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. For your ceremony, choose between two stunning options. As you make your grand entrance into the indoor 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. Or, if you're hoping for an outdoor ceremony, head outside. This charming outdoor space features a sprawling lush lawn, ideal for an intimate garden wedding. The well-manicured hedges and vibrant greenery make a lovely natural backdrop. The classic gazebo is a picturesque spot to exchange vows, framed by the mature eucalyptus trees behind it.

The old-world style windmill exterior is a gorgeous contrast to the modern interior. Climb the industrial stairs to the second-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. Recipient of Here Comes the Guide's 'Affordable San Diego Wedding Venues' and 'All Inclusive San Diego Wedding Venues' awards, Carlsbad Windmill by Wedgewood Weddings provides excellent value and ease to San Diego couples wanting seaside charm without busting budgets. You'll appreciate the beautiful, inclusive packages at this breezy coastal gem.

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.

Your Incredible Wedding

While it seems like it should be simple, wedding pricing can be surprisingly complex. We believe that you should be able to get all your pricing upfront so you can easily find out what everything costs and decide what fits within your budget.

That’s our philosophy, which is why we’ll give you a unique pricing proposal during your personalized venue tour. Our team will provide you with all the details and help you customize your package. This allows us to gain a clear understanding of your wedding wish list and help you clearly see how your wedding can take shape.

If you'd like ballpark pricing now, simply download our PDF to get a general idea of the costs for your wedding. Keep in mind that these figures are approximate since all our packages are fully customizable. You can add or subtract services 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. Next, you add the ceremony and venue price, which varies depending on the season and day of the week you're considering. Finally, you'll add your admin fee and state tax. 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.
