San Diego Botanic Garden is one of those wedding venues that really feels like an escape without ever leaving Encinitas. Surrounded by trees, flowers, tropical plants, winding paths, and tucked-away garden spaces, there are beautiful settings throughout the property for ceremonies, cocktail hours, receptions, and other celebrations.
Left Coast Quintet has performed weddings and events at the San Diego Botanic Garden, and it's a particularly fun venue for live acoustic music. Our wind instruments carry beautifully outdoors, giving guests the experience of live music while still fitting naturally into the peaceful garden setting.

Ceremony & Cocktail Hour Music
The Garden offers several different spaces for weddings, from intimate ceremonies surrounded by greenery to larger celebrations on the lawns. We've especially enjoyed performing among the trees and gardens, where flute, oboe, clarinet, French horn, and bassoon create a warm sound without needing a large production or amplified setup.
For ceremonies, we can perform everything from traditional classical music to Disney, movie themes, Broadway, jazz, and instrumental arrangements of popular songs. After the ceremony, we can easily change the mood for cocktail hour with something lighter and more upbeat while guests explore the gardens and enjoy the celebration.
Music That Fits a Garden Wedding
One of our favorite things about performing at San Diego Botanic Garden is that the surroundings already provide so much atmosphere. The music doesn't need to compete with the setting. It becomes part of it. Whether you're planning something romantic and traditional or want a ceremony filled with music that feels completely personal to you, we'll help you put together a soundtrack that fits your wedding and the beautiful setting around you.
