Brendan & Bailey
Things To Do in the Bay
Golden Gate Park
Golden Gate Park has tons of fun things to do for both adults and kids! You can rent motorized scooters, bikes, or rollerblades and explore the 1000 acre park, or go venture to the California Academy of Sciences (Bailey's favorite as a kid). If you're a fan of flowers, you could check out the Japanese Tea Garden, Conservatory of Flowers, or one of the other several gardens located in Golden Gate Park. Golden Gate Park also is home to a few different museums, the de Young Museum and Legion of Honor (another favorite of Bailey's) being some of the most popular.
Napa Valley
A little under an hour drive from San Francisco, Napa Valley has quite the reputation for being "wine country," besides offering wine, there are tons of delicious restaurants, shopping, and sightseeing. Bailey practically grew up in Napa Valley spending lots of time there with family and friends so it is one place she holds near and dear to her heart. While they were dating, Brendan and Bailey ventured out to Napa a lot and still try to make time to when in California.
Chinatown
San Francisco Chinatown is the largest Chinatown outside of Asia as well as the oldest Chinatown in North America. It is one of the top tourist attractions in San Francisco. Bailey spent a lot of time in Chinatown as a child and it is one of her favorite spots in the city for yummy food! Close walking distance to Ghirardelli Square and North Beach (where the wedding festivities will take place). You can get authentic dim sum or pick up some pork buns, there's lots to see and eat!
Original Joe's
Brendan and Bailey's favorite restaurant in San Francisco! They've gone here a bunch with friends and family and absolutely love the atmosphere. Bailey's favorite restaurant in the city since she was a kid, frequently visiting as a child, little did she know she'd marry her future husband someday right across the street at her favorite church.
Golden Gate Bridge Vista Point
Possibly one of the most highly visited spots in the city, perfect place to get a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge!
Foreign Cinema
One of the bride's favorite restaurants in the city! You can enjoy a movie while eating your dinner surrounded by twinkle lights on a very picturesque outside patio. Movie showings change every month, so be sure to check their website prior to going!
