AutoCamp Yosemite

Mariposa, CA
  • Up to 225 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Surrounded by soaring Sonoma redwoods and ideally situated between the Russian River and the charming nearby town of Guerneville—an outdoor and wine destination. Sleep next to the redwood forest, then wake up with coffee in your private outdoor space. Tucked into a grove of trees that feels secluded but is only a five-minute drive from hiking trails, swimming spots, and Guerneville’s charming main street, it’s the best of every world.

Our guests stayed in AutoCamp for our wedding in Mariposa and we held the rehearsal dinner in the private space in the clubhouse. Everyone at AutoCamp worked to make sure our weekend was exactly what we pictured. We had so much fun and would recommend to everyone!!!!!

  • Indoor & outdoor

Welcome. Landmark Vineyards is an ultra-premium winery nestled in the heart of Sonoma Valley in Kenwood CA. An unforgettable setting makes for an unforgettable event!

Our welcoming courtyard, lush gardens, and stunning views of the Mayacamas Mountains make the perfect backdrop for your special occasion.

I can't speak highly enough of Landmark Vineyards! From the moment we set foot on the premises, we knew we had discovered the perfect place to celebrate our special day. The staff at the venue were exceptional - professional, accommodating, attentive, and they made us feel like part of their family. Olivia, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was meticulously taken care of. Her expertise and experience shone through from our initial discussions all the way to the flawless execution of the event. The venue itself was absolutely breathtaking. The majestic Sugar Loaf Mountains served as a picturesque backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Our guests were captivated by the beauty and charm of the venue, and we received countless compliments on our choice of location. Not to mention, the wine was absolutely delicious! I can't express enough how much I recommend Landmark Vineyards. I look forward to returning to celebrate anniversaries and other special occasions in the future. This place holds a special place in our hearts, and we will never stop singing its praises.

The Pearl

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Up to 220 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor

The Pearl is located in the heart of one of San Francisco's most historical and culturally rich neighborhoods, Dogpatch. Designed with both form and function, The Pearl is partnered with some of the Bay Area’s top industry players to offer guests in-house versatility that goes beyond the expectations of any private venue. Complete with state-of-the-art lighting and audiovisual capabilities, gorgeous rooftop views of The Bay, and permanent art installations by Alexis Laurent, the 9,000+ square foot space is an industrial charm waiting to be transformed by your wedding vision. Accommodating up to 800 guests, The Pearl has a main floor, mezzanine, rooftop, catering kitchen, and a top notch in-house bar program featuring the finest selections of local beer, wine, and premium spirits.

The Pearl will forever hold a special place in the hearts of myself and my husband. It was the first venue we toured and we knew right away it was going to make for such a special wedding day. We are now 2 days post wedding and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The entire planning process was a breeze thanks to Carrie. All of our guests raved abut how amazing it was that the ceremony and reception were at the same location! We did our ceremony on the roof, as well as our cocktail hour on the roof. Then we had guests walk downstairs to our reception area. The bartenders were incredible and did a fantastic job keeping our 130 guests well fueled. We hired Melons Catering, a caterer on The Pearl's short list of caterers, who absolutely knocked it out of the park when it came to the food. Guests couldn't stop talking about the quality and service of dinner! We are over the moon with how our wedding went and have zero bad things to say about The Pearl, or anyone who works there. If you're looking for a venue that screams urban city, but green and organic as well... look no further, as The Pearl can do it all. 10/10 recommend!!

Stanly Ranch

5.0

Napa, CA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $33,000

On the southern edge of Napa Valley, the banks of the Napa River contour around the historic Stanly Ranch, where pristine vineyards blanket gently rolling hills that rise up to meet the wide-open California sky. Here, an extraordinary new luxury resort is taking shape. Stanly Ranch, a new destination in the heart of wine country, celebrates the romance of connecting with family and friends in a setting that’s steeped in winery estate tradition, inspired by the beauty of the land, and infused with a fresh, convivial spirit.

The pricing on here is wrong. The venue fee alone is almost 30k. Then the food and beverage minimum is 50k but if you have 150 guests you will spend more like 80k. Plus there is a service fee of at least 13k. So BEFORE photographer, footwear, videographer, band, decor etc. you’re already at around 123k.

The Tech Interactive

5.0

San Jose, CA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $12,000

The Tech Interactive is a science and technology center and is a fantastic place for a large or small party: Three-levels can accommodate up to 2,500 guests on a large, adaptable floor plan, or flexible spaces make events of all sizes feel at home. You can reserve The Interactive lobby, fully operational interactive exhibit galleries, the IMAX Dome Theater or our rooftop terrace, which features stunning views of downtown landmarks. Find the perfect space, or combination of spaces, for your next event or meeting at The Interactive. Plus we’re located in the heart of Downtown San Jose, just steps away from public transit, the San Jose McEnery Convention Center and several major hotels.

We hosted our October 2023 Wedding Reception at The Tech Interactive and I highly recommend it to anybody who is looking for a unique (and literally interactive) venue. It was so much fun and our guests had a great time!  We rented the entire lower level and they kept the galleries and exhibits open so our guests could play with them throughout the night! They were a hit during cocktail hour as well as for taking breaks from the dance floor (although we still always had plenty of people on the dance floor!)  Our event was mostly adults with a handful of younger relatives, and everyone had a great time. The exhibits at The Tech Interactive are perfect for quick and fun interactions no matter how interested (or not interested) any individual guest was in science/technology. Our engineer friends had a great time with the Cyber Detectives activities, while even our least technically-inclined guests enjoyed playing around with things like the Jet Pack Chair and Solve For Earth. This was truly best of both worlds, as we didn't have to give up any of the "traditional" wedding elements to make room for the fun of the exhibits - our tables and decorations were set up beautifully, we still had appetizers and an open bar, and like I mentioned above, there were still always plenty of people on the dance floor! We actually didn't even need to decorate as much as we might have with a more "traditional" venue either, as the existing colors, lighting, and layout of The Tech make for a strong baseline to build from. Our primary contact was Lolita and she was extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. She was there with us every step of the way, from our initial tour to our reception itself. She made sure to consider exactly what we were looking for to make our wedding special and was extremely organized and great and communicating with us as well as our other vendors. She created a great layout based on our table count, dance floor size, and the space the caterer needed, and she and her team went above and beyond and worked with our caterer and coordinator to help set everything up between the public close time and the start of our event so that everything was perfect when our guests got there. They even let us customize the exterior lighting color of the building during our event. The physical location of The Tech Interactive is fantastic as well - right in downtown San Jose within walking distance of tons of hotels and two parking garages where The Tech validates. The city closed off Market Street right in front of The Tech relatively last minute for a public city event, but Lolita was on top of it and worked with us and our shuttle company to arrange for pickup and a smooth experience for our guests. In summary: If you're looking to do something unique with your wedding or event, I can't recommend The Tech Interactive enough. Lolita was fantastic to work with and our guests couldn't stop saying how it was one of the most fun weddings they had ever been to.

Great American Music Hall

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $10,000

Great American Music Hall Located in the heart of San Francisco, The Great American Music Hall, with its rich history and grand architecture, is the perfect venue for a celebration you’ll never forget. Weddings Nowhere in The Bay Area will you find a more elegant setting for a wedding, or even just a renewal of vows. Come celebrate your marriage with us, in a setting where your wedding pictures will look as fabulous as you can imagine.

We loved the idea of booking a reception venue that already had an incredible staff in-house. GAMH provided us with great care and kind but honest input every step of the way. The event coordinator (the fabulous Mandy!), audio, lighting, catering, servers, bar service, coat check…..was perfection because the team is their own and prideful for the space and its legendary music history. It was special to introduce so many out-of-town guests to this beautiful classic of a venue in the heart of our city and dance the night away. We’ll never forget it and will enjoy attending shows that much more forever.

I have worked at Maple Lawn over the past 7 years photographing weddings there and every time I get to work at the property I am so happy to work with Sue the coordinator. She is a joyous person to be around and exactly who you would want coordinating your wedding. She is on time, personable and knows how to run a wedding. The property has a lot of space for the bridesmaids and groomsmen to get ready and many unique features such as the 19th century mansion and the ceremony site area surrounded by large beautiful magnolia trees. The guests love being able to explore the grounds and the couples adore the beautiful, unique flavor of the venue. I would highly recommend Maple Lawn to any prospective couples.
