Carlsbad Windmill

BY WEDGEWOOD WEDDINGS

The iconic Carlsbad Windmill, located in Carlsbad by the Sea - the quintessential Southern California beach town - has been a popular destination for decades. This historic building features a charming hotel, a trendy urban food hall, and contemporary event space. Following a multimillion-dollar renovation, this superb event location is set to wow. SoCal locals are always amazed to discover this gem on their doorstep!

Your event starts in the gorgeous get-ready suites, where you can relax alongside your closest VIPs. With a full kitchen and bath, this is your new home away from home. You'll then stroll through the picture-perfect gardens with mature paperbark trees towering above and listening to the pretty birdsong. As you make your grand entrance into the ceremony space, you'll see this light-drenched room always feels airy thanks to the bright light wells and cathedral ceilings, which keep the room cool even in the height of summer. The contemporary architecture with exposed urban beams and modern chandeliers set off the exquisite draping that forms the center point for your vows. Add an on-trend geometric arch to complete the look.

The old-world style windmill exterior is a gorgeous contrast to the modern interior. Climb the industrial stairs to the first-floor ballroom. This oversized yet cozy space features dark wood beams and flooring, brightened with dual-aspect windows. The library nook with vintage books and armchairs complements the built-in bar offering all your favorite drinks. With room for 200 seated for dinner or celebrating on the hardwood dancefloor, this space guarantees a great time.

The secluded, enclosed patio boasts an oversized fireplace, draped bistro lights, foliage accents, and refreshing sea breezes. Carlsbad Windmill makes it easy to capture candid photos of your friends enjoying themselves as well as gorgeous portraits in each event space. We recommend a five-minute outing to the beach for photos with the dramatic sandstone cliffs and the sparkling Pacific Ocean, or the nearby Carlsbad Flower Fields rich with every color bloom imaginable.

Situated 30 minutes north of San Diego in the well-known beach city, Carlsbad Windmill by Wedgewood Weddings is a fantastic wedding location for local couples and those looking for a destination wedding. This venue is ideal for out-of-town guests as it's walking distance to the beach and local area attractions such as Moonlight State Beach, Tamarack Surf Beach, Carlsbad Village, Legoland, and more! Enjoy convenient hotel accommodations directly on-site.

The Carlsbad Windmill is easily reachable from San Diego, Orange and Riverside Counties. The Pacific Coast Highway / 5 Freeway makes transport a breeze. Local couples from Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, San Diego, Encinitas, Del Mar, San Clemente, Temecula, and Fallbrook love this spectacular wedding venue for its fresh design, urban interior, and iconic exterior.

Our expert wedding professionals love to deliver exceptional service for engaged couples. We pride ourselves on making your wedding planning process easy and fun. In our opinion, you should feel only joy and happiness as you complete your wedding journey!

Your Incredible Wedding

While this sounds like something we can all agree with, it’s incredible how complicated wedding pricing can get. You should also get all your pricing upfront so you can easily find out what everything costs and decide what you can afford.

That’s our philosophy, and we’ll give you a unique pricing proposal during your personalized venue tour. Why at the free tour? A tour helps us understand your wedding wish list and help you clearly see how your wedding can take shape.

Want the pricing now? That’s good too. Download our PDF to find out the ballpark numbers for your wedding. These will only be ballpark because all our packages are customizable. You can add or subtract the services and features you want to tailor your event to your needs.

Our pricing is based on four areas. First, you decide on your package level and multiply it by the number of guests. Then you add the ceremony and venue price for the season and day of the week you're considering. Finally, you'll add your service charge and state tax. Our team will help you hone as you customize your package. As you can see, we include all the big-ticket items like the venue, the décor, and the catering so your wedding budget can work harder.
