i love weddings

...especially when they take place here

...or any LDS temple for that matter. I have always loved going to weddings. They're just so full of happiness and love (<-ew! could I sound cheesier) but it's true! You should see me at them, I just sit there with the biggest smile on my face the whole time with my camera in hand. I really have always looked forward to them. Even when I was younger I always loved going and dreaming of my own wedding some day. Then there came a time after I graduated high school, where, I'll admit, I was a little more bitter going to weddings, just 'cause if it was in the temple I couldn't attend, and I wanted it to be me. Then once I had my own and I was finally the married one, I just loved going to enjoy the temple ceremony, the food, the wedding video, the dress, the music, the dancing, the kissing, just everything! I really do love them! Lucky for us, we were able to attend three weddings in the last two months! And the best part is, we were invited to everything for all three which I loved even more! Ryan isn't your typical guy and actually enjoys weddings for the most part as well, so I'm glad I have someone I can enjoy them with.First we had my cousin Kristin's wedding September 2nd.Kristin & Cameron

I really loved going to her wedding just because I got to see a lot of extended family that I usually only see once or twice a year. She had a wedding dinner the night before at Brick Oven -

Then the ceremony and reception were the following day and night. Her reception was in her parents backyard and it was so pretty and fun! I was so happy my family could go.

It really was so fun to see her get married just 'cause Kristin, her sister Heather, and I had all talked about our wedding days ever since we were little. She looked so pretty!

Then we had our friend Dave's wedding September 25th.

Deb & Dave
These two are such a good looking couple! She is seriously so pretty and I loved everything about her wedding. Her dress, colors, flowers, decorations, even the weather was perfect! I really was a little jealous, if I could go back- I'd probably copy everything about her wedding. Loved it!

We had the ceremony that morning, then a wedding brunch at Little America. It was really fun 'cause all the friends were invited. Later that night is when the party started! It really was the funnest reception. They had dancing and both my girls were loving it. I took a few videos but I tried to find just one that showed how much my girls loved dancing. You'll have to notice Della bouncing away and Sara thinking she's so cool with absolutely no rythm.

We wanted to stay and see Dave and Deb leave in the helicopter but the girls were ready to go. (Now do you see why I was jealous?) It really was one awesome wedding!Then we had our friend Jordan's wedding October 9th.Jordan & Kayla
These two got married on one of the busiest days of the year! I guess there were 70 weddings scheduled at the Salt Lake Temple that day. Their ceremony was in the afternoon, followed by a dinner and the reception at the Joseph Smith Memorial building.

I really did love going to all these weddings and am kind of sad 'cause I can't think of any other ones coming up. At least I got a good dose of them this year!
