Do you want traditional elegance? Done. What about sleek minimalism? You can have that too. What if you want to express yourselves with a funky, modern wedding?

You may choose to hang curtains around the windows to create a private, intimate experience, or you can leave the glass walls bare and let your guests and wedding party soak in the beauty of San Francisco.
Ceremony and Reception Venues
City View is divided into three spaces: the Twin Peaks, the Embarcadero, and the Presidio, all of which exit onto a portion of the Terrace. Each of these ample spaces allows between 200 and 850 guests. If you want to host your ceremony or reception on the Terrace during inclement weather, you may enclose the entire Terrace in a classy transparent tent and still enjoy the breathtaking views on a rainy day.
You can section off the interior areas of the building in whatever way suits you, creating your own bride’s dressing area, for example. In the photograph below, the locale has been transformed into an elegant reception ballroom. Possibilities are endless at a City View at Metreon wedding.
