Personal Touch Dining’s Expansion on Harbor Island!

Over the past 30 years, wedding and event specialists Personal Touch Dining have established a stellar reputation throughout San Diego, and were recently named a 2018 San Diego Business Journal Fastest Growing Private Company. Now, the team has expanded their family of managed venues to include Harbor View Loft, a picturesque waterfront location in Harbor Island, San Diego. This magnificent property offers a stunning 300-degree view of San Diego’s Harbor, Coronado Bridge, Marina, and City Lights, and features a rooftop ceremony area, wraparound balcony, and private patio.

“The space was closed for 15 years before we recognized its potential and restored to its former glory and beyond,” remarked Tracy Zemke, Director of Sales and Marketing of Personal Touch Dining. “We are beyond excited to bring weddings, corporate functions, and private events to life at Harbor View Loft. The views are exceptional, even by San Diego standards.”

The property has a storied history on the island as its first marina, which opened its doors in 1970, and operated under names such as Barnacle Bill’s. As revitalized by the Personal Touch Dining team, Harbor View Loft now features a very modern aesthetic, with clean lines, cool gray tones and panoramic windows, as well as a full kitchen and bar. Its enviable location and proximity to San Diego International Airport make it an ideal event venue for locals, as well as for those seeking a unique destination property for a wedding or celebration.

Personal Touch Dining has over 30 years of experience creating weddings and events in the San Diego area. In addition to Harbor View Loft, they also manage the stately Mt. Woodson Castle in Ramona, and of course, our very own Leo Carrillo Ranch.

When we have a couple with so much charisma, infectious personalities, and positive energy we are bound to blog about them! A + J were truly such a pleasure to work with and they made for great company. With these photos you are about to witness from True Photography, you can see the love and beauty in each captured shot. Don’t miss that “First Look” photo under the Wash House – a new favorite spot for the couple to capture this special moment between the two!  Also, those details at the Reception with the farm tables made a perfect pop with the turquoise napkins. A little something blue goes a long way at the Ranch 🙂

Thank you, A + J, for choosing us to be apart of your special day!

As fall arrives, we still have plenty of our weddings from spring and summer to blog about. Like this May dreamboat, C + J celebrated their big day at the Ranch. Bridesmaids fashioned out in dusty blue and paired with gorgeous peach, burgundy and pink bouquets, while the groomsmen suited up in tan jackets, navy pants and a patterned tie. We witnessed a personal and raw ceremony followed by a fabulous reception – check out that sweetness overload at their dessert bar! 😉

Thank you to Krissel Rivas Photography for capturing their special day!
