Cuvier Park, also known as The Wedding Bowl, is a charming small park nestled at the intersection of Coast Boulevard and Cuvier Street in La Jolla, CA. Situated just across from the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art, this hidden gem is discreetly positioned about five steps below street level, adding an element of seclusion and intimacy to its atmosphere.

This picturesque park is renowned as the premier wedding venue along the stunning La Jolla coastline. Accessible by turning onto Cuvier Street from Prospect Street, visitors will find street parking available. It's worth noting that the site is exclusively permitted for wedding ceremonies, with only one permit granted per day. The allotted time for ceremonies, including set-up and breakdown, is four hours, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

With a maximum capacity of 50 guests, Cuvier Park offers a serene setting for couples to exchange vows amidst the natural beauty of its surroundings. Please be aware that receptions are not permitted at this location, and guests are advised that restrooms are not available on-site. For inquiries regarding fees and permits, interested parties can contact the Permit Center at (619) 235-1169.
