Old Mission San Juan Bautista - February 9, 2002
Our wedding was celebrated at the Old Mission San Juan Bautista in San Juan Bautista, California. Located inland between San Jose and Monterey (south of Gilroy - the garlic capital of the world).

First a Little History:
Mission San Juan Bautista was dedicated on June 24, 1797 and was the 15th mission built by the Spaniards along el Camino Real of California. The mission has been well restored and is still an active Catholic parish.
For more information about the mission check our links page.
We chose the mission for its beauty, traditional style, and because it is still an operational Catholic church.
Here are some pictures of the Old Mission before we show you our actual Wedding Photos.
Ramona chose a traditional white lace and satin wedding dress with Spanish style lace mantilla. Bob dressed in a traditional blue tunic with a wide red sash belt.
We entered the Mission and started up the aisle.
Guests watched as our wedding ceremony began. Father Gary Holtey (of Saint Charles Borromeo Church in Point Loma, California) presided with Joey Michaels as maid of honor and Pace Snyder as best man.
Rings are exchanged and a figure-eight of flowers is placed around us to represent the unity of two in marriage.
With a blessing from Fr. Gary Holtey he joins us and introduces for the first time Mr. and Mrs. Snyder.
We are one!
