About Me: I am a born and bred Philadelphian that presently resides one of the greatest cities in the world, San Francisco. My fiancé is the most amazing man I have ever met and I can’t believe he picked me to spend the rest of his life with. I lovingly refer to him as Sprouts. More on him later though – let’s get to the good stuff (sorry babe!).
Wedding Style: After an almost three month long venue search, we have decided to get married in San Francisco at the gorgeous City Club. It’s quite a departure from our original thoughts on a venue of rustic and outdoor, but it could not be more perfect for us! With amazing Art Deco architecture, beautiful gold-leafed ceilings and a mural that will knock your socks off, the venue has basically dictated the look and feel of our classic San Francisco wedding. We can’t wait to have our sophisticated and elegant wedding in the City by the Bay!

Our wedding date is October 2012 – so we have more than 11 months to go! It sounds like a lifetime to me, but I know it will go quicker than I could ever expect. So now that you know where I am going to get married, you basically know everything that I have done for our wedding. Yep – I’ve got a long way to go! So for all you brides a bit farther in the planning process, feel free to share your tips on what to do next – I’m all ears!

Congratulations Brianne! The venue is amazing, it is one of the ones I checked out also while on the hunt for a SF wedding venue. Tom Vo Photography is amazingly talented and I would highly recommend him. He is based out of San Jose but travels to SF without a travel fee. Good luck with planning!
