Julia + Mihir | St. Francis Winery | Wine Country Wedding

I had the pleasure of working with Julia and Mihir on two events last September. They hosted a pre-wedding cocktail party at One Kearny Club in San Francisco the night before their wedding, which took place at beautiful St. Francis Winery. I worked closely with the couple to recommend and book their vendors after they had chosen their two venues. After months of planning, I was excited to see everything come together for them and both events were such a success. Thank you to the amazing vendor teams that helped pull off such wonderful events. It was fun planning the wedding and seeing Julia and Mihir enjoying their special day. Congratulations to this lovely couple!

Before the ceremony took place on the lawn, there was a bride's processional and groom's processional at the the front of the winery where the two sides came together and joined in on some dancing, accompanied by Indian musicians. After this processional, guests took their seats and the couple exchanged their vows in this gorgeous setting above. 















Julia and Mihir love food so a lot of the planning was focused on that. These escort cards opened up and listed the menu the couple selected and was catered by Elaine Bell. There were a bunch of stations of different kinds of food that were such a hit! There was even a nitrogen ice cream station after dinner along with many other desserts.











The couple hand-bottled wine for guests to take at the end of the night!

Nichole + Will | Golden Gate Club | San Francisco Wedding

I loved Nichole and Will's wedding. Nichole and Will are such kind and fun loving people and I was so honored to be a part of their special day. Nichole found me after coming across a styled shoot I worked on that was featured on Green Wedding Shoes. After our initial consultation and realizing her sweet and easy going demeanor, I was so excited when she hired me to be her wedding coordinator. There were so many special moments at Nichole and Will's wedding. From their vows (which made me tear up!) to the sweet surprises they had for each other throughout the day, it was truly so special to witness their love, not only for each other, but for everyone around them. Their day was full with so much emotion and so much fun, all captured perfectly by their amazing photographer, A Fist Full of Bolts. Be sure and check out more photos from their photographer's blog. This wedding warmed my heart and made me fall in love with my job all over again. Congratulations to an amazing couple, Nichole and Will! xoxo
