for the wedding of
Half Past Twelve in the Afternoon
San Francisco, California
The 15th Floor of the Merchant's Exchange Building
San Francisco, California
Soft focus vows, downtown chapel, silk slip, tiny pearls. Champagne coupe, handwritten note, roses in the sink. Black suit, ivory dress, flash photo, afterparty. Place card, cold martini, hotel key, red lipstick. Ceremony blur, reception glow, married at midnight.
We'd love for our guests to celebrate in black tie — tuxedos for men and gowns for women — though formal attire in refined fabrics like velvet, silk, or wool is welcome too.
BLACK TIE OPTIONAL
In celebration of the new year, we invite our most fashion-forward guests to take formalwear somewhere more personal. For us, style has always been more than clothing — it is found in the music we love, the art we are drawn to, and the way we each move through the world.
One of the first things we recognized in each other was a shared appreciation for personal expression. If you feel inclined, we would love for you to lean into that spirit with us: dramatic silhouettes, vintage glamour, unexpected tailoring, rich textures, avant-garde & surrealist details, and pieces that feel unmistakably your own.
This is not a call to compete, but to celebrate style as self-expression, IF you so desire!

Music has always been part of us — what we play in the car, at home, over dinner, and everywhere in between. We put together a playlist of songs we love, along with a few favorites chosen to set the mood for the day. We hope you enjoy!
