When the bride and groom and the entire bridal party are all Harvard graduates it can be a little intimidating. But Alyssa and Brian and their friends couldn’t have been more fun and easy-going. The Catholic wedding ceremony was held at Our Lady of the Lake University Sacred Heart Chapel, the bride’s mother’s alma mater. Alyssa wanted to include lots of San Antonio flair to her reception. Large custom made metallic piñatas, custom cut papel picados, freshly baked Mexican wedding cookies, festive Mariachi band, and lots of sombreros and maracas for the guests definitely accomplished Alyssa’s goal. Their friends and family laughed and danced until the moment we sent them off along the San Antonio Riverwalk.
