  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!

  Highly recommend!

  The entire Point Team was a dream to work with.
  
  From the beginning, the team was responsive, friendly, and helpful. They spent tons of time helping me plan every single detail. I live in Los Angeles and had zero issues with long-distance planning. I also planned the wedding in a relatively short timeline, but the team made it easy.
  
  On the day, the team went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly. All of my guests were raving about the staff. I had a slight hiccup with another vendor, but The Point team sprung into action and made sure everything was figured out. The day of coordinator kept me on schedule and executed my wedding timeline to a tee.
  
  The venue is gorgeous and very San Diego. We loved the view during the ceremony on the lawn. My guests liked that they could walk a short distance to enjoy the reception. My guests also enjoyed the garden. Even though it was a chilly night, the fire pits and heaters made it warm enough for them to enjoy the games, talk, and hang out.

  Fabulous Venue & Experience

  The Point was the perfect venue for our wedding! Not only is the space both beautiful and fun, Kiana, Jasleen, and the team were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process, taking time to understand our vision and providing exceptional input and guidance along the way. I loved how supportive, responsive, and practical they were in answering all of our questions. We were looking to do many things ourselves from decorations to DJing to finding our own vendors and they made it easy to do so. It was incredibly helpful that they have all the chairs, tables, sound system(s), games, and outdoor seating included. The tables are beautiful and don't require linens. There were so many details already taken of by The Point that we could just focus on the fun parts of designing the event and planning the details we cared most about.
  
  On the day of the wedding Gracie, Elizabeth, and Jasleen helped ensure things ran smoothly. As the bride, it was a huge weight off my shoulders knowing that we were in such capable hands. Our friends and family are still raving about the venue and how fun the entire event was. We can't recommend The Point highly enough if you're looking for a beautiful venue, fantastic staff, and a wonderful experience!

  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

  Highly recommend The Point!

  The Point team was so great to work with. Throughout planning and then seeing everything executed on the big day everything was perfect. They were flexible, fun and I would 1000% work with them again.

  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.!

  Amazing Wedding on the Bay

  This venue was amazing. We couldn't have found a better location to host our wedding. We had the ceremony outdoors on the bay and it was gorgeous. The reception was held inside the building and it was tastefully decorated. We really enjoyed the back patio space, after our dinner, and so did our guests during the cocktail hour. The on site coordinator, Kim, was a great help to us, as well as our catering vendors. I hope everyone can enjoy this beautiful venue on their special day.

  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. :)

  The venue was beautiful and absolutely perfect for our wedding. We could not have asked for better accommodations. Incredible day at an incredible venue.

  the nicest, most flexible, and creative people you'll meet.

  We did everything at the Point: ceremony in the front (Casey - who owns The Point - guided us to get the correct permit), cocktail hour on rented boats (Casey organized it), and reception in The Point. Truly a one-stop shop with the perfect relaxed California vibe.
  
  Additionally, Casey is one of the best people that I worked with while planning the wedding. She is massively creative, simply understood our vibe, and helped us plan an incredible wedding.
  
  We had a few unexpected issues during our reception (not related to The Point), and Casey went out of her way to help and accommodate. She's the best and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing wedding.

  Not so good, liars dont make good venue hosts

  Same experience as other reviewers on "The Knot" website. Requested a date over emails, was told it was available and booked a viewing. Went and viewed the location and decided to book the venue for our wedding, but less than 12 hours after the viewing they said our date was taken and sent us a contract with a different date. The whole thing seemed very shady as did the venue. The venue was dirty and rundown and they didn't seem to care it was that way when viewing. Was more disappointed that they lied to us and said the venue was available and then after viewing and wanting to book, told us the date was taken. Even today, almost 5 months later, we called just to check to see if they are shady. Low and behold, they are again telling us the date we originally wanted is miraculously available. They are shady, they lie, and who wants to do business with people who treat and others as so.

  The Point's reply:

  We are sorry to hear you feel like you had such a bad experience with us. We try our best to accommodate but unfortunately you were not the only couple looking to get married at our facility for the date you requested and we work on a first come first serve system.
  When you first contacted us, the date was still available, and it was still available when you scheduled a tour. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee availability indefinitely and it can change in a matter of minutes. This is the way of the event venue world. We did explain this and gave you other dates we had available to which you responded “No worries at all! We are in no hurry…”
  As for the statement that you have since called and the date is now "miraculously available". This is absolutely false. Your number has not come through our system since you last spoke to our team via email and the date in question is still booked so even if you had called, we would never tell you the date is available.
  We do understand the frustration that you may have experienced and apologize for any inconvenience.
