From Nudrat Owens PhotographyLindsey and Adam’s summer wedding in San Francisco was done in Sex and the City Style.The ceremony was held at the SF City Hall. The couple reserved the Mayor’s Balcony for the event. The amazing view of the Balcony from across the hall was simply stunning. Lindsey and Adam shared some intimate moments while waiting in line for their marriage certificate near the city Clerk’s office and then headed to the balcony for the ceremony where their close friends and family awaited. They took the vows in front of their most loved ones. Champaign and cupcakes were the perfect way to cheer to a toast.

In contrast to traditional white gown, Lindsey chose a cream-beige-knee-length dress for her wedding. The dress was from Bloomingdales NY, NY. Loved the blue shoes on her. Adam matched his tie and socks with Lindsey’s shoes.

The reception was held at the Modernism Gallery in Foreign Cinema on Mission, SF. What a cool venue for a cozy reception! And the food was to die for! Lindsey’s bouquet was made of her Grandmother’s favorite flower “Pink Ice” Protea. The heirloom necklace from her Grandmother was passed on to Lindsey that she crowned her bouquet with. Clearly her grandmother was very near and dear to her heart. Gorgeous floral design by Natalie Bowen Designs were the jewels on every table at the reception hall. Adam, the groom, made all the table signs himself. He played with metal and a solder gun to create the “A-heart-L” sign for the head table too. Lindsey and her mom made Apricot Jam as favors for all guests. They had a very personal and beautiful story tied to that as well.

Back to back movies were played all night at the Modernism gallery. “Food and Film” was definitely the vibe going throughout the night. The couple share Italian heritage; “Mangia”, meaning “eat”, on the menu was totally appropriate.



This wedding was so elegantly styled. The couple’s simple yet sophisticated ideas were a perfect representation of their personalities. We don’t get to photograph such weddings everyday. It was totally “Sex and the City” of San Francisco.
