Nestled with an intimate sanctuary filled with grand visits and enchanted nooks, the La Costa Resort and Spa has many ideal places for wedding celebrations. Some within the warmth of their village ambiance, others down winding pathways. For larger formal affairs, walk down the aisle overlooking the greenery of the golf course on the all-new Valley Promenade. Or choose a more intimate gathering on one of the many lush garden terraces dotting the grounds.
ABC Members were rewarded for their ideas and creativity and setting a new trend in stationery, photography, floral design and more at the 2013 Excellence Award Ceremony.
