A little info on it:
10. Marriage Island
San Antonio's Riverwalk is renowned for picturesque colonial architecture, beautiful trees and lovely scenery. It's especially romantic in December, when the trees are decorated with over 100,000 twinkling lights. This island in the middle of the river is a favorite spot for weddings, and has been affectionately dubbed "Marriage Island." After your wedding, enjoy a boat ride down the river.

No problem. I'm glad I could help. :)

If that number isn't the right one, let me know. I'm from San Antonio, my family is still there, so I can get it from one of them. :)
