Playful Science-Filled Wedding at the Exploratorium

The Exploratorium is set right on Pier 15 in the Embarcadero, guaranteeing memorable waterfront photo ops like this one.

Another perk of getting hitched in the heart of SF? This sweet transportation to your ceremony.

This beautiful bride's bouquet is brimming with peach garden roses, classic pink roses, white lisianthus, bluebells, and eucalyptus.

The centerpiece of the industrial-chic East Gallery is that hundred-plus-year-old Douglas fir tree trunk. We can't help but think about the newlyweds' rich, long future together while admiring those twisting roots.

We're obsessed with the science-y touch of displaying these floral arrangements in glass test tube vases.

Not only are these soaring glass tubes a living science experiment (they measure the tides outside the museum!) but they also make for a a unique and stunning ceremony backdrop.

The Exploratorium's hands-on exhibits bring out this engineer couple's childlike wonder.

Did you know that shadows can be colorful? Marrying your best friend + learning new things = best wedding day ever.

This hockey-loving couple brought out their passion with a hockey stick guest book... and Richard Gere. 'Cause why not?

This sweet sweetheart table has sweeping views of the sunset over the bay (if these newlyweds could keep their eyes off each other).

The party returns to the East Gallery, which has plenty of space for more science fun, more drinks, and lots and lots of dancing.

Ice. Cream. Sandwiches. We're drooling.
