Cathy and Stephen’s wedding doubled as a showcase of San Francisco – cable car buses took guests first to the stunning ceremony at the Palace of Fine Arts, and then on a your of the city before depositing them at the Westin St Francis (which has one of the most beautiful ballrooms around) for a [...]

Katie and Scott were married at one of my very favorite venues – the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers. It was a cold, rainy, winter day, so the warmth of the greenhouse for their intimate ceremony and extended cocktail hour was especially magical. The reception was simple but amazingly gorgeous, candle filled, and focused on [...]

Samantha and Mark’s wedding had so many of my favorite elements – a colored dress, beautiful ceremony, and restaurant reception. San Francisco City Hall is a venue that’s pretty impossible to beat, and the Beluga Room at Farallon restaurant was a great reception choice.  The couples shares a love of board games, and so instead [...]

Ellen and Darryl are one of those couples who can only be described as lovely. Their wedding was focused on family, great food, and lots and lots of fun, all wrapped in the great venue that is Tilden Park’s Brazil Room (one of my favorite venues.) Also – can we take a second to talk [...]
