Set The Date offers wedding location tours to assist you in finding the perfect location for your San Diego wedding.

In one productive day, you will be personally guided through a customized selection of options that bring together your dreams and requirements for an ideal wedding location. With hundreds of weddings to reference, owner Lauren Gaglione will provide her knowledge and expertise as you jump start your wedding planning with ease.


Between her time as an assistant photographer for one of the top wedding photographers in San Diego and managing the marketing and sales for one of the busiest studios, Lauren has literally seen it all. She has either viewed pictures of every inch of each venue in town or was there personally photographing it herself.


With an eye for ambiance and known for her "freakish" memory, Lauren can recall each and every wedding, both the great and the not-so-great. Which weddings have been her favorite? Any wedding that was unique, personal, smart, and fun.


Tours include one full day with Lauren driving you to and guiding you through a customized selection of ceremony and reception locations in and around San Diego, plus lunch for two.
Weekday: $350
Weekend or holiday: $400

Some testimonials...

"Thank you so much for yesterday!  You showed me places that I had either never heard of or that I had passed off.  You sped up the agonizing process of categorizing and filtering possible venues and actually made it fun for me!  You're fun and laid back and seem more like a friend that we were hanging out with rather than a possible awkward first meeting with someone, lol!  I think you are most valuable because you have hints and ideas for each venue that are not biased or pushy.  You gave good pros and cons of each place, and got us in and out quickly, loved that!  I would poke my own eyes out if I had to take hour-long tours of each place ;)  Thank you again for all your research, knowledge, and help with finding a venue. We are very happy and excited that you helped us get things started."

"Thank you soooo much for taking me around on Thursday.  And an added thank you for the referrals.  I am taking Bill to "the top four" today.  I told him what a turning point it was to have met you and receive your assistance at this point.  So thank you again.  I feel strongly that our place is one of the four favorites from Thursday."
