Nick and Patrice are a team. Not only are they a couple, but they also work together as a TV show writing team. Nick is from LA and Patrice is from SF and they have a lot of love for California. So, when they got engaged, they knew they wanted to have a San Francisco wedding with a strong California feel and share that with their guests.
Their wedding day began at the St. Dominic’s Catholic Church (an iconic SF church and also the bride’s family church), with a traditional ceremony full of Filipino traditions. The reception took place at the Bently Reserve, another iconic SF location. To celebrate the outdoors, we brought the outside in with live trees, organic asymmetrical arrangements and garlands. Meaningful flowers (orchids and roses) payed homage to their families and loved ones who passed. Personal details included family photos, hand made calligraphy, tables named after studios in Los Angeles, local California cuisine, favorite desserts of ice cream sandwiches and mini donuts and a fun hip hop first dance which tied in perfectly with the groom’s custom hat and shoes. This is their wedding story…
“My husband and I cannot say enough good things about how amazing Jamie is! She truly made our wedding everything we dreamed of. In fact, I know everyone says you shouldn’t expect your wedding day to be perfect – but with Jamie, it actually was! As soon as I got engaged, I knew we had to hire Jamie – and that very first decision we made was by far the best decision we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. We never felt stressed or overwhelmed, she totally understood what we wanted and she worked hard to make sure our big day was exactly what WE wanted. She’s all about trying to understand what you want and what will make you happy, and making those things happen. She will be more than just your wedding planner, she will be the champion of making your wedding perfect for you.”
