It was a pleasure having such a lovely bride like you! Kind regards, Daniela Z.
La Jolla is a hidden gem in the heart of Coral Gables. The staff in la Jolla were professional and courteous. They also made us feel like family, especially being "Los Consentidos de La Jolla". The spoiled rotten ones in terms of endearment. The ballroom was exactly what we... Read More were looking for our wedding celebration as it was not a traditional one. We met our Wedding Planner- Daniela; who embraced our commitment and showed great knowledge and support. Right away, she made us feel at home. Through the process, we met some great vendors and not so great vendors provided by La Jolla. The vendors we chose were AMAZING!!! Needless to say, they made our whole experience easy and enjoyable. The day of our wedding is one Richard and I will remember for the rest of our lives. Although nervous about how things were going to turn out, La Jolla and staff made our dreams come true. La Jolla made us feel like kings with their expertise in carrying out such big event. They showed compassion and charisma to us and all of our guests. Their professionalism was exhibited through in the ballroom the whole night. They were even accommodating to our pup knowing how important was the presence of our furry child (yes, with some restrictions). Overall, this was an unforgettable experience made in "heaven." Thank you La Jolla. We will be forever grateful!! Thank you Daniela for your wonderful hospitality.
We just had our wedding reception at La Jolla on 10/15/16. We are so happy that we chose this venue. The all inclusive package was amazing and very reasonably priced for the Coral Gables area. Maria Belen and Daniela provided me help and support the entire 10 months of wedding... Read More planning. The location, the food, to the open bar, vendors included in the package, and customer service, La Jolla is top notch quality venue!! I'd recommend this venue to anyone.
I did my Wedding at LA JOLLA this past summer, and I am so glad I did! From the beginning they made me feel like family and I knew that my event was in good hands.

Thank You Rosario for a great service you and your staff did a great Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
La Jolla is a great place to have your wedding. The all-inclusive way, is the way to go. We didn’t have to go shopping around for flowers, liquor, catering, DJ, cake or decoration. They provide all the service and do an amazing job at it. The flowers and centerpieces were... Read More amazingly decorated, DJ Dunni (the house DJ) kept the party going all night long, and the cake was spectacular. The food can be improved but for us it was all about the party. Daniela, who is La Jollas’s wedding planner, is the best!!! She is sweet, knowledgeable, understanding, took care of us during the whole time before and after the party, and was able to advise us in every little detail. Overall, we recommend it 100%
La Jolla was the perfect venue for a beautiful 90th birthday party for my grandfather. This party was just as special to me, if not more special, than my wedding. Maria and her staff listened to my vision and helped execute it beautifully. More importantly, Maria came to... Read More understand the special significance that this event had for me and she made sure every detail was in place as I requested, and even surprised me with a few details of her own that blended in perfectly. I worked with all of La Jolla's vendors, except their florist. Despite the fact that I had purchased a package that included flowers, Maria was able to fairly accommodate my request to work with my own florist. The vendors I did work with were all wonderful, especially the cake bakery and the DJ. On the day of the event every last detail was in its place, either ahead of schedule or on time because of the team effort of the entire staff. Maria attended and managed the event with the assistance of Armando who is the manager of the event staff including caterers, bartenders, servers, etc. Armando was extremely pleasant, serviceable, and accommodating, and made the party a truly wonderful experience. If food is the detail that is important to you, then you must know that La Jolla's chef's / cooks / caterers are second to none! The food was delicious and let's be honest, for catered food, that was a huge surprise. I definitely expected the food to be good, but it was excellent! Not your typical catered bland wedding food at all. My 90 year old guest of honor grandfather who is a self-proclaimed tough to please food critic (and does not have much of an appetite to begin with) absolutely loved the food! He ate so well at his party and thoroughly enjoyed every detail of his special day. I could not have asked for a better day. La Jolla is a beautiful venue, both charming and elegant, fully equipped with a first class event staff who will help turn your vision into reality.
We could not have chosen a better venue to host the reception of our wedding. From the personalized service to the exquisite food everything was perfect. Maria Belen is an amazing, patient, and dedicated planner that will assist you from day 1 at La Jolla Ballrooms. All of the... Read More staff: bartenders, servers, DJ can deliver five star service through professionalism and commitment. They make each guest feel special despite of their age. I am a very organized person that has a hard time letting go, but I trusted Maria Belen and her abilities and she delivered the wedding of my dreams. Every time you call even if is multiple times a day she is always patient, always kind, and always willing to help. Maria Belen will never tell you NO for an answer she will make it happen. My husband and I picked this venue for its proximity to the church we got married in, for its hardwood flooring (I dislike banquet space with carpet), its service since before we signed the contract, its beautiful exterior facade, and its modern floor plan. If you are looking for a wedding venue in Miami and want five star personalized service give Maria Belen a call, she will help you every step of the way and you will never feel overwhelmed!
In love with La Jolla Ballroom since I entered here the first time My wedding was July 2 of 2016 and all the planning was perfect My Wedding Planer was Daniela and she was the best All the vendors since the florist to the cake and Dj Also the food was delicious all my west were...

I could not think of any other vendor that covers everything and makes your wedding day a dream come true! The staff and service was amazing and attentive during the wedding planning process and especially our wedding day! The food was amazing, the cake vendor was great, the DJ... Read More was so much fun and really worked with us to customize our reception. The florist absolutely made my vision come alive and took it up a couple of notches, he works wonders! Maria Belen, our day of planner and my go-to person throughout the planning process went above and beyond to answer any questions I had, help with any issues or requests and just made the whole process easier from how reliable and reassuring she was! I loved La Jolla and their professionalism.
My experience at la Jolla was AMAZING! The staff and their vendors went above and beyond to ensure that everything was better than perfect on my special day. Especially Daniela Zapata who took care of me since day one to help me plan and coordinate my destination wedding. Thanks...

I would 100% completely recommend la jolla and Daniela for your wedding! The food, music, service, ambiance and everything in between was more than what I wished for and the guests were delighted as well! Thanks Dani - Maria F Zubillaga
My wedding was an absolute success! From start to finish, Maria Belen from La Jolla Ballroom made sure everything was exactly as we discussed. She went out of her way to accommodate our ideas and she also had great suggestions of her own, like our fun Mojito Bar! The hors... Read More d'oeuvres, cocktails, dinner, and bar selection were all spectacular. The vendors included in the package were fantastic and very professional to work with leading up to the Big Day! The saxophone player, Raul Guzman, during the cocktail played beautiful and was very entertaining, all of my guests couldn't stop talking about him. DJ Duni made sure everyone was dancing the night away and helped me create the perfect timeline for the wedding, he was amazing. The flowers by Ricardo Morales were so beautiful. He created the perfect ambiance in the ballroom with the center pieces. I was IN LOVE with my bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets were also gorgeous. Our cake was elegant and delicious by cake designer Cynthia at E&M Sweets. Lastly, A Touch of Class provided the linens which brought it all together. I cannot thank everyone enough for making this special day so perfect and fun. I highly recommend this venue for any event. THANKS AGAIN!
Thank you so much! It was our pleasure making sure your day was perfect. We hope you consider us for other future events. We wish you lots of happiness!! Mariana M.
