What couples highlight
From the reviews
L'Auberge Carmel is an unforgettable experience. From the first point of contact with the staff to the last goodbyes, we had the upmost attention. The personalized details and celebratory gifts were truly unexpected, enjoyed and appreciated. We thank everyone who made our anniversary stay the most enjoyable experience.
Getting married at L'Auberge Carmel
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
