The Advantages of a SF City Hall Elopement

You are recently engaged to be married and starting to plan the wedding. As you go through the process, you start to see the dollar signs adding up. Music, food, photography, video, the venue and so much more. The typical wedding in San Francisco can easily exceed $50,000. At the same time, you are also discussing the possible purchase of your first home together. So you see the problem here? Newlyweds have a tough enough time surviving financially in the SF Bay Area without also having to worry about the accumulated debt from their wedding expenses. Forget about buying a house for a while, because you have to pay off this wedding debt first.

Well, there is a solution. Elope to beautiful San Francisco city hall! Yes, for approximately $100 you can have your civil ceremony in this spectacular building and pay only an additional $600 for wedding photography. Walk to a nearby restaurant with some friends and you have your full wedding! You just saved almost $49,000! Not to mention the fact that you are getting married at one of the most beautiful indoor venues on the west coast and possibly the country.

Full Photographic Tour at SF City Hall

The photos above are some samples of the types of images we will provide you with if you book the City Hall Elopement Package. This package is complete with many of the features of our other packages, despite the low costs. You will still receive the full photographic treatment. The only real difference is that this package is specifically designed for couples with no guests. There will not be time to do all of the above types of city hall photos if you have guests with you. Some of our clients mention that they feel they could still fit in the same amount of photos even with their guests. While this may be true, we find that couples with guests understandably want to spend time talking with them and hugging, etc. Of course we encourage this and want you to have a happy wedding day, but all of this activity takes away from the shoot, so that is why we offer the City Hall PLUS package. That package provides an extra 30 minutes of coverage which allows plenty of time for family portraits and interaction with guests.
