Wedding at The Reata - Oakdale, CA

Alan and Tracy where married in September at the Reata (use to be a brewery) in Oakdale.

Some of you might ask where is Oakdale anyway?! Well, Oakdale is close to my home town of Modesto. It was fun shooting at a location that recalled memories of hanging out sipping beers in years past.

Reata is such a great location for a wedding. It has ideal spots for pictures including a yellow wall, a brick building, a picture perfect little fence, and a bit of greenery. A stone water wall fountain made for a nice backdrop for the ceremony. The reception area has awesome high ceilings, brick walls and pleasant ambient light.

After the ceremony we had ample time to finish up some pictures before the reception started. Having all the proceedings at one location makes the day flow so effortlessly!

The catering was done in house and was absolutely yummy. The chicken in mushroom sauce and mash potatoes were scrumptious!

Thanks to Lydia for assisting/2nd shooting.
