Wow! How do you describe a wedding spanning 12+ hours with hundreds of wedding guests and enough celebration to possibly fill up a whole week? That’s exactly what happened for Shadieh and George’s big day and we were stoked to be there to capture it.

The ceremony took place at the gorgeous Mission Dolores in San Francisco and their grand reception was at the Hyatt Regency in Burlingame. The reception was filled with so many performances and so much dancing through the night that it felt like we were at a music concert. Some favorites from their day:

There was much celebrating even before the ceremony at Mission Dolores:

It was AWESOME to see our past clients Angelica and Yuriy! Shadieh was Angelica’s maid-of-honor and this time Angelica was the matron of honor:
