Ciel Creative Space

Ciel Creative Space (Ciel II) was the perfect wedding venue for us, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We were recommended Ciel by our wedding planners at Weddings in Color after visiting a few similar venues in San Francisco. From the moment we toured Ciel, it instantly became our top choice, and we knew it was the venue we had envisioned for our celebration. We wanted a wedding that felt more casual and less traditional, focusing primarily on the reception, and Ciel met all our expectations. The space itself is stunning, with high ceilings, lots of natural light, hanging and potted plants everywhere, and an open, airy atmosphere.

It’s hard to fully capture how amazing CIEL Studio truly is. We started as tenants, renting an upstairs office space, then later used their studios to host community events for our business — and along the way, we also attended many of the incredible art and community gatherings they organized.

Great meeting space, perfect for catering and any size event! Parking was super easy right on the street, great location as well. Should you be needing event space in the East Bay, you cannot go wrong!
