Spacious parkland combines with historic charm and unique architecture to create a gorgeous wedding and events venue at Hacienda de las Flores. You and your guests will have access to the property's scenic grounds, complete with lush greenery and gardens. This historic Town-owned property includes the Hacienda de las Flores, Pavilion, La Sala, Casita and a large lawn enhanced by blue atlas trees, willows, palms and flowers. Tranquil and secluded, Hacienda de las Flores offers one of the prettiest garden environments for your wedding in the East Bay.

We had a wonderful wedding - the Wedgewood team helped us create a meaningful ceremony and reception. The pictures online do not do this place justice - you have to see it for yourself! The grounds are beautiful; we had our ceremony at the pavilion and our reception in the garden area / in their indoor hall area. The venue definitely felt like a fairy / cottage core dream to me! Wedgewood also vendors that work with them and provide really excellent services - florals, music, cakes. If you want to have an awesome wedding and reduce your stress, I would check this place out.

The Terrace Room 

5.0

Oakland, CA
  • Up to 190 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $13,500

Oakland’s Most Enchanting Wedding & Celebration Venue Our panoramic view encompasses the blue-green of Lake Merritt and the lush Oakland hills. A special treat for evening events is the Necklace of Lights, which is a chain of lights on ornate Victorian light poles that surround the entire lake

We will forever remember our gorgeous Oakland wedding at the Terrace Room. This venue highlights the beauty of Oakland, especially at night. It’s absolutely stunning. Candi (the event coordinator) was super sweet and worked with us faithfully, even through two COVID-19 postponements. After hearing about all the horrors couples went through with unaccommodating venues, Terrace Room made it easy to stick it out with them to have the wedding we originally wanted. Their food is fantastic as well! We keep getting compliments on it from our guests to this day. Choosing Terrace Room meant knocking out many to-do’s off our wedding planning list, as they provide a lot of services in their pricing. Speaking of price, this place can’t be beat. You get a lot for your money. Take a look at their preferred vendor list as well, they have some winners! Thank you eternally to Candi and Terrace Room for hosting the most beautiful night of our lives.

The team at the Chabot did a great job facilitating our wedding, and the venue was excellent - we used the planetarium for our ceremony, and the 2nd floor Spees for the reception Strengths: - Nicole, Samantha, and the other staff at the CSSC were helpful and professional. They assisted in planning the event (thinking through what spaces work well for what activities), worked well with other vendors (including our band who was new to the space), and were accessible and effective on the day of the wedding which helped ensure the event went smoothly and was fun for all - The event space is visually interesting so you do not need much (if any) decoration - we did no florals beyond bouquets and simple table decorations - Exhibits and telescope viewings allow guests more options for activities beyond the common drinks and dancing (which you can also do) - Venue offers the option to rent furniture, which is one fewer thing to think about - CSSC provides a list of recommended vendors can be useful for narrowing search (even for services where they do not require you to select from the list) Things to think about: - Some restrictions on vendors (catering specifically) mean you cannot fully customize and does add costs, but also means that vendors are pre-vetted - Renting rooms/areas for pre-wedding prep is extra - be advised - Telescope viewings subject to weather - While we have heard it can be difficult to get rides to/from the venue, none of our guests had issues (but several did opt to carpool) Overall, it was a great experience made possible by the site and the team at the CSSC - we are very happy with our choice

We just had our wedding at Sequoyah this past weekend. Everything was perfect. The venue itself is stunning. It is such a beautiful setting for a wedding. We had our ceremony on the lawn and the reception inside. We spent the day getting ready on site and my entire bridal party kept commenting on how nice everything was. My dream was to get married amongst the redwoods and I cannot wait to see the photos from the day. The food was next level. When I say the food was delicious, I don't mean "for a wedding". We had many guests compliment the food. I have a friend who is an admitted "steak snob". She made sure I knew how good the filet was. Finally, the entire staff was wonderful to work with. We originally met with Andrea who showed us the venue. She was a big reason we chose Sequoyah. Andrea and Sally were helpful and flexible throughout the planning process. They were very responsive and made the process as easy as it could be. We hired a month-of coordinator who agreed they were wonderful. I would also like to mention Emma, who was so thoughtful and kind throughout the evening. After the wedding, I mentioned some of the nice things Emma did to my family and bridal party. Others had similar stories. She truly went above-and-beyond. I cannot recommend Sequoyah enough. They gave me the perfect wedding experience!
