Location - Le San Michele
The ceremony and reception will be at Le San Michele in Buda. I love the old world charm of the house, and the beautifully landscaped grounds. The location was a top priority for me, as I know a great location makes it so much easier to get truly stunning photos. San Michele is sooo beautiful, and it was budget friendly! A lot of the other places we looked at would have been half or even all of our meager budget. The owner, Virginia, has also collected lots of things we can use to decorate, and all the plates, silverware, etc that all fit within the color palate and overall feel of the place. I think San Michele may be one of the best kept secrets of all the wedding venues around Austin!

Bridal Portrait -or- Day After Portraits
(Not sure which one I'll do, but I'm waiting until after the wedding either way... it'll be cooler weather, I won't worry about getting the dress dirty, and I don't care about having a print displayed at the wedding!)
