Our Wedding - June 2007

We were married June 2nd, 2007 in the Salt Lake Temple. We were both very overwhelmed but very happy and so glad that we were able to be sealed to each other for eternity. It was really hot when we were walking around the temple grounds taking pictures so we were glad when we called it quits to head back to the house for two seconds to catch some lunch and start prepping for the reception.




The day went very quickly and was a little hectic but went smoother than we ever could have asked for. Our families played a huge roll in getting everything taken care of for the reception and in keeping both Jonathan and I sane and focused on the fact that this was our day to enjoy.





Our reception was held in Kaysville, Utah at the home of one of our neighbors. It was really hot during the afternoon and early evening but once it hit around 7 pm the weather was perfect and we all had a great time dancing and socializing with friends and family. We couldn't have asked for a better night for our reception.




It was all a total blur as we rushed from thing to thing that day and by the time we were done that night we were glad to have it all over with! And we got away without having our car decorated (except for the toothpaste...thanks Katie!).


Bridal Photos - April 2007

In April of 2007 I got my bridal photo's taken at Thanksgiving Point in Alpine, Utah. We did them in April because the Tulipfest was going on during that time and we were hoping to be able to get the beautiful flowers in the pictures. The problem was that it only got up to about 45 degrees that day and it was windy, so not only was I freezing my behind off but I also had to keep my dress from blowing over my head or into the bushes whenever I was standing near a flower bed!






Even though it was really cold (and by the end of the shoot I could barely move my face because it was so numb) I still had a lot of fun and the pictures turned out great. :) Also, thanks to my maid of honor, Michelle Jensen, for trecking around the grounds with me that day. Love ya!!!


Our Engagement - October 2006





We got engaged on October 28th of 2006. It was one of the most amazing nights of my life! After he took me to the Melting Pot for dinner (which was sooo yummy), we went back to his apartment...and when we walked in there were hundreds of white candles lit all over the place and red rose petals covering the floor. It was perfect! :)


Although we got engaged on the 28th we actually took our announcement pictures before that so we could get some of the fall leaves in them, so I didn't even have my wedding ring in these pictures! Here are a few of our pictures from the shoot we did that day down in Alpine Canyon ( the main pic on our blog is also from this photo shoot).
