San Francisco Wedding at The Historic Officers' Club

After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a lively cocktail hour where they mingled and indulged in a selection of appetizers and signature drinks. As part of the couple's Elite package, Sharlene and Patty chose an enticing array of appetizers:

• Ahi Tuna Wontons with Wasabi Cream
• Brie & Apple Phyllo Kisses
• Pork Belly BLT Crostinis
• Sweet & Tangy BBQ Meatballs
• Crispy Mini Vegetable Egg Rolls with Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce
• Chicken & Waffles with Bourbon Syrup

To add a fun and personalized touch to the celebration, the couple also selected two signature drinks: a refreshing Moscow mule and a classic old-fashioned. These carefully curated offerings provided guests with a delightful variety of flavors and ensured that there was something to satisfy every palate during the cocktail hour. While guests enjoyed the cocktail hour, Patty and Sharlene took the opportunity to capture more beautiful photos together around the Officers' Club.

After cocktail hour, guests made their way upstairs to Ortega Hall, where the reception took place. The couple chose green tablecloths to complement the surrounding greenery of the Presidio Forest, paired with elegant ivory napkins, silver chargers, and rustic wooden cross-back chairs. The beautiful centerpieces by Angella Floral Arts, set atop rustic wood slabs, featured ivory flowers, lush greenery, and flameless candles provided by the couple, creating a romantic ambiance. In a nod to their beloved city, Sharlene and Patty named their guest tables after iconic San Francisco parks, such as The Presidio, McLaren Park, and Crane Cove Park.

The newlyweds made a fun and spirited grand entrance, kicking off the reception with infectious energy. Guests were then treated to an incredible plated meal, featuring Braised Beef Short Rib and Oven Roasted Salmon with Tarragon Butter Sauce, accompanied by Herb Roasted Red Potatoes.

For dessert, Mazzetti's Bakery provided a lovely (and tasty!) cake with a variety of flavors, including white cake with mango, carrot cake with cream cheese, and chocolate with strawberries. As a late-night treat, Sharlene and Patty surprised their guests with savory pork and vegetable lumpia from Turo Cafe Grill, served with a sweet chili dipping sauce.

Instead of having a dedicated sweetheart table, Patty and Sharlene chose to sit with their family members and friends throughout the reception, fostering a warm and intimate atmosphere. They spent the evening chatting with their loved ones, catching up on old times, and making new memories on the dance floor. The newlyweds savored every moment of their special day, from the delicious food to the laughter and joy that filled the room.

As the celebration drew to a close, it was clear that Sharlene and Patty's wedding had been a true reflection of their love story. The couple's infectious happiness and the outpouring of support from their family and friends made for a day to remember.

Congratulations, Patty and Sharlene! It was an absolute pleasure to plan your amazing San Francisco wedding with you. We wish you a lifetime of love, laughter, and happiness together!
