If you are legal residents of the United States and 21 years or older, then you are eligible to win a platinum-style, high-end wedding! Valued at $100,000.00, the lucky couple will get to experience the wedding of their dreams. Over 40 of the Bay Area’s most sought-after wedding professionals have gathered forces create a lavish wedding at Hotel Vitale, one of San Francisco’s most luxurious hotels, for the winning couple along with 75 of their friends and family.

Afterwards, the winners will head to Milliken Creek Inn in Napa, CA for a three-night honeymoon to include dinner on board the Napa Valley Wine Train, spa treatments and a private lunch and winery tour at Robert Mondavi Winery.

Liz Guthrie, the contest producer, and owner of San Jose Wedding Consultants, LLC says, “Weddings are expensive, and many people cannot afford a lavish wedding, especially given the state of the economy. We wanted to offer something back to the community that has been so good to us over the years, and the 2010 San Francisco Dream Wedding seemed like the perfect opportunity.”

The contest closes Nov 25th, 2009. The top five finalists will be announced on December 26th. The winner will be announced on Valentine’s Day, 2010. The wedding is set for May 14, 2010.
