Encinal Yacht Club Wedding

We arrived at the Waterfront Hotel in Oakland and found the bride and her bridesmaids getting ready in the penthouse suite! Talk about an amazing spot to prep! Views of the water, floor to ceiling windows and enough room for your entire bridal party to spread out! Casey was laid back and nothing but smiles the entire day.

Casey and Gil had an adorable first look on the dock outside the hotel, and the festivities continued as the boys cracked a few beers and laughed it up for the cameras and Casey joined her bridesmaids for the short trip to the Encinal Yacht Club.

Gil arrived at the ceremony by boat and Casey walked down the aisle, arm in arm with her father.

The party continued well into the night with speeches by the maid of honor, best man, and one of Casey’s fellow teachers who served up wedding advice from Casey’s students! Casey’s college sorority serenaded heven er with a little song and dance! The dance floor was never empty, often overflowing. The night ended with a sparkler sendoff in Gil’s classic convertible. We wish these 2 nothing but the best! And PS, what a fun way to kickoff wedding season!
