First stop, Balboa Park.  Love coming here on Monday…there was no one around!

And then a bit later, headed to Sunset Cliffs for a total trashing of the dress!  (ok not really, water doesn’t actually trash it!)

Katie and I met on a local chat board because we were both getting married around the same time.  Its been so fun getting to know her over the last year and share our experiences!

Shout out to Megan Tyson (916-267-4868) for the awesome job on Katie’s makeup!
