Grace Cathedral is a glorious church and, wedding and reception venue located in San Francisco, California atop Nob Hill. Complete with 90 foot ceilings, curving archways, and stunning stained glass, this wedding venue is an architectural masterpiece and widely sought-after San Francisco landmark. When you book space here, you will have seven distinctive wedding venues from which to choose, and all of them are perfect for whatever style of wedding you would like.

Grace Cathedral is openly supportive of same sex couples and unions. All are welcome here.

My husband and I got married back in Sept 2023 and I had always dreamed of getting married at Grace Cathedral since I was a little girl but almost wrote the dream off entirely as I thought it would be far out of our budget to get married there. I decided to inquire with the church (which was an easy process compared to other churches) and the planning team was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with right from the start. This was crucial for us because we were getting married in under three months and didn't have time to spare. We worked directly with Mahogany and she was amazing. She helped us secure a space within the Church called the Chapel of Nativity that was stunning, within our budget and the perfect size for our small wedding. As soon as we secured our wedding date and completed the contract, we received all of the necessary details pertaining to the planning process promptly and the planning team and our assigned Reverend held our hand every step of the way. On that note, we absolutely loved our Reverend Anna who we completed 3 premarital counseling sessions with, and she also officiated our wedding so beautifully. She really got to know us and helped us prepare for the biggest day of our lives and brought us closer together as a couple. The attention to detail throughout the whole process overall was beyond my expectations and the ceremony was so beautiful, emotional and spiritual. It was nice walking to the church on my wedding day and I didn't have to worry about a thing. We covered everything during the rehearsal, and I really felt that even though we had lower cost ceremony, we received the full service from the Grace Cathedral team and were honestly treated like royalty on our special day. The team made every concession possible to ensure all of our wishes were fulfilled to the best of their ability and no detail was overlooked on the big day. I can't thank the Grace Cathedral team enough for everything. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. It was the wedding of my dreams!

Log Cabin at the Presidio

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Up to 150 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $11,490

Within the Fort Scott campus along the Presidio's western shore, not far from the Golden Gate Bridge, this rustic cabin is ideal for wedding celebrations. Feel cozy indoors or step out to the generous lawn with panoramic views of the San Francisco skyline. Dating back to 1937, step into history and enjoy the rustic grandeur of this Army Clubhouse or enjoy the patio and lawn with views of the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco city skyline. By choosing this unique, rustic wedding venue, couples can relax with a stress-free planning experience while also hosting a grand event that impresses their guests! As with all Wedgewood Weddings venues, our dedicated event planning team makes everything about the wedding planning experience a breeze.

We are so, so happy with our decision to hold our wedding reception at the Log Cabin at the Presidio. I would recommend the Log Cabin and Wedgewood Weddings to anyone looking for an all-in-one package, easy breezy planning, awesome event planners/coordinators, and a flawlessly executed day. The Log Cabin itself is beautiful, the food was amazing, the drinks were flowing, the flowers were beautiful, and the location in the Presidio is perfect. They have a fabulous team to help you plan and execute the wedding of your dreams! The team (Duckie, Jimmy, and Libby - huge shoutout!) all were awesome to work with through the planning process. Super communicative, responsive, professional, knowledgeable, and supportive through the whole thing. They helped us plan the most perfect day and made it so easy on us. Jimmy was our day-of coordinator and deserves extra praise for pivoting gracefully and adjusting the evening’s timeline flawlessly when our shuttles unfortunately were super late to arrive with our guests. The rest of the day-of team were all amazing, too. DJ Abel blew our socks off - we didn’t want typical wedding music, and he totally nailed the playlist and the vibe we were hoping for. I even had a touching moment with the security guard who pulled me aside and said he got emotional during the father/daughter dance, which was such a lovely thing for him to share. Wedgewood as an organization seems to have a very organized, structured approach to wedding planning, which I so appreciated. They were great partners and helped us have the most perfect day on one of the biggest days of our lives!

I have shared this review on The Knot and Wedding Wire as well: This venue was a great space for our needs/desires for our wedding: indoor/outdoor space, surrounded by nature but modern/accessible, lots of space for tables, bar, food, dancing, band...the staff was extremely organized, nice and professional. We planned this wedding from France and they were very helpful with everything that comes with planning an event from abroad. Our guests all raved about having access to the telescopes, and the volunteers made it that much more fascinating by going above and beyond with their explanations of what we were gazing at.
