5. 14. 13

Well, I can't think of a better 'official' first post, than to post about the BEST day ever...

O U R  W E D D I N G

May 14, 2013, was the greatest day of our lives. I still can't believe that I am married to my best friend and even better, sealed for time and all eternity to him! We had such a lovely day with perfect weather, fabulous friends & family, and delicious food! (I have a feeling that this post is going to be a picture OVERLOAD... because it's so hard to pick favorites!)

Our day started off at the Bountiful, Utah Temple where we were sealed for time and all eternity. That was by far, the most amazing experience I have ever had.

And then of course, we had lots and lots of pictures on the temple steps. We had so many people come to support us. We are so grateful to everyone that came to be with us. (It was about 90 degrees outside that day and no one complained about being in the hot sun to take photos! I felt so bad, especially for all of the guys in their black suits!)But we got some great pictures, here are a few of my favorites:

Annnd some pics of the fam, complete with toothless Sam and picture frame Drew!

Then we went up to Snowbasin for a delicious luncheon. But we don't have any pictures of that. . . So here a few of my favorites of Alex and I at the temple..

And then it was time for the party to begin! Our reception was also held up at Snowbasin Resort. It was such a fun night full of dancing, eating, laughing, and catching up with good friends! 

And of course some of our great friends at our reception, Ryan & Shayle and Chris & Ashley!

Here's just a few more of our wedding party. They were awesome! They helped us set up everything for the luncheon and the reception. We have the best friends in the world! And not to mention they all looked so dashing all day!

The whole night was so much fun! The night ended with the cutting of the cake, throwing of the bouquet & garter, and dancing. Lots of dancing!

Things got a little intense when it was the boy's turn. . . 

 Alex and I shared our first dance as a married couple to "Forever" by Ben Harper click here to give it a listen 

And my Dad and I danced to one of our favorite artists, Huey Lewis. "You Mean the World to Me"

And then we LET THE DANCING BEGIN...

 Our bridesmaids and groomsmen were so cute, and they made up a dance just for us! I have to admit, they have some pretty great moves!

We had such a great day and I know it wouldn't have been possible without the help of our loved ones and friends! Nothing is better than being with those that you love the most!  We are so grateful to have great people in our lives who have helped us get where we are today. . . And if I can just get touchy-feely for one second, I want to say on a more personal note, that I feel so incredibly blessed everyday for my sweet husband and all of the great family that supports us. We love you!
