The weather on Claudia and Steve's wedding day was quite dramatic. It rained the night before, and on our way to San Francisco, it was still pouring. But just when we arrived in the city, the sky cleared up with a nice blue sky, sunshine, and beautiful white clouds.

The time was a bit rushed, as always with every wedding, but the ceremony at City Hall was just perfect. After the ceremony, we walked around the city enjoying the fantastic weather on their perfect wedding day.
