Maddison + Zak
San Francisco City Hall | San Francisco, CA
ABOUT THE WEDDING
A timeless celebration with sweeping views and heartfelt moments in the heart of the city.
Maddison and Zak, both from Orange County, chose to trade the traditional for the timeless. They opted for an intimate San Francisco wedding that felt deeply personal and effortlessly elegant. With just 25 of their closest family and friends, they said "I do" inside the stunning San Francisco City Hall, a historic and architectural masterpiece that brought a sense of grandeur to their intentionally small celebration.
The ceremony unfolded beneath the soaring rotunda, where soft light poured through the glass dome and reflected off the building’s intricate marble and gold details. The stillness of the hall, with its sweeping staircases and dramatic symmetry, made their vows feel sacred. It was as if the city itself paused to witness this moment.
Following the ceremony, the group made their way to EPIC Steak, a warm and stylish waterfront venue with postcard views of the Bay Bridge. As the sun set and the bridge lights began to twinkle, guests sipped cocktails and shared toasts that felt as personal as the couple’s vows. The atmosphere was cozy, joyful, and filled with the kind of conversation only possible in a setting this intimate.
Every detail of Maddison and Zak’s wedding day reflected their love for simplicity, connection, and beauty. San Francisco provided the perfect backdrop.
