On Location

By appointment, at your venue

The East Bay covers more ground and more moods than any single label holds, Oakland and Berkeley's historic venues and diverse energy, the waterfront at Alameda and the estuary, and inland, the vineyards of Livermore and the polished suburbs of Danville, Walnut Creek, and Pleasanton.

That range is the point. A wine-country wedding in Livermore costs a fraction of Napa; a historic Oakland ballroom carries a gala; a Danville estate hosts an intimate milestone. We know where each celebration belongs.

It's also one of the most culturally diverse regions in California, and we plan bilingual and multicultural celebrations across it, fluently in Mandarin and Cantonese, so families from the Tri-Valley to the hills feel at home.

Where to Celebrate

Bilingual & Cultural Celebrations

Chinese & Korean ceremonies in the East Bay, done right.

Fremont, Dublin, and the Tri-Valley are home to large and growing Chinese and South Asian communities, and multicultural celebrations are part of the region's fabric. Karina plans bilingual weddings, tea ceremonies, and banquets fluently in Mandarin and Cantonese.

Questions

Planning an East Bay event, answered.

Do you plan weddings and events in the East Bay?
Yes. the East Bay is one of our core service areas. Karina and the One & Only team plan and design here regularly, from full weddings to milestone celebrations and corporate events, and we come to you and your venue by appointment.
Can you plan a bilingual, Chinese, or Korean ceremony in the East Bay?
Yes, and it's one of the reasons families find us. Karina plans fluently in Mandarin and Cantonese and runs tea ceremonies, banquets, dol, and Korean traditions with the etiquette handled correctly, so both families feel at home. the East Bay has a strong community for exactly these celebrations.
How much do wedding and event venues cost in the East Bay?
It ranges widely by season, guest count, and whether the space is all-inclusive or a blank canvas. Instead of quoting a single number, we help you match a venue to your real budget and read the fine print, and we never mark up your vendors.
How far in advance should we book a the East Bay venue?
For peak season the best venues are often reserved nine to twelve months out, and destination weekends earlier still. Off-season and weekday dates open up more room. If your date is close, ask us, we regularly pull together beautiful events on shorter timelines.
What does One & Only handle for an East Bay event?
As much or as little as you need, from full planning and design through day-of coordination: timeline, vendors, layout, styling, and the thousand details a guest never sees, so the day feels effortless to you.
