The space felt both elegant and down-to-earth, and the deck was where everyone naturally gathered. There was plenty of room for lounging, playing games, chatting, and taking in the scenery.

The center supplied everything - pumpkins, and array of succulents, decorative items, working tables and glue guns - and even had treats and drinks. We had a great time chatting with others, admiring the other creations and getting more ideas for future creative work. Kudos to the staff who decorated the space and hosted us so generously!

I would get married here every day! We don't live too far away so we love driving by and reminiscing about the best day of our lives. They were very communicative and super easy to plan with. Considering this is in La Jolla, the price was also very affordable and they had a great list of vendors that they recommend. I wouldn't have changed a thing about our wedding day and very happy with the venue. We had the ceremony in the garden area, cocktail hour outside on the patio, and the reception indoors. It was early April so we were happy to have both options inside or outside, with last minute changes if necessary, as we weren't sure if it was going to be raining.

Perfect venue for amazing views and unique setting great for nature lovers. Maybe the best part is that what you pay to rent the facility goes to the MTRP Foundation to support the park- it's like making a donation! We loved that so much. Thank you for a beautiful venue for our wedding- it was a SUPERB experience from start to finish!

The staff is easy to work with and very relaxed, which was such a pleasant change from other venues that insist on monitoring your every move.

Bottom line: if you want a stress-free, beautiful space to host a wedding or a reception, book the Ole Firehouse ASAP! We feel so fortunate that we were able to celebrate our special day in this one-of-a-kind venue.
