We’re excited to post highlights from the recent wedding of Elizabeth and Chris at the W Hotel in San Francisco. January is usually a quiet month for weddings in the Bay Area, and that made this couple’s celebration even more unique. Liz and Chris’ ceremony and the reception party were blessed with clear skies as we joined their family and friends on a day that took us from their family church in the South Bay to the W Hotel in the city. Check out the hottest selections from the day below!

The morning photo session included preparations as well as Liz’ portraits once she was completely ready:

Edgar did a magnificent job with Liz’ bouquet and we loved all the details:

Liz’ shoes were stunning and we enjoyed getting creative for shots of their rings:

St. Elizabeth Church in Milpitas hosted the union of Liz and Chris:

We made the best of the few moments available following the ceremony for portraits of Liz and Chris next to a classic American car:

Once we arrived to the W in downtown San Francisco we were wowed by the lighting and beautiful details in the reception room. Liz and Chris hosted a cocktail style reception complete with food stations, yummy drinks, and dancing into the night:

Our coverage of this W Hotel wedding wouldn’t be complete without a portrait session set inside as well as in the area surrounding the hotel:

Loved this capture during Liz and Chris’ dancing – they weren’t afraid to show their emotions as guests were cheering them on:

Do you ever see food that’s so elegant and unique it feels like a crime to eat it? This cake made us feel just this way, but alas, they weren’t going to let it go to waste :)
