THE SAN DIEGO LENS

This guide should feel like
it belongs here.

San Diego lends itself to indoor-outdoor weddings, coastal settings, gardens and relaxed destination-style weekends.

SEASON: Even mild climates benefit from shade, wind and evening-temperature planning.

PLANNING: Think beyond the ceremony: guest lodging and the weekend experience can be part of the wedding.

01
THE BIG IDEA

Start with the feeling

Write down three words you want guests to use when they describe your wedding. Use those words as a filter before falling in love with a floor plan.

02
MAKE IT USEFUL

03
DEFINE YOUR VERSION

Make the venue work with the rest of San Diego

The right San Diego venue should make the rest of the wedding easier: vendor access, guest travel, photography timing and the budget should all make sense together.
