Sara and Michael held their beautiful backyard wedding at Sara’s mom’s lovely house in South San Francisco. I can’t think of a more meaningful way for the couple to celebrate their memorable day than to be surrounded by all their close friends and family in the home where the bride grew up. You’ll have to see it to believe it — with the help of family and friends, they turned their humble abode into a romantic and stunning wedding venue! The colorful floral arrangements, the amazing assorted cakes(!!!), the handwritten wedding signs, and the romantic twinkle cafe lights all came together to make this wedding special and FULL of love! And beyond that, what made this wedding truly unique were the personal touches: the wedding rings, handcrafted by Michael’s father with a diamond passed down through the family; the surprise musical performance by the family; and even Michael’s great Darth Vader Star Wars tie! Browse their wedding photos below and join us in wishing them a happy lifetime together!
