Michael and Lisa's wedding

The Saturday after Thanksgiving we headed to Austin for Zack's old friend Michael's wedding.  The wedding was held at a home on Lake Travis.  The views for the balcony were beautiful.

The wedding had a few differences because Lisa is from Japan.  Michael met here while living there a few years ago.  Her parents came to the wedding and it was there first time outside of Japan.  Michael and Lisa have to go back to Japan in March to have a traditional Japanese wedding.


Michael and Lisa looked out at the attendees instead of the judge through the ceremony.  I told Zack that I would have been terrified to look out at everyone during our wedding!


Lisa put that entire piece of cake in Michael's mouth!

Everyone had an origami crane with the dinner menu.

Here we are on the balcony over looking the lake.


The house the wedding was held at was unique.  It was massive and very artsy.  Below are some pictures of a few different things at the house.  


The front of the house.  The pool is straight through the open breezeway.  The lights hanging in the big window changed colors. 


The lights from the inside of the house.

 
These are chandeliers in the large living area on the second floor of the home.  You can see the light drops in the background.


This is a light fixture - yes, a light.  It was in the breakfast area.




The house had both a 4 car and 3 car garage with glass doors. The car on the left is a Ferrari Enzo and on the right is a Ford GTS.  There were only 400 Enzo's manufactured so it is an extremely expensive car.  According to Wikipedia it usually sells for a million dollars.


Lamborghini (not sure the model)


Not sure what type of cars these are.  I know the blue one is a Chevy based on the decal.

Needless to say, we felt very poor at this house.  It was nice but not what I would have done with a house on the lake.  I guess the old saying 'to each his own' is very fitting.

Overall the wedding was very nice and it was cool to see an extreme house.
