    Incredible Wedding Venue!!!!

    WOW! We had our wedding in late October at L’Auberge, and it was absolutely perfect. L’Auberge is a stunning backdrop to host a wedding, but that is only the beginning. From the moment we reached out, we simply could not have been happier with the wedding services and coordination at L’Auberge.

    Specifically, Alexandra was so easy to work with to understand our needs and put together a wedding package which included accommodations for many of our guests. Their wedding coordinator, Dionne was beyond amazing throughout the entire process — she is an incredibly lovely person, and a wonderful partner in helping plan every single detail of our amazing day. She made me feel like I was the only Bride she was working with, and that our wedding day was the most special day…and it was! The entire of staff of L’Auberge were incredibly kind and accommodating, the food was amazing and we cannot even begin to describe how wonderful the service was! Our guests were raving all weekend!

    We hosted a wedding for 160 guests, with the majority from out of town. Our guests were amazed with L’Auberge — the location, the hotel, and most especially, the personalized and friendly service of the entire hotel staff. They went out of their way to welcome our guests, and provided top-notch service throughout the weekend.

    We highly, highly recommend L’Auberge!!

    Beautiful Venue for a wedding, even better Staff!

    The venue is beautiful and the pictures speak for themselves. It doesn't get much better than an oceanside sunset view during your wedding, but what sets L'Auberge apart is the quality of their staff. From the sales manager to the event service manager and the banquet staff, everyone is extremely professional and genuinely friendly. They are truly a service-oriented team and will do their best to make sure your dream wedding experience becomes a reality.

    My Absolute DREAM wedding!

    We had the most magical wedding at L'Auberge. The venue is absolutely breathtaking and you feel so welcomed from the moment you walk in. Every single staff member from valet, waiter, bartender, servers were so incredibly attentive. The entire staff went above and beyond to ensure the day went smoothly and the attention to detail was impeccable. Dionne, the event service manager, was amazing and really made it such a seamless experience for us. I could not have imagined the day going any better, our wedding was absolutely magical. We cannot wait to go back! Thank you again to everyone at L'Auberge!

    Perfect Weekend at L'Auberge Del Mar

    We celebrated our wedding at L'Auberge Del Mar two weeks ago, and we could not have had a better experience! Starting from our initial venue tour with Whitney, all the way through the planning process with Dionne, and then into the actual wedding weekend and day of with the whole team, everything was perfect. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful (you can't beat the ocean views and the gorgeously appointed property), the food is delicious (thanks to Chef and her team for accommodating our various dietary needs!), and the team is friendly and accommodating. In addition to our actual wedding, we hosted a brunch the next day at L'Auberge, and it was also wonderful! We also had a number of our guests stay at the hotel, and they raved about their time there!

    10/10 recommend

    My husband and I got married at L’Auberge Del Mar yesterday on the Pacific Terrace and it was an absolute dream. To say we are happy is an understatement. We had the most incredible experience and all of our guests were blown away with all of it and said that the day was breathtaking. The hotel staff is incredibly kind, responsive, and so hardworking. We are so happy with our decision in getting married there and if you’re looking in Del Mar, look no further than L’Auberge. The sunset over the Pacific terrace during our reception was incredibly beautiful and a staple in the evening!! 10/10 recommend. We worked very closely with Dionne Hesley, the events manager, and she was an absolute joy to work with! We are very pleased with how everything turned out!

    Amazing all around

    Since I was a little girl growing up in Del Mar it was my dream to get married jere one day. It was everything and more I could have dreamed of, and they pulled it together for me in 14 days. They were extremely helpful and took away all the stress of pulling together a wedding in 2 weeks time. You guys are amazing thank you! The set up, the food, and the event coordinators were 10/10. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome!

    Felt like royalty!

    ABSOLUTELY the most luxurious experiences I could have imagined. My husband & I got married on October 7, 2023 and had the opportunity to work with the most amazing event services managers, Dionne. From the day we checked in to the day we left the venue, we were treated like royalty. Not only that but we were incredibly blessed to have the most gorgeous cotton candy skies sunset during our reception that made it all feel like a dream. From staff, to details, to venue location, to literally everything, L'auberge exceeded my expectations. HIGHLY recommend as the #1 venue to get married!!

    Get married here

    We just had our wedding at L'Auberge, and it was an incredible experience.
    The attention to detail, staff, and service was incredible.
    The management team knows exactly what they are doing.
    In addition, the sound system and the food (steak was perfectly cooked, fish was so soft, sorbet never melted) was perfection.
    I am so so happy we chose this venue, it is beautiful inside and out.

    Wedding of our dreams

    Having our wedding at L'Auberge was a dream come true. The L'Auberge team truly knows how to deliver 5 star service. I cannot say enough great things about this venue. Communication was excellent throughout the planning process. We felt at ease knowing that we had a reliable and experienced team handling the biggest parts of our big day. Our tasting experience was incredible. The food and service the day of our wedding was AMAZING. And of course the venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. We look forward to returning to L'Auberge over the years for our future anniversaries to celebrate and reminisce on our incredible wedding weekend.

    Love L'Auberge

    The staff at L'Auberge are exceptional. My liaison there, Allyssa, was so good to me and made the process so easy. The food was phenomenal too. They couldn't have done a better job.

    L’auberge Del Mar

    My wife and I had an incredible wedding at the L’auberge. With all the preparations and spending involved we were still blown away on the day of at the level or service and overall beauty of the venue.

    Allyssa was very helpful in answering our 100s of questions to make sure everything went perfectly for our special day. She really stayed on top of everything. I highly recommend a wedding at this amazing venue!

    Incredible Wedding Weekend!

    My husband and I recently got married on the Pacific Terrace overlooking the ocean at L'Auberge Del Mar. We absolutely loved the venue and the L'Auberge team. The surrounding area is also incredible for wedding guests - there is so much to do and everything is extremely convenient, which makes for a fantastic wedding weekend experience for all involved!

    Allyssa is an absolute gem, and she is truly a pleasure to work with! She and her team went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome, comfortable, and valued throughout our entire wedding process, especially during our wedding weekend! There were a number of personal touches that she included which made our experience all that much better. We cannot thank her enough for everything she did to make the weekend magical!

    I would recommend the hotel and the L'Auberge team to any future couple looking to get married within the area. We had so much fun and can't wait to visit the property again very soon!!

    Allyssa is the Best!!

    L'Auberge was the perfect venue for my wife and I to share our love for each other with the world and the staff made it all the more special and comfortable, allowing me to focus on my wife that day, giving us the chance to enjoy our moment together. Huge thank you to Allyssa Valle and her team for doing an incredible job of handling our many questions and requests and for taking care of us every step of the way! Thank you for making us feel special! Looking forward to many more celebrations at L'Auberge Del Mar in the future!

    Our perfect wedding!

    Allyssa was amazing in coordinating our wedding at L'Auberge Del Mar. She was so responsive the entire time and really worked with us on the days and months leading up to the wedding. We truly felt she held our best interest at heart and wanted to make our day so special! She checked in on us on our wedding day to make sure everything was running smoothly and we were having a good time. She's pleasant to work and our wedding was absolutely perfect!! Truly the best venue and we were so incredibly happy with the whole day.

    Absolutely beautiful!

    Allyssa from L'Auberge made my wedding dream come true! She was amazing to work with and was extremely responsive/helpful with everything I needed. I had a big wedding party and Allyssa was able to accommodate us with two bridal getting ready suites so we had more room for pictures. That was a game changer for us! I even had to change my wedding date and L'Auberge was so flexible and made everything work. Highly recommend having your wedding at L'Auberge, it is really so beautiful!! Thank you Allyssa!

    A venue filled with breathtaking views, class, and elegance.

    A venue filled with breathtaking views, class, and elegance.

    This venue - along with the people - are simply exceptional. I worked with Courtney Ikeda and Allyssa Valle. I cannot articulate how incredible this experience has been and how knowledgeable, professional, and thoughtful Allyssa and Courtney were.

    There was never any doubt that our wedding would be a beautiful event knowing that it would take place at L'Auberge, but it was also the kindness and thoughtfulness both Courtney and Allyssa had that made it so much more special.

    They really will accommodate each individual's own vision. For me, it was important for people to feel relaxed (and give them time to take in those breathtaking ocean views in this incredibly beautiful and newly renovated boutique paradise of a hotel!)

    It is a beautiful venue with unparalleled individuals that make up the team at L'Auberge. I cannot wait to go back.

    Here's an extra: the food was out of this world. One thing that mattered to us more than anything was the food. Wow. We had guest after guest tell us how delicious the food was. That is a testament given that no one really remembers wedding food. L'Auberge is different - it was literally a Michelin-star menu.

    Wonderful Experience!

    Courtney and the team at L'Auberge were an absolute pleasure to work with. They went above and beyond to make our wedding day so special. Our guests are still raving about it. Courtney was professional, detail-oriented, thoughtful and helpful - even making our dream of having the USC band perform come true. We are so grateful for all she and the team did!

    We just got married on 10/16/20 and it was a dream! Best day of our lives thus far! Given the current state of the world, the venue and our coordinator, Courtney Ikeda still ensured we had the wedding we envisioned and it was perfect! The venue and all of the staff really worked with us on all of our needs and requests! We are so happy! So many compliments from all of our guests and the whole wedding party!

    L'Auberge Del Mar is the absolute best and a dream wedding venue in every way!

    L'Auberge Del Mar is the absolute best and a dream wedding venue in every way!! I live in Texas and have always wanted to get married outdoors, so we made the decision to have a destination wedding after getting engaged in San Diego and discovering L'Auberge! Best decision ever!! The hotel itself is absolutely gorgeous and the location/views could not be better! They have a lovely pool and it's just a short walk down to the beach directly from the hotel. It's the perfect size hotel for a destination wedding and the perfect place for guests to get to experience Del Mar! They have the best wedding package options and everyone at L'Auberge was so amazing to work with from the start. We were originally supposed to get married in June but had to postpone our wedding to October due to Covid. L'Auberge made the entire process as stress-free as possible and did everything they could to work with us during this crazy year to help make my dream wedding come true - and boy did they deliver! We worked mostly with Courtney, who is the absolute best!! Nothing but amazing things to say about her! She was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire process and did everything in her power to make sure our wedding could happen safely. They were flexible and patient with us, and always upfront about the policies/guidelines/etc. They allowed us to have our wedding as we planned it, without having to disinvite guests or change major aspects, all while following the safety protocols. They were also willing to give us a full refund if we chose to cancel given the circumstances, which was so huge!! We of course decided to move forward with the wedding, and we are so happy we did!! We had our ceremony upstairs on the Pacific Terrace, which is also where we had our reception. Everything was absolutely stunning and perfect! And the food was incredible!! Best Short Rib I've ever had (we got TONS of compliments on the food from all of our guests - everyone loved the Salmon and the Short Rib!). The service was impeccable and all of our guests had the best time. I wouldn't change a single thing and I will be recommending L'Auberge to anyone and everyone who is looking to get married in the San Diego/Del Mar area!

    Perfect place to have a wedding!

    We cannot be more thrilled with L'Auberge Del Mar as the venue for my daughter's wedding. Everything was absolutely perfect and our guests all said it was the best wedding they had ever attended! From start to finish, the professionalism, caring, thoughtfulness and attention to detail made the whole process easy and wonderful. We fell in love with L'Auberge on our first visit when looking for a venue- it was the first one we saw and we cancelled all the other visits. The setting and view are spectacular. You can't find a more beautiful place for a wedding by the sea. The hotel is luxurious without being pretentious- just charming and so relaxed and fun. The beach is right there and you can walk everywhere in Del Mar! As a destination wedding, it couldn't have been more perfect for our guests. The wedding was spectacular in every way- the food is amazing, the staff are so wonderful and attentive and the sunset background made it all breathtaking. I can't say enough good things about Courtney Ikeda. She was so kind, thoughtful and professional from start to finish. She made everything so easy despite this being a traumatic Covid year. We had to cancel our original wedding on June 13th due to Covid. We were given the option of cancelling with a full refund or rescheduling. We chose to reschedule to October and were able to have a beautiful, safe, smaller outdoor wedding. They allowed us to adjust our numbers and went out of the way to help us plan long distance to create the wedding of my daughter's dreams.
    The wedding packages they offer are fabulous and make planning so easy and keeping on budget a realistic possibility. You know exactly what it's going to cost up front and so much is included you don't need as many other vendors. We are thrilled and miss L'Auberge already. Can't wait to plan a trip back for our next vacation.

    Amazing Venue - Had to Cancel Due to Covid w/FULL REFUND!!

    My fiancé and I fell in love with L'Auberge's beachy chic vibe right away, and we loved that so much was included and we didn't need to hire a bunch of outside vendors. Every step of the way, there was lots of communication, and they were so helpful. Unfortunately, we planned our wedding for April 18, 2020, which was right at the start of the pandemic lockdown in SoCal. L'Auberge was quick to help us find a new date without any additional charge. They made it easy and quick. However, our new date was August 28, 2020. Despite it being legal to have the wedding, we didn't feel safe having it then, and L'Auberge let us out of our contract with a FULL REFUND. We didn't think that would be possible, but it was such a huge relief for us given the chaos in the world right now. We're so grateful and aware that this pandemic has also had a negative impact on the travel industry and has likely hit L'Auberge hard as well. We really appreciate everything they've done for us leading up to the wedding, in rescheduling the wedding, and in cancelling the wedding. THANK YOU!!

    (Side note: our INCREDIBLE planner at Southern House, Kayla Gantzer, was also a big part of this positive experience, for anyone looking!)

    My perfect day

    The best place for a wedding. The best staff imaginable. Unmatched beauty. Katie is the BEST. She made everything easy and was a dream to work with. If you want a more detailed review from me, check out the knot. I said it all there... or enough. Because I could go on for days. You get what you pay for & L’Auberge delivered everything and more!
