Gorgeous Bayside Wedding with City View

This venue was incredible. So many of our local SD friends commented that this is a hidden gem. Most things were included with the venue rental, and Samantha was great to work with. The Harbor Float at Coasterra was the perfect place for us to say I do!

Most amazing venue in San Diego

We ended up booking Coasterra for our wedding after the other venue had to be canceled due to Covid-19. Coasterra was originally our first choice but due the original size of our wedding it was not going to be possible so we were so excited when we found out the wedding that was originally going to take place at Coasterra canceled so we could book it for our more scaled back wedding.

It was truly the perfect venue. Due to state and local guidelines as well as our desire to have a safe environment for our guests, the ability to host both our ceremony and reception outside was the perfect fit. Our ceremony took place on the barge and the reception took place on the patio outside the ballroom. We were able to create environment that was both safe (via assigned seating, individually plated dinner, no walk up bar service, etc) but still so beautiful and we didn’t feel like we missed out on anything.

When I was beginning my walk from the right walkaway of the restaurant to the barge, many of the patrons of the restaurant stood, clapped and yelled and congratulated me. It was such a welcome surprise during what was a very challenging wedding planning process.

Samantha was a gem and was incredibly accommodating and helpful and we are so thrilled.

Thank you Coasterra team and Samantha!!

One of a kind wedding venue

Wow! I don't even have enough words to describe how much I loved getting married at Coasterra. Not only is it truly a beautiful location with amazing views their team also help you with pretty much every single detail. Their wedding coordinator, Lauren, was so helpful and her team made our planning process and the wedding day go as smooth as you could possibly ever ask for. Our family and friends are STILL talking about how amazing everything was!
