This venue has no bad angles. I only knocked off a star because it was freezing and windy for the outdoor ceremony - hey, it's SF so what can you expect? I was worried the wedding chuppah was going to fly away during the ceremony, but it miraculously stayed put.

Captivating views!…read more Attended a wedding in this venue two weekends ago. Inside, as we entered and signed-in at the foyer, there hung a beautiful vintage glass chandelier above hardwood floors and featured a fireplace in the center, very inviting for us wedding guests. The furnitures and fixtures had vintage touch: leather chairs, mirrors, wooden shelves, etc.) As we made our way inside we headed back outside and down the steps towards the garden. The wedding was held outdoors on the back lawn of the historic General's Residence. We faced the scenic San Francisco Bay with the Aquatic Park, Angel Island and Alcatraz as the backdrop and provided some beautiful views for our pictures. After the wedding we were led to the Lounge where we had cocktails and hors-d'œuvre while we mingled and chit-chatted with the other guests. The Lounge, Dining Room, and Ballroom had floor to ceiling windows and offered captivating and panoramic views of the Bay. There is an elevator in the building. The front and interior of the structure has that historic look. Love the charm and elegance it possesses. This was my first time attending a wedding in this venue. I am here as a guest. I would imagine that it would be expensive to rent this place. I believe the place can also be rented for other events such as conferences or other private gatherings (birthdays, memorial, etc). Parking can be a challenge especially when there is a lot going on. It was nice to be a part of this couple's wedding in this National Historic Landmark on the San Francisco waterfront. Just beautiful! Review #0292

The Chapel of Our Lady at the Presidio is a phenomenal Church that I highly recommend to everyone…read more I recently attended a wedding here and was blown away by the Chapel. It seriously is a perfect place to attend mass or have a small to moderately sized wedding. Across the street is a massive parking lot making it easy for attendees to park and not have to walk very far. It is paid parking and there is a machine where you input your license plate number and pay. Parking pricing is very fair (especially for being in the City) and they do accept Apple Pay! Outside of the Chapel is a large grounds area. This makes it perfect for photo opportunities, even for large groups. It also makes for a great spot for early comers to hang out and socialize with others in a safe, relatively quiet area. We were able to greet everyone and take a lot of pictures before the ceremony. Inside the Chapel you'll find a large yet cozy Church environment. There are plenty of pews to accommodate a decent amount of guests but not too large where a small party feels out of place- it's just right! The statues, décor, carpeting and all other aspects of the Chapel give off a magical aura. Off to the side in the back is a small room and bathroom. This made a perfect area for the groom and a few members of his party to setup and idle until the ceremony started. Overall, a great place to get married, especially if you have a 'smaller' guest list. It's easy to get to and out of. There is a venue hall right next door as well as a restaurant a few doors down. Parking is easy and safe while still giving you City vibes. I had a great time and look forward to being back!

Our wedding was 9/27/25 so the weather that day was great. It was blue skies the day before and slightly cloudy on the day of the wedding but it was even better for the photography lighting. I really liked the log cabin vibe. I initially was thinking of a forest wedding type vision and I just liked the bridge and city views too much so it kind of was the best of both worlds. Wedgewood planning team: Everyone we worked with were great. Communication was easy to tour the venue and booking it. All our questions were answered throughout the entire process. The online planning template made everything easy. The tasting was an easy process. The all in one package was perfect for my needs. Every major aspect of a wedding was covered in the package. The entire day timeline was set up well before the wedding so we could relax a little to focus on the specific personality decors. Day of Wedding: Jolina was our day of coordinator and she was excellent. All the decorations were set up and she made our vision come true. I was mentally prepared for some kind of hiccup in the day since there's many moving parts but everything went as smooth and as timely as it could be. Rehearsal the day before really helped. We were also able to do a tea ceremony inside log cabin right before the first look. Ceremony went well. Dinner food was even better than the tasting. Bar was friendly and fast. I was wondering if there would be a bottle neck since we had a lot of guest that drank but nope. Clean up at the end of the night went really smooth. The staff helped packed the personal decorations for us so it made leaving the venue really smooth. Overall: I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day. I just couldn't believe how well it went and I will remember this forever. The one thing that maybe can be brainstormed is maybe having some kind of dedicated changing room. The venue itself is not huge and every room has its purpose already. So just a heads up about planning where to get ready beforehand and the getting ready photos. Getting ready photos weren't a big deal for me and also I had no wedding party. Just something to think about.

There was a separate area I stepped through to get to the bathroom, and that was really nice too. It was a sit-down restaurant setup. But this work party experience? I'll never forget it, and I'd recommend it as a venue for anyone who wants to put a dope party together.

It was really nice to see the sunlight come through on the daytime with the open roof concept. The music was a lovely experience as well. I really enjoyed it. Given how packed it was, I stood the entire time, even though I had gotten there probably 15 minutes before the show started. There was a huge line for the coffee when I arrived that didn't let up until halfway through the show. They are doing this again in September and I would recommend if you are in the area. The only thing that would have made it better would have been less people given the amount of chatter and distraction of people walking by. I'm curious as to what this venue looks like in other set ups and at different times of the day because it is beautiful, what a nice spot in San Francisco.

The space was perfect for everything we needed, and although we had our ceremony down the road at Old Mill Park, it would have been a beautiful place to have that too. The space is so gorgeous it needs very little additional decoration, and everything you add is just magnified by the surroundings. As a historic building in a small town they have a number of rules and restrictions, and when we decided to book I did wonder if they might be difficult to plan around. But it wasn't hard at all, and everything from the decor to the music was exactly as I hoped and not held back at all. I would definitely strongly recommend booking vendors who are familiar with OAC though, because with them you never have to worry about a thing, knowing they have it handled! I'll specifically mention music volume, as that was the main thing I worried about - we wanted a dance party, and we got one without any issue! Our DJ (Airsun) was really familiar with OAC and with our coordinator (Stacey Dillon) - who herself works there all the time - and they all knew what they needed to do, so I didn't worry for even a second about it. And I never would have guessed there were any sound restrictions by the experience, it didn't hold back the party at all. The facilities manager Dave did a great job with setup and was so kind and helpful about drop off and pickup of all our stuff. We also worked with Rodney of Marin Event Lighting to hang bistro lights (he is the only one allowed to do it) and they were gorgeous and perfect. They also require you work with one of their approved caterers, and Sage did a phenomenal job! OAC is a stunning hidden gem in Mill Valley and I would highly recommend it for any event!

We had our wedding in September 2023 at the Outdoor Art Club, and I could not be happier with every detail. We had visited many venues, and nothing gave us the right vibe until we stepped foot into the OAC. What's most important to me is always the people, and every single person we got to work with there was beyond helpful and kind. David helped us plan out the most perfect layout for our group. He is so fun and a true delight to be around. He made everything flow and planning with him was a piece of cake because he knows exactly what to do! Mary was welcoming from Day 1, super responsive always, and a pleasure to work with. Kenny was also a great person to meet, and he does a great job with the grounds - always offering a kind word and a smile! Hilary was there the day of our wedding and she kept everything in check. Beyond the people, the venue is so naturally beautiful and has such a storied history. Guests were so happy to be there, and kept commenting on how beautiful the flowers and grounds were kept. You also cannot beat the location to downtown Mill Valley, and yet it still feels very tucked away and private from the hustle and bustle of the town! We are so happy to have had our special day at the Outdoor Art Club with all the wonderful OAC staff and volunteers who made it a happen.

She's goes above and beyond to help clients with their needs and provided great communication throughout the entire process. We also really appreciated having Cindi on site to help direct guests, manage the parking lot and overall keep things smooth day of. We did a smaller ceremony in the Dining Room and it was tight but they made it happen for approximately 90 seated guests. We fit everyone comfortably with a dance floor in the Ballroom. There was definitely room for more tables but we had trimmed our guest list down since 2021 wasn't the best time to gather. We loved having a separate Bar Room and also made use of the Dominoes Room for our photo booth. Cocktails Hour and our after dinner Churros Truck was perfect outdoors in the front entrance. The only thing we didn't love was that it gets quite warm in Hillsborough in the late summer and the rooms were a bit stuffy with zero AC. We learned this during our final walkthrough of the space and immediately purchased some large Vornado fans for our Ceremony and Reception areas. We missed getting one for the Bridal Room but we suggest that you do!

The beautiful reception was held at Hillsborough Racquet Club. What an elegant location for an intimate wedding venue! (see pics). The club had a small bar, and adjacent to the bar was a beautiful medium size ballroom that could probably hold anywhere from 200 to 300 people. I'm not sure if the food was catered in, or if they made it on-site. The buffet dinner served that evening was American, with Prime Rib as the jewel of the evening! Sorry gang.......I was totally pigging out and forgot to get some food pics, but believe me.........the food was excellent! Service was very attentive, as the banquet workers were quick to replenish things (water & drinks), as well as take away dirty dishes from the table. Congratulations to my friends -Will & Leticia!
