Overlook the greenery of the stately and lively Balboa Park in the gorgeous century-old venue of downtown San Diego, The Abbey on Fifth Avenue. Making your big day the historic event it was meant to be, Hornblower’s Abbey is an on-land alternative for your special celebration. Capitalize on the timeless beauty of this remarkable spot, where authentic stained glass windows, romantic antique woodwork, and Cathedral ceilings will blow your guests away. Feel like a princess walking down the aisle with the soft glow of light making its way down from the glass dome above and the dramatic polished moldings of the décor transporting you to a Renaissance Cathedral. Dine in elegance under stunning fixtures of hand-blown orange-yellow glass suspended from 50-foot ceilings. This traditional and romantic location is appealing to a couple that wants to feel apart of a royal court on their big day. Your guests will appreciate the one-of-a-kind event space at the Abbey and its ability to transform from a beautiful Cathedral for the ceremony into a classic space for the reception.
