The University City Club is pretty nice.

Our budget & guestcount is very similar to yours.  Try the Cova Hotel in SF. We're having our ceremony & reception on the 8th floor rooftop with lovely city views.  Their rental fees are VERY reasonable and they even allow outside catering which can definitely keep down the costs.

OMG! Thanks atejada! I thought for sure I had found every possible outdoor venue in the city. ;)  And welcome to PW!

You're welcome SanFran!  Let me know how your search goes!  Their event coordinator, Mohi, is a doll to work with :)

What is your final venue, San Fran?

Ended up going with Hotel Vitale. :)

Looks like a great venue. Love the views !! Good choice.
