  • Haas-Lilienthal House

    2007 Franklin St, San Francisco, CA 94109, USA

    History The 11,500 square foot Haas-Lilienthal House, designed by architect Peter R. Schmidt for William and Bertha Haas and built in 1886, represents both the ambitious spirit of San Francisco's pioneers and its great Victorian-period architecture. It survived the 1906 earthquake and fire and remained in the Haas-Lilienthal family until 1973, when the House was entrusted to a new architectural preservation organization, The Foundation for San Francisco's Architectural Heritage, by the three adult children of the recently deceased Alice Haas-Lilienthal (now SF Heritage). The H-L Home subsequently became their new headquarters after some planning, and it was rapidly turned into offices, a house museum with docent-led public tours, and a sophisticated location for special functions. In addition, SF Heritage created an extremely effective teaching program for third graders to learn more about architecture, preservation, and nineteenth-century living. Today, this exuberant Queen Anne style home survives as a site of national cultural and architectural significance. In addition to being on the National Register of Historic Places and San Francisco Landmark #69, the House was designated a National Treasure in 2012 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

    The Crest Theater is a historic entertainment venue located at 1013 K Street in the heart of downtown Sacramento, California, just blocks from the State Capitol and the Sacramento Convention Center. Originally opened in 1912 as the Empress Theatre — a vaudeville palace — the building was completely reimagined following a major renovation in 1949 and emerged as the Crest Theatre in its current form. A further refurbishment in 1995 restored the venue's ornate gold-leaf art deco interior to its mid-century splendor. Today, The Crest Theater hosts a broad range of events in its main auditorium, including classic and specialty film screenings, live concerts, comedy performances, lectures, and community festivals. With seating for up to 975 guests and a full stage, professional sound system, and professional lighting, the venue accommodates productions of genuine scale. The theater also features an onsite restaurant, Empress Tavern, in its lower level. For private events, The Crest Theater is available for day and evening rentals and has hosted political fundraisers, receptions, corporate conferences, employee orientations, and wedding celebrations. The venue is wheelchair accessible and situated in a walkable downtown neighborhood with paid parking options nearby.

The course's layout combines ample landing zones that promote playability with fascinating green complexes that provide just the right amount of difficulty for players of all skill levels.

  • Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden

    1690 John F Kennedy Dr, San Francisco, CA 94121, USA

    The Queen Wilhelmina Garden, located beneath the majestic Dutch (North) windmill at the west end of Golden Gate Park, has been entertaining visitors since the 1900s. The garden is named after Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, who is famous for reigning longer than any previous Dutch monarch. The Dutch Bulb Growers' Association donates flower bulbs every year. The garden's tulips are a major attraction for tourists and wedding groups alike, and are best seen between March 15 and April 15. The lack of the option of amplified music is a requirement for securing a wedding date at the Queen Wilhelmina Garden. This means you will have to come up with different ways to include music in your ceremony or reception, like as hiring live musicians or using light recorded sound - like a 'boom box.' QUEEN WILHELMINA GARDEN WEDDING CEREMONY PACKAGES Golden Gate Park is a lovely and romantic setting for a wedding celebration. We have teamed up with San Francisco Weddings, an all-inclusive wedding planning company, to make your big day at Golden Gate Park a memorable one. We provide a variety of Queen Wilhelmina Garden Wedding Ceremony options, including everything from permits to flowers. SF STANDARD The Ceremony Month-Of Preparation Package is designed for couples who have completed the majority of their wedding planning and would like a professional to come in and tie up loose ends, confirm specifics, and conduct their ceremony. RED ESSENTIALS The Ceremony Month-of-Planning Package includes vendors for the busy couple that needs month-of assistance as well as the essential vendors for a simple ceremony. GOLD SIGNATURE The Ceremony Month-Of Planning Package includes suppliers for the busy couple who needs month-of assistance and all the bells and whistles to complete their ceremony.
