We’re so glad we booked The Crossings at Carlsbad a year and a half in advance — it was one of the best decisions we made! Working with Lauren and her amazing team was truly effortless. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel seamless.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with panoramic views that range from the ocean to lush greenery and trees. Our bridal suite was spacious, modern, and incredibly comfortable — the perfect place to get ready. The food? Delicious. The drinks? Even better! We had 188 guests and the reception space fit everyone perfectly, creating such a lively, full atmosphere.
Another highlight: the wedding package we chose included cake and desserts from VG Bakery — a true San Diego classic. Guests raved about the sweets, and we loved that it added a local, nostalgic touch to the celebration.
We’re still getting compliments from guests saying it’s one of their favorite venues they’ve ever been to. #nobigdeal

From the very first interaction to the final moments of our wedding night, this venue and its staff exceeded every expectation imaginable. The team was genuinely kind, attentive, and incredibly accommodating at every step of the process. They truly went out of their way to make our vision come to life, whether that meant patiently answering every question, negotiating terms, or working with us on add-ons to ensure our day was exactly what we dreamed of.
The level of care and professionalism they showed made the entire planning experience feel seamless and stress-free. We never once felt like “just another booking” — we felt valued, heard, and supported throughout.
The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. Every space is stunning and created the most magical atmosphere for our wedding. On top of that, the food was made in-house and was nothing short of phenomenal. Not only was it beautifully presented, but it was genuinely delicious — our guests are still talking about it!
If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines beauty, exceptional service, and incredible food, look no further. We are endlessly grateful to this team for helping make our wedding day truly unforgettable. 🤍

We recently got married at The Crossings on 10/25/25 and it was truly the best day ever. Our journey with them started in July 2024, when we had a meeting with Megan. What an amazing human, inside and out. She was so sweet, answered all of our questions, and truly helped us see the vision if we chose to move forward. We walked through the space, were able to see getting ready rooms (which are amazing and very spacious). My husband and I knew at the end of the meeting that this was our venue. This was the perfect blend for us, as ceremony was held outside with an ocean view but we could create a beautiful, fall and rustic feel that I was envisioning, along with an indoor/outdoor space for cocktail hour and inside reception space.
Megan was so responsive with emails, answering my thousands of questions, open to my crazy ideas and helped me bounce ideas off her. She was a calming presence for me day of, as she knew I was worried about some family conflicts, but she was there for me just like any of my bridesmaids were. She was such a dream to work with and I could not recommend her enough if you choose this venue.
Our guests were so awed with the beauty of the venue, the views, the food, EVERYTHING. Wedding food can get a bad wrap but let me tell you, the food was a huge talking point for our guests and how much they loved it. Pictures of this place are beautiful but they don’t do it justice.
I cannot say enough great things about Megan, her assistant Maddie, all the staff and the venue. Everyone was so amazing and worked so seamlessly together to create our vision and also cleaned up/turned over the space so quickly and with ease. This team truly knows what they are doing and have it down to a tee. Thank you Crossings for making our wedding day truly a dream come true!

The is by far the best venue in San Diego! We looked at many venues but without a doubt, The Crossings had everything we wanted from ocean views, on site Bridal/Groom suites, all inclusive packages, and the best team around! Our onsite coordinator, Lauren, was the absolute best! She was always on top of answering emails as well as helping guide us along the way. She went above and beyond with everything! On the day of, we also had the privilege of working with Madison who was just as amazing as Lauren! They made everything run smoothly and we couldn’t have asked for anything different. All the team/staff at The Crossings go above and beyond to make sure the day runs smoothly. Could not recommend this venue enough!

The Crossings is a beautiful venue and the inclusive packages made wedding planning pretty easy and stress-free. We had the most incredible wedding day, and we owe so much of that to our fantastic day-of coordinator, Lauren. From the very beginning, she was so sweet and made us feel completely at ease. Throughout the planning process, she was always very responsive to our emails and patiently answered all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, Lauren was an absolute rockstar. She was on top of every single detail, making sure everything ran smoothly and perfectly on time. Because of her, we were able to just relax and be present on our special day without a single worry. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Lauren as our coordinator and can't recommend her enough! She truly helped make our day perfect.
Thank you Lauren, Maddy and the entire team at The Crossings for helping make our dream wedding come true!

We interviewed many venues and I think for the cost to benefit ratio, The Crossings definitely exceeded expectations. Megan was a fabulous day of coordinator with Bella helping her along the way and also doing amazingly. I was so grateful to have people who knew what they were doing to help me plan my wedding from far away. They were professional, approachable and easy to work with.
The venue was fabulous and set up as expected. Everyone raved about the food and they accommodated allergies without hesitation.
The venue was beautiful and had all the amenities one could need. We went with the middle package which was plenty. We were able to upgrade the bar and a couple things individually to still stay within the food and beverage minimum.
Bridal suite was fantastic, groom's suite only downside no bathroom but they had one which was wonderful
Great pictures taken down on the golf course at golden hour and the guests had a fabulous time taking pictures with the sunset.
Late night bites were DELICIOUS and raved about.
Taxes/fees definitely made it cost an additional $10,000 (so eyes wide open) but almost all venues we encountered do this so it appears industry standard.
All in all, a 10/10 wedding. Nothing is perfect but the vibes, ambiance and guest commentary was nothing short of sublime.
Thanks Megan, Bella and team :)

My husband and I got married at The Crossings this summer–we cannot say enough positive things about our experience working with the team at The Crossings, especially Lauren Lee who was our day-of coordinator! When we began looking at venues, I came across The Crossings here on the Knot because they do smaller weddings (we had 31 people). We met with Lauren for an informational meeting and had no idea what kinds of questions to ask her, but she was so warm and shared several options with us--one of them being hosting us in their Fireside Room for our dinner reception. We were able to have our ceremony on the lawn and cocktail hour on the outdoor patio. The on-site bridal and groom suites were perfect to get ready in; they even have breakfast & lunch prepared onsite and delivered which made logistics so much easier. The food was fabulous (the cabernet braised short ribs were a HUGE hit) and drink options were perfect.
We’re so grateful we were able to work with Lauren leading up to and on our wedding day. Her passion, expertise and professionalism shine through and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. Thank you to the entire Crossings team for making sure our wedding felt effortless, memorable, and fun!!!

If I could give 100 stars I would! The Crossings is the most beautiful venue with an ocean view for the ceremony and a beautiful space for the reception. In addition to it being a beautiful venue, they were SO EASY to work with. The experience working with the staff at the Crossings was completely stress-free, which is just what you need on your big day. Lauren was our coordinator and I can’t say enough good things about her! She was so friendly, helpful, and kind from the start. Throughout the year process of working with her, she made everything so easy for us because she was so organized and on top of everything. She asked us what we wanted and helped us with decision making using her amazing expertise when we weren’t sure about some things. She kept all of our decisions in order and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. On the day of, she was our coordinator and made sure everything was set up perfectly and the day ran so smoothly. We had the best day ever, in huge part to Lauren and her team that ran the show!!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to have our wedding at The Crossings! From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was something special. The location is absolutely stunning, and the team behind the scenes is just as incredible.
Throughout the entire planning process, the staff was professional, responsive, and so easy to work with. We primarily worked with Sandy, Megan, and Maddie. Megan was our coordinator and was incredibly responsive to all of our questions throughout the long planning process and was always patient, thoughtful, and supportive. She helped us stay on track, work within our budget, and make decisions that felt right for our style and priorities. Both Megan and Maddie took the time to understand our vision and made it come to life beautifully.
On the wedding day, Megan and Maddie were total pros. Everything ran smoothly and on time, and they made sure we felt supported and cared for from start to finish. It allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment of the day without stress. Also the food was incredibly delicious, it was the best food we had at a wedding. Our guests said the same too!
We are so grateful to The Crossings team for making our day unforgettable.

We had the best day and cannot recommend The Crossings enough!

We cannot express how amazing this venue was to work with! We truly cannot thank Megan enough for the incredible job she did coordinating our wedding. From start to finish, she was organized, calm, and completely in control, allowing us to actually enjoy the day we had spent so long planning.
Our wedding day turned out absolutely perfect — better than we could have ever imagined — and so much of that is thanks to Megan. She handled every detail with care and professionalism, made everything run smoothly behind the scenes, and was always one step ahead. Her communication throughout the process was clear and timely, and on the day itself, she made sure everything flowed effortlessly even with our last minute changes!
If you’re lucky enough to work with Megan, know that you’re in the best hands. She truly went above and beyond — and we are endlessly grateful.
Highly, highly recommend!

The Crossings team was top notch. From an open communication and coordination with our fantastic wedding coordinator, Lauren, to the elegant castle-like look of the venue, to the tasty food selections and great service, we had it all! Having our big day event at this venue made a world of a difference, and we soaked in every moment of it! Lauren made everything so smooth and easy, keeping me on track every step of the day. The bridal suite was so spacious and comfy! We absolutely enjoyed everything! A big plus for my family was the kids’ food. We had about 20 kids attending, and they had a blast! Such a wonderful day that will leave an indelible mark on us for days to come. Thank you, Lauren and your team, for going above and beyond to make our day so unforgettable!

From the very beginning, The Crossings at Carlsbad exceeded every expectation we had when it came to planning our wedding. From the first tour to the final send-off on our wedding night, the entire team was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. Their hospitality made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire planning process.
A huge part of what made our experience so special was our phenomenal coordinator, Megan Weber. Megan is truly a gem—organized, responsive, detail-oriented, and just an absolute joy to work with. She guided us every step of the way, answering every email and question (and there were many!) with patience and care. Megan has a gift for turning your vision into a reality, and we always felt like we were in the most capable hands. She kept us on track, made helpful suggestions, and ensured the day flowed seamlessly from start to finish.
The rest of the staff was just as incredible. Maddy, along with the entire event team, brought such positive energy and professionalism on the day of our wedding. Everyone worked together so effortlessly behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly—and it truly did. The service was impeccable, and every guest we spoke to had only wonderful things to say about how beautiful and well-organized everything was.
And the venue itself? Absolutely STUNNING. The views are breathtaking, the ceremony and reception spaces are elegant yet inviting, and the natural beauty of the grounds adds so much magic to the day. We could not imagine getting married anywhere else—it felt like something out of a dream.
Our wedding day was truly perfect, and we owe so much of that to Megan and the entire team at The Crossings. If you're searching for a venue that is not only beautiful but filled with people who genuinely care about making your day everything you've hoped for and more, look no further. We are endlessly grateful.

We cannot express enough how much we loved having our wedding at The Crossings Carlsbad! Where do we begin? First of all, Lauren and her team were incredibly professional and genuinely friendly. We especially appreciated the separate getting-ready rooms for the groom and groomsmen, as well as the bride and bridesmaids.
And the view — absolutely breathtaking! All of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the venue was, which made us feel so proud. They also kept raving about the food, saying it was the best they’ve ever had at a wedding. Even the best man admitted it was better than the food at his own wedding!
We truly cannot thank everyone at The Crossings enough for giving us such unforgettable memories.

Not only did her and her team handle all the logistics seamlessly, but they were also incredibly attentive and proactive, anticipating our needs before we even asked. Lauren kept us on track with the timeline leading up to the day and was always so responsive when we had questions.
On the day of the wedding, Lauren ensured everything ran smoothly, managing vendors, guests, and any last-minute changes with such grace and professionalism. Her calm demeanor and constant communication took so much stress off us, allowing us to truly enjoy our big day without worrying about a thing.
Our guests had an amazing time and loved the views, the food, and the overall atmosphere of The Crossings. There was plenty of parking and our guests especially loved the late night bites before they headed out!

I can not think of a better wedding venue. We initially worked with Sandy, and then made our way to working with the most amazing coordinator Megan! She was so easy to work with, accommodating, and so professional. I could not have picked anyone better to help us on our big day! Not to mention day of you get 2 coordinators, we worked with Maddie as well and she was also a rockstar. They made the perfect team! Not only was the staff amazing, but the service was top notch, from the wait staff, to the chefs, to the bartenders, everyone was so great & such a pleasure to work with! When I tell you we did not have to worry about a thing I mean it. I would do my wedding here again in a heartbeat ! Thank you!

We had our wedding at The Crossings in October, and it was absolutely perfect! The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful views and a welcoming atmosphere, but what really made the experience exceptional was Lauren, the Sales Manager.
From the start, Lauren went above and beyond to make our wedding planning process smooth and stress-free. She met with us regularly, was super flexible with all our requests, and always made us feel like a priority. Her supplier recommendations were spot-on and made finding vendors so much easier. Lauren’s professionalism, organization, and genuine care for making our day perfect truly shone through.
On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly thanks to Lauren and the amazing team at The Crossings. We were able to relax and enjoy every moment knowing we were in great hands. If you're considering this venue for your wedding or any event, we can’t recommend it enough—Lauren and the team will make sure your day is as special and memorable as ours was!

We worked with Megan and she was so kind from our very first meeting to the end of our event. She really helped with every detail and making sure we were prepared for our special day!

Working with Lauren at The Crossings was fantastic! The Crossings as a venue was such a breeze, they have many of the items you would otherwise have to rent, plus with their package you get the venue, the food, and the desert. not only that but unlike most wedding food, it was actually very good. We loved how easy it was to have everything we needed in one place, with very minimal need for outside vendors. Lauren was so easy to work with and answered all of our questions very quickly and thoughtfully. You can tell this wasn't the first wedding that she has worked on! The venue itself is beautiful and there was very minimal need for extra decoration. Our wedding at the Crossings was a magical day!

We had the BEST experience with our October 2024 wedding at the Crossings. We first toured in August 2023, before we really knew what we wanted in a wedding venue. Megan Weber was warm, inviting, and helped us to clearly understand what they offered. We continued to tour venues but ultimately knew the Crossings was the perfect place for us due to the location, cost, and what they included! We were having a small wedding, 50 total guests and the Fireside Room was the perfect fit for us. Megan continued to be so genuine throughout the booking and planning process. We thought planning the wedding ourselves was going to be stressful, but Megan made it so simple! She was quick to answer any questions we had, provided us options, and ensure the day would be exactly as we imagined. Day of, I couldn’t have been more relaxed. Megan and Maddy set up the space exactly how I had hoped and ensured the day ran smoothly. I’m so glad we went with the Crossings for our wedding day, I couldn’t have imagined it anywhere else!

I absolutely loved our venue and wedding at The Crossings. The entire process was completely stress free and it was everything we ever wanted. We found this venue on the knot and wanted something close to the beach but not on the water. I read many of the reviews and noticed how everyone seemed to really love this place. We booked our first appointment and met with Sandy who broke down all the packages and reviewed any questions we might have had. There was a July 4th promotion at the time which included upgrades as well. The moment we walked away from the appointment my husband and I knew we wanted to book. The venue is beautiful, and the place just felt warm and welcoming. Once we booked, Megan was assigned to us as our day of coordinator. I can’t say enough amazing things about Megan, she is kind, sweet, fun, and extremely helpful. She laid out everything we need to know and decisions to make over the next few months. I asked her for her personal feedback on many decisions and she was always willing to help! Our communication was solid from day one, again talk about stress free!! Megan constantly responded to our emails, and communicated every bit of detail. On the day of, we also had Maddie helping out. I saw both of them constantly helping out and guiding our guests, checking on us and ensure we were sticking to our timeline. I even saw them pouring water for our guest and helping the wait staff walking out food. Now thats teamwork! I really appreciated them both for a great day. I also want to compliment the entire staff as well, I was able to meet the new manager, some golf staff, and clean up crew that day and I appreciates every single persons helpfulness, professionalism, and positivity!
The food we went with was the filet mignon and the chicken for our guests to choose. Hands down, best filet ever. Our guests raved about how great the food was and I personally will be going back because I still think about it. My guests really loved the venue as well, constantly complimenting the entire day and how seamless it was. They thought everything went extremely smooth and it really did! We are still getting compliments! Hands down this venue was the best decision ever. This place fit everything we were looking for and more and they Nailed it! Thank you to The Crossings for such a memorable day!

Couldn't have been more perfect! We loved everything about our wedding and the team at The Crossings did a phenomenal job from the setup, to drinks, to dinner, to cleanup/end. We loved the outdoor space, cocktail hour at sunset on the terrace, then indoor reception. Feels silly but they also had plenty of (clean) restrooms so guests weren't waiting in line throughout the night. Parking lot was so easy and close to the entrance for older guests. Entire venue is so spacious for a larger guest count without feeling cramped at all.
Special shoutout to Lauren who was one of the reasons we especially loved The Crossings for our wedding. When we first met Lauren at the venue tour, we were refreshed to meet someone so bubbly, friendly, and easy to talk to. We were thrilled when we found out she would be our Day Of Coordinator because we knew we'd be in good hands for a day that meant so much to us. Lauren was so professional, organized, made the entire process so seamless, low stress, and truly answered any and all of our silly questions without ever making us feel like a burden. We're so grateful to her and the rest of The Crossings team for helping to bring our wedding dreams to life!! <3

Our experience with The Crossings at Carlsbad was absolutely exceptional, largely due to the outstanding service provided by Megan, our venue coordinator. From the moment we booked two years in advance, Megan consistently went above and beyond. Despite us not being local to the area, Megan made scheduling meetings effortless by accommodating our needs with flexibility.
Megan's attention to detail and proactive communication ensured every question was answered promptly, eliminating unnecessary back-and-forth. Her creative ideas and thoughtful recommendations enriched our planning process, making it both enjoyable and efficient. She truly served as a valuable sounding board throughout our planning.
On our wedding day, the entire staff at The Crossings demonstrated the same level of excellence. The servers were not only professional but also incredibly kind, ensuring us and our guests were well taken care of. The food was outstanding and received rave reviews from everyone. The bartenders were attentive and patient, contributing to the relaxed atmosphere. One of the highlights of our day was taking a golf cart tour and having someone from the Crossings guiding us and our photographer to the best locations for couple’s photos!
Overall, Megan and The Crossings at Carlsbad exceeded our expectations and played a pivotal role in making our wedding day truly special. Their dedication and expertise made the entire experience seamless and memorable. We cannot recommend them enough!

Getting married at The Crossings was a literal dream come true. From the moment we spoke to Lauren (Lee), we knew that we had found our venue. Lauren made everything so easy and stress-free for us. The entire process felt so seamless, and Lauren always stayed one step ahead of us and ensured all of our questions were answered. We feel so lucky to have had such a warm, kind, and professional wedding coordinator. Not to mention the rest of the team (shout out to Maddie who was on top of everything throughout the day, and even recorded the ceremony for my mother-in-law on her IPad at the last minute) who worked their asses off to make the day as perfect as possible for us. The day flew by, but everything was so much easier knowing that the Crossings team had our back, and left us nothing to worry about. We can't thank the team at The Crossings enough for the amazing day that they helped us create. We will be forever grateful to these people and this incredible establishment

We had an absolutely amazing wedding at the crossings! The venue was beautiful and had so many spots to take great photos. We had multiple guests say that it was the best wedding food they've ever had. Our amazing coordinator Lauren and the whole crossings team made the whole process so simple. We planned the wedding from out of town and Lauren made sure everything went seamlessly for us. We showed up day of and everything was set up perfectly!
We could not have asked for a better venue or a team of people ensuring we had the perfect day. We can't thank the crossings and Lauren enough! -Nick and Kate

Lauren made the entire wedding planning experience so delightful and easy for me. She is so kind and it felt like she put as much care and attention to detail into my wedding as she would her own. We also had Maddy join us on the day of to assist in coordination and she was an amazing addition. The venue itself is gorgeous and numerous friends and family were raving about how dinner was the best wedding food they’d ever had! The Crossings now has a special place in my heart and we are so thankful for the experience we had.

Choosing The Crossings for our wedding ceremony and reception was the best decision in the wedding planning process. My husband wanted a golf course venue and The Crossings was the perfect place. The outside venue for the ceremony is gorgeous with the golf course/ocean back drop, the patio for cocktail hour offers just as amazing views and the ballroom for the reception is beautiful. The food at The Crossings is just as amazing as the food; our guests are still telling us how good it was. We had breakfast and lunch for the bridal party while getting ready, appetizers during cocktail hour, dinner and late-night bites and everything tasted so good.
We were lucky to have Megan as our venue coordinator. She is so friendly and professional; we couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator. She is great at putting any stressed-out bride-to-be at ease and made the process from start to finish fantastic. I would highly recommend Megan as your coordinator; she’s the best.
The bride and groom suites that are on site are fantastic and its so nice being able to get ready at the venue and not have the worry about change of locations. The bridal suite is especially great with the hair and makeup area and how spacious it is.

Choosing The Crossings as our wedding venue was the best decision we could have made for our special day! Not only are the grounds stunning with perfect spots for both the ceremony and reception, but working with our wedding coordinator Megan was an absolute dream.
From the very beginning, Megan was super easy to work with. She brought an incredible, comforting energy that made the whole wedding planning process enjoyable. Her attention to detail was nothing short of amazing. Megan made sure that every part of the venue was set up perfectly and that each segment of the day transitioned smoothly into the next. Thanks to her, we didn't have to worry about a thing on our wedding day except enjoying ourselves.
Megan truly went above and beyond to make our day special. Her professional yet warm demeanor made us feel like we were in safe hands from start to finish. Thanks to Megan and The Crossings, our wedding was not only beautiful but also unforgettable.
I highly recommend The Crossings to any couple looking for a picturesque venue coupled with top-notch coordination. Megan, thank you for everything! You helped create our perfect day, and we are eternally grateful.

The Crossings was the perfect choice of venue for my husband and I. From the oceans views, to the large cozy ballroom, to the day-of set up; every detail was amazing! Our day of coordinator, Lauren Lee, was so sweet, detailed, and organized: a true pleasure to work with! Couldn’t have asked for a better day.

My husband and I recently got married at the Crossings at Carlsbad and had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren. We can't sing her praises enough. From the moment we walked in, her warmth and accommodating nature made us feel like old friends. Lauren's attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our wedding was flawless. She seamlessly collaborated with our wedding planner and we were able to enjoy every single moment of our wedding.
The venue is stunning and everything flows effortlessly. The bridal suite is beautiful and convenient, there was plenty of space for 7 of us to do our glam. We ordered both breakfast and lunch to the suite which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day without coordinating transportation or food orders. And let's not forget about the dinner - the filet mignon was such a hit, even the dinner rolls had guests raving! Thank you, Lauren and the entire Crossings Team, for your dedication and for making our special day absolutely perfect.
We are so lucky to be able to come back for golf and brunch to relive the memories.

When me and my husband first toured The Crossings venue - we instantly knew this place was the one we were going to pick. Working with Lauren was amazing! She was responsive and always was so helpful. The view and just this entire venue spoke volumes. It is completely gorgeous and we had so many compliments from our guests about the venue alone. The staff/service during our wedding was great. Everyone was prompt, professional, and friendly. The food was also amazing!! Thank you so much to everyone at the Crossings, especially Lauren, for making our dream wedding come true. We recommend this venue so much! We are just so thankful and we wish we can re-do our wedding at this beautiful spot again and again!!

Our wedding at The Crossings on February 17th, 2024, was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, we knew we had found the perfect venue for our special day. The picturesque setting provided a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and reception, with lush greenery and elegant architecture that exceeded our expectations.
The staff at The Crossings went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, from the initial planning stages to the last dance of the evening. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our experience made the entire process seamless and stress-free.
The catering service was exceptional, with a delicious menu that impressed all of our guests. The team flawlessly executed our vision, turning our dream wedding into a reality.
We cannot thank The Crossings, especially Lauren and Sandy, enough for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. If you're looking for a venue that offers unparalleled beauty, exceptional service, and memories to last a lifetime, look no further than The Crossings. Five stars doesn't seem like enough to express our gratitude for such an incredible experience.

My husband and I fell in love with the crossings venue when we did our first walk through with Lauren. We had our ceremony and reception at the crossings and everything went AMAZING! Lauren was there every step of the way to guide us and answer any questions we had. She also tag teamed with my wedding planner and made sure that everything was perfect the day of the wedding. Lauren took us to the golf course for our pictures and we got the best shots!! Thank you to the team at the crossings and Lauren for making our wedding experience a memorable one!

We had our ceremony offsite, but used The Crossings for getting ready, cocktail hour, and reception. Crossings Coordinator (Catering Sales Manager) Lauren was more helpful than the wedding planner we paid extra for! If you are someone who wants to manage every detail, you've got plenty of options here! And if you're someone like me who did not want to make aallll of the decisions (like how you want the napkins folded!), Lauren was so helpful!!! She emphasized the things we said were important to us and took care of the other details that we were less concerned about. We added on an open bar & late night snacks- our guests were obsessed! I loved that this venue was transparent about costs right from the beginning. The packages are very customizable so you can get exactly what you're looking for. Again, I can't say enough nice things about Lauren who helped make this day exactly what we wanted and for the awesome staff who took care of us like we were old friends!

Absolutely amazing!! Lauren Lee, our coordinator, was very organized but also relaxed and provided a calming yet detailed presence. The venue is stunning and with Lauren's decorating expertise, it really allowed my husband and I to just enjoy the wedding planning process and the wedding day! We could not be happier with our wedding and we highly recommend the Crossings to all couples looking for a gorgeous, sophisticated, and amazing wedding!

I don't think I can say enough about how incredible the Crossings was as a wedding venue. The inside is beautiful. The backdrop for the ceremony overlooks the ocean. The food was delicious, we chose salmon and steak. The get ready rooms on-site were spacious and nice. The entire staff was friendly and hard working from the day we booked and through the event. Lauren was my wedding planner and she crushed it. She was sweet, a good communicator, and made the day of flow so smoothly, I had nothing to worry about. Staff set-up and took down everything for us day of so we could enjoy the entire event. I suggest choosing the upgrades of market lighting and chivari chairs, as it really transformed the room. They made my wedding incredible and I highly recommend for anyone in their venue hunt.

I married my best friend on 11.18.23 and the day was perfect because of this venue, our incredible coordinator MEGAN, and the unreal staff that came together for two strangers.
We had been dreaming of this day for a long time but never really knew where to begin. We met with Sandy on 11/28/22 and we told her all of our ideas. She tallied up a spread sheet with costs and showed us every option. By the next day we were calling to sign contracts and book our date. Sandy CC'd us into an email with Megan and she immediately greeted us and sent us a wedding planning packet to make it even easier on us. From that point on every email & question was answered.
We didn't have to worry about linens, chairs, tables, glassware, utensils, alcohol, or food. All was taken care of by the venue. They even include a budget within your deposit for the bakery they partner with, "VG Bakery." We were able to get a two tiered cake and an entire dessert bar! Our guests raved about the desserts and Megan even boxed us up a platter to take home.
Megan walked us through a food tasting and later a final walk through the week before the wedding. Each time I was greeted with arms wide open and the most excited smile. Any worries or stresses were gone by the time I left the venue (and I was able to plan with very little stresses because they make it so easy)!
The day of our rehearsal, Megan was able to coordinate THIRTY FIVE people. She seamlessly showed everyone their role. I unloaded all of my DIY projects into one of their rooms and Megan walked through every single piece of it with me to make sure she knew exactly where we wanted it. From that point on, I had zero responsibilities or worries. I just got to show up to the best day of my life knowing Megan was taking care of everything.
The day of the wedding she was somehow every where and any where before you even knew you needed her. It was pouring rain and the staff had all of our chairs covered. By the time the rain stopped, they made it look like it never happened. The bridal suite and grooms suite are beautiful and so spacious! I love that the bridal suite has a closed off outdoor area for more space. We fit 1 bride, 11 bridesmaids, 4 moms, 3 flower girls, and 4 hair and makeup artists with space to spare. The venue provided food for all of us. They have speakers, tv's, and they even have a steamer!
Our ceremony was perfect, thanks to The Crossings.
Once it was done, the bridal party was greeted with champagne. My husband and I got to drive our own golf cart following Sandy to other parts along the venue to take our couple pictures.
The reception was incredible. THE FOOD! A week later and we still haven't stopped hearing people sharing about how incredible the food was. We chose the flat iron steak and seabass options. We also highly suggest the "late night bites," we surprised our guests with pretzel bites and everyone loved it!
The next day the two of us went back to our venue for our own lunch. The bartenders came out to see us and the chefs came to shake our hands. The heart that goes into this venue is unmatched. We felt like our day was just as important to each of them. The hardwork and attention to detail did not go unnoticed and we will always be grateful!
A huge thank you to every person who helped us with our day!
To Megan! We miss you already. Thank you for making all of our dreams come true. You were meant for this job!

My wife Jenn and I got married at The Crossings on Oct 28th ‘23. It was an amazing day from start to end. Our coordinator, Lauren Lee, was so helpful, organized and had so many great ideas and willing to listen to some of our funny ideas we had. We planned our wedding in 5 months and the process with the crossings was so smooth especially with the help from Lauren. The facility was beautiful, the food was great and the entire staff was so helpful in making our day enjoyable. We would definitely recommend The Crossings and Lauren, we had a day we’ll never forget!

My wife Britney and I got married here on October 20th, 2023, and it was an absolutely amazing experience at such an affordable price!
Our coordinator Lauren Lee, was the most amazing coordinator we could have asked for, she did not only do everything to make our day go so smoothly, but on a personal level she really connected with us and made us really feel so comfortable for the whole process from start to finish, it really feels like we made a FRIEND on top of having a coordinator we loved! Our doors are always open to her! We love you Lauren! Please come see us when you are in Michigan!
The staff, set up, clean up, bartenders, and everyone else involved were amazing, the drinks during he reception were perfectly balanced, (not too strong not too weak) so you didn't have to keep running back up to the bar and it really felt like we were getting what we paid for.
Our ceremony site was so breathtaking and magical thanks to the set up crew and venue. Again I cannot express how affordable this was for element of a wedding it was! We would 100% recommend this venue to anyone in the Southern California area if you want a one stop do all location!
We could not have been happier about the layout, personnel involved, and again how easy everything was for us. Huge thank you to everyone who made our day SO special
Love Britney and Max Rogowski

We got married at the crossings on 9.22.23 and had the most incredible experience. The venue was beautiful, food was amazing, and the bridal & groom suites were perfect spots to get ready. We can’t say enough about our coordinator, Megan, who went out of her way to make sure everything was taken care of from day one. She was clear with communication and was always timely in answering our questions leading up to the big day. The day of the wedding was stress free because of Megan and her team- they set up our decor beautifully, broke everything down, and handled any hiccups in between so that our day was seamless. Multiple guests came up to us after the wedding to mention our amazing coordinator. We are so grateful for the venue and all of their amazing staff for making our wedding day so special!
