Beauty in Oaxaca












Friday night there was a wedding party outside the Santo Domingo Cathedral getting photographed by a professional--and every tourist nearby. The dresses were gorgeous purple with iridesence. The color was so striking in the lighting and against the golden cathedral. And there were six little kids in the wedding party. I guess they didn´t want to leave any one out. They provided the aawww moment.











Saturday once again I was sitting at Santo Domingo when a quinceaƱera arrived with her escorts. She had on the ruffliest black dress with a long train and a black bouquet. The escorts were dressed as if they were in a marching band. I have never seen the boys dressed in anything other than suits or tuxedoes. These teenagers were having a great time. I bet that was a great party.











Just a block away a bride was arriving for her wedding at another cathedral. She was simply gorgeous and radiant, the smile never left her face. Her attendants were wearing orange.
