Windows on the Water

energy. We had our ceremony and reception there without 105 people and the space felt very comfortable and smooth. 10/10 would highly recommend!!!

ting a destination wedding can be difficult but Paul, the GM at Windows on the Water, made the process seamless. Paul was open to all of our ideas and was accommodating and understanding as we went through the steps of creating the atmosphere we desired for the ceremony and reception. We had the ceremony room set up for 80 guests, a DJ, a four piece string ensemble, a beautiful garland canopy for the wedding party, cocktail tables and a stunning view of the water. The guests were welcomed by the Windows staff with signature cocktail and small bites. After the ceremony we enjoyed a cocktail hour with an open bar and passed appetizers. Guests enjoyed an amazing salad/soup, main entree, and dessert of choice. The evening closed with a wood fired pizza service. I cannot say enough about the level of customer service at Windows on the Water. It is apparent they all work as a team and everyone takes pride in the experience they provide for their guests. As for the kitchen, kudos to all, the food was incredible. Often when planning a large event, it's typical that the quality of the food will be nothing spectacular. At Windows on the Water the food was a fine dining experience. It was such a pleasure to hear everyone complimenting the kitchen. And we can’t forget the bar… Impeccable service and attention given to every drink served. No matter the weather conditions, you and all your guests will have a front row seat to the beauty of Morro Bay at Windows on the Water. We have been there during every season and there has always been a spectacular view from every room. The venue also provides beautiful outdoor spaces for photos and gathering. The restaurant has soaring ceilings that are accented with beautiful drapery. Large windows, rich wood and four extra large round chandeliers lend a beautiful and simple canvas for a reception and ceremony. Whatever your style, the possibilities are endless with this beautiful space and decor. We did choose to bring in a dance floor, disco ball, round tables, chair covers, florals and lighting. In the evening the restaurant looked like something out of a magazine! We cannot say enough about how memorable the evening was made by the amazing Windows on the Water staff and this picturesque venue.

d to make our day special. We met with Paul in person multiple times to go over the details of the day. We were attended to with open ears and genuine care throughout the many months leading up to our wedding day. We had easy contact via phone call and email with Paul. He was always a phone call away! The food, location, and vibes within the restaurant are top tier. All of our guests raved about how delicious the food was. The bar placement, outdoor patio, and STUNNING view allowed for our guests to be mobile and enjoy themselves fully. Do not worry about the “small” size or the venue being indoors. The floor to ceiling windows make you feel like you’re quiet literally vibing on top of the ocean. We had our first dance in the smaller room of the two (you’re able to rent the entire restaurant or half) and the sun set beautifully through the windows during it! If you’re concerned about only renting one room, don’t be. This place is truly special and intimate. Guests felt comfortable to get their groove on because of the intimacy and warmth of the place (unlike some dance floors that can be out in the open and somewhat isolated). We were given a recommended DJ list and John Ortiz was the best route - so grateful to have gone with him! I know this is a long review, I’m just genuinely over the moon that we found this place and want others to enjoy it’s magic! For an affordable, memorable, BEAUTIFUL, easy to plan wedding, Windows on the Water is for you!!

essional and flexible. Paul treated us like his own family and was eager to accommodate our requests. we got many compliments from our guests on the delicious food. We had 99 people eating for dinner and they all fit perfectly in the larger bay room, and we had the DJ and dancing in the vineyard room. As a bride I would say this is the perfect size group for the venue to handle, as no logistics/ rearranging need to take place during the wedding night. I highly recommend!

feel like royalty for our 15 years vowel renewal. Our family couldn't stop talking about the great service and how that was the best food they ever had. We highly recommend This Venue for any of your special occasions.

ts and requests. Paul was there for us for all our needs and his staff!!! From the moment we started planning our special day, to the very ending! The venue is beautiful, the food is impeccable, and the service is above and beyond. Not only did they seamlessly help our special day run flawlessly, but they even brought the magic to make our wedding truly a day to remember! It has been a year since our wedding and our guests still rave about the food and experience they had. Paul and his staff truly are amazing and I am so thankful we chose their venue!!!! It is now a regular place we visit as often as possible and we are actually on our way right now to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary!!! I highly recommend this venue, you certainly will not regret it!!!!!

aff were professional, and so kind. A few fan favorites from the evening: 3 course meal, lobster bisque, steak dinner and cheesecake for dessert! Highly recommend

remony and reception in one place, which was very convenient for us and our guests. The ceremony room had a stunning view of the bay, and the glow through the windows illuminated our special moment. The meal was delicious, and everybody sang praise about how good all of their food was, especially the steak. There is plenty of space in the restaurant for dancing, and we had a crowd dance all night long. We were blown away by how easy and seamless the whole process was. Paul (General Manager) was very communicative and accommodating. He was helpful through the whole process, as he made our plans come to life. I would 100% recommend others to get married here, if you are looking for a majority of the main necessities to be taken care of and for great quality. Thank you so much to Paul and his staff!

nd a better venue than Windows on the Water. It sits right on top of the bay and has floor-to-ceiling windows, which make for stunningly beautiful views (and reduce the amount of decorations needed for the space, because the view IS the decoration!). Paul, the general manager, is a wedding expert and was incredibly helpful every step of the way. He's been hosting weddings at Windows for many years and really knows his stuff, so he gave us a lot of great recommendations and suggestions throughout the planning process. He was professional, friendly, and very responsive. Our other vendors were able to coordinate with Paul to drop items off ahead of time, and an extra special touch was that Paul's staff cleaned up the space for us after our reception ended. All we had to do was get our decorations into our vehicles (and they helped with that, too!). It really made for a seamless and stress-free experience, for which we are extremely grateful. Lastly, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the food. My husband and I ate dinner at the restaurant before we booked it as our wedding venue, and the fresh, high quality food really sealed the deal for us! We've been to a lot of weddings with bad/tasteless food, so having good food at our wedding was important to us. Paul coordinated with his head chef to work out the perfect custom menu for our guests, and dinner was served tableside by his staff. We had such a memorable experience, thanks in large part to Paul and his team at Windows on the Water. We already loved visiting Morro Bay, but now we're actively planning to stop by Windows on the Water during future trips-- and I've heard some of our wedding guests talking about doing the same!
