Average Base Cost: $38,000

Their most common wedding setup is a ceremony in one of the first floor Courts, followed by a cocktail reception on the Loggia, and dinner and dancing in Samsung Hall. This option is best suited for 200 guests.

Bridal Suite:  “The Peterson Room & Tea Garden” is a complimentary Wedding Party room that features a small outdoor garden space perfect for a maximum of 30 guests. The Peterson Room is available as soon as the museum closes to the public and is great for family photos, tea ceremonies, or taking time to relax before the festivities begins.

How Will Grandma Get There? The museum is located in the heart of San Francisco’s Civic Center, just a few blocks from Moscone Center, Union Square hotels, parking, and public transportation systems (BART & MUNI).

Party On!  Events can go until 2 a.m. (Woo-hoo!)

The Report:
