Can’t Thank Harbor View Loft Enough!!
I had my wedding in August and still dreaming about our amazing venue and their staff! Daisy was our coordinator and she went above and beyond for us. Everything went smoothly from start to finish and my wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect. Food was so delicious and was wowed by the amount of options they had! The venue is absolutely gorgeous as we did our ceremony on the rooftop and reception inside. Highly recommend booking your wedding with Harbor View Loft as we had an amazing experience with them. Again, can’t thank the team enough for pulling off a day my husband and I will never forget.-

Can we do it all over again?!
PTD/Harbor View Loft was everything we could have dreamed of and more. From the first conversation through the wedding day itself, Ashley and the team showed incredible professionalism, care, and expertise. We ended up planning our wedding in 90 days (not the original plan, but Ashley made it happen for us!), and they held our hands through every step — from logistics to timelines to all the little questions that come up along the way.
One thing that made them so special was that they gave expert guidance while still making the day feel completely like ours. They made us feel supported, heard, and genuinely cared for, even while navigating family dynamics and all the moving pieces that come with a wedding.
The day itself ran so smoothly and felt so beautiful. As the bride and groom, we were able to be fully present, soak everything in, and enjoy the day in a way we never thought possible with so much going on. We received so many compliments on the venue and the overall flow of the event, and that is a true credit to their team.
We are still so grateful. They are true professionals and made our wedding feel incredibly special from beginning to end. I don't have enough kind things to say to truly capture how grateful we are (,: -

An Amazing Venue!
Harbor View Loft was the perfect venue for our Wedding Welcome Party! We had the pleasure of working with Daisy and Hannah, and they were absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. Both were friendly, professional, organized and had an upbeat energy, making planning feel enjoyable and effortless.
The food was delicious - our guests couldn't stop talking about it! And the service team was equally great - attentive, professional, and friendly.
We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a venue that combines stunning views, excellent food, and a team that cares about making your event perfect, Harbor View Loft is the one for you! -

The best day ever
We had our wedding at Harbor View Loft on April 19, 2025, and it was truly everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the team exceeded our expectations.
The food was absolutely delicious—our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed the dinner and appetizers! Everything was beautifully presented.
Our personal attendants were wonderful…Daisy is the best! She and our day of coordinator were so kind, thoughtful, and on top of every detail. They made sure we were always taken care of, whether it was fixing my veil, bringing us drinks, or checking in throughout the night. Their attention to detail and support made such a difference in helping us enjoy every moment without stress.
Harbor View Loft is not only a beautiful venue with a stunning view, but also a place where you can truly feel confident you’re in good hands. We are so grateful to the entire team for making our wedding day unforgettable.-

Have your event here. No question!
If you are looking at venues for your event that are right on the water, you can't beat Harbor View Loft. The team is thoughtful and attentive and they are fully willing to share their advice and expertise. The venue is flexible and adapts to all kinds of events. And they have preferred vendors already accounted for which makes the planning process a lot easier. Plus, the food is delicious, like elevated crowd pleasers, with lots of options to choose from. If you have your event here, it will be one to remember! -

Seamless wedding day!
We loved having our wedding at Harbor View Loft. The staff was so receptive and responsive during the entire planning process. When the day finally came, everything went so smoothly. The staff catered to our needs and allowed us to simply enjoy the day. When it started raining in the morning, the team quickly moved everything inside without issue. We would highly recommend! -

50th Wedding Anniversary
The venue is beautiful, even when simply decorated, like our event was. Our contact person was excellent, as were the rest of the staff. They were responsive, respectful, helpful and good natured. The food was excellent. We opted for a buffet and everything was hot and well prepared. We had a mix of ages, and our grandchildren and young adults enjoyed the patio. I would highly recommend the Harbor View Loft! -

Amazing wedding day!
Everything went perfect for our wedding day, thanks to Daisy and the team at Personal Touch! We really appreciated the thoughtful care put into our special day. Daisy was incredibly helpful in answering all our questions, we loved working with her. The food from Personal Touch Dining is delicious, and all our guests said they loved it. The venue space was top notch, and a perfect fit for us. We loved the all inclusive wedding packages provided, and it was the best choice we ever made. Thanks again Daisy, you are true wedding professional! -

August Wedding
Daisy and her team were absolutely incredible to make this day happen. They worked closely with my wedding planner and vendors to have everything set up by the time guests arrived. They were also very attentive to the keeping the food fresh and presentable. The open bar was amazing and to this day people were still amazed at the amount of options they had. I highly recommend HVL the price is worth it for what you receive.-

Breathtaking views and delicious food!
A beautiful venue! We recently got married at Harbor View Loft and it was perfect! We had the pleasure of working with Daisy throughout the planning process. Daisy was so kind, always so positive and smiling… the right energy you need when planning a wedding. Daisy and her team were wonderful to work with, such great communication and organization. We loved their tasting event, it really helped visualize what our day could look like. On our wedding day, the Harbor View Loft team did an amazing job. Everything was set up beautifully, dinner service was great, and the bartenders were amazing! Our guests absolutely loved the food and drinks! If you’re looking for a venue that has it all, Harbor View Loft is the answer!-

June wedding in SoCal!
My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better venue or group of people to work with. Our wedding day was practically perfect- a real life fairytale. Everything leading up to the wedding was efficient, professional, and the communication with both Daisy and Artemis in particular was clear and concise everytime. I never felt like I was “asking too many” questions. Whenever I had a question, I was able to email or call them both, and I had answers to my questions very quickly. They made the planning very easy for me and everything was executed perfectly on the day of. All of our family and friends complemented the beauty of the venue and (one of the most important things in my opinion) the food! Even after the wedding, I still receive messages about how incredible the food was at the wedding, how beautiful the venue was, and how all of the staff were kind and accommodating. Family and friends also said it was one of the most organized wedding they have attended and I thank everyone at HVL for that. I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful wedding or wonderful people to work with to execute my dream day.-

Personal Touch was great
We had a beautiful wedding at this venue and with the Personal Touch team. The venue is obviously gorgeous and it shot really well for our ceremony and photographs of the night. We especially liked working with Daisy as she was responsive and communicate throughout the entire process. The day of coordinator, Sam, was also helpful and made all of the logistics we had during the actual wedding day go smoothly. -

An amazing venue for your wedding!!
My now wife and I decided to book with Harbor View Loft after looking at a handful of venues in San Diego. We are so glad we did so! From our first tour, food tasting, and all the way to our actual wedding day, the staff was professional, courteous, and responsive. Huge shout out to our the sales manager Daisy who helped us all along the way. You can't go wrong with Harbor View Loft. -

Amazing/Efficient/Easy Experience
Awesome wedding venue! Best bang for your buck for sure! Daisy was really what sealed the deal for us! She was so helpful from the moment we met her and easy to contact. She made the entire process efficient and not feel so overwhelming. The venue itself is beautiful, it's right over the water. My husband and I got amazing golden hour pictures. The food and bar was excellent!!! I can't recommend Harbor View Loft enough!! If you're looking for over the water view with open bar, great view, awesome vendors at an AFFORDABLE price, then Harbor View is the place!! -

Harbor View Loft is a great place for weddings
The WEDDING on the OUTDOOR TERRACE WAS EPIC thanks to Harbor View Loft. It was a Frabjous choice for us. We were looking for the perfect setting with professional help. We got that from Mgr. Daisy & team members at every step. Most valuable was learning that at HVL weddings have an ALL-INCLUSIVE PRICE- including a cake from one of the finest bakeries in SD- + an onsite reception room & BAR ++ a Day-Of-Coordinator. All with gorgeous views of the Coronado Bridge across the bay and their boat marina. We relied on their list of approved vendors: **DJ - who provided music advice & used our own choices for the prelude, ceremony, buffet dinner and reception. **FLORIST- Helped with choices of colors and flowers keeping our budget in mind & recommended a rental co. for the ceremony arch. **PHOTO BOOTH-Professional/fun. Produced many good photos for us (we provided a few of the props too) **PHOTOGRAPHER-used our own pro (relative) for a small service fee. ** LIMO- found our own for 1hr rate to shuttle guests after the reception to a nearby hotel for after party. This venue is near the airport & hotels for out-of-town guests.

Best Wedding Venue in SD
When looking for a wedding venue in San Diego, I can safely say I reached out to about 100 across the Knot and Wedding Wire to get quotes on pricing. Harbor View Loft was the only venue we toured and immediately booked that day! Not only are the prices extremely reasonable, the people are so kind and highly responsive when communicating. You get everything you want and more! I could not have asked for a better wedding venue. Every single thing we asked for they were able to accommodate with 5 star service. If you are looking for an amazing venue where you can have fun on your wedding day and get some help from their amazing team, I would look no further and book at HVL! -

Harbor View Loft is the perfect venue for an iconic San Diego backdrop
We choose Harbor View Loft because of the stunning views of the harbor and marina. We wanted an iconic San Diego setting for our guests and we also loved that so much came included with their packages, especially having a day-of coordinator. They were so easy to work with as we planned our wedding, very responsive and always prioritized making the most important aspects of our wedding happen. The food, service, bartenders and space were absolutely perfect for our wedding of 150. We received so many compliments from guests on the venue and the service. I cannot recommend them enough for the day-of coordination as well. We did not have to decorate, worry about vendors or deal with any details on the day of the wedding which allowed us to just enjoy. We would get married there again in a heartbeat :) -

Best wedding ever
Harbor View Loft was the absolute best wedding venue anyone could ask for. You get the best of all worlds when you choose them. You have the bay on one side and the harbor on the other AND the San Diego city skylines for multiple different San Diego vibes without having to deal with the windy conditions a beach front would give you. Its also just private enough to enough an intimate ceremony on the park if you want.
Aside from the venue space being absolutely perfect, the staff at Personal Touch Dining was absolutely phenomenal. Every single person i spoke to from months before my wedding to the day of were awesome. They come with a day of coordinator which actually ends up being month of coordinator that helps diffuse any worry or question you may have leading up to your wedding. They are SO good at what they do and do it all very professionally and with such chill and happy vibes. They also have a bridal and a groom suite that you can hang out in prior to the wedding which a lot of places dont have around here. I simply cannot say enough good things about this venue and the staff that comes along with it! -

Stunning night views and exceptional service
This unassuming wedding venue is absolutely stunning and unlike any other I've been to. The staff was incredibly professional, punctual, and accommodating - we couldn't have asked for better people to work with. Daisy and Myra in particular were excellent (and were really good at handling multiple points of communication, including from the mother of the bride). Everything felt very streamlined and seamless. We were planning this wedding from 3000 miles away, and after 2 years of pandemic delays so the level of support and attention Daisy and the whole staff gave to us was really a lifesaver in an otherwise chaotic process. We were also paying for the wedding ourselves and this was by far the least ridiculously expensive option that still felt really beautiful and unique. Not many San Diego natives even know about this location, as it is tucked away but deceptively close to the airport which was great for all the out-of-town guests. The view of the water and the city skyline, especially at night, is really something to behold. Would absolutely recommend for any future event. -

the dreamiest wedding EVER at HVL!
We got married at HVL on 7/29/22 and it was truly the most DREAMY day. When we first toured HVL we planned on having our ceremony out on the lawn outside by the water but we ended up having to have it upstairs on the rooftop and oh my goodness I am SO glad we did.
The rooftop allowed for the most intimate feeling during the ceremony as all of our guests were able to be so close to me and my husband when we were up at the altar. We had around 125 guests and I will never forget the feeling of walking down the aisle and everyone standing up. I was so emotional walking down the aisle at HVL because it felt as if all of our guests were giving me a huge hug. It was the most surreal feeling and I wish all brides could experience this!
Then once we were up there everyone said they LOVED the views of San Diego! We had lots of guests from out of town so for them this was such a perfect spot because they could see downtown SD and have the classic harbor vibes as well for a perfect photo backdrop. We took photos down on the lawn with our bridesmaids and groomsmen and then by the harbor for sunset and with family so you really can take advantage of it all!
The airport being SO close is super super helpful and it wasn't a bother at all during the ceremony to have an airplane fly by, no one even noticed it. During the whole planning process everyone was SO helpful! Especially Daisy and Darcie as they were the two that helped us from the beginning! During our tastings and linen picking they were so patient with me and my husband and we are so very grateful for this. Our day of coordinator Myra was also SO wonderful. She really made sure everything was perfect and it truly was!!!
The FOOD was also so good! We ended up doing tacos (which I am not sure if they are available anymore but I heard all the food is unbelievable) and churros for dessert and everyone said they loved this! It made our out of town guests feel even more like they had the whole SD experience.
Overall they truly were so wonderful at making sure everything went smoothly and I 100% recommend HVL and the whole team to absolutely anyone who wants to have the perfect San Diego wedding! It was intimate, classy, budget friendly, and SO MUCH FUN! Thank you so much HVL! -

Great venue in San Diego!
We had our wedding at the Harbor View Loft in December 2021 and had the absolute best time. This was such an incredible venue for our wedding. We lucked out with perfect weather in December and had a beautiful view, sunny ceremony, and everything ran so smoothly. Our coordinator, Darcie, and her assistant, were absolutely amazing. They were so well-prepared, efficient, and kind the entire night. Because of them, we always had a drink in our hand, didn't have to worry about the timeline or schedule, and could truly enjoy the entire evening. They ensured that everything ran smoothly and on time and made sure we were having a great time. We also had tons of compliments from our guests about how well the bartender worked - quick and friendly! The staff that they have at the HVL made this such an amazing venue. It was incredible to have our wedding at a place where we didn't have to have any worries and they really did the best job at making our day perfect- great food, beautifully decorated, and delicious drinks. After having to push back our wedding and working with Annalisa and Darcie for months, I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a venue with a great view of San Diego, amazing staff who perfect their decor and are friendly, accommodating, and easy to communicate with! -

Gorgeous December Wedding Venue
I don't even have words for how effortless my wedding day was last week at Harbor View Loft. I initially found them in January 2020 through a friend who used them (and they saved her day by the way)! I initially was working with Annalisa, and then worked with Darcie as my coordinator the last six months. Annalisa was wonderful, and Darcie is an angel. Day of the wedding Darcie and Dani (another coordinator) handled every. single. moment. If there were any issues that day, I don't know, because they nailed it. Nothing was brought to my attention and I felt wonderful. They made sure my husband and I were fed, that I got a drink, and that everything with our vendors was coordinated. They handled the arch rental and set up for me and it turned out gorgeous. I absolutely do not have enough kind words for their staff, how beautiful this venue is, and the fact that it was all-inclusive was amazing for my budget. Their in-house catering company is PHENOMENAL. Everyone is still raving about how insanely good the food was. IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD. I have been to many weddings where the food is less than good, and I am so amazed at the quality and service of our food. Thank you so much Harbor View Loft for my day - I am only sad it is over. Do not sleep on this venue - book it NOW. -

Amazing and Unforgettable
We were overjoyed with our experience at the Harbor View Loft! We had to postpone our wedding due to Covid, but the teams stood by us all the way through! Darcie, Annalisa, Danielle, and the crew made our planning process easy and simple. We always felt in good hands and the day of our wedding was so smooth and fun! We are so thankful we finally were able to celebrate our special day!-

Beautiful views and amazing experience
Thank you for making our day go as smooth as possible. I thought I would be pulled into different directions but you guys took care of everything and we were able to enjoy our night with no worries. After weeks of stressful planning it was nice to let go one night and I don’t think that would have been possible without Darcie or Danielle. Thanks again!! -

Amazing Wedding Venue and Team!
I cannot say enough good things about Harbor View Loft and the team! Our wedding was cancelled twice due to covid, but they always made sure to communicate and worked with us on finding a new date each time so that we could finally have our day! We had our ceremony across the street at the park and the views from there and the reception location are breathtaking. Annalisa, Darcie and Danielle were amazing throughout the almost 2 years of planning (thanks covid) and really made sure every detail on our day was perfect. We got so many compliments from our guests about the venue and how great everything was. I would highly recommend this venue and team to anyone getting married, you won’t be disappointed!-

Loved HVL!
We had our wedding at Harbor View Loft 6/5/21. We had a great experience from start to finish. We loved that most things are included (remember that music, photography, flowers, and officiant are not). Having an open bar and great food were important to us. The location of the venue can't be beat. The views of the skyline, the harbor, and North Island are incredible. Though we didn't have the park reserved for our ceremony, we were still able to take pictures there with our photographer.
Annalisa and Darcie helped us with planning and executing every detail of our ceremony and reception and made sure we thought about everything. Darcie made sure that the day of went off without a hitch and that we got a chance to taste everything that was served!
We got lots of compliments on the food from Personal Touch Dining as well as the wedding overall. We had a great time and would definitely recommend considering HVL for your wedding!-

San Diego Hidden Gem!
Harbor View Loft is one of San Diego's hidden gems! My husband and I had our wedding reception in July and it was such a great experience! Annalisa and Darcie of Personal Touch Dining as well as Dannielle of Harbor View Loft were all a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. One thing that we really loved was the space. When we did our initial walk through the views captured our eyes immediately. The view is gorgeous with the harbor on one side and the San Diego skyline on the other. It was beautiful and our guests loved hanging out on the patio throughout the evening. We would definitely recommend this venue to future couples! -

Gorgeous Views and Delicious Food
Harbor View Loft was the perfect choice venue for our wedding. It met and exceeded our expectations. The food was all delicious and the staff were on top of everything 120%. It did get toasty inside at the reception (summer wedding), but all the outside space/tables/games meant our guests could walk outside to cool off and look at the view. Overall, we are SO glad we chose this amazing venue for our special day that we will remember for a lifetime. Our guests raved about the food and the views, and I can't wait to see all of our amazing pictures with the water and downtown at sunset as the backdrop. Thank you so much!!! -

Worth The Wait!
I can not say enough good things about this place! After my wedding was postponed twice due to COVID, I finally got married here at the end of July. From start to finish, Harbor View Loft exceeded my expectations. Not only did they help me reschedule my wedding, but they went above and beyond to ensure my day was everything I wanted it to be. Every single gust still talks about how spectacular my venue was. Thank you Harbor View Loft! -

An absolute dream
We absolutely LOVED everything about this venue! My husband and I got married there July 2021 and it was absolutely PERFECT! Not only is the venue stunning all by itself, but the Sales Reps, Coordinators (Shoutout to Annalisa, Darcie and Danielle) and their staff were so kind, patient and anticipated our needs making our day stress-free and pure magic! My hubby has said several times that if we were to do it all over again we would go back to Harbor View Loft without a doubt! :) Beautiful views of San Diego, conveniently located especially for out of town guests, the catering company Personal Touch Dining's food was AMAZING! Seriously would not change a thing! -

perfect venue for the most perfect day
Harbor View Loft is perfect!!! We worked with Annalisa during most of our planning, and she is a sweet angel. Annalisa was so responsive (always replied back within 24 hours) and so accommodating. Closer to our wedding, we had the privilege of working with Darcie, who is just as amazing and is a super star!! On the day of our wedding, HVL was set up exactly how we envisioned. The food was soooo delicious! I still dream about the grilled cheese with tomato bisque and ahi poke tacos. We received so many compliments about how good the food was at our wedding. Throughout the night, the staff constantly made sure we were good and always made sure we had a drink in our hands. Thank you so much Annalisa, Darcie, and all the HVL staff for making our wedding day perfect! -

10/10 would recommend!
I cannot say enough great things about Harbor View Lofts, Personal Touch Dining, and our wonderful wedding coordinators Annalisa, Darcie, and Danielle! The venue is gorgeous with a great view of downtown San Diego. The venue has a very elegant look, and since the view is so pretty with the full length window walls, we didn’t have to go overboard with decorations. It is located close to the airport, but you don’t hear a single plane from the venue. The food was phenomenal, and I loved that they had two of each appetizer waiting for me and my husband at our sweetheart table so that we actually got to try them. The coordinators were so helpful through the entire process and were quick to respond to my many emails of questions. They kept everything very organized and did a fantastic job setting everything up and coordinating the day of. They really made the day as least stressful as possible for us! I highly recommend having your wedding at Harbor View Loft! -

Stop Looking and Book It Now!
The venue was absolutely gorgeous! Our wedding was mid-June and was the first wedding hosted here post-COVID that held the ceremony in the park across from Harbor View Loft. We were totally expecting little hitches here and there as the staff got back into the swing of things, but everything went off perfectly and seamlessly! Can't recommend this place enough, it's an incredible value and makes for some amazing wedding photos. Serious kudos to the staff for making our special day perfect. -

Seamless Wedding at Stunning Venue
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Annalisa and Personal Touch Dining! Harbor View Loft is only a few years old and is absolutely stunning from every angle. If you are looking for an all-inclusive venue – this is it! From cake to table linens to chairs, portable heaters and a gorgeous bar – Harbor View Loft has so much to offer their clients. The HVL coordinator, Annalisa, was incredibly communicative, proactive and accommodating to every single one of my (crazy!) requests and questions. She is an absolute dream to work with and kept me calm as I navigated planning a wedding during a pandemic. We had so much fun doing the food tasting and discussing all of the options (including the tablescapes). Every item on the menu is delicious – we had quite a though time narrowing down our final selections. The Personal Touch Dining staff was super attentive to our guests and made the entire evening go off without a hitch. Thank you for everything!! -

Beautiful venue
This is best venue with amazing Harbor views. We had our wedding in October 2020. Annalisa, the wedding coordinator, was a pleasure to work with. She is super responsive, helpful and will be there for you every step of the way. We had to make major last minute changes due to COVID-19 and she worked with us to make it happen. The staff is extremely attentive & made everything look flawless. Food was delicious and menu has tons of options to choose from for all liking. Thank you Annalisa and the staff for everything! -

Happily (Gay) Married!
We had a wonderful experience with Annalisa and her crew at Harbor View Loft. We wanted a private venue with stunning views and we got it! All of our 150+ guests raved about the harbor views as well as the views of Coronado Bridge, downtown San Diego, and a gorgeous sunset. Tons of parking for everyone. There are hotels nearby for out of town guests. Service was great, the apps and main course were delicious. During the planning, Annalisa walked us through choices of table cloth and settings, colors, food items and ceremony itinerary. We had a food and drink tasting at their headquarters weeks prior to the event to let us decide what we want on our menu. On our wedding day, Annalisa was on top of things and we didn't have to worry about anything...except whether or not he'll say "I do". Of course he did! -

So happy with our experience!
We were married here in January 2020 and absolutely loved it! From the initial walk through, tasting, planning, and even last minute changes Annalisa really helped to make everything go perfectly and smoothly. I honestly can’t remember any hiccups or issues along the way. We did the ceremony at the park, cocktail hour on the patio (they had heaters), and the reception inside, it was really beautiful and everyone had a great time. Also the food and desserts were delicious! Couldn’t of imagined our wedding anywhere else. -

Beautiful and Safe COVID Wedding Success
My wife and I were able to have a small, outdoor wedding at Harbor View Loft on November 20th 2020. Obviously planning our small wedding in this hectic year was not easy and we had to make a lot of changes along the way to adapt to local and state guidelines, but through it all Annalisa and Kendra were amazing and worked with us to make our wedding dream a reality.
We had both our ceremony and reception on the outdoor patio space. The atmosphere was beautiful with the sun setting over the stunning San Diego cityscape in the backdrop. Guests had their temperatures taken upon arrival and were required to wear masks. Everything felt very safe and professional; guests had no issues with adhering to the clearly laid out public health guidelines and gratefully nobody in attendance got sick. All things considered, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding given the circumstances and we owe it all to the amazing staff at Harbor View Loft. -

January Wedding
Harbor View Loft is absolutely breath-taking. We couldn't have picked a better venue! Working with Annalisa and Personal Touch Dining was a pleasure and they truly made our day seamless. The food was amazing especially the Rustic Chicken and Pork Tenderloin. Not to mention our guests loved the appetizers and signature drinks. You can not go wrong with choosing this beautiful venue on the San Diego Harbor. The skyline at night is impressive with a 360 view. 10/10 would recommend! -

Fabulous for so many reasons!
I cannot say enough good things about Harbor View Loft! This venue is so amazing for so many reasons. To start, the price point is extremely reasonable! Because it is a newer venue they thought of everything to make your evening memorable. The dance floor is spacious and the floor plan flows beautifully. The outdoor space for the ceremony is surround by water on both sides. In fact the venue has floor to ceiling windows on all side allowing breathtaking views of downtown, the harbor, and the bay. The venue sells itself. But the service you get is impeccable, and Annalisa is exceptionally responsive and gets back to you right away. She makes the entire process flawless. She is organized and thinks of everything. And she treats you like you are her favorite client. The way they have dealt with Covid19 is amazing. They have bent over backwards to do whatever they can to accommodate their brides to be able to reschedule their wedding. We could not be happier we chose the Harbor View Loft! -

Fantastic Service, Beautiful Venue
The staff at Harbor View Loft was wonderful to work with from the very first email onward. We worked primarily with Annalisa, who is responsive, proactive, calm, accommodating, and overall fun to work with. She shared her personal recommendations for food, layout, and linen options as a baseline, then directed us to the many options HVL has to offer. We really appreciated her input to get us started and the flexibility to build a wedding that was truly "ours". Annalisa even helped get us a tasting scheduled early and showed linen samples so that we could better plan for all of our out-of-town guests (vast majority).
HVL has their own catering company and you get a full package event managed by the same team! At our tasting, we learned first-hand that everything is prepared with far more care and presentation than we saw at other caterers. They have various styles of food service, specialty meal options for guests with food sensitivities, and they even offer food stations for a more casual vibe. The bacon wrapped dates, grilled tri-tip with corn/tomato relish, and their homemade cookies are to die for!
We were really drawn to Harbor View Loft because of the location, scenic beauty, and nearly unlimited layout/decor options offered directly through HVL. Annalisa provided linen options, layout CADs, and decor ideas to help bring any vision to life. The transition and flow of guests from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to dinner and then dancing is a breeze in this space, and your guests get to enjoy views around the harbor and even catch a sunset on the deck!
As 2020 carried on, it became clear that our envisioned wedding was in jeopardy. Annalisa continued to check in with us and provide updates regarding impacts to the wedding industry and our event in particular. HVL was flexible and accommodating, and offered alternative packages, physically-distanced seating arrangements, and even a chance to postpone our date at no extra charge. We can't say enough great things about HVL - from the venue, to the food, customization options, and ultimately the staff. You'll be in great hands if you choose to host your event here.

Choosing this venue was the best choice we ever made!
On October 12, 2019, my husband and I got married at the Harbor View Loft.
I cannot rave enough about our experience with Personal Touch Dining and our wedding at Harbor View Loft. From start to finish everything was absolutely perfect. Our coordinator was Annalisa, and she was a dream come true. She made an experience that can be overwhelming and stressful seem effortless. The whole process was very organized, and the whole team of employees at Personal Touch Dining work like a well-oiled machine. We are not from San Diego, so they went above and beyond to help us coordinate and make all of our plans and arrangements, offering suggestions when we needed help. All of our questions/phone calls/emails were answered promptly, they were able to work with all of our requests.
We fell in love with the venue, the pictures online just can’t do it justice. The views and atmosphere of the location are priceless. We had our ceremony on the patio. There isn’t really need for too much outdoor decorations because the views alone are an amazing backdrop for the ceremony. There is a park right across the street that offered a close spot for some amazing photos, and someone was even kind enough to let us into the marina to grab a few photos. The indoor reception space is new and modern and had more than enough space to hold our 180+ guests comfortably. They have separate rooms on separate floors for the bride and the groom to get ready and hang out before the ceremony. Annalisa was there early coordinating with all the vendors and making sure all the little details were perfect and in place.
The food was AMAZING. Our family and friends are still raving about the spinach and artichoke stuffed mushroom appetizer and the parmesan crusted chicken portion for dinner. Our guests were so impressed by everything and everyone had a great time.
I can go on and on about all the little details, but I’ll end this review by just saying that we are so unbelievably grateful for a truly perfect wedding day and everything Personal Touch Dining did for us.

Amazing venue with incredible view and service
Harbor View Loft is a beautiful venue for any type of event! I recently had my Bridal Shower there and everything was amazing. All of the natural light keeps the room light and airy and sets the scene for whatever kind of event you are hosting. We had games outside for the guests and they were able to enjoy them as well as the incredible views of the water. Annalisa makes planning your event so easy! She is easy to get a hold of, quick to respond and very helpful. Professionalism at its best! We were able to use the downstairs room to make final touches on my hair and makeup. It was the perfect space that has easy access to the event space. The food is SO good! We had their Mexican cuisine and I received numerous compliments on it. The churros were the perfect dessert! We had Katie as our bartender and she was awesome! She interacted great with the guests and always had a welcoming smile! I could not have picked a better space for my Bridal Shower! I highly recommend it! -

Best Decision Ever
Choosing Harbor View Loft as my wedding venue was one of the best decisions I have ever made.
Where do I begin?
1. Working with the sales manager, Annalisa, was an absolute pleasure. She made everything easy and stress-free. She truly understood my wants and needs and went above and beyond for me! If you know exactly what you want, she's ready to listen. If you're a little more laid back like me, she's ready to give suggestions and help guide you for your day.
2. It's affordable!! I viewed 5+ other venues and this one (BY FAR) was the most affordable and the best bang for your buck. Even though the cost per person was lower than any other venue I viewed, nothing was cheap here. There was a large variety selection of food, including filet mignon—many other venues charge more for filet!
3. Annalisa worked with the chef to make sure that there would be meals that would fit the dietary needs of myself and my friends and family—gluten-free for me and vegan for my friends/family.
4. The venue itself is beautiful. The inside is so modern and clean. Everything is newly remolded in there. The color scheme is pretty neutral so that you can spice it up however you dream! There are windows all around that look at the marina on one side and the bay on the other. There are views of the entire downtown cityscape and the Coronado bridge too.
5. On the day of the event, all of the servers, bartenders, and any other workers were so kind and helpful. They saved 4 pieces of each appetizer so that my husband and I could eat them after cocktail hour. Any worker was constantly making sure we had everything we needed, to the point where we never had to go up to the bar to get our own drink! The food was amazing (I highly recommend the mediterranean salmon)! The park was beautiful—Annalisa helped us obtain a park permit to have the ceremony there. The venue was beautiful and the servers, chef, and bartenders were great, which made my wedding as perfect as it possibly could have been. It was everything I have dreamt of since I was young! -

Overall Exceptional
I was totally pleased with the outcome. My planner, Annalisa Gangi was so attentive to detail and responsive to all of my questions in a timely manner. The venue is gorgeous, the meal options were delicious and accommodating to specific dietary needs. The partners they list are also easy to work with and reasonable. You will not be disappointed and your guests will experience an elegant event. -

Best ocean view venue!
This venue was amazing! When we went to tour, they were still under construction but we thought just with the ocean view, it would be worth it. The view is great but the elegant look of the venue makes it a perfect wedding venue! You won’t find a better costing venue with an ocean view than this one. The staff were so attentive of every little detail and made it easy to plan the ceremony and reception. They even took care of all the papers so we could use the park across the street for our ceremony! Thank you Tracy & Annalisa, you guys are awesome! -

Perfect, Perfect, Perfect
For an incredible, wedding venue in San Diego, look no further.
Our vision for our wedding was classic, elegant, and most importantly - FUN. And that is exactly what we had!
Tracy, Annalisa and the rest of the team at Harbor View Loft / Personal Touch Dining are absolutely incredible. They were a pleasure to work with, supremely organized and prepared, and gave us the wedding of our dreams. The food was delicious, the drinks were amazing, and our guests raved about the perfect time they had. Harbor View Loft even provided a few fun games for our guests to enjoy during cocktail hour! They think of every detail to create a spectacular event.
If we were to do our wedding all over again, we would not change a single thing. The Harbor View Loft team covers every detail; from ceremony, to linens, to table numbers. They made the wedding planning process FUN and easy. Thank you SO much to the Harbor View Loft team for helping to create our perfect wedding day! -

Beautifully Elegant and Clean!
We chose Harbor View Loft after looking at several other venues because it is brand new, super clean and beautiful, it has amazing views and is in a convenient location. The management and staff have an outstanding reputation from their other venues, and they lived up to every great review.
Mostly, we loved working with Annalisa! She personally saw to so many of the details for the big day, arranged for additional venue visits for my out of town parents, and even made special arrangements to take special care of a couple of our little guests who have severe food allergies.
They include a lot of perks in their package like the chiavari chairs, and votives. I would highly recommend Harbor View Loft for your wedding and reception! (It’s close to the airport and we were initially concerned with the planes taking off, but it was not even noticeable!)

Perfect Spot to Tie the Knot!
My planner, Keli Christenson, found this venue for me...And I'm so glad she did!
The space itself is incredibly beautiful and modern (it was just renovated). The hardwood floors, marble bar, muted colors, and incredible views and wrap-around walkway were perfect! Also...it was about half the price I was quoted for a hotel in the same area! Further, I've noticed that hotels often have grand rooms for weddings that are pretty, but a bit dated, given their age. Harbor View was just completed last year, so that wasn't an issue. All in all, it was a perfect canvas to accommodate my decor and flowers.
The layout allowed for a sweetheart table in the back/middle of the room so that all of the guests had a good view of us throughout the speeches, cake-cutting, etc. You can tell this place was designed with weddings in mind.
As for the staff, I first met with Tracy, the owner. I sat down with her to talk about what we wanted in terms of food and bar, and she was very accommodating. While she gave a list of alcohols to choose from, she was happy to find something not on the list for us (Macallan 12) that we requested. On the night of, the food was absolutely delicious, and my friends especially enjoyed the open bar!
Annalisa was the employee I interacted with the most, and she was incredibly sweet and helpful. She had no problem changing our menu after the tasting to include 4 appetizers instead of 3 for a reasonable surcharge (just couldn't leave behind the bacon-wrapped dates!) and would always respond to emails really quickly.
A lot of people told me and my husband that it was the best wedding they'd been to and I owe that in part to this awesome venue and its staff. -

Harbor View Loft
Harbor view loft was an amazing wedding venue. We had our wedding there in November and their staff were so helpful, attentive, and always answered all of our questions. Our wedding coordinator was amazing! They made our vision come to life and really cared about all the small details! Harbor view loft had so many options to make our wedding so easy and stress free, as we did not live in SD, it was a breeze to communicate and plan stress free experience! They also had wonderful vendors to use that know the venue! We can’t thank all of them enough! -

A Truly Professional, Caring, and Detail-Oriented Team
Personal Touch Dining, especially Daisy Ochoa and Hannah Adams, were truly phenomenal. Daisy was our main point of contact and an absolute professional. From the start, she gave us so much confidence. She guided us through every step with patience, clarity, and kindness, answering all our questions and handling our spreadsheets and details with ease. Hannah kept all our scheduling and logistics perfectly organized and was always incredibly responsive. Their resources, timelines, suggestions, and regular check-ins kept us on track and completely stress-free.
Before the wedding, they coordinated our rehearsal, food tasting, meal selections, dessert orders, and our request for bilingual bartender and waitstaff, which meant so much to us and our families. Our production meeting with Daisy was especially helpful; she walked us through every detail, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure nothing was overlooked.
On the wedding day, Daisy was so kind and attentive. She made sure we were fed, taken care of, and stayed on schedule. The team's help with setup and decor was outstanding. They brought our vision to life beautifully and handled every detail so we did not have to worry about a thing.
We are incredibly grateful for their hard work and could not have asked for a better team. Personal Touch Dining, Daisy, and Hannah made our wedding seamless, joyful, and unforgettable. We highly, highly recommend them!-

Simple, easy, and so special
I knew I wanted to work with an all-inclusive venue at the start of our engagement. I wanted my fiancé and I to be just that: engaged in our relationship and not overwhelmed with wedding planning. So, I knew the greatest investment was going to be a venue that offered a seasoned coordinator, highly-rated catering, an open bar, a built-in bar, restrooms, a bridal suite, a groom’s suite, patio heaters, air conditioning, linens, chairs, tableware and parking. (There are a lot of event essentials you don’t realize you need to coordinate until you start planning a once-in-lifetime event like a wedding!) All of the services offered by the Harbor View Loft meant that a lot of planning was taken off my plate. It was worth it! It meant I could spend my time and attention on more memorable aspects of our engagement like fun wedding details and impactful marriage counseling.

Wonderful Team and Gorgeous Venue
From the day we walked into this venue, we knew Harbor Loft was our choice. My husband (then fiancé) said, 'Where do I sign and pay?" Daisy was a delight- extremely thorough and helpful at every step of our wedding journey. Being able to have a group tasting and experience the venue as guests was a great time. Our wedding had a told of 82 guests and all of them had a great time and couldn't believe how beautiful the setting was. The day of coordinator Kaitlyn could not have been better. She provided us updates and gracefully handled every step of our schedule with ease. Our guests raved over the food and desserts. If you don't know where to start and are looking for a venue that can handle -almost- everything, please choose Harbor View Loft. The pricing can get a little steep with add-ons, but once it comes together and you essentially don't have to lift a finger day of, it's absolutely worth its value. Highly recommend working with Daisy and Kaitlyn-if you can! Cheers!-

Brides and grooms beware!
Brides and Grooms beware of Personal Touch Dining/Harbor View Loft in San Diego!
My son’s Saturday wedding had to be postponed twice due to COVID. @PersonalTouchD told him that they had NO SATURDAYS available in 2021 to reschedule. We have emails with them offering several Saturdays to a new customer. They figured they had our money and they had us over a barrel. The rescheduling contract states that if the event is cancelled, Personal Touch Dining can keep ALL OF YOUR MONEY – without performing any services. The reschedule was contingent on us signing a new and revised contract, which had changes that were unacceptable. They also lied about the meaning of some of the changes. We refused to sign the revised contract. They have taken the position that, since we refused the new contract, we cancelled, WE DID NOT CANCEL. THEY CHANGED THE AGREEMENT AND DID NOT PERFORM. We just wanted our money back. They offered a partial refund, saying “It is fair and reasonable to share the cost of the pandemic we find ourselves in.” We were the only ones sharing! They said they incurred $3,000 in fixed costs for an event that never happened and wasn’t scheduled to happen for six more weeks. The partial refund was contingent on us signing a non-disparagement agreement so that we could NEVER say anything negative about them to anyone. We refused the partial refund and they refused to return any of our money. They provided no services and still have our $9,200. BRIDES & GROOMS BEWARE!
