He was incredibly responsive throughout the process and remained highly engaged in discussing our plans. =PROS= *Extensive decor included. The package came with beautiful florals and centerpieces, and we were able to view a sample table set up that felt simple yet elegant *Food was included and notably served plated, which is typically an expensive upgrade at many other venues *Clean bathrooms with multiple stalls, which was surprisingly uncommon after touring so many venues *DJ and wedding planner services were already included *Photobooth upgrade was offered at a very reasonable price =CONS= *Very limited parking. We were grateful valet service was included for our larger guest count, but I would strongly recommend this upgrade if not already part of the package *No groom suite. There was a small bridal suite available, though it would feel cramped for anyone beyond just the bride *Limited greenery surrounding the ceremony area. Aside from some shrubbery, there was very little natural scenery and noticeable street noise nearby The pricing was extremely competitive and this likely would have been our choice had I not personally prioritized a venue with more natural surroundings. From both a financial and planning standpoint, this option removed a lot of the usual wedding stress because of how many services were already bundled together. On top of that, Oscar and his team stood out for being exceptionally organized and efficient during both the tour and quoting process.

I was not disappointed in their service as they were attentive and met all of my requests. They also made a few accommodations for my guests with allergies and for those who were vegan. As for the venue, it was absolutely beautiful, inside and out! Don't waste your money choosing a venue that is a blank slate. If you do, you'll be spending more than $60K. If you want something affordable, all-inclusive(food, flowers, DJ, photobooth, centerpieces) and luxurious, this is the venue! Thank you Carlo, Oscar, and Michelle!

The place was very clean and organized when we arrived for setup. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. Alan is amazing! He made sure we got what we wanted for our special day. He did not pressure us to add more to our package. It was a very smooth process. He was very patient and helpful with all the planning that led up to the date. We highly recommend getting the glass package and the champagne tower for your special day. They were a great addition to match the perfectly made drinks and the beautiful venue. Also, FruitCraft is walking distance to bars and clubs to continue the party. We reserved a private section at Gossip Grill post event and it was very close distance. The guests had a great time.

They have preferred vendors that were very professional and easy to work with. We got the DJ, bartending service, cleaning crew, dance floor that lights up, and the photo booths. Banessa and Richard, the owners, were easy to work with and very accomadating. They allow outside vendors if you choose to do so. We realized that this place is the old Corvette's Diner location for those that remember it here. Beautiful exposed beams, rustic solid wood tables, and a private area in the back of the building that could be used for a bride or whoever needs some space from the party, we used it to take a break from the party as we were hosting and staged our stuff in there. It all gives the place an elegant look. Restrooms were super clean and kept up. Thank you Skylight Venue for making our daughter's 21st birthday, not only a success, but unforgettable! Everyone is still talking about how beautiful and fun it was to have a party at Skylight Venue. -Ruben and Racheal- P.S.

This place also can be an event space, so something for me to note for a possible special occasion! Recs: Smoked Sausage & Mussels - This was topped with super yummy shoestring truffle fries with a savory broth. I know there were fries but many bread would be good to absorb the sauce. ‍Mushroom Mix Flatbread with Prosciutto - I loved the mix of fresh ingredients with the caramelized onions & mushrooms. It was still good as leftovers the next day. Titans Revenge & Day Spa - Both of these cocktails were so refreshing. I loved the meld of flavors which made these drinks the perfect beverage to sip on a summer day! Customer service was great and I liked that there weren't too many ppl when we came. Parking was plentiful.

Meraki is a new-ish spot out in the Golden Hill/South Park area that I believe is owned by the same…read morefolks who run Buona Forchetta. A few friends and I decided to try it out after work on a weeknight. Ambiance: the decor and set up here is very appealing and comes off as high end. I'm probably completely wrong, but I feel like the building was originally a warehouse that they converted into a full restaurant. There is an abundance of open space in the dining area, a section for the bar, and seating outside in the front patio. Surprisingly (and pleasantly), it seemed like a slower night as we were one of the few parties in, but I'm sure on other nights and as word picks up it is much busier. Service: we wanted to take advantage of the sunset so we sat outside in the patio area. Our server did a good job of getting our orders in, and had a good balance of checking in but not at a rate that was disruptive. He also made good conversation and had a story of moving to SD recently. Food & Drink: I didn't order the food so I can't speak on it, but my friends ordered three entrees and a side dish of fries. I had two glasses of wine and they were quite good and suited the vibe. Summary: this wasn't a super helpful review since I didn't have the food, but we had a great experience at Meraki. Drinks were good, ambiance was comforting, and service was fantastic. I definitely will give this place another try so I can give a full update on my review next time.

She answered every single one of my million questions, allowed me to your the space beforehand, worked with me when I needed to extend the time, and was available for questions the day of as well.

I love that the space blended itself to be set up exactly as we needed it and then after we were done, went right back to its default state. I definitely don't want to plan any more events soon as I am beyond worn out BUT I would love to host an event here again soon. Not many options for street parking but there is a very cost-efficient lot less than a block away.

Kasia was super quick about answering my questions and writing up a contract for the desired time and date. Jaz who i met when i toured the place was SO nice and helpful in showing me what i would need to do to check in and check out (super easy as well, similar to checking in and out of an airbnb). It's a really nice venue specifically for themed parties (mine was steampunk) bc it really is a blank slate that you can decorate to your taste. My guests were very impressed with the decor and venue. It's nothing super fancy, but it suited my needs exactly and my event was a success! One note that i would do differently and advise others about is bringing additional signage since it is kinda tucked away and also seeing if there will be other events on your chosen date that would impact loading, etc.

I attended a wedding at Luce Loft and love the downtown, industrial vibes here. The venue itself is…read moremade for smaller weddings (ideally less than 100 people). The loft gets flipped so it doubles as a ceremony and reception space with cocktail hour taking place outside or in the long side area. What's great about this place is that you could hire a food truck to provide cocktail bites on the sidewalk. Inside the loft, the space still felt spacious for a reception. There is an upstairs deck area where the couple had a photo booth set up. Personally, I love a city-vibe wedding. I love when a couple can get street shots and any after party can happen in the downtown. I know that vibe isn't for everyone, but if that is yours, you should definitely check this venue out.
