Welcome to the Left Coast Quintet blog! Here we share stories from behind the music, from weddings and special events to community concerts, unique San Diego venues, new repertoire, and life as a professional wind quintet.

​
You’ll find wedding music ideas, venue inspiration, concert updates, behind-the-scenes stories, and the occasional deep dive into the music we love performing. After more than a decade of making music throughout San Diego and Southern California, we have plenty of stories to tell.

Bayside Weddings at the Bali Hai

Bali Hai Outdoor Wedding
Bayside View on the Patio
We had the opportunity to attend the fall open house at the Bali Hai restaurant on Shelter Island, and meet with clients and other wedding professionals who are regulars at ceremonies here. First off, the weather couldn't have been better - scattered clouds with clear skies, a fantastic view of downtown, and a magical sunset.

Bali Hai really went all out, having vendors display the best of their work and serving great food and drinks throughout the event. We had the opportunity to meet florists, bakers, DJ's, photographers, really everyone who could help make your wedding day the best possible experience. These are all experienced professionals, and I enjoyed sharing stories with them
Bali Hai Wedding Ceremony
If you're searching for a waterfront wedding ceremony site, I know Bali Hai is a place you should check out. We aren't professional photographers and just our cell phone pictures came out stunning. Imagine what your guests will experience here. It's an absolutely beautiful wedding site.

There were incredible options for table displays, mostly centered around an island theme but with different types of flowers and centerpieces. VG Donuts brought out a spread of desserts that would impress Willy Wonka, and we really enjoyed as the sun went down hanging out around the fire pit while the downtown high rises lit up in the distance across the bay.

Overall, if you're still searching for an incredible wedding or event space in the central San Diego area, Bali Hai should be on your list to visit. We've played there before and would love to provide your ceremony and cocktail hour music, and we're happy to set you up with the other wedding professionals we met.

This looks like a nice venue for a beach wedding. I'd be curious to know what the pricing is like and if they have packages for smaller ceremonies.

I've always thought the Bali Hai would be a nice spot for a wedding with that water view. Do you know if they have indoor backup options for bad weather?

This venue sounds like it would be right by the water, which I imagine makes for nice photos. Have you been to any weddings there yourself?
