Fees, Features, & FurnishingsTucked deep in the redwoods of Tilden Regional Park, the Brazilian Room feels like it stepped straight out of a storybook—then decided to host weddings. If your vision includes towering redwood forests, Arts & Crafts charm, and a sprinkle of Bay Area nostalgia, this is your spot. The venue itself is timeless: think rich timber beams, massive windows that flood the space with natural light, and a redwood grove that effortlessly steals the show in your ceremony photos (no rental arches needed here). For a high-season Saturday, the facility fee typically falls between $5,500–$6,500—an incredible value for a venue with this much character. Plus, the 10-hour rental window gives you plenty of breathing room for setup, celebration, and teardown—no need to rush With room for 120–150 guests, the Brazilian Room offers both indoor and outdoor spaces, so you’re covered no matter how the East Bay weather decides to play out.

Wedding Day BlueprintAt Brazilian Room, the day unfolds the way a forest wedding should: grounded, intentional, and just structured enough to keep everyone where they’re supposed to be. Pre-CeremonyGetting ready happens nearby, off-site or tucked into the park’s quiet corners, where the eucalyptus trees set the tone early. Photographers warm up on the stone paths and redwood backdrops. No one rushes. The woods do the calming for you. Ceremony | Redwood GroveGuests gather beneath towering redwoods just steps from the building. Chairs line up on the forest floor, light filters through branches, and the moment lands softly. This is the most popular ceremony spot for a reason—it feels sacred without trying too hard. Appetizers & Cocktails | Brazilian Room PatioAfter vows, everyone drifts onto the patio. Glasses clink. Passed bites circulate. Conversations restart mid-sentence. The transition feels natural, not staged—like the day is unfolding instead of being directed. Reception | Brazilian Room InteriorDinner moves inside the historic Brazilian Room itself. Warm wood walls, tall windows, and built-in charm do most of the work. Tables glow. The room hums. This space likes long dinners and good speeches. Dancing & MerrimentAs dinner clears, the floor opens. Music fills the room, shoes come off, and suddenly it’s a party. Send-OffThe night ends quietly, wrapped in trees and satisfied sighs. This blueprint is a building block—you absolutely can remix it, swap sites, and sprinkle in your personality. At Brazilian Room, we believe your wedding should feel effortlessly you, and we’ll quietly smooth the edges while you shine. View the Gallery |

Food & BeverageThe Brazilian Room – think rich wood interiors, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a flagstone patio with views so good, they should come with a warning: may cause jaw-dropping. Even the food & beverage setup strikes a perfect balance—structured enough to protect the park but flexible enough to let couples craft menus that scream “this is so us!” The Brazilian Room doesn’t do in-house catering. Instead, they hand you a cheat sheet—a vetted list of caterers who know this venue like the back of their hand. These pros are seasoned in handling everything from utility quirks to load-in rules to park service guidelines (because nobody wants an angry park ranger crashing their first dance). So while you’ll need to bring your dream menu to life with their approved experts, rest assured—you’re in good hands. Take a Closer Look |
