Jose and Laura at the Austin Club

The couple was married at the beautiful St. Elizabeth's Catholic Church in Pflugerville. The mass and gathering of family and friends created an exceptional way to start their marriage. Following formal portraits at the church, we headed to Lady Bird Lake for a few pictures along the hike and bike trail. (Yes, there was some photo bombing going on) The colors are always lush and the temperature was perfect. We were excited to be able to photograph their reception at the historic Austin Club. The Millett Opera House, at 110 East Ninth Street, has been the home of The Austin Club since 1981. Built by city father Captain Charles F. Millett in 1878, the building was designed by leading architect Frederick E. Ruffini. When completed, the opera house was second in size and grandeur only to the Galveston Opera House. The building, place settings and up lighting created such an elegant atmosphere. The couple and their guests enjoyed a wonderful dinner,  terrific service by attentive staff, a lovely toast, a mariachi band, yummy cake and a bit of craziness in the live photo booth. The couple left for their much deserved European honeymoon!
