Blanco Urban Venue - San Jose, California

My wife and I had our wedding at Blanco and loved it! The venue is beautiful and the staff are professional, experienced, and the pricing was transparent/clear. We loved having the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one location (makes it easier to plan and easier for the guests). We had our ceremony on the top level, which has beautiful plants/trees and a clean overall look (made for great photos as well). The staff put up the sun shades during the ceremony so that our guests could be comfortable on the hot day but still get a nice outside feel. The cocktail hour on the second floor mezzanine was wonderful, the bartenders were quite good, and there is a nice view of the surrounding area. The reception area downstairs has a clean look and was spacious enough for our ~105 guests, DJ, bar, and buffet area. Overall, our experience having our wedding at Blanco was awesome. Highly recommend for weddings.

This is a stunning venue with the best team who will make your event extra special!

I coordinated a wedding at Blanco Urban Venue and enjoyed working with Renee and the team. Renee is proactive, smart and hard working and very detail oriented. Our event was a big success and our clients and guests were elated and happy.

I recommend this venue for your event needs. Dina from Dina's Deluxe Events, Los Gatos, CA

This is a unique wedding venue. Don't be afraid by the prices, there's a damn good reason why they charge that much and it's worth every cent.

The flexibility and peace of mind Blanco and their staff like Hailey and Chrissy provide is unheard of in wedding planning. I have heard of other venues demanding certain rules to be followed, particularly to squeeze more money out of you. Blanco worked with us till the very end and made sure that we felt comfortable throughout the wedding. What venue goes out of their way last minute to get a liquor of your choice for the wedding? My guests LOVED that they did that and it really brought the wedding to life.

My wife and I hope that we will have friends that host a wedding at Blanco because we want to experience this venue as GUESTS next time. We really want to come back and will be referring this venue as much as we can in the hopes we can return!

Thank you so much Hailey and Chrissy!!!!!

Blanco Urban Venue is one of the most beautiful modern and classic venues around the Bay Area. As a wedding photographer, it was such a joy photograph there with their beautiful white walls and the most beautiful afternoon light hitting the diner room. Also, the Golden hour and the street style photos are AMAZING there too. This locations has three floors and elevators for easy access if need as much as the stairs.
Also, the commodity of a parking lot space right on the side of the venue, just made everything stress free and super easy to access. And if you are hungry for a quick snack or even drinks before the wedding, around the venue have delicious food and super fun locations to hang out even after the event is over.

An absolutely amazing location for weddings!!!! And the Blanco team was absolutely wonderful.

Blanco Urban is an ideal wedding venue choice! As a photographer I was blown away by how well the venue photographed. Its white walls did wonders with the light throughout the day, from bright sun to golden hour. This venue is perfectly modern and chic for a luxury wedding. The staff was responsive and kind. Its great to be able to go down to the street and capture chic city photos as well!

One of the most unique wedding venues in San Jose! I photographed a large Hindu fusion wedding there recently and just loved the whole space. There are many different, dedicated levels that make the event feel really grand. The high ceilings and nice touches to aesthetic and detail are evident everywhere. This space can accommodate over 200 people! It’s in a great, safe little nook downtown and there are plenty of wonderful hotels nearby. For photographing, it was a treat to take some extra time for portraits on the top two levels. This is a worthy contender for a wedding venue in the Bay Area!

As a photographer I have had the pleasure to cover weddings in this venue. It is amazing. The white and wood combination it's great.
If you're looking to use Urban as you venue don't think it twice.
Right in the heart of San Pedro Square, you can fin parking on Santa clara st or by the many parking lots in the area.
Yes, you have to plan it well otherwise you won't find park easily.
Besides that. The venue speaks for itself and sands out.

We discovered Blanco during our search for a modern, minimal venue that could accomodate an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. It was very important to us that the outdoor area had some sort of shade solution since our wedding was in the summer, and Blanco’s rooftop was the perfect fit with the elegant roll out shades that could be retracted at night for rooftop festivities! We were also impressed with the care and detail the venue team put into upkeeping the space between events from what we saw the couple times we visited before our wedding day.

Coordination and organization for payments and documents up until the event day was an absolute breeze. This wasn’t something I was expecting to be so appreciative of until I was deep into the wedding planning process. Blanco uses an online portal where you can make all of your payments, access invoices and receipts, and view upcoming payment due dates, making it very easy to keep track of everything.

The Blanco team was also a pleasure to work with! We worked with Chrissy for the initial coordination, Renee for the preparation up until the event and then with both Renee and Hailey the day of. They were all so helpful and welcoming to make sure we had everything set and ready to go for the rehearsal and wedding day. Hailey even assisted me with my dress change as I was rushing between reception activities! They made sure we felt well taken care of and we couldn’t be more grateful!
