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond truly set them apart.

A special shoutout to Sammy and Katey, who were our wedding coordinators. They worked tirelessly to ensure that every aspect of our decor was flawlessly arranged, paying meticulous attention to every detail. Their dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Kelly, our banquet captain, was exceptional. She went above and beyond to ensure that my wife and I had everything we needed throughout the night, checking on us regularly and ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Our bartender Julie, was so sweet and attentive! And the drinks were delicious.

Every meeting, every phone call, and every interaction with the team at The Windmill was filled with warmth and professionalism. They truly exceeded our expectations in every way possible.

Thank you, Sammy, Katey, Kelly, Corina, Brianna and everyone at The Windmill, for making our wedding day so perfect. We are incredibly grateful for everything you did to make our day unforgettable.

Truly the best experience!!

Working with the Wedgewood team was AMAZING. They took care of so much of the wedding planning details and the hassle that my fiancé and I were able to enjoy some of the DIY stuff that we probably wouldn’t have been able to do otherwise. They have different packages and add ons you can do, but generally they include centerpieces, florals, a wedding planner, day of coordinator, a DJ, officiant services, liability insurance, setup/cleanup and the wedding cake too. The add ons and some upgrades (I.e. out of season flowers, specialty cake flavors) will be at an added cost, but the cost of our wedding in total even with the upgrades we got was still way more affordable than any other wedding venue options we found. And the venue at Carlsbad was GORGEOUS.

The entire team was amazing, and Brianna ended up being our day of coordinator! She was so sweet, personable and professional. Even when she wasn’t available the rest of the team were always super responsive and communicative. We had the best wedding ever and it was truly thanks to them. Their contracted vendors were amazing too, we loved G our DJ and Tara our florist - both were so sweet, considerate, efficient and did absolutely amazing jobs in making our vision for our wedding happen. They all did. Thank you gals at Wedgewood we love you!!!!
