Chateau Mt. Eden was a fantastic venue for our wedding. Their communication style was simple but clear, which made planning the event very straightforward. The quality of their work and the value they provided was fantastic - the view from their venue overlooking the entire South Bay was absolutely breathtaking. One of the best things about Chateau Mt. Eden was the flexible event space that allowed us to customize the layout to fit our needs. An added bonus was that guests were able to stay on-site, which made the day even more special.

My husband and I chose to have our wedding reception (170 guests) at Fogo de Chão in Santana Row, and we highly recommend it for anyone else considering a restaurant as a venue for a wedding reception. We were already familiar with both the Fogo de Chão San Francisco and Santana Row locations as we had dined at these two locations a few times prior to the wedding (both for date night and family outings). Each time the service was fantastic, so it was an easy choice for the both of us to make. I've assisted in planning wedding receptions for other family members and friends with various, typical, non-restaurant wedding reception venues, each and every time a different headache, so my husband and I knew for sure that choosing a restaurant would be the best choice. The Fogo de Chão team delivered and provided the easiest planning experience by far. Leo and Yelena provided us with timely updates, kept communication open, and kindly received and efficiently executed all of our requests. The night of our reception greatly exceeded our expectations. Fogo de Chão is a beautiful restaurant as is so very, very minimal decorations were needed. The quality of our dinner and service felt so luxurious. The staff was warm, highly attentive and catered to all of our guests' needs; we even had our own designated server for our sweetheart table. From the moment we inquired, all the way to the end of our wedding reception, Leo, Yelena, and the entire Fogo de Chão team made our experience extremely effortless, seamless, and memorable! Our guests to this day still rave about how delicious everything was, and the great time that they had! My husband and I are beyond happy and grateful that we were able to share our wedding day with the Fogo de Chão team. They made our wedding reception an event we will proudly look back on and cherish forever. A very heartfelt thank you to the Fogo de Chão team for this special time!

From our first conversation with the Blanco Urban Venue team, we knew they understood what we wanted for our wedding day. They responded to every question quickly and gave us clear answers, which made the planning process so much easier. The venue itself has this open, and welcoming feel that matched our vision perfectly. On the day of the wedding, they were super accommodating to all of our requests and the staff stayed present throughout the event in case we needed anything. We felt taken care of from start to finish, and our guests loved the space as much as we did. We'd recommend Blanco Urban Venue to any couple looking for a responsive and thoughtful team. This was our dream wedding venue and can't stop thinking about how perfect our wedding day was thanks to the Blanco Urban Venue team. Special shoutout to Renee and Chrissy for all of the support they provided throughout the entire planning process.
