I had a wonderful Gratitude Party for my clients. They all loved the space- it was large enough for us to set up a Photo Booth and set up a food station with tables. The large bathroom and kitchen have all the essentials. I would definitely do another event here and I’ve already started recommending this beautiful event space.

Great experience! The host was very accommodating, the space was perfect for a small music performance. One small thing I would have liked is for the sound system to be operating for vocal mics but it wasn’t. Other than that, I would recommend!

The apartment was fairly spacious for an open-plan 1 bedroom. The decor was cute and modern. The building itself was lovely and has many accommodations including a rooftop with a view of the city, meeting rooms, and a nature-filled little oasis in the central courtyard. The host, Erin, was very communicative and helpful from booking to check-out.

Pros and Cons of San Francisco's Outdoor Parties

San Francisco has art galleries, stately estates, upscale restaurants, and other top-rated venues for your celebration. However, like anywhere else, San Francisco has merits and setbacks; knowing how to deal with the challenges can help you pull off a successful event.

Advantages

  • Outdoor venues usually have more room for attendees than indoor spaces. There can even be ample space for the food set-up and a dance floor for the party.

Disadvantages

  • The weather is quite unpredictable; fog and rain may ruin your time outside, so it's best to have an indoor backup.

  • An outdoor party may be subject to insects, noise restrictions, or other annual festivals and events.

  • Outdoor locations are usually more expensive at certain times of the year. They are cheaper to rent in the winter and more costly in the spring and summer.
