There’s no wedding venue like it
We absolutely loved having our wedding at the Palace Theater. It’s such a unique and beautiful venue, with something for everyone. We wanted ourselves and our guests to get to enjoy ourselves the way each person wants to, and that is absolutely the experience we had. Our guests were blown away by the environment and range of vibes/activities. The best way we could describe it is fun. We literally have pictures of our guests with jaws dropped as they walked into the cabaret and they learned there was more to the venue. The drinks are excellent and the food options are amazing, we loved supporting other local businesses. Between the cabaret, the casino, the jazz bar, the speakeasy within the speakeasy, the photo booth, and the tarot reader, there’s nothing we would change if we were to do it again. Theres such a range of offerings that you can customize to make it your own. The team there is amazing to work and ideate with in setting up the wedding of our dreams. It felt like they were genuinely having fun planning it with us. Damaris and Geoff were awesome. Also, they have a package that can add an external day-of planner from a partner company, and since we did our ceremony elsewhere, this was huge for making our day perfect and stress-free. Our guests still tell us about how much they loved the experience. We had such an incredible time. Our wedding really felt like it fit us, if you’re looking to have a wedding or event that feels more like you, this is the place to do it.
Response from vendor•Mar 24, 2026Hi Robyn, Thank you so much for this amazing review! It was such a joy working with you to bring your vision to life. We loved planning your wedding with you and helping create an experience that was truly unique, fun, and personalized for you and your guests. We’re thrilled to hear that the cabaret, speakeasy, photo booth, and all the touches made such an impression—and that the day felt stress-free with the support of our team and the optional day-of planner. It was a pleasure collaborating with you, and we’re so glad your celebration was everything you imagined. Warmly, The Palace TheaterUnique & Unconventional 1920s Speakeasy Wedding!
The Palace Theater is an amazing theater company and venue!! We wanted an unconventional wedding, and we wanted it in SF with most of our friends flying in from across the country, so we knew the wedding needed to be special! We couldn't have asked for a better experience having a themed wedding!! We made sure to tell all our friends that our wedding was 1920s Great Gatsby/Speakeasy themed and all our friends showed up leaning hard into the theme, 10/10 no notes. The Palace Theater provided us with a menu of add-ons that we could pick from to enhance the speakeasy and immersive experience, and everyone had a blast!! Since they are a theater company at heart, we were able to make the entire wedding feel more like a complete 1920s evening with all our friends, and they were very accommodating with specific details we wanted to bring to life to make the night feel unique to us. Many of our friends told us it was one of the most unique and fun weddings they've ever attended. We used our own caterer and it was super easy to coordinate with the caterer and the cake delivery directly with TPT -- we didn't have a wedding planner and was better for it! Shout out to the photobooth as well, it's amazing and the photographer helped with posing!!
Response from vendor•Mar 24, 2026Hi Allison, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was such a joy planning your 1920s Speakeasy wedding with you—it was a unique and fun vision, and your friends really leaned into the theme beautifully. We’re thrilled to hear that everything came together smoothly and that we were able to take care of all the details without another planner. Knowing that the theater experience, immersive touches, and photobooth helped make the night so memorable for you and your guests truly means a lot to us. It was such a pleasure to be part of your celebration, and we’re so glad it turned out exactly as you imagined! Warmly, The Palace TheaterBEST WEDDING EVER!!!!!!
The Palace Theater was an ABSOLUTE DREAM to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, with Logan and then Damaris, the entire team was so kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. They went above and beyond to make our vision a reality, accommodating our requests with a positive and creative attitude. The production team was incredibly attentive and supportive throughout the entire event, ensuring that every detail was executed to perfection. The musical cues, video presentation, and special touches like letting us use our moon cut-out were exactly as we envisioned. We couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else - this place is pure magic! Thank you Damaris, Logan, Nick, Sean, the AV team, and everyone else who made our day so incredibly special. It was better than I ever could have dreamed!!!!!!
Response from vendor•Mar 24, 2026Hi Bree, Wow! Thank you so much for this incredible review! Reading your words truly made our day. It was such an honor to be part of your wedding, and I’m so thrilled that everything—from the production touches to the AV details—helped bring your vision to life. Your kind words mean the world to our team, and we’re so grateful you took the time to share your experience. Knowing that your wedding was everything you dreamed of is exactly why we do what we do! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and magic, just like your wedding day. With gratitude, Damaris
