We then took the time to walk thru the Alamo.
We picked the perfect day to do it they were doing an reenactment of the fall of Alamo. We saw a few camping sites & some did have storytellers giving details about life during that time. We spent some time in the gift shop – so many things to look at. We bought 2 sets of Indian Arrowheads, a postcard (of San Antonio), a Christmas star ornament (metal design), since I collect miniatures and keychains one of each. Also what does every cookbook collector need? Another cookbook – TexMex recipes!!! Cutest little thing the recipes look good. 
There were some ladies (from the Daughters of the American Revolution) were giving different demonstrations: quilt making ,
lace making, outside there was a trader, 
a woman making yarn and then another lady with a wonderful German accent was demonstrating finger knitting. She wrapped the yarn around her fingers to create her project.After a short rest and clean up break it was time for the wedding. They had chosen a small Non denomination church in the arts village La Villarta.
The church is a quaint & small (seats maybe 100 people) with only one stained glass window. 
The Priest was a short, jolly, Hispanic descent man with a wonderful sense of humor. After the ceremony pictures were taken in the church, in front of the church and on a bridge overlooking the RIVERWALK. The reception was held at a Mexican restaurant – very nice set up the catering menu offered you the appetizer, 3 choices of entree and the dessert Coconut Flan. I got the Fajita entree and Greg got the Chicken entrée – both were very good
