…early morning in Sausalito

… a little downtown morning colour…

I absolutely LOVED this destination wedding with Jillian and Rich, it was a gorgeous setting with perfect weather in the historic Sausalito Women’s Club just over the bay from the Golden Gate Bridge. I chose just a few of their favorites to show you, but I will hopefully be placing quite a few others that are more candid on my website later this year.

I get giggly thinking about how they are so in love.  Jillian’s family lives here in Sausalito and she has always dreamed of a wedding here someday. It was perfect. The ceremony took place in a two story bungalow style cottage which was filled with family and friends surrounded by amethyst coloured hydrangeas and huge bouquets of white flowering blooms. I actually teared up as I heard their vows, the words were precious they promised to one another.  It was a privilege to be a part of their event, and this location instantly has become one of my favorites.

I wanted to show you every morsel of the day but here’s just a taste…….

the ambiance pours through the french doors of the “Artist’s Loft” of Casa Madrona in the village

……a few perfectly chosen words in their song……….

first moments  ( a peek before the ceremony… it’s more romantic than seeing each other for the first time with hundreds of guests staring at you!)

awesome view of the San Francisco Bay from the top of this hill

Rich’s oldest daughter Elizabeth was the gorgeous maid of honor…..a great looking family!

…just like you dreamed it Jillian…AHhhh!

Sausalito at twilight… a perfect ending to a beautiful day!
