2020 has been such a strange year! COVID-19 is something that none of us had on our radar. Jane and Eugene were set to have a beautiful wedding last May at the Legion of Honor, which was postponed to August after the shelter-in mandate in March. Since they were unable to have the wedding with […]
As a wedding planner, it has been a heartbreaking time working with couples who have had to postpone or cancel their wedding altogether.

Kate and Jeff were to be married last Friday at the Top of the Mark at the Intercontinental Mark Hopkins Hotel. It was to be an intimate celebration with family and close friends complete with a motorized cable car champagne tour of the city between the ceremony and the dinner reception.

It was such a pleasure to work with Jenna and Matt! They should be everyone’s example of how to approach the wedding planning process. I never felt Jenna stress or lose her composure over the details. It was a super enjoyable day, and the guests were the recipients of a wonderful party! I do think […]
It was Black Friday… the day after Thanksgiving. The first big, cold storm of the Fall had come in the day before Thanksgiving. It was Lan and Kenny’s dream to have their wedding ceremony outside. But I was concerned that this would be possible. The florist had set everything up. The DJ was prepared. I […]
I have done many, many weddings at the Fairmont San Francisco over the years, but this was my first in the Penthouse Suite. It is a very special place!
