Booking Club Del Monte at the Historic Hotel Del Monte in Monterey covers your space, tables, chairs, linens, a dance floor and cleanup, with catering and bar service from the in-house Club Del Monte team. Food starts at $70 per person, and a 23% service charge applies. Dressing areas are available for an extra fee, and AV equipment is quoted to fit your event. Since catering and alcohol are in-house only, you won't need to hire a separate caterer or bartender.

Yes, your ceremony and reception can both happen at Club Del Monte on the grounds of the Historic Hotel Del Monte. From May 1 to September 30, you can say your vows on the Peacock Lawn, a European-style rose garden for 150–400 guests, or at Crocker's Cove, a private spot above Del Monte Beach with Monterey Bay views that hosts ceremonies and receptions. For the reception, choose the Barbara McNitt Ballroom (150–600 seated, up to 1,000 standing), the El Prado Dining Room (75–150) or the La Novia Room (25–90).

Catering and bar service at Club Del Monte are in-house only, so outside caterers and outside alcohol aren't allowed. The upside: the Club Del Monte catering team handles your menu from start to finish, whether you want a plated dinner, a buffet or a cocktail-style reception, starting at $70 per person. They'll shape the menu around your taste, budget and style, so bring your favorite dishes to the first planning meeting.

Venue rental at Club Del Monte at the Historic Hotel Del Monte in Monterey runs $450–$4,000, depending on the day of the week, the time of day and the space you choose. Food starts at $70 per person, and a 23% service charge applies. Tables, chairs, linens, a dance floor and cleanup are part of the rental, so you won't be renting those separately. Your biggest levers are the space (the La Novia Room for 25–90 guests or the Barbara McNitt Ballroom for up to 600), a daytime or evening time slot, and your menu.

Weddings at Club Del Monte run in one of two time slots: 11am–4pm or 6pm–11pm, so an evening reception wraps at 11pm. Need more time? Extra hours are available for a fee. Amplified music is allowed both indoors and outdoors. If you're dreaming of Crocker's Cove or the Peacock Lawn, pick a date between May 1 and September 30, when those outdoor spaces are open.

Guests can stay right on-site at the Hotel Del Monte if they're active or retired military, their families or their sponsored guests. An eligible sponsor can reserve up to four rooms, and blocks of five or more go through the hotel's group coordinator. Every overnight guest is vetted, and anyone without a Department of War (DoW) credential needs a REAL ID or another accepted ID, such as a U.S. passport. Guests without unescorted base access must be escorted on base. Uber and Lyft can't drive onto the base, but pickups work just outside the Sloat gate, about a five-minute walk from the hotel.

Club Del Monte puts your wedding inside the Historic Hotel Del Monte in Monterey, a landmark set on 25 acres of lawns with oak, cypress and pine. You can hold a Monterey Bay-view ceremony at Crocker's Cove above Del Monte Beach or among the roses on the Peacock Lawn, then celebrate in the Barbara McNitt Ballroom, the hotel's original dining room, with five chandeliers and an inlaid mosaic fountain. It's built for big guest lists too, seating up to 600 or hosting 1,000 standing. And with rooms on-site for eligible military guests and the guests they sponsor, your whole weekend can happen in one place.
