Hey everyone as promised I am posting more images from Cristy and John’s sealing in the Draper Utah Temple! I got to tag along with Doug Larson their Utah Wedding Videographer and he showed me all the hot spots at the temple grounds. Cristy and John had so much family and friends there to support them and witness their beautiful sealing! The weather was perfect, other than being a tad on the cold side (but no one can tell that from pictures! :) Cristy and John are such a beautiful couple inside and out and I’m pretty sure someone has got big plans for them while they are here!!! After their sealing they attended their reception held at John’s parents house in Heber City. Their family did lots of work preparing for the reception and it looked great! Congratulations Cristy and John!


I just love how happy they are in this shot!!! Exactly how they should be after leaving the temple! 
I love how John steals one from Cristy to show off for the camera! :) Shots like this make me smile! 
Beautiful couple at a beautiful temple! 
This is definitely my favorite shot of the day! 
I just love the lighting in this little nook! The warm glow from those doors is amazing! 

Here’s the famous cupcakes! All of John’s sister in laws spent the entire day creating these beautiful little cupcakes so I had to give them justice and feature them on the blog!

So who would have thought this old rusty chair that I spotted outside would make the perfect backdrop for Cristy’s bouquet? 
Or how about a tree stump to provide such a detailed ring shot? 
I love how happy everyone is in this photo as the couple enjoys their first dance together. 
This image is priceless to me…..it’s as if John has had a moment to really stop and think as he holds his new wife close. I can see so much love and care for her here. 
Let’s end with this playful shot of dad and son making sure they “get” the new couple as they make their get a way!
Enjoy!

These two were married on Oct. 8th in the Nauvoo Illinois Temple. Here’s a few for them! Maybe tomorrow I will get around to posting some from Jamie and Millers Esession.
Amanda and Josh Ivie:


One of her bridesmaids flew in from Utah for her wedding…..BONUS…..she’s a hairdresser!

They opted for a “first look” so we could get these great couple shots before their marriage ceremony.

It was super exciting to go back up there for Josh and Amanda’s sealing since that is also where TW and I were sealed! What a gorgeous building right?

Although it was rainy the entire day (which so they say is good luck) these two were troopers. I just loved this sign and couldn’t leave Nauvoo without that shot!!!

Their beautiful cake was from Rick’s bakery in Fayetteville. Their flowers were from Northwest Arkansas Florist and they rented their decor from Eventures!!!!

Amanda’s dad surprised them with a firework display

and we caught this awesome picture to wrap up the night.

Congratulations you two! I had a great time tagging along and enjoying every step of your wedding experience with you guys! Best wishes!
Erika

They are both pretty busy so as luck would have it today was one of the very few days we could get them in before they got hitched on Oct. 24th! They drove up all the way from Poteau today!
