De Young Museum

The newest wedding venue addition to San Francisco is the De Young Museum which recently opened its gallery spaces for private rental. This means you and your guests can have cocktails in and around the art and tour special galleries and traveling exhibits.  Until recently the galleries were off limits and only available for corporate or museum-related functions.  The tower at the De Young is the highlight. The beautiful ceremony area at Shakespeare’s Garden is a short walk from the
De Young.

Tips
  • #31 FLORAL DECOR
    No wedding is complete without flowers. Try updating the traditional centerpiece by using masses of your favorite flowers in a variety of complementary tones for added texture and interest. For instance, if your bloom-of-choice is the gerbera daisy, try one centerpiece with dozens of red gerberas, another with orange, and another with fuchsia-colored bunches. Let your imagination run wild!

  • #21 LA FLEUR TABLE
    Cover your entire table top with a single bold color of petals. Not just a scattering, but the entire top of the table with a thick layer of petals! You can purchase them at a farmers market or order them through your florist. Place your chargers, place settings, glassware and centerpieces in a contrasting color and lots of candles directly onto the petals for a stunning, romantic look!

  • # 6  RECIPES FOR FAVORS
    Gather together the favorite recipes that you remember as a child. They could be special family recipes, holiday menus, etc.  Have them bound in small books, affix a wedding label on the front with your monogram and date that you were married. And there you have it, a unique favor that your guests will use again and again. Also, it is a wonderful way to acknowledge grandmothers and mothers.
