Celebrating Tradition and Community: OneAway Studios at the Texas Cavaliers River Parade
Hello, OneAway family! Last Monday was a day to remember as OneAway Studios had the distinct honor of participating in the first full week of Fiesta at the Weston Centre, culminating in the spectacular Texas Cavaliers River Parade. This event is more than just a parade; it's a living testament to the vibrant traditions and community spirit that make San Antonio so special.
🚣♂️ A Storied Tradition on the River Walk
The Texas Cavaliers River Parade isn't just any parade; it's a cherished San Antonio tradition dating back to 1941, coinciding with the completion of the iconic River Walk. Inspired by a “floating garden” in Mexico City, this parade transforms the River Walk into a river of lights, colors, and festivities, drawing a crowd that far exceeds the available seating.
Imagine this: 17,000 chairs set up along the river, a special allocation for children and veterans, and an estimated total attendance nearing 250,000! This includes enthusiastic onlookers from riverside restaurants and bridges, all coming together in a grand celebration.
🎉 Fiesta at the Weston Centre
The Weston Centre, at the heart of these celebrations, outdid itself by providing guests with complimentary Fiesta-themed food and refreshments. Ensuring that everyone was fully immersed in the festive spirit, they set the perfect stage for an unforgettable evening.
🎵 DJ Fiesta Party Set by OneAway Studios
Our very own DJ Melissa Briseno kicked off the Weston Centre Fiesta party night with a four-hour DJ Fiesta Party set. Positioned on the riverwalk patio at the Weston Centre, Melissa's dynamic energy and fantastic music choices were the soul of the Fiesta. She kept the spirit high and the vibe alive, making it a night to remember for everyone in attendance.
📸 Capturing Memories with a Splash of Color
No OneAway Studios event is complete without a chance to capture those special moments. Our Photo Booth, standing at an impressive 10 feet tall with a stunning silver backdrop and adorned with large colorful paper flowers by The Inspiration Rainbow decoration company, was a hit! It provided a vibrant and fun way for attendees to remember the night.
🎥 Bringing the Event to Life
To capture the essence of the Weston Centre event, our team was out in full force, engaging in Event Photography and Videography. Every smile, every dance move, and the collective joy of the community were captured, preserving the essence of this fantastic gathering.
🌟 A Night to Remember
Reflecting on this amazing experience, it's moments like these that remind us why we do what we do. The sense of community, the shared joy, and the celebration of tradition – it all comes together to create something truly magical. Being part of Fiesta, not just as spectators but as active participants, was an honor and a delight.
We're already looking forward to next year's festivities, ready to bring even more energy, creativity, and passion to this wonderful tradition. Thank you, San Antonio, for welcoming us with open arms and vibrant hearts. Until the next Fiesta, keep the spirit alive!
