We are so happy to be blogging Jillian and Zach’s stunning Soldiers and Sailors wedding! Jillian and Zach’s wedding day was an excellent combination of grand locations and details combined with the feeling of a truly intimate gathering of family and friends. We started the day off with Jillian at Soldiers and Sailors where she took care of her final preparations before meeting Zach for their First Look. Jillian and Zach looked amazing during what turned out to be a bit of a rainy and chilly afternoon. We used some of our favorite spots around Oakland to avoid the rain and even managed to grab some gorgeous Fall colors before heading back to Soldiers and Sailors for their ceremony and reception. Just entering the auditorium at Soldier’s and Sailor’s is a breathtaking experience, and Jillian and Zach’s ceremony was absolutely beautiful. After the ceremony, guests headed upstairs for a night of dinner and dancing. An extra special touch to the evening was the inclusion of Jillian’s brother, Andrew, as DJ for the evening, and the very heartfelt speeches given by Jillian and Zach’s family and friends. Andrew owns his own DJ business in Ohio and did a fabulous job providing the entertainment!

We’d like to send a huge thank you to Jillian, Zach, and each of their families for a letting us be part of this wonderful day!
