The hotel is an amazing place to have a wedding but it is VERY expensive and very hard to work with. There is a lot of red tape and no room for flexibility. The team worked with us but it was a very hard and took a long time long time to get oks on things. They require you to hire a wedding planner from their list and I hired Korie From Bliss Events who was amazing and really helped navigate all the red tape and make it a much easier process. I want to thank Whitney Taylor who works in the wedding department at the del and was really amazing to work with and really did every thing she needed to help us and make it an amazing event!

Hotel del is an absolutely gorgeous venue! The location is spectacular with ocean views and a historic hotel making a great backdrop to the big day. We had a whole weekend of events on the property (welcome smores on the beach, farewell brunch) and guests couldn't stop commenting about the location. We did our ceremony and cocktail hour on the Windor lawn (complete with lawn games and antique furniture) and the reception in the spectacular crown ballroom. Only a few comments that made it not 5 stars. 1) we had 3 different banquet coordinators during the course of our planning and they didn't communicate well. Also the banquet coordinator was separate from AV which was separate from booking, making communication difficult. If it weren't for my wedding coordinator and my mom staying on top of things, I feel like things might have gotten dropped. 2) Our food was spectacular but the tasting was fairly limited in what we were allowed to taste, so we ended up picking multiple items fo... Read morer our wedding that we hadn't tasted ahead of time.

We enjoyed every minute of our wedding at the Hotel Del Coronado. Gloria Thorpe, Catering Manager, was an extreme pleasure to work with. She made our dreams come true. She was really easy to work with and so friendly. Our complimentary rooms were amazing! The service was impeccable. Our reception couldn't have been more perfect!

Amazing atmosphere--will be returning here for Anniversaries to be sure! They have the best customer service and an absolutely stunning location.

Getting married at the Hotel Del was amazing. By far, not the cheapest option, but the level of service, quality, and of course location, really made everything worth it. The hotel itself is beautiful, but beyond that, the hotel staff really went above and beyond. Our wedding food was beyond amazing- all of our guests commented on how good everything was. Being a foodie type couple, and pretty picky, it was important to me not to serve mediocre food, and I couldn't have been happier. Also, the staff did a great job. Everything was flawless, and dinner was served on time, seamlessly. I ordered three vegetarian dishes, that were ready and delivered to the appropriate people, and again, I was impressed by the quality of the vegetarian meals, and that they weren't just a throw away salad. Our wedding was fairly small- we had 30 guests- and the hotel had 3 other, giant weddings happening at the same time. Despite all of the other events, we never felt like our wedding mattered l... Read moreess, and the property is large enough that we never really saw the other wedding events. If you are considering Coronado for your wedding venue, I highly recommend checking out the Hotel Del.

The venue & staff were AMAZING!!!! It was like a fairytale come true! Thank you!!

Hotel Del was a fantastic location for our wedding reception. The day couldn't have gone more perfect and smooth. Gloria was fantastic to wot with for catering and you pay for what you get. 5 star service, great staff, fantastic bar tenders. Everything was clean and organized!

This venue was great. They were so attentive to our needs. The grounds were beautiful and all of our guest were very impressed with view of the beach front ceremony.

Beautiful scenery! I always saw the beach weddings and had to do one as well

The food was fabulous. The venue was exceptional

I had my engagement party at Hotel Del this weekend. I can't say enough about how pleasant it was. We experienced terrific service and the team there was fantastic to work with. A great experience.

My experience with Hotel del Coronado was top-notch. The food they catered was delicious. All of the guests loved the food. Most importantly, my catering manager, Gloria Thorpe, was the best person to work with. She was very responsive and catered to each and every one of mine and my husband's questions and requests. She was essential in making our wedding special and memorable. The Del was also flexible in providing alternatives for the unpredictable rain that occurred on our wedding day. It ended up being beautiful despite being inside. The price is a bit steep; however, my husband and I were willing to shell out the cost for the memory. We both love the Del and all of the history and beauty it has to offer. It sits in a special place in our heart, and forever in our memory.

Absolutely wonderful venue. Ceremony and cocktail hour on beach and reception in Crown Room. Could not have been happier. Everything turned out perfectly.

I worked with Gloria and was absolutely thrilled with my small wedding at the Del. We rented the garden and had an intimate reception in the Windsor room; the Garden was beautiful and the room/room views were amazing. The Hotel Del team was professional and accommodating, and I am glad I chose the Del for our big day.
