Wedding Photography

So we finally got our pictures back from the photographer! yay!!! It took almost two months to get them but now lookin at them they were worth the wait.  Evelyn Eslava di all of them and she did a great job.  We found her on facebook and loved her work.  It took her awhile to get them to us because our apartment doesnt really have reliable mail delivery but we picked them up when we went to Utah for beccas wedding. I put most of them on facebook but these are some of my favorite.

Wedding Day Bliss!!

November 11th, 2011 was the most perfect day ever. Matt and I were sealed together for all eternity in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple in South Jordan, Utah. The ceremony started at eleven and the room was packed full of our close friends and family. I was so amazing to see everyone in there escpecially Matthew. The Oquirrh Mountain Temple was so beautiful it made it so much more magical. It took my breath away kneeling across the alter from Matt, I couldn't believe my dream was finally coming true! It was the most special moment sitting there next to Matt listening to the advice the sealer had to give. I was so calm and peaceful, I loved it. I will never forget being in the temple with Matthew that day. I love him sooo much!

After the temple sealing we headed over to Noah's in Lindon for our big wedding bash!! I have to admit before the sealing I was stresssssssed out, everything seemed like it was falling to pieces. The wedding coordinator was late so I thought I wouldnt get my bouquet, she called two days before to ask me what my colors were again! I thought the whole thing was gonna be crap. While Matt and I were driving to Noah's though, I wasnt stressed about a thing, I didnt really care anymore, after all the important thing had already taken place, and was perfect! When we got to Noah's Matt and I had a little trouble actually finding our party room ha but we finally did. We walked in and everyone cheered. The place looked FABULOUS! I was proud of all my hard work on planning :) But seriously. I was worried I had taken to many ideas and thrown them together, but the final result was amazzzzzzzing. The ceiling looked great. The food superb. The candy station was magnificant. Table décor was stunning. And most of all a room full of people who loved us and came to support us.

We went around chatting with everyone thanking them for coming so we didnt really get to eat much. Cami dished us up some good eats about half way through and they were delish! Im even good at picking food out ;) While we were eating we watched the wedding vid I put together, with ava on my lap she turns to me and says “this isn't a very good video.” What?! I had spent weeks on it! Haha. She wanted a princess movie. I loved seeing everyone there and thank them for all their support. They made the day truly special. I am so happy to be sealed to Matthew and my Heavenly Father. I love them both so much and hope everyone can feel the joy I felt on that day. Love you guys!

 It had just snowed the night before the wedding, I was worried it would block the roads or cause a delay but it turned out to make the day even more beautiful!  The trees and ground dusted with a fresh powdery snow with the sun shining down made it the perfect November wedding

These last few months have been sooo crazy!  So fun but also so stressful at the same time.  In October Matthew and I went to Utah to finish up some wedding plans and meet the fam.  The day was packed wit hwedding errands, from dress fittings to luncheons, and flower arrangements to planning the menu for the big day, it was stressful!  I was wondering how some girls obsess so much about their weddings, but then I remembered, not everyone has to do it all in one day. 
That evening Matt and I headed over to Cupcake Chic to meet Kar and the kids.  It was the cutest place ever with cupcakes to die for.  Its my new favorite place in Utah.  It was great seeing Kar and her kids, they have all grown up so much! I love Farrahs long luscious hair and Avey's pierced ears, and Jett is talking so much now.
After all the wedding things were done we hopped in the car for a six hour drive to Idaho with Mark and Sue (and watty of course).  It was a long and treacherous drive.  But we finally arrived at the nice toasty cabin and were greetedd by Emily at four in the morning.  That week was a blast!  We four-wheeled the whole weekend, fished, played games, ate delicious food, and went to The Bear and Wolf Discovery Center at Yellow Stone.  It was so good to meet little Watson, and seein Fish and Truey again.

 
Matt and Mark caught tons of fish! and I love to four wheeeel

At the Bear and Wolf Discovery Center and the middle is at the Falls (obviously)
