More Wedding Photos

The beautiful Logan temple and the gorgeous weather.
Even the groom got surprised by being kissed
What is more romantic than a grassy lane and a parasol

The park had a beautiful setting for photos

Megan and Erica made this pretty sign for the gate at the park.

Okay this time I am going to try to actually put some captions with the pictures. Maybe one of these days I will manage to make my blog as cool as other peoples but for now this will have to do.

Let me start by explaining that about 5 weeks before the wedding, we found out that the highway out to where our reception was scheduled would be closed, so either we would have to reroute everyone 40 miles out of their way or find somewhere else to have the reception. Well I decided that I didn't want to make people drive that far so we began looking at other options. Brad suggested we look at a pretty little park in Providence, it was beautiful so we reserved it and sent out postcards to all of the Utah wedding guests to let the know of the change.







The off shoot of this joyful little switcharoo was that my family was forced to pull together to pull off a beautiful reception. They did a beautiful job I could have asked for more. There is a great story that goes along with this too because obviously since we were having the reception outside success was contingent on weather cooperation. The weekend before the wedding the weather was gorgeous however by monday afternoon clouds had rolled in and the temperature dropped. It was cold and rainy on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday morning. We decided to go forward with faith that things would work out and we would be able to have the reception outside. When we went into the temple it was still drizzling, when we came out 2 hours later at 1pm the sun was out and the weather was beautiful. The weather stayed beautiful for the rest of the day and we woke up Friday morning to clouds and rain again. I know that in the grand scheme of things the weather at a reception doesn't really matter but it was nice to have our faith pay off.

Wedding Pictures

I finally managed to get my computer to cooperate so here are some of the pictures from the wedding, when I get a chance I will put more on here. I have a lot of great pictures so if you want copies please just let me know.

Lunch with the family and Josh's blessing

Here are some pictures from Joshua Peter Crane's blessing.

Brad and I went down to Salt Lake last night, Aunt Arda was kind enough to let us stay with her so we didn't have to get up at the crack of dawn to make it to Kristy and Peter's church by 9am. Brad and I thought it would be fun to take advantage of the fact that I live close enough to family now to be able to be at family type things. So we went to the blessing of Kristy and Peter's little boy Joshua. It was also a good chance to say goodbye to Kristy before she and Peter move to Indiana for Peter's residency. I thought it would be fun to include some of the pictures that we took. I have decided that for snapshots this little digital camera is the best thing ever.

2 weeks, 14 days, a fortnight! In other words entirely too long

2 weeks from today I will probably be eating breakfast in preparation of the big day. Yep you guessed my wedding is exactly 2 weeks from today. Not that I am excited or anything. Brad and I are getting our marriage license today so that will be the last of the official paperwork that we have to obtain. Yeehaww!

Okay i need some advice, we are moving into a slightly rundown basement apartment and I need some ideas of how to make it more homey. Please share any low cost ideas you might have, thanks.

Reception Park Pictures

Here are some of the pictures, they uploaded in the wrong order so the ones of the park entrance are at the end of the post. Let me know what you think. Megan, I saw an idea where they had taken small glass votive candle holders and using wire had suspended them from branches, which looked really cool. Also we are looking to seperate the food prep area under the pavilion from the guests so any ideas to accomplish that will be grately appreciated.

Rather than trying to attach pictures to emails I am just going to post the pictures of the reception site on my blog. It really is the cutest little park.

I feel like a kid before Christmas.

Okay, so I got up to Logan on Saturday evening, moved all my junk into the apartment, and have been figuring out reception stuff, internship stuff, and cleaning the apartment since then. Are we sure it is really only Wednesday? It really feels like it should be at least Friday, but then again that could be because it is now only 15 days until the wedding. Not that I am counting down or anything.

I found out that I will be working in the Riverdale Target store for the summer. I am all suited up with khaki pants and red polo shirts. I have the sneaking suspicion that I will be sick of those colors by the end of the summer but maybe I will discover that retail is in my blood.

Brad has a really busy couple of weeks coming up. He is finishing up his corrections officer training program so lots of tests and such, he is also getting ready to apply and test with the Cache County Sheriffs department, oh and let's not forget that he is going to be getting married here in 15 days. Gee and I thought I was busy while school was going on.

FYI: Location Change.
For all of you who read my blog and are planning on attending the utah wedding reception due to road construction the reception has been moved to:
Von's Park
350 E Center Street
Providence, Utah

Hope to see you all there.

The Countdown

20 days to the wedding, but who cares because I will see Brad tomorrow evening. Yippee, now if my car can just handle the weight I have loaded into it.
