The Wedding

Skye and Rachel's wedding was wonderful!  It was very beautiful and sweet.

On our way over to the church we saw this lovely sign at a local business.  We had to flip a U-turn and go snap a picture!  Then we stopped for a "snack" at In-N-Out Burger to tide us over to the luncheon at like 2 or 3pm.



The wedding cake was awesome.  Skye baked and built it himself and his boss at work just added the final touches.  Who bakes their own wedding cake?!?

The ceremony was great.  Very simple but very moving.  When Rachel started walking down the aisle with her father I just thought, "Wow! She is so beautiful!  Skye is a very lucky guy."  And then I looked over at Skye to see his reaction.  He must have been thinking along those same lines because he was getting very emotional....which in turn made me get all emotional.  It was so awesome to see how committed he his to her.  I can't wait to go to their sealing in a year.  Wouldn't it be cool if it were on their one year anniversary?  It would be awesome any time their both ready really. :o)  Here's a picture of the happy couple.


On a side note, Lily and Claire got to be the flower girls.  Well, really just Lily, but I made Claire a matching dress and they both got to walk down the aisle holding Tristen's hands.  Lily was very particular about throwing the petals.  She would only throw one petal at a time.  If she took 2 petals out of the basket she had to put one petal back.  It was pretty funny.  In all, four petals were thrown down the whole aisle.  Here's my cuties in the awesome dresses I made (that took me forever).
