“A Whimsical and Bright Take on a Classy Yacht Club Wedding”

Karly and Scott met at Trinity College in Connecticut when they were both awarded “Bantam of the week”. A spotlight award for the top athletes. The two fell for each other and started their journey in life moving across the country and finally landing in San Francisco post-grad. Their courageous move thousands of miles from home brought them closer to one another, leaning on their relationship growing stronger each day! Once Scott proposed, the wedding planning came full swing. They decided that the St Francis Yacht Club was just perfect as they often visit Chrissy Beach which is just adjacent to the property. They felt it was symbolic of their love story and the view of the Golden Gate Bridge from their reception would be a beautiful backdrop for their East Coast guests to enjoy. We wanted a fresh, young, modern take on a classy yacht club. We avoided the “banquet” style dinner and made it feel like a whimsical San Franciscan design with lots of color and individuality. We were inspired by the breathtaking sunset views that the venue faces and based our colors off of a bright sunset palette. Every aspect of the design was hand picked to complement one another. From the bright and bold signage, to the gradient napkin colors at each table. It brought a fresh approach to the space. The dancing portion of the reception was a big hit with Golden Bell, a live fusion band. The crowd of all ages danced the night away next to the beautiful San Francisco Bay.  

Favorite Things:

  1. Bright and fresh approach to a classy Yacht Club
