Shelly and Matt – down by the river (6/9/2008)

My pal Sherry and I drove way down to New Braunfels (at one point I could have sworn I heard some dueling banjo’s) to shoot Shelly and Matt’s wedding (I was second shooting for Sherry of Sherry Hammonds Photography).  It was at the Hideout on the Horseshoe, which is an absolutely beautiful venue to get married at!  I was a little worried at first, because when we arrived, there were hundreds of drunken tubers floating by on the river… but as the afternoon gave way to dusk, the aforementioned hammered tubers disappeared and Shelly and Matt were wed in a riverside ceremony. In flip flops!  What an awesome, fun, laidback, cool couple!  And their wedding had a lot of cool personal touches (guests were greeted with a mojito-powered cocktail hour, the bride and groom made their getaway on a raft at the end of the night — just to name a few things). It’s always such an honor to be there on someone’s wedding day. Double bonus when the party rocks! Thanks for all the good times, you two. Hope you had a blast in Martha’s Vinyard.
