We are so glad that we found La Jolla Ballroom, everything turned out better than expected. Thank you so much we are completely happy with your service.

La Jolla in Coral Gables. There’s a reason we didn’t visit a third venue. When we arrived at La Jolla we were truly impressed with the overall feel of the venue. It’s located in an historic building and it’s simple elegance shines through. We were blessed to work with Yanel, whom we felt an instant connection with. We relied heavily on Yanel for her input and wealth of suggestions for other vendors such as florists, cake bakers, DJs, musicians, officiants, and photographers. LaJolla made the planning flow seamlessly. We picked our table settings and decorations through a related vendor. We were able to look at as many table clothes and accessories as needed in order for us to feel comfortable with our selections. Yanel’s experience and professionalism proved to be invaluable to us. She was always a text or phone call away. She always provided prompt responses to the little things that popped up. Our food tasting was unforgettable. La Jolla offers a vast amount of culinary choices. After settling on our choices we were impressed by the way LaJolla and it’s staff made us feel. We had our rehearsal the week of the wedding. Yanel put us at ease and patiently explained what we should expect and what we needed to do. We were at ease because of Yanel…that alone is priceless during your wedding week. Next up was the big day. I had a sneak peek at the reception hall. Jaw dropping is the best way to describe what I saw. The tables looked exquisite. The bar was nicely stocked and resembled a bar at an exclusive club. The overall charm of LaJolla was everywhere I looked. Hours later, I showed up. Our guests were seated. The violinist Yanel suggested was playing beautifully. The area the ceremony was being held looked wonderful. We didn’t participate with the cocktail hour, but everyone I spoke to raved about the hors d’oeuvres and drinks. We were busy with photos and once again Yanel assisted us well. She ushered us around the venue with our photographer for some great photos. She also ensured we were fed hors d’oeuvres. The entire reception was special. The music and lighting were perfect. The temperature was ideal. The food was delicious and presented the exact same way as it had been at our tasting. I need to praise the LaJolla staff and servers. No one waited long for drinks from the bar. Water and wine glasses were constantly being refilled throughout the night. When it was finally over, the staff was still as pleasant as they had been from the start. In the end, many of our guests lingered because they had such a great time. Once again, Yanel and the staff were gracious. No one hurried us. We highly recommend LaJolla! You have to look long and hard to find a better overall venue. The personalized service at all stages cannot be easily duplicated. When you factor in the great value LaJolla offers, you would be wise to have your wedding at LaJolla too! We will forever be grateful for Yanel and the entire LaJolla staff! They each played a vital role in making our wedding day special!

aid if La Jolla looked like the photos in real life and the proposal stayed the same, we were going to book because our day was available. Well we got there an hour before our appointment (11:28 am) and we didn’t know where to park. My parents dropped my fiancé and I off so we could ask if we could be seen early or we could come back in an hour and go see another venue nearby that was walk-in. The lady said that she could see us now so we had my parents park in a metered parking space and then we all entered the lobby. She said she had someone upstairs in her office and she said she was the only one there and the ladies that I made the appointment with were not there. We said okay. Well she had us wait the entire hour. The appointment was at 12:30pm and she came down at 12:31pm. It sounded as if no one was with her because we would here the Echos and it was like if she was on the phone and didn’t see anyone else with her except for the maintenance gentleman who was very nice. When she came down she did not bring a folder or anything. When we asked a question she asked us what was on the proposal. I had to go on my phone to check the email for the proposal. When my dad asked about parking for guests, she acted as If she didn’t know and then said there were metered parking or a parking garage across the street or you could have valet for an additional $650.00. When asked about cocktail hour, she said guests would be brought into the lobby and taken to another room but never showed the room because it was under construction. The venue where the reception would be was empty with just a couple of chairs that were from outside but since the rain they brought it in and lounge furniture. At no time were there any photos shown of what the space would look like. No time were we taken to the office. My mom inquired about photos of the set-up so we could have an image and she told us that she would let us know when there was a wedding so we can see the set-up. Again, we told her initially that my fiancé and I were from out of town. It was an unfortunate visit because the venue is beautiful and has potential. It wasn’t what you’d expect from a Coral Gables venue. Very disappointing because we were excited to see this place. We ended up booking another venue that same day.
