Awarded Best of Zola
The Chabot Space and Science Center was an INCREDIBLE venue for our wedding! From the very start, the staff was incredibly responsive and clear in their communication, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. We never felt like they were trying to sell us hard on booking with them - there was no pressure during or after our consultation, which I appreciated so much. It gave me confidence that everything they told us was an accurate representation of the venue and experience we would get with them, and that was absolutely true. The venue is also a great value - the museum vibe with access to the large telescopes and spacious indoor and outdoor areas created such a unique and memorable setting. On first glance the space does give a more industrial vibe (it's a space and science center, after all), but the setup and decor we added warmed up the space and it did not feel at all inappropriate for creating a warm and beautiful wedding space. We had 145 guests and the space felt very spacious for that headcount. We could have added more guests comfortably. Our guests absolutely loved the museum aspect, especially the kids who got to interact with the exhibits we chose to have displayed in our reception hall. Chabot was a fun, unique venue with lots of character, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. Plus, it's a nonprofit! If you have to spend money on a venue, you might as well have it go to a good cause and fund some field trips for local kiddos :)

We had our rehearsal dinner here and it was spectacular. From the food (they recommended the caterer. YUM!), to the awesome service from the staff, to the bar/bartenders, and lastly to the outdoor oasis. How did we get so lucky to stumble upon this gem??? I need to find another reason to rent this location again.

We had the wedding reception of our dreams this July! We were drawn to having our 110-person reception at D'Argenzio Winery for countless reasons including great price and a truly beautiful location. Breanna had excellent, understanding, and flexible communication with us for the entire year leading up to our wedding day. We rented the Terrazzo Patio and Tasting Room Lounge and had open seating for the guests so that they could choose to sit inside or outside! Everyone enjoyed the wine, Prosecco, beer, and soft drink offerings at the bar. We absolutely loved Cibo Rustico's catering of antipasto boards, salads, pasta, and chicken offerings. We also had a banda perform late into the night on the bocce ball court following dinner, speeches, and the first dance! You too can have the wedding you always dreamed of at D'Argenzio Winery!
