Bill & Rene were married on December 19th, 2009 at St. Jude’s, with the reception following at the historic Boulder Dam Hotel.  I swore I had remembered seeing the hotel before today, and sure enough we when got there it was nestled right beftween 2 of D & I’s favorite Boulder City locations…. the Boulder Dam Brewery and Milo’s Cellars.  Boulder City is a perfect location for a quaint & cozy holiday celebration.  Congrats!

After friends and family had a nice solid 8 hours to thaw out in various spas along the Las Vegas Strip, they gathered at Dos Caminos at the Palazzo Hotel & Casino.  It’s no secret they have the best guacamole in town (besides D’s), and now I have a new #1 for the best churro ever. Congrats to all of the race runners!  I hope everyone had a great time in Las Vegas!  If you missed the email list and would like to be added just send an email to ron@ronmphoto.com

Cormac & Megan Reception

Cormac & Megan exchanged vows with several dozen other couples who wed & renewed vows during the annual Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon.  Also in attendance were the running Elvi (yep that’s a word), who were about 30 deep.  This particular marathon often brings out a few special guests…. Elvis, Captain America, the Banana Man, anything goes! I even saw a Caveman, yeah, they are among us!!   Well, at least until the end of the race he is… someone slapped a sign on his back that said it was so easy a Caveman could do it =(

All of the running couples gathered about 7:30 am on this blistering cold Vegas morning in front of the Paris Hotel & Casino for a short ceremony.  With the abundance of tuxedo t-shirts I was worried about spotting my couple, until finally I found the flower in the hair I was looking for just in time for a few nice close-ups.  As I headed out to the coziness of my heated seats I spotted 2 Elvi at the bar and curiousity got the best of me.  Unfortunately their legs just weren’t gonna hold out for the 13 miles, so they moved on to Plan B (or Plan A if you’re like me in the mornings)…. Bloody Marys!
