Chabot Space & Science Center

The Chabot Space & Science Center is located off of Skyline Drive in the Oakland Hills, right between Joaquin Miller and Redwood Regional Park. The interior is modern, so mood lighting or decorations are required to make it more intimate. You can rent any of the floors in the main building, as well as the courtyard, amphitheater, or planetarium. Private planetarium/telescope viewings can be booked for an additional cost. All wedding bookings are 7-hour time blocks, including setup/clean-up.

Upper rotunda on 2nd floor of Spees Building. Chinese dragon star-mapping sculpture in middle of room. All glass windows surrounding, looks out over lush green forest area. Very pretty.
Skybridge connecting Dellums Building to Spees 2nd Floor.
EnviroGarden. Would be neat place for ceremony or cocktail hour.
Patio tent and path leading to amphitheater below.
Pleiades Courtyard with glass sky bridge above. Very pretty and intimate area.
Cafe area. I think they contract this space out to external business, so I'm not sure if you can use it with your rental. Would be a nice place for buffet though.
