Hey there, it's Ben again! Today, I'm thrilled to provide a rundown of one of the most sought-after wedding venues in San Diego, California – the San Diego Mission Bay Resort.

Firstly, the San Diego Mission Bay Resort offers several picturesque locations for the ceremony. Whether you prefer a beachfront wedding with the sand between your toes, or a garden ceremony surrounded by lush greenery and palm trees, or a dock overlooking the bay and fiesta island the resort has you covered. Each location within the resort boasts its own unique charm and ambiance, ensuring that your ceremony will be as individual as your love story.

After the ceremony, you won't need to worry about logistics as your reception can also be hosted at the resort, saving you the hassle of transportation. The resort offers a variety of reception choices, from grand ballrooms to outdoor patios, each capable of being transformed to suit your wedding theme. In addition to the convenience of having everything in one location, the San Diego Mission Bay Resort offers a variety of other perks. These include top-tier catering, deluxe accommodation for you and your guests at a discount, and a team of professional event coordinators who work tirelessly to ensure that your special day goes off without a hitch.

In terms of pricing at the San Diego Mission Bay Resort, the ceremony has a choice of the garden by the bay at $3,800 or a beach ceremony and includes the permit for the beach for $3,000. Pricing for the reception is $168 per person and includes a bar, meal service and a wedding cake. They offer a variety of reception options such as ballrooms and waterfront decks. My favorite is the bayside terrance which is outside by the pool under the stars surrounded by the palm trees and bistro lights. They do have a 25% service charge so remember to consider that and taxes when looking at this venue. If you or your guests are coming from out of town you also get discounted room rates.

In conclusion, the San Diego Mission Bay Resort is more than just a wedding venue. It's a place where your wedding dreams can come to life, where every detail of your special day is handled with the utmost care and attention. As a wedding photographer, I can attest to the fact that this venue not only offers a stunning backdrop for your wedding photos but also provides an experience that you and your guests will remember forever. So, if you're in the process of planning your wedding and are looking for a venue that offers convenience, variety, and top-notch service, the San Diego Mission Bay Resort should definitely be on your list.
