D+D are the sweetest duo. Their love story spans over many years, across several continents and now they get to celebrate being together, married!
Their gorgeous wedding happened on a beautiful late summer day, with wedding preparations at the historic Marine's Memorial Club & Hotel, full of champagne toasts and the gents mastering a perfect bow tie. We then all shuttled over to Treasure Island and the Winery SF, where D+D had their romantic first-look, under a huge tree, looking out over the new Bay Bridge. It's always blustery on Treasure Island, which added lots of laughs and wind-swept hair to the photographs with their huge bridal party.
We hope you enjoy these photos from their prep and wedding ceremony! More photographs of their fun wedding reception are coming soon, so stay tuned!
Congratulations Danielle + Daniel!

After a gorgeous wedding ceremony in the Shakespeare Garden in Golden Gate Park, Renae + Mason moved the party across town for their wedding reception at Dogpatch WineWorks. The evening was filled with sweet toasts, tasty tamales, many glasses of wine and some serious dance moves (Mason gets major props for throwing out a perfect sprinkler move to some classic 90's dance tunes!).
We are soooo happy for R+M and we wish them so much love and happiness in their marriage!

Caroline + Dana live in a gorgeous Eichler home in San Rafael, that they have thoughtfully remodeled and filled with a museum of collected treasures. It's seriously a home straight out of DWELL magazine! Since they have put so much love into their living space, they decided it was the best location to take their engagement photos, the ideal backdrop to their perfectly styled love story :) There were cuddles on the couch, an impromptu signature cocktail making session in their sunny kitchen, and time spent relaxing in their wonderful garden, under the shade of several fruit trees. It was an extremely fun afternoon, which ended with us all around their kitchen table, munching on homemade kale salad and talking excitedly about their wedding, which is in just a few weeks!
Congratulations C + D! You two are the best and we are thrilled that you are getting married!

In a romantic saga stretching through the years, taking place across the country, from the Midwest to DC, and ending here in the Bay, Renae + Mason's love story proves when two people are just meant for each other! Shakespeare might call this Providence, the Stars, or Fate. This segues us to the happy act where the couple gets married: guests made their way under the golden archway of the Shakespeare Garden in Golden Gate Park, and past rows of flowers, sitting under an expanse of green lawn speckled with gold, as the sun went down behind the mossy trees. The bride and groom stood before the gathering, speaking their vows with such tenderness and humor, that one of our lens cloths was quickly re-purposed as a hanky to dry these eyes. These two love birds could not have looked more thrilled to be married, and we for them. Taking each others' hands, they leaned in and sealed the proceedings with a splendid kiss.
We hope you enjoy this peak into their wedding preparations and ceremony. Check back soon for more photographs from their reception at the Dogpatch WineWorks in a few days :)
Congratulations R+M!!

Ariel + Sam
