Across the Pond

Congratulations to Christi and Jay Sparrow!
Friday April 21, 2007

Many of Jay's family traveled "accross the pond" to be a part of this very special event. Jay's grandfather who was unable to attend gave a heartfelt pre-recorded message that brought tears to everyone's eyes. The entire day consisted of various accents from New York, England, a bit from Australia (Christi's sister Kate) and of course Texas. Page Barteau catered the event flawlessly and Red Berry Mansion provided the scenic location. Chris of Future Sounds did a fabulous job with a mix of British and American tunes. Prettiest detail was the paper umbrellas handed out to the Bridesmaids at the Reception. And the Cake made by, of course.....Cathy Young!

La Cantera Resort - Spring Wedding

Congratulations to Kathleen and Ike Shapiro who were married at La Cantera April 1st.
It has been almost a year since Winfield and I have photographed a wedding at La Cantera Resort (excluding the pavilion.) and I had forgotten how beautiful it is. Just as a resort, it is probably one of the top resorts in Texas if not the south central region of the United States. Vicky, event director at the Resort was extremely helpful in organizing the entire event. Not only did she assist in every detail she gathered key people into place and directed guest to the appropriate place they needed to be. The courtyard served as the backdrop for the Cocktail Hour for the close to 500 guests.
Question: How do you keep 500 guest entertained? Ans: With the Reunion Band! They were great! This was their 4th Shapiro Wedding.
