Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧 The Year of the Snake 🐍 is a time for wisdom, transformation, and strategic growth. Just as the snake sheds its skin, this year brings opportunities for renewal, deeper self-awareness, and shedding what no longer serves you. It’s a year to trust your instincts, move with purpose, and embrace the changes that lead to success. With patience and focus, great things will unfold—new opportunities, stronger connections, and the clarity to navigate life’s challenges with grace. May this year bring wisdom, prosperity, and positive transformation to all!

“Jumping the broom” 🧹 refers to a wedding tradition, mostly practiced by African Americans, where a couple symbolically seals their union by jumping over a decorated broom, signifying a new beginning often honoring their ancestors’ struggles and to publicly declare their commitment to one another. Whether you want a traditional wedding or non-traditional, incorporate what’s important to you as a couple. It’s your day! ❤️

The Terrace Room is known to many as a hidden gem, tucked inside what was once The Lake Merritt Hotel (now apartments) with panoramic views of Oakland’s jewel, Lake Merritt. This Mediterranean Art Deco building was built in 1927, and was once a trendy hot spot, featuring Big Bands and dancing, including Count Basie. We are proud to be a part of and all of its charm! Schedule a visit to see why we are an award winning venue!
