Weddings
25 of the Bay Area's Most Stunning Wedding Venues
Bay Area wedding venues are some of the most exclusive and sought after in the country, for good reason. Many of these breathtaking venues offer obviously beautiful amenities such as ocean or sprawling vineyard views while others are more subtle, like wedding toasts made with estate wines or the option to arrive at your ceremony by boat. A few of these wedding venues have been around for decades or even centuries, passed down from generation to generation, imbuing those spectacular spaces with a special kind of “marry-making” magic found in few other places. From intimate, mountainside canyon ranches to time worn winery ruins, organic apple orchards, architecturally significant turn-of-the-century buildings, waterfront lighthouses and oceanfront barns, here are 24 reasons to get married in the Bay Area. Planning a wedding? Offer your guests exclusive room rates (without making a room block!) with this link → Reporter: Katie Bush | Location: Peace Barn
