A Reflections at the Buttes Wedding

Reflections at the Buttes has a beautiful backdrop of the Pusch Ridge Mountains behind the ceremony location.  A lush tropical oasis with a dramatic desert background.  The first thing I noticed when I popped in to photograph Anthony and the guys before the wedding ceremony was the SHOES.  Now I hardly ever notice guys shoes – no one really does.  They are usually black and uncomfortable.  Not these!  Tan and white top-siders – boat shoes in the desert.  Not one groomsman was complaining about his shoes or his feet all day.  And they totally fit in with Michelle’s organic and rustic theme – with a little bit of Vineyard thrown in.  A rustic twig ring bearer pillow, bits of burlap style ribbon wrapped around the bouquets, muted shades of green and golds.  Michelle was one of the calmest brides ever…the only time I even saw a twinge of nervousness was just before she put the dress on.  And that disappeared as soon as she saw Anthony just a few minutes ever.  A beautiful couple, wonderful families, a perfect evening.
