Harbor View Loft

ing scenery and access to both inside and outside areas, the staff was incredible to work with. They offered everything that we needed for our wedding, and made the process seamless. I was in contact with Daisy and Darcie every step of the way, and Myra, my day of coordinator, brought my entire vision to life. The food was talked about by our families for weeks after our wedding, and their recommended vendors list made it extremely easy to choose from. They helped make our dream wedding a reality and all of our guests absolutely loved every part of it!

ey were so easy to work with as we planned our wedding, very responsive and always prioritized making the most important aspects of our wedding happen. The food, service, bartenders and space were absolutely perfect for our wedding of 150. We received so many compliments from guests on the venue and the service. I cannot recommend them enough for the day-of coordination as well. We did not have to decorate, worry about vendors or deal with any details on the day of the wedding which allowed us to just enjoy. We would get married there again in a heartbeat :)

had Daisy take over and she was just amazing. Always answering my random questions/emails and always making us feel important. She helped us pick out everything and adjusted our contract as needed whenever I made a change or added things. Everything ran so smoothly as she and Sam were there at the wedding making sure all was perfect. And it was. Thank you so much!!

e excellent (and were really good at handling multiple points of communication, including from the mother of the bride). Everything felt very streamlined and seamless. We were planning this wedding from 3000 miles away, and after 2 years of pandemic delays so the level of support and attention Daisy and the whole staff gave to us was really a lifesaver in an otherwise chaotic process. We were also paying for the wedding ourselves and this was by far the least ridiculously expensive option that still felt really beautiful and unique. Would absolutely recommend for any future event.

I am SO glad we did. The rooftop allowed for the most intimate feeling during the ceremony as all of our guests were able to be so close to me and my husband when we were up at the altar. We had around 125 guests and I will never forget the feeling of walking down the aisle and everyone standing up. I was so emotional walking down the aisle at HVL because it felt as if all of our guests were giving me a huge hug. It was the most surreal feeling and I wish all brides could experience this! Then once we were up there everyone said they LOVED the views of San Diego! We had lots of guests from out of town so for them this was such a perfect spot because they could see downtown SD and have the classic harbor vibes as well for a perfect photo backdrop. We took photos down on the lawn with our bridesmaids and groomsmen and then by the harbor for sunset and with family so you really can take advantage of it all! The airport being SO close is super super helpful and it wasn't a bother at all during the ceremony to have an airplane fly by, no one even noticed it. During the whole planning process everyone was SO helpful! Especially Daisy and Darcie as they were the two that helped us from the beginning! During our tastings and linen picking they were so patient with me and my husband and we are so very grateful for this. Our day of coordinator Myra was also SO wonderful. She really made sure everything was perfect and it truly was!!! The FOOD was also so good! We ended up doing tacos (which I am not sure if they are available anymore but I heard all the food is unbelievable) and churros for dessert and everyone said they loved this! It made our out of town guests feel even more like they had the whole SD experience. Overall they truly were so wonderful at making sure everything went smoothly and I 100% recommend HVL and the whole team to absolutely anyone who wants to have the perfect San Diego wedding! It was intimate, classy, budget friendly, and SO MUCH FUN! Thank you so much HVL!

, great patio. All the staff were fantastic to work with, Darcie was our primary point of contact and day of coordinator and she is the absolute best! Personal Touch Dining is the catering service used and WOW- our guests could not stop raving about the food, it was absolutely delicious! If we were to do this all over again, we'd pick HVL every time.

all my questions, and even shifted our date once with no issues. The location and all the amenities provided by the venue made for an amazing day. I didn’t have to look elsewhere for catering or rentals for our wedding which made things so much less stressful for me. Darcie was our main point of contact during the planning process and she was absolutely wonderful to work with. From scheduling multiple tastings, adjusting timelines, handling everything on the back end of the rehearsal and day of. Caitlin was fantastic as our day of venue coordinator. She worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, made sure we always had plenty to eat or drink, and made sure everything went as planned. I am so pleased with how everything turned out. Our guests loved the venue, the food, and the whole vibe thanks to HVL!!!

ng ran so smoothly. Our coordinator, Darcie, and her assistant, were absolutely amazing. They were so well-prepared, efficient, and kind the entire night. Because of them, we always had a drink in our hand, didn't have to worry about the timeline or schedule, and could truly enjoy the entire evening. They ensured that everything ran smoothly and on time and made sure we were having a great time. We also had tons of compliments from our guests about how well the bartender worked - quick and friendly! The staff that they have at the HVL made this such an amazing venue. It was incredible to have our wedding at a place where we didn't have to have any worries and they really did the best job at making our day perfect- great food, beautifully decorated, and delicious drinks. After having to push back our wedding and working with Annalisa and Darcie for months, I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a venue with a great view of San Diego, amazing staff who perfect their decor and are friendly, accommodating, and easy to communicate with!

hen worked with Darcie as my coordinator the last six months. Annalisa was wonderful, and Darcie is an angel. Day of the wedding Darcie and Dani (another coordinator) handled every. single. moment. If there were any issues that day, I don't know, because they nailed it. Nothing was brought to my attention and I felt wonderful. They made sure my husband and I were fed, that I got a drink, and that everything with our vendors was coordinated. They handled the arch rental and set up for me and it turned out gorgeous. I absolutely do not have enough kind words for their staff, how beautiful this venue is, and the fact that it was all-inclusive was amazing for my budget. Their in-house catering company is PHENOMENAL. Everyone is still raving about how insanely good the food was. IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD. I have been to many weddings where the food is less than good, and I am so amazed at the quality and service of our food. Thank you so much Harbor View Loft for my day - I am only sad it is over. Do not sleep on this venue - book it NOW.

ugh. We are so grateful for their support in helping us finally celebrate our special day. Thank you!

to let go one night and I don’t think that would have been possible without Darcie or Danielle. Thanks again!!

important. Our wedding venue coordinator was always responsive, answered every question. They have inclusive packages which we LOVED! They made our day perfect.

! We had our ceremony across the street at the park and the views from there and the reception location are breathtaking. Annalisa, Darcie and Danielle were amazing throughout the almost 2 years of planning (thanks covid) and really made sure every detail on our day was perfect. We got so many compliments from our guests about the venue and how great everything was. I would highly recommend this venue and team to anyone getting married, you won’t be disappointed!

there were great views no matter where you look (and we got a fabulous sunset!) The venue provides versatility with the patio for an outside ceremony and the gorgeous reception space when the party transitions inside. We loved the food and bar packages, it made it so much easier to have the catering onsite. Darcie, Annalisa, and Danielle made it the best event possible. If you want an A+ events team and a fabulous venue, check out Harbor View Loft!

ortant to us. The location of the venue can't be beat. The views of the skyline, the harbor, and North Island are incredible. Though we didn't have the park reserved for our ceremony, we were still able to take pictures there with our photographer. Annalisa and Darcie helped us with planning and executing every detail of our ceremony and reception and made sure we thought about everything. Darcie made sure that the day of went off without a hitch and that we got a chance to taste everything that was served! We got lots of compliments on the food from Personal Touch Dining as well as the wedding overall. We had a great time and would definitely recommend considering HVL for your wedding!

to work with from beginning to end. One thing that we really loved was the space. When we did our initial walk through the views captured our eyes immediately. The view is gorgeous with the harbor on one side and the San Diego skyline on the other. It was beautiful and our guests loved hanging out on the patio throughout the evening. We would definitely recommend this venue to future couples!

e outside space/tables/games meant our guests could walk outside to cool off and look at the view. Overall, we are SO glad we chose this amazing venue for our special day that we will remember for a lifetime. Our guests raved about the food and the views, and I can't wait to see all of our amazing pictures with the water and downtown at sunset as the backdrop. Thank you so much!!!

hedule my wedding, but they went above and beyond to ensure my day was everything I wanted it to be. Every single gust still talks about how spectacular my venue was. Thank you Harbor View Loft!

le) and their staff were so kind, patient and anticipated our needs making our day stress-free and pure magic! My hubby has said several times that if we were to do it all over again we would go back to Harbor View Loft without a doubt! :) Beautiful views of San Diego, conveniently located especially for out of town guests, the catering company Personal Touch Dining's food was AMAZING! Seriously would not change a thing!

ot back into the swing of things, but everything went off perfectly and seamlessly! Can't recommend this place enough, it's an incredible value and makes for some amazing wedding photos. Serious kudos to the staff for making our special day perfect.

our children, never once did we have this "vowel renewal" vibe, they made us feel like it was our first wedding and made it so special for us. Annalisa was seriously the sweetest. she had such a fun, warm personality... I even joked about her looking like Whitney from MTV's "The Hills" (yea,I'm old). Aside from the gorgeous venue and great wedding packages they offer, she was also part of the reason we chose this venue. Planning a wedding is EXTREMELY stressful, I was in over my head planning and to top it off, worry about COVID and restrictions while planning made it hard and unpredictable, but Annalisa was always super amazing and available for any questions or concerns I had. That meant so much because I needed to work with someone I could rely on at any time during the planning process. We went to view it February 2020 right before COVID hit. It was the second venue we had checked out and I knew immediately I had to get married there. We had checked out 3 more venues afterward, but nothing gave me the feels like the Harbor View Loft did. We initially planned for April 10, but there were still a few restrictions and we wanted our day to be special and one to remember for all the details, not because of COVID, so we moved it to May 29. Annalisa was great enough to help make the changes. 2 weeks before our wedding, we received an email from her they were now allowed to have the dance floor open and that was a huge relief because we wanted to have that open to the guests. She also informed me she was promoted and was no longer in charge of helping me, she told me Darcie was super sweet and would be my new point of contact but assured me she would be there every step of the way had I needed her. The night before the wedding I went to drop off stuff and I met both Darcie and Danielle who would be my day-of wedding coordinator. THAT'S ANOTHER HUGE PLUS!!! included in their package is a day of coordinator. It really took all of the planning day of stress off of me. they set everything up, I never once had to worry about any detail, we just showed up from the church and it was gorgeous! more than I dreamed of. I have kids and go hard with every birthday party so planning and all the details and setup is always a ton of work so I appreciated Danielle and the team for all of their hard work and PATIENCE! We can be all over the place crazy and never run on schedule (so embarrassing -_- ) but they were extremely patient with us and I appreciate it so much. overall, AMAZING experience and I'd recommend this venue to anyone and everyone looking to host an event or wedding ... you won't regret it! THANK YOU ANNALISA for all of your kindness, your help, DANIELLE for your patience, and for setting everything up beautifully - Thank you to all of the staff at Harbor View loft for making this such a beautiful memory and experience for us.

le linens to chairs, portable heaters and a gorgeous bar – Harbor View Loft has so much to offer their clients. The HVL coordinator, Annalisa, was incredibly communicative, proactive and accommodating to every single one of my (crazy!) requests and questions. She is an absolute dream to work with and kept me calm as I navigated planning a wedding during a pandemic. We had so much fun doing the food tasting and discussing all of the options (including the tablescapes). Every item on the menu is delicious – we had quite a though time narrowing down our final selections. The Personal Touch Dining staff was super attentive to our guests and made the entire evening go off without a hitch. Thank you for everything!!

lways there ready to help in every way. We live out of town so we mostly emailed or talked on the phone and she always replied quickly. It was such a relief because we always had questions and needed recommendations for all our vendor. For my wedding I had one request, get married by the water and this venue was perfect. So many beautiful spots. Plus they offer many choices and their food is delicious! Loved our open bar and Mr and Mrs drink. Overall it was the perfect day and I know I have Annalisa, personal touch dining and everyone at Harbor View Loft to thank for that!

m the ceremony to the catering! As you can imagine how stressful it is to have rescheduled our wedding twice during this time, Annalisa from personal Touch Dining as made the process as painless and stress free as possible! She is so kind, understanding and has provided our wedding all the effort and attention that we could imagine. We definitely recommend any and every couple to choose this beautiful venue and have Annalisa as your coordinator. We are looking forward to our special day!

ajor last minute changes due to COVID-19 and she worked with us to make it happen. The staff is extremely attentive & made everything look flawless. Food was delicious and menu has tons of options to choose from for all liking. Thank you Annalisa and the staff for everything!
