"There's a burning in your heart..." - Death Cab for Cutie

I'M MARRIED! 

What the heck, right? First let me say I HAVE NOT ABANDONED YOU in this time of awesomeness in my life. In fact, I have no internet at my current residence. Yes, Seth and I are going a bit crazy because of it.

But back to wedding happenings! It was perfect. I had a fantastic bachelorette party the night before filled with sushi, mani/pedis, and drinks/dessert at Spark (thanks Blake!). Then I slept over at Sara's where we talked about whatever until I was too tired to be nervous anymore. I woke up early, showered, got my hair/makeup done, and then had enough time to sleep for 30 min in my car before walking into the temple. Seth got there after me, and holy cow did he look hot in his new suit. Mmm mmmmm...you'll see in pics later. We got our papers all signed and official, and then we went to change. The sealing was perfect - Dad did a great job. Seth was sure to write down everything he wanted us to know afterward. Yes, I cried before and after the sealing. I think the overwhelming emotion was that of awe. It felt more like a dream really, like it wasn't happening. But it was. And when I realized it was happening I just smiled. And cried some more. And so did Seth. :) I loved getting ready because I felt so pretty. My favorite part of my whole outfit was my hair. I'm so glad I went with real flowers in my hair. And thank goodness for my mom! She saved the day at least 10 times by having stuff I didn't, and knowing how to put the flowers in my hair, and running back and forth getting stuff for me. She was perfect. I LOVE YOU, Mom. :) Pictures were great, and here are just a few that Lora has yet to fix. These are the originals, so they'll probably be that much better after Lora has her way with them. By the way, if you are in need of a photographer, she comes highly recommended from us! I would have wanted her even if she wasn't my sister-in-law. 

We got sealed at the Draper temple. Also, isn't my dress fantastic?! Mostly custom for super cheap! Also, my flowers were perfect. Seriously, perfect. I could not have asked for them to be better. The reception place was also perfect. I don't think I can express just how perfect everything was, so just know that I was the happiest bride ever. :) One of the best experiences at the reception was when 2 of my EFY girls came and told me how much they loved me as their counselor :) That was one of the hardest summers of my life, and they made me feel so good. One of them told me, "You were my favorite counselor, and I just wanted you to know how much you made an impact on me that summer." My heart was already a pool of happiness, but it just got deeper when I heard that. Other highlights included a few friends who flew/drove in, Seth spitting out his cake at me after I shoved it in his face, and getting to read all the well wishes from our guests. Ok, but let's be honest. We all know you're here for the pics: 

If I had to pick a song for a potential soundtrack to a video or photo collection of our perfect day, it would definitely be this one:
