The day went by so fast I could hardly take it all in! We got married at 9:00 in the morning, so I had to wake up at 4:30 to get ready. I couldn't sleep because I was so excited and ended up only getting around 3 hours of sleep anyway.
It was so busy inside the temple I was glad we were there pretty early. The temple workers all kept trying to give me stuff that wasn't mine, and they even lost my dress bag afterwards! I can only imagine how hard it is to keep all of the brides straight!
Everything was so surreal; I couldn't believe that our wedding day came so fast!
After we were done taking pictures we went to the chapel where our reception was going to be held, and had a luncheon. It was pretty tasty and it was nice that we were able to socialize with everyone that decided to come.
After the luncheon, Mark had this "brilliant" idea to go the Maverik and see if the clerk would give us a free drink. (Imagine--me in my wedding dress, trying to hold it up off the sticky floors, and Mark in his tux--walking into the gas station to get a fountain drink.) Jeff came along in his tux, too, to supervise and document the event.
Our reception was from 6-9, and it was a blast! But by the time it was finally over, I felt like a zombie! I was so ready to just get out of there.. Mark took FOREVER to change out of his tux and I ended up having to wait even longer before we could leave.
I'm glad that we were able to celebrate our big day with all of our friends and family... I'm so excited for the many years to come.
Here are some of our favorite wedding pictures:
I wish I could share more with you, but there are just so many that I love!
