Travis and I met through mutual friends three years ago. The day I met him he actually had no idea he was being set up on a blind date. When he finally figured out I was the girl his friend had been talking about, he was quick to tell me “You know, I am never getting married.” Well, it looks like I was able to change that boy’s mind! We were engaged two years later!

Cinderella has always been my favorite princess. So when it came time for Travis to propose he knew exactly how to make my fairy tale come true. I had a fairy godmother who brought me a gorgeous dress and sparkly new shoes (that looked close to a glass slipper), and he proposed to me in a grand ball room!

Our wedding plans were put on hold after receiving news that Travis would be deployed very quickly. We planned to have our wedding the following year when he returned home.

During the first two months of Travis’s training for his deployment he was stationed in Texas. We both knew we wanted to get married and two weeks before he was to be deployed overseas I married my prince charming.

Picking out the dress is what every girl dreams about. I wen’t to Allyse’s hoping to find something elegant and just right for our special day. After trying on several dresses I put on this one and knew it was “The One!” My family and the Allyse’s Bridal consultants all agreed that this was the perfect dress for me.

 

 

I couldn’t have asked for a better day. Our photographer, Julie Dawn Photography, was able to capture all of the happiness, excitement, and love we had that day. We are so thankful for the love and support from all of our family and friends and for Allyse’s Bridal for helping make my fairy tale a reality.

Jesse and I met in the fall of 2009.  We lived in the same building and one day I was baking banana bread in my apartment and he caught the smell and quickly came to meet me and eat the entire loaf.  We went on a couple of dates that semester and  became really good friends.  We dated that winter semester and then did long distance over the summer break.  We broke up when he got back, but got back together very quickly.  The next two semesters were so fun and we realized that we were meant for each other.  We got engaged in June and then headed to the middle east for 4 months.  Jerusalem became my home and Jordan was his.  We were only 45 miles apart, but we were only able to see each other once.  We came back to the states right before Christmas and were married a week later.  Being married to Jesse has been the most delightful and beautiful adventure of my life.

I had originally wanted to make my dress, but went dress shopping the day after we got engaged at Allyse’s Bridal.  The second I came out in the dress, my parents and I knew that it was “my dress.”  The store manager sealed the deal when she put the most beautiful veil in my hair and it was exactly what I wanted.  I ended up making my shoes instead of making my dress, and I loved how they turned out.

The day was so peaceful and blissful.  My favorite part was definitely the ceremony itself.  When we walked into the room we were to be married in, saw our families and close friends waiting for us, I was overwhelmed with love and total gratitude.  The moment that we went from being single to married was the best moment of my entire life.

We used Anna James for our photography and we loved how she captured our day for us.

Tyler and I lived in Carriage Cove, BYU student housing, and were members of the same ward and FHE group; what better place to look? Well, naturally, we became friends and I spent a lot of time at his apartment…We were playing soccer on the same BYU intramural team and had a ton in common, but I was over there so much mainly because I had started dating his roommate… Fortunately, that didn’t work out and Tyler was there to pick up my broken heart :) After I finally made the right choice in roommates, Tyler and I quickly fell in love and became engaged at a Family Reunion in Park City.
My favorite parts of the wedding day: It’s hard to choose just one but I think the best moment EVER was when Tyler and I were finally married, standing together with our family and friends. It was such a wonderful feeling of love and excitement and I could not believe that I was lucky enough to have this man as mine for forever. That’s a feeling that hasn’t gone away. My other favorite parts were 1. having soo much family around! Most of my relatives live far away (my immediate family is in GA, where I’m from!) so it was a real treat to see so many of them gathering together to celebrate our wedding. And not to mention our great friends that came out to support us as well!
2. My younger brother Ethan’s rap. He has a special talent for lyrics and rapping and he really stole the show with his rap.
3. The food! My cousin was/ is a professional chef and the food was delicious! We had a soup/salad bar and it was exquisite!
4. My final favorite part was at the end of the day, leaving the reception, driving off with my man and never having to be separate from him again!
 
Another aspect of my reception in Georgia that I loved is that we shared it with my brother. My older brother and I got married very close together and had the great idea of a joint reception in Georgia! This was a blast because he and I are close and also because he married one of my friends/previous roommate! She also wore a dress from Allyse’s Bridal!!
 
The BEST part of all of this was that I get to remember every detail and every moment because of the fabulous work of our photographer: Rebecca Loren Photography.  I honestly am astounded every time I look at the photographs she took. LOVE THEM ALL! She truly caught the magic of my special day and I will treasure them forever.
