Day long rain, wind up to 37 mph- That was the non-budging forecast for days leading up to Christine + Habib’s wedding. After religiously following the weather and hoping for at least slightly less than torrential winds, we were all resigned to an exclusively indoor affair. I especially felt for Christine, a Bay Area native who had just moved back from Chicago and wanted her wedding to epitomize the San Francisco cityscape. I really wouldn’t have even believed it if I had not personally witnessed it… However, somehow when we arrived to the Clift Hotel, the skies started to clear and the beautiful, wonderful sun made its appearance. It continued to shine brightly all day! Yay- couldn’t have happened to a lovelier couple! Needless to say, the rest of the day unfolded perfectly after that. It was such a gorgeous romantic event filled with beautiful light, warm company and plenty of gorgeous details. Here is Chapter I of their lovely, chic Clift Hotel Wedding. Congratulations, Christine + Habib! Much happiness to you two and little Norah in your new home. Thank you so much for having Michael and I be a part of your special day!
I loved the non-matching bridesmaid dresses. hmmmmm… there seems to be one super tiny bridesmaid there. ^.^
With some super tiny feet…
Love Love Love their style!
These girls really knew how to keep things light and fun, breaking out in an impromptu pop culture trivia game. It was a fun time for everyone, Michael and I were both cracking up at the banter.
What a smart way to get ready in style! I so love these floral robes from Plum Pretty Sugar.

I was so happy when I caught this one of Christine’s mom admiring her daughters dress.
Yes, Christine looked that amazing in her dress! I was so smitten with her flowers. The color and details are simply divine.
That’s not a bridesmaid after all! Mommy and Norah have sure a striking resemblance.
