About this vendor
THE BOX SF is a wedding venue located in San Francisco, CA. Celebrate your special day surrounded by glowing antique wood, twinkling bulbs, natural light, and a mix of modern and vintage charm, all housed in a historic San Francisco building!
This is a premier event venue nestled in San Francisco, with several unique spaces for rent in our historic four story building! Originally a historic 1920s printing plant which printed William Randolph Hearst's San Francisco Examiner, the building now offers space for private events as well as housing the largest antiquarian paper and advertising store in the United States!
On our Top Floor we offer two versatile spaces for your event: The Main Room and The Gate Room. Our Gate Room contains the antique Gate Table, which is is 338 years old and is the oldest and longest-running dining and meeting table in the United States. This room has hosted hundreds of private events and wedding receptions. Outside the Gate Room, the top floor has a total capacity of 80 guests. Our Main Room can be arranged in several layouts, from theater style to various reception setups. All bookings include the services of an onsite Venue Manager to manage facility use, coordinate technical support, catering load-in, furniture delivery, and vendor setup, and ensure that your event runs smoothly. The event space is available to rent in two eight-hour blocks: from 8 am - 4 pm and from 4 pm - 12 am.
Our Second Floor also features three small suites available for rent, which is ideal for bridal parties and smaller groups. For special occasions, we have a historic letterpress printing shop and 1850s mercantile on our ground floor. It can be rented for photoshoots and receptions for 10 to 50 people. And a hidden Speakeasy called "The Sipping Room," which can seat up to 8-10 people at a time. This space is accessible through two antique fireplaces and is available as a special add-on package for guests booking events on the upper floors.

REVIEWS FROM PAST COUPLES!
My wife and I hosted our wedding reception at the top floor of The Box SF, and had a wonderful experience! The space is beautiful and unique and we and our guests loved it. Staff during the event was very professional and courteous, and the event coordinators were stellar before during and after the event. The Box SF has a list of caterers they recommend and prefer, which made our selection process much easier (and the food was wonderful!) We elected to include the speakeasy tour as part of our reception and Mark led wonderful tours for all of the guests, it was a highlight of the event. Would definitely recommend The Box SF to anyone looking to hold a unique and classy event!
The Event Producer and Venue Manager at The Box SF was an absolute dream to work with leading up to our wedding reception and during the actual party! She went above and beyond, assured us everything would go as planned.
