Hollywood films sure make San Francisco look like a beautiful city. After all, this is where wedding movies like The Wedding Planner and The Bachelor were filmed. But one important reality that is left out of these fantasy movies is that parking space is not always readily available when you need them. We never see the actors and actresses circling around looking for parking!

When Mr. French Toast and I decided to pay homage to the foggy city by naming our table numbers after iconic streets in San Francisco, we also had to plan on the routes in order to maximize our chances of finding parking. Who knew we had to have a plan for our table plans?

Just when we thought we had the parking situation figured out, we also happened to schedule the photo shoot on quite possibly the coldest day in San Francisco—a mere 40ish degrees Fahrenheit. Mr. French Toast and I, decked out in our “city chic” wear, braved the cold and put on our best smiley faces. Our photographer and good friend Di took it like a champ despite the tears and snot dripping down her face from the chill.

We definitely did not have assistants bringing us hot coffee and a blanket in between takes.

Our plans are to display each photo at the corresponding table and create a table name sign that mimics the look of a real street sign.
