Love this venue! Everyone is still talking about how beautiful it was, love how you can decorate however you feel
I'm so happy we found Luce on Kettner and hosted our wedding here! Our original wedding venue in downtown San Diego ghosted us during the pandemic, and Luce on Kettner generously t...
ook us in! Right from the start it felt so much better than our previous venue - Zach at Luce was friendly, communicative, transparent, and willing to help us in any way he could.
Apart from the great communication from Zach, the space itself is so gorgeous. It's a great blank canvas that has a really clean, urban feel in the heart of Little Italy (such a great location for guests!). We really appreciated the amenities of the building (nicely furnished groom suite, very cute bridal suite with a private bathroom, clean bathrooms for the guests, and air conditioning!) but also that we were able to bring in all of the other elements we wanted to personalize our event (tables, chairs, decor, etc.). We really appreciated the option of having our cocktail hour outdoors in the front parking lot while also keeping the giant doors open during the ceremony and reception to allow for a nice air flow to keep everyone safe and comfortable during the pandemic.
We loved having our wedding here and would definitely recommend it to any future couple!
Amazing staff and venue! Shawnta and Zach were so helpful and responsive through the entire planning process! Will definitely use luce for future events! The space was clean and th...
e bridal suite was so cute!
AN AMAZING VENUE!!! First and foremost, the kindest, easiest people to work with. They truly made our event feel like a top priority and made scheduling/payment as simple as can be...
. Next, the space is the perfect size to make any event feel special. The details like the sliding doors, wood wall, finished bathrooms, etc. made this an easy canvas for any decor (although, not much was needed in comparison to some of the other venues we viewed in San Diego). Their recommended vendors were incredible and saved us so much time. The sunset peeks through the windows and casts the most beautiful lighting on the space. Finally, my husband and I enjoyed the most stress-free, seamless wedding day because of the communication with vendors, the cleanliness of the space & the discrete back area that allowed for catering movement and outfit changes . Can't recommend enough!!
There are no words to express how grateful we were to find this Venue! Zack was there to help us pick up the pieces when our all inclusive fell through due to Covid! The staff and ...
the facility were top notch! Super responsive and communicative! Our guests thought that the space was awesome for a wedding reception!
THANK YOU, LORD FOR LUCE ON KETTNER! Planning a wedding during a pandemic? Stressful! Your original venue cancelling? Even more stressful! But Luce on Kettner was our saving grace!...
! We were only the second wedding ever (before the county re-shut down) at LoK and were obsessed with the space from the moment we laid eyes on it. It’s clean, classic, with just a hint of whimsey. This space is really what you want to make of it. We wanted a classic black and white wedding with a sense of comfort and ease. This space delivered! Zack was so easy to work with and was the consummate professional. Don’t be offended if he isn’t over the top stoked about your wedding though, he only gets excited once he sees the finished product. Even though this was not our original venue, we couldn’t be more thrilled with how it turned out!
