The Skybox Is Now Booking Days And Nights.

They were fantastic. My husband and I do not live in California so I had flown out to look at a few venues, none of them being the Skybox. I told him I narrowed it down to two. Then right before we both had the opportunity to come out to look at the two I had chosen, we saw the Skybox on the Wedding-Spot and the Knot. My husband said we "HAD" to check it out. I called Amanda and she was the nicest person ever. We booked our appointment and the minute we walked in, my husband said: "This is it".The Skybox is stunning and has some of the best views in San Diego. It is non-traditional and made us feel like we truly had a unique wedding. Before the wedding, we were introduced to our wedding coordinator, Chauncey. Chauncey is one of the sweetest people! She is so experienced and organized. I'm a little OCD and she was able to handle my expectations, meet them, and go above and beyond them. Both her and Amanda were always willing to speak with me on the phone and answer any questions/concerns I had. They were able to point me in the right direction as far as a caterer goes and give recommendations for all our other vendors.At the wedding, all our guests expressed how beautiful the venue was. We were told that it was one of the best weddings and that the view from the venue made it. Our guests were extremely happy because everything ran seamlessly. I never had to worry about anything because Chauncey was there t the whole time. She would come up to me about 5 minutes before we had to do the next event (i.e. father-daughter dance, cake cutting, etc.) and ask if Philip (my husband) and I were ready to move on or if we wanted a few more minutes.Honestly, the care and attention she and her staff that day gave were beyond excellent. Chauncey made sure we ate that day, had a drink in our hands, and were overall happy. The venue is drop-dead gorgeous, but the staff deserves all the praise. I will recommend this place 11 out of 10 times. read less

Your guests will be wowed! The staff is professional and with you the whole way, answering all questions and concerns. There is day of support as well. We had a day event during a Padres game, but I can only imagine how magical it must be at night with the fireplace and skyline of our beautiful city. read less

The wedding I attended began at 5:30pm and it was funny because the music of the Padres getting ready below started to playing during the vows, so all of a sudden you just heard Miley Cyrus rocking out to 'Party in the USA!' WHOO!!! If that doesn't say party, I don't know what does. One cool moment while we were here was when the Padres scored a home run, we could see the fireworks set off from the stadium at the Skybox. The food here is amazing too. I think it's an in-house catering company so if you are looking to have your wedding here, go with the Skybox's choices of caters! Parking is the one thing that really became confusing. When I pulled in to the parking lot under the building, I was told that the Skybox people upstairs would validate my parking. When I asked if there was anything that I needed to pay if I stayed longer or if it became past a certain time, the man who was working the booth just started laughing and me and said "THE SKYBOX WILL VALIDATE!" I was just like, well, all right, took my ticket and drove it. I couldn't believe he laughed at me... at my face! During the cocktail hour, I found one of the staff (later found out he was the security/bouncer man) and had asked him about the Skybox validating my parking. Since I was laughed at, I didn't know what to do. Anyways, he had asked his supervisor and they didn't really know so before I left I asked the people who ran the front desk at the time. They said they didn't really known either, but eventually they let me out. Overall... Beautiful venue and great views of the city. If you are coming to check out the venue for an event/wedding, ask your wedding planner to double check about parking/validation so you don't end up in the same problem as I did! read less

Amanda responded to my online inquiry immediately and was honest and straightforward about everything we'd need to consider when it came to cost, timing, etc. Stef was incredibly helpful and super responsive. Rachael was the event coordinator for the day and managed everything beautifully. The space is spectacular but the level of service we received really makes this place amazing. At a time when I didn't want to stress about anything, these women took care of everything and helped create a memorable sendoff. I can't recommend them highly enough. read less

They chose the site and I could not have been more pleased. All I did was show up and have a good time and that I did!. When I stepped foot in the skybox, it took my breath away. I stopped in my tracks to take it all in. Photo enlargements of the newlyweds greeted us off of the elevator (a must do!!); the table setting was so pleasant and large windows show-cased views of downtown San Diego and beyond. Then I walked onto the balcony and fans were piling into Petco Stadium as the Padres had a game the same night. It could not have been better!Julia made this experience delightful! I would advise every couple to use the Skybox and to hire Julia!! I live in the Minneapolis, MN area and would have paid more for a venue than I did this in San Diego.Norma K. read less

Everything about the venue and the service we received was first class and exceeded our expectations. Our event coordinator, Stefanie Muse, was absolutely amazing. She was accessible, super responsive, and totally on top of every detail regarding our event. Her exceptional service allowed us to focus solely on enjoying our wedding and having a great time with our guests because she handled every little detail and kept the event running smoothly from start to finish. The venue provided spectacular views and a unique wedding experience that made a huge impression on all of our guests. It truly was a magical evening that we will never forget. read less

This was actually the first venue at which we looked, and the only reason we didn't sign on right away was me saying "we cant go with the first place we see." But we found ourselves comparing every other space to this one, and we called them soon after to reserve the date. Everyone at Creative Affairs (which manages events at the venue) was fabulous and so willing to work with us at every twist and turn. Whenever we had a question or issue, the crew was willing to accommodate and make it work. And when the big day came, everyone commented on how beautiful the space is and what a wonderful event it was. We were grateful for the flexibility to bring in our own vendors, but that they had a list of preferred vendors. We ended up going with some of their preferred vendors and we were so glad they were familiar with the site, it made things so much easier. Overall, it was a magical experience and a perfect day.

My husband and I are city people and love the urban feel. We checked out so many places and this one was even better than what we expected... I was so happy I found The Ultimate Skybox! It has the most amazing views all around, windows from floor to ceiling, and not to mention the best staff. Julia was our wedding coordinator and was awesome. So friendly and down to earth. We were suppose to have our wedding on the balcony, but there was a big chance of rain, so we had to have it inside... and it turned out, in my opinion, even better inside. The way the windows made reflections on the glossy wood floors was so beautiful. It was so magical. I also loved how our guests could hang out on the heated balcony or inside during the reception.They have everything you could ever need for an amazing wedding! Such an amazing experience!Thank you guys so much! read less

I'm from Ohio and wanted a venue that you wouldn't be able to find back home. The views are spectacular no matter where you look. Our guests raved about the views. There's multiple places guests can mingle other than at the tables. At the front, they had seating area. There's an outdoor patio with a huge fireplace and seating. I think the fireplace was a guest favorite. I loved the hardwood floors. I was looking for a venue that didn't have that tacky carpet that clashes with everything (you guys know what I'm talking about). This place was just so elegant. Everyone we dealt with at Creative Affairs did an amazing job. Chauncey was our coordinator and I was in good hands the whole time. Our wedding could not have been more perfect. read less

The views were amazing, and it was the perfect combination of all things "us." City views, upscale decor, but still fun and youthful. It really was terrific. I mean, just look at this view! yelp.com/biz_photos/the-… and yelp.com/biz_photos/the-…I loved that the ceremony and reception were all in one location. I also loved the fireplace, it's kind of my "thing." So for me, that was a selling point. I've reviewed the Event team separately over at Creative Affairs, so feel free to check that out, but a quick summary is that they're amazing, hard working and wonderful! read less

It's definitely the "Ultimate".We held our reception here and everyone just RAVED about how spectacular the view was. Pili, is who we worked with to put it all together, was just such a doll. ! The vendors she suggested were excellent (Although not too fond with the Floral vendor we chose), other than that, it was a night that was unforgettable, and they make your special occasion an event of the year. Its costly but well worth it ! I can honestly say that no wedding we have been too since have ever topped the skybox! read less

Do yourself a favor and just come check it out. The view is the best in San Diego, and it's a great way to wow guests right away. SPACE: The room itself is great, if a little board-roomish. To compensate for this, we hired a furniture company to come bring quirky funky chairs and couches, which more than compensated for it. Made it all a really great experience.We had our ceremony off-site because it felt a little awkward to have it there. It would've been fine, but I think it's better as just a reception venue if you can swing it. SERVICE: With the rental comes a day-of coordinator, assigned 3 months before the wedding itself. Ours was a charming young woman named Chauncey, who worked with us every step of the way, holding us to a checklist, asking us questions we didn't even know we needed to answer, and basically guiding us through the entire thing.We cannot say enough nice things about Chauncey, personally or professionally. I have no idea what kind of experience it would've been without her, and I shudder to even consider it. So much of the ease and flow of the entire day was because she was back there running the thing from start to finish. Couldn't have been better. read less
