Jeff was kind enough to send me some photos to share from Justin and Adellena's wedding in San Francisco. I still can't get over how great the weather was that day in the city.

Teasers from Chelsea & Eric's Wedding by Elley Ho Photography

Two teasers Elley Ho Photography shared with me from Chelsea and Eric's wedding. Can't wait to see the rest!

A Butterfly Wedding - Chelsea & Eric

Eric and Chelsea both went to my high school, but I've known Chelsea longer...since Freshman year! They had been dating pretty much since the end of high school, so it was really exciting when I found out they were engaged and even more exciting when she asked me to help her with her special day. Knowing Chels and her personality, I knew she would know exactly what she wanted for her wedding and would be on top of her game. The ceremony took place at the Mission Church at Santa Clara University. The guests then headed to Hotel Valencia at Santana Row for the reception. Chelsea was always into purple and butterflies in high school and so I wasn't surprise to find those features in her wedding theme. The guests certainly had fun playing dress up for the photobooth. A few of my high school girlfriends whom I rarely get to see were also at the wedding so we got to act silly in the booth together. It was a fun night!

San Francisco Wedding - Justin and Adellena

Justin and Adellena are from Sacramento, but chose to have their wedding in San Francisco because of their love for the city. The ceremony took place at Inspiration Point inside the Presidio. Nothing could be better than the view of the SF Bay on a sunny day as the backdrop. Afterward, the guests were given a special ride on a SF cable car down to the reception at Fort Mason. They admired the sunset view and Alcatraz during cocktail hour and then proceeded to enjoy a delicious buffet catered by Asqew Grill and a long night of dancing. The best part of the day was witnessing the groom's reaction to his groom's cake, which was a surprise from the bride. Apparently Justin is a huge Mario Bros. fan. Woohoo! Go Nintendo!

Nilima & Gregg's Wedding - A Mix of Culture

Nilima and Gregg certainly had a busy wedding day entertaining their guests with two ceremonies, two cocktail hours, and a reception...which everyone loved! The Amber Room at Casa Real was transformed into a beautiful setting for the Hindu ceremony. I'm not even sure how the bride was able to move with all the jewelry on her! It's always fun when couples from different backgrounds find a way to exhibit both of their cultures on their wedding day. Afterward, the guests got to enjoy a cocktail hour filled with Indian treats before moving on to the Western Ceremony outside in the Sun Garden. The guests enjoyed the rest of the night with dinner and dancing inside the Grand Salon, which was decorated beautifully by Nicole Ha. I had a blast working with such a wonderful team.
