A Wedding at Kunde and Atwood Ranch in Sonoma

Maitely & Matt married at the Dunfillan Ruins at Kunde Winery, with their reception nearby at the rustic Atwood Ranch. Maitely was a bride with theatrical flair. Her dress was an unusual color - pale lemon yellow chiffon. For something borrowed, she chose to delicately feature a beautiful antique cameo broach on the satin ribbon of her flowers. They walked (and danced) with their guests from the cocktail hour on the terrace to the barn, led by a jazz musician playing "When the Saints Come Marching In".

Location: Kunde Winery & Atwood Ranch
Catering: Sage Catering

Flood Mansion Wedding in San Francisco

Miki & Stan married at the Flood Mansion in San Francisco. She radiated calm elegance and it was clear how much he adored her. Miki's dog was a well behaved charmer and part of the day. (She told me when we did the engagement shoot that her dog understands Japanese. It was true if you asked him in Japanese if he wanted to go for a walk - he knew exactly what you meant!)

Sheldon of Melons Catering did the impeccable catering. Heron Freed Toor presided over the ceremony with inimitable grace. Neil Hunt designed the fresh, modern arrangements and the gorgeous lighting was done by Got Light?

Wedding at The Brazil Room in Tilden Park

Sulakshana & Niko's wedding combined a variety of cultural traditions, honoring their respective Indian and Scandinavian backgrounds. Many guests flew in from Europe and made really marvelous (sometimes irreverant) toasts. The reception included a wishing tree, instead of a guest book. The room was transformed by Michelle Barrio Nuevo Mazzini, who had it richly lit, with lush, deeply colored floral designs - gorgeous.

Catering was done beautifully by Melons and the florals by Spiral Hand. The couple was delighted with the way Savadelis Films captured the exuberant dancing.
