Bay Area Couples

Feeling overwhelmed with possibilities? Don’t fret. Yes, there are a million decisions to work out, but when you choose a Wedgewood Weddings venue, you get more than just an incredible location; you also get a team of wedding professionals who won’t let you overlook even the smallest detail. We understand that a Bay Area wedding is unlike any other. It’s a unique mix of urban and beach, it can be complicated by transportation and weather, and it’s filled with awesome people like you!

The San Francisco Bay Area surrounds the San Francisco, San Pablo, and Suisun Bay estuaries in Northern California. We combine the Bay area with the Central California Coast and the Sacramento Region, as many couples are happy to convert their wedding into a fun-filled mini-break for them and their guests. Did you know that most couples arrange weddings within 60 minutes of their homes? Conversely, couples with a destination wedding will often travel thousands of miles. In the middle of the math are Californians who are often happy to travel up to three hours to find their dream wedding venue!

Home to approximately 8 million people, Northern California's Bay Area & Central Coast is the second most populated area in California and the fifth largest in the United States. What does that mean for weddings? That they're popular, constant, and diverse! From large formal affairs to smaller boho options, NorCal is one of the most interesting places to get married this year!
