The Peninsula runs from San Francisco's southern edge down toward Silicon Valley, a string of affluent towns, Burlingame, San Mateo, Redwood City, Menlo Park, Atherton, Palo Alto, with the open coast at Half Moon Bay just over the hills.

It's quiet wealth and quiet excellence: garden estates behind hedges, established country clubs, polished bayfront hotels. We plan the length of it, and we know which settings suit a discreet estate wedding versus a corporate evening versus a coastal celebration.

It's also one of the most internationally connected communities in the country, which shapes what we do here, bilingual weddings and milestone banquets are part of the everyday, and Karina runs them fluently in Mandarin and Cantonese.

Questions

Planning a Peninsula event, answered.

Do you plan weddings and events in the Peninsula?
Yes. the Peninsula 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 Peninsula?
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 Peninsula has a strong community for exactly these celebrations.
How much do wedding and event venues cost in the Peninsula?
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 Peninsula 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 a Peninsula 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.
