Weddings at the City Club Whinston & Kim 4.03.09

One of the things that I love about weddings and particularly about the wedding venue is how every couple makes it their own. Each couple selects the venue that they feel is perfect for their day and if you ask they reasons that they find it so well fitted the answers run the gamut. Whether it be the location, the food, the atmosphere and decor or some combination of it all, eventually the decision is made. Chances are, other people have also been married in the same location so personalizing the venue to reflect you as a couple and your journey to that day becomes the next step!

Julie and Adam did such a wonderful job doing this and I think that was one of the main reasons that I’m still hearing compliments about this particular event. From the first conversation that I had with them I could tell that they were true adventurers always looking for their next destination. They happened to become engaged on a trip to Morocco and had decided to work this into the wedding day. It was really important to the couple that who they were as individuals and a couple shone through and that their guests had a wedding experience as unique as their relationship.

A Moroccan themed print (picked out on the trip) was present from the Wedding Invitations, to the Ceremony Programs all the way to the Cake made by Carolyn Wong. They customized a masterfully prepared menu by Executive Chef Michael Munoz, including Seasoned Veggie Skewers, Panzanella Bread Salad and Moroccan spiced Tri-Tip, all served family style. A photo-booth provided by Photoboof, Henna Artist from Henna Gardens and jeweled trinket boxes for place cards all helped to complete the theme. With San Francisco street names as table numbers and a personalized song about their life, there was no doubt where this couple was from, where they’ve been and where they are going! Congratulations to Julie and Kim on beautiful day!

Leave the Theme to Us

Who said party planning was hard? If you are planning a Birthday celebration, Wedding, or Corporate event, leave the theme to us. You might be thinking right now, what does that mean?

Well, literally take advantage of us. The City Club of San Francisco has one of the cities richest histories. Our beautiful Art Deco interior is amazing. From the greeting at the front doors, to the outside exterior, to the ceilings on the 10th and 11th floors, don’t forget the elevator doors which brought you up to those levels, the staircase you can walk by, the marble table you can display food on, the couches and chairs you can sit on, the marble carvings on the walls, the multiple fireplaces, the secret cabinets, and the art all around the venue, leave the theme to us!

Don’t hassle yourself with new ideas, theme your event around our space. We can provide you
with all of the creative elements you may need to pull of a one of a kind event. Let your creative juices flow and use what The City Club has to offer and let’s entertain your guests.



From your invitations, to the style of your desserts, to the colors of your linens, to the type of food served, the beverages your guests enjoy, and the glasses your guests drink from, the music selection you chose, and to the attire you request from your guests, it’s easy once you leave the theme to us.






We promise to help you make all of this happen as we truly are the experts. We love to see our clients take advantage of us and in return delight their guests.
