We’re heart eyes over this fetching San Francisco wedding in Golden Gate Park

The morning of Jake and Mandi’s San Francisco wedding, everyone got ready at the Harbor Court Hotel, a waterfront hotel in the Embarcadero area of San Francisco. After their first look, the wedding party hopped on a classic San Francisco trolley to go to their ceremony in Golden Gate Park.
