If it’s Saturday, it must be boda (wedding) day in Oaxaca. I caught this one as it was leaving Templo de San Matías Jalatlaco in the requisite post-ceremony procession that would stop traffic as it wended its way through the streets of the neighborhood.
While the wedding party may not have been as grand as the Saturday weddings at the over-the-top ornate Templo Santo Domingo de Guzmán, this one had all the festive elements of a boda in Oaxaca.

I love these frequent and festive occasions in Oaxaca!!
Me, too! They have been few and far between over the past 18 months.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
The bride and groom looked like they were having such a good time!
Wonderful!
It was the first wedding I’ve seen in my new neighborhood.
