City Hall Building Tour

San Francisco City Hall is a historic and magnificent building on its own. The building's remarkable presence offers the opportunity for gorgeous photos both inside and out. Taking a tour of the building before your wedding day gives you a chance to look around, absorb the culture, and learn the history of where you will have your wedding. We went on one of these tours recently and it was informative, fun, and very interesting. You can find more information about these tours by clicking this link San Francisco City Hall tours.
