How it breaks down:
Facility Rental Fee: If you select one of their wedding packages there is no venue fee and instead a per person catering fee applies.

- China, flatware, glasses
- SF Savory Menu with buffet service

Extras: There is an additional maintenance fee which varies
Vendors: You may bring in your own vendors including caterers. However that would change the venue rental fee as mentioned above.
Food: Catering packages start at $80 per person and go up to $110 per person, plus tax and service charge.

Woman Getting Married Says:
As a wedding ceremony and reception venue I’m not sure how I feel about this space unless you’re considering a SUPER casual wedding. On the other hand I LOVE it for a rehearsal dinner. I think it would be great to bring in some food trucks along with tastings of their local wine for a really unique event. Alternatively you could totally do that for a laid-back wedding as well. It definitely depends on what kind of vibe you’re looking for!
