Valentine 

5.0

  • Up to 240 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Offer

Valentine is our grandest location, and features a flowing 9,000 square-foot site plan designed for private events, courtyard weddings, receptions, exhibitions, productions and live performances. The venue is fully amenitized, and we provide experienced, professional site management, plus a commercial kitchen for client-selected catering teams. Originally built in the 1920’s in an area that has long served as the city’s seafood market east of Downtown, the building has lived many lives in its century of use; it’s been a hotel, a brothel, a fish and oyster company, and a commercial site for everything from glass blowing to marijuana cultivation. This mysterious history subtly informed our re-invention of the space.

The team at Valentine was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our wedding planning process alongside our wedding planner. Their communication was excellent - they were always quick to respond to our questions and flexible in accommodating any changes we needed to make. We felt completely organized and at ease knowing they had everything under control. The venue itself was stunning, with a beautiful and unique style that made our special day feel even more magical. The quality of their work and attention to detail was exceptional, and the overall value they provided was incredible. We are so grateful to the Valentine team for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect.

There are truly not enough words to describe how incredible Marvimon was as a wedding venue. 
We had the wedding of our literal dreams — an all day affair that took place in both Valentine and Grass Room.

 Dana (Event Director) deserves every award there is in the wedding/event category. We opted out of a wedding planner because we were pretty confident in putting it together ourselves but of course there was A LOT to figure out and hurdles faced along the way. But thanks to Dana and Marvimon’s phenomenal team, the end result was truly magical. Between the organization, attention to detail, genuine care, and the list of unbelievable, pre-approved vendors (including a BIPOC, women-owned, and queer specific list which is where we primarily sourced everything) we didn’t realize that we not only got the venue of our dreams but the support it came with was extremely valuable. Not to mention the beautiful furniture, foliage and overall interior aesthetic that was there which removed any need for renting additional pieces. Weddings are exciting but everyone who has planned or is in the middle of planning one knows they are massively stressful. That said, the Marvimon team (ESPECIALLY DANA) didn’t have us worried at all. They were one of the biggest reasons we were at ease and confident things were going to run smoothly which I’m happy to report they did with flying rainbow colors! 100/10 CANNOT recommend enough! 
(We are already thinking about our vow renewal party at one of their other venue spaces - true story)

I had the pleasure of planning and coordinating a recent wedding at SmogShoppe, and let me just say this venue is such a vibe! Working with Dana, Clare, and the rest of the Marvimon team again was such a joy, as they always make the whole planning process a breeze for myself, the bride and groom, and everyone involved in the big day. The venue itself is so unique, eclectic, and has a ton of character that little to no decor is needed. Even still, the clients and I had a lot of fun personalizing the setup to create a fun and unique vibe that highlighted their personalities on their special day. If you're looking to host your next celebration at a one-of-a-kind venue that's far from your standard hotel ballroom—you've found it at SmogShoppe!

From the moment we started planning our wedding, The Ranch Club stood out as the perfect venue for our special day. Their communication style was fast, understanding, and easy, which helped to ease my anxiety throughout the process. The quality of their work and the overall value was simply beautiful - the natural, peaceful setting was exactly what we were looking for. Jose, Tracy, and April were all so sweet and helpful, I wouldn't have wanted to have our ceremony anywhere else. On the day of the wedding, I felt really nervous and broke down crying due to my anxiety, but Jose and Tracy quickly came to my rescue, got me a bucket, dried my tears, and gave me water until I was ready to continue. April also helped me with any questions I had regarding the wedding day and even recommended an officiant. The Ranch Club truly went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect.
