Planning A Wedding

I always thought planning a wedding would be so much fun, but man was I wrong. Planning was so stressful and I don't know what I would have done without my mom and the rest of my family and friends helping me.

One of the first things I did was go dress shopping. I must have tried 6 different stores and my favorite experience was at Margines, not only do they have an amazing dress selection but a great staff to. There prices are great also! I also went to David Bridals and had a terrible experience there and they are still contacting me trying to sell me things.

I took my mom and my sister-in-law, Mindy. Here is the dress I fell in love with, I knew right away when I put it on that it was my beautiful princess dress. It also was on sale which just deepened my love for it. They asked me to try on a few more dresses but every time I just wanted to be put back into my princess gown. Here are some pictures taken by Valerie Bybee.

This is one of my all time favorite pictures from the wedding, it is taken at the Utah Capitol Building. Also, this picture shows my veil which my mom ordered off the internet from China, it was a bet but it turned out beautiful.

This is a picture of first looks, Jaron wasn't allowed to turn around and look while I stood behind him. I hope that gives everyone an idea of the look of the front of my dress.

Picking the dress out was probably one of the easier things about wedding planning. The hardest was defiantly figuring out the invitations and getting them all mailed out. It was hard to remember everyone and even now I remember people I forgot to invite; sorry, to everyone I missed!

My dad built me a beautiful back board for us to stand in front of. Here is a look at it,



Although, I would like to say I did a lot of the planning it truly was my mom who worked so hard to make my entire wedding turn out perfect. I am so grateful for her and making one of my dreams come true.
