Get ready for some San Francisco elopement inspiration!
One of the best parts about choosing to elope, besides saving lots of stress and money and keeping the focus on your ceremony, is choosing a gorgeous location. If you’re eloping in San Francisco, you’re lucky because there’s really no shortage of beautiful spots. Whether you want the mountains, the beach, the woods or even stunning City Hall as your background, you’ll find it in San Francisco.
Having married couples all along the west coast of North America, San Francisco has a special place in our hearts. It’s a beautiful city to get married in and a favourite for many of our wedding officiants.
Many couples travel to San Francisco each year to tie the knot. With so many beautiful backgrounds to choose from, it’s hard to go wrong with a San Francisco elopement. We’re big fans of parks in the middle of urban cities, and so absolutely love Golden Gate Park, Mission Dolores Park and Buena Vista Park. City Hall is another amazing option in San Francisco. The architecture of the City Hall building, both inside and out, will blow you away. And don’t forget the many beaches that make beautiful spots to elope in California!
Make the most of your San Francisco elopement with a photo shoot around the city. Nothing is more iconically San Francisco than a portrait of the newlyweds in front of the Golden Gate Bridge, aboard a trolley, posing with the sea lions on the pier, or walking down Lombard Street (the windiest street in the world). Celebrate your elopement with any number of delicious restaurants in San Francisco.
And for your honeymoon? You’re spoilt for choice! Head north to enjoy wine country in Napa and Sonoma, take a quick ferry over to Sausalito, go hiking in Yosemite National Park, go skiing in Tahoe, be a big kid at Disneyland or keep driving south for a honeymoon in Mexico.
