Here Comes the Bride...

...all dressed in white.... okay. I don't know the rest.

We went up to Payson for Shanon & Rick's wedding. It was beautiful! Out on a green lawn looking directly to the mountains. And intimate and lavish evening with a string quartet, fabulous food including a TO DIE FOR mashed potato bar! Can you hear the angels singing, "hallelujah! hallelujah!!" I'd never heard of such a thing, but we got to select from an assortment of food and have it sauteed...then the servers dug a little hole in our mashed potatoes and dropped our sauteed selection in with the gravy! Frankly, I should have passed on the pork loin and the prime rib and gone for a plate of potatoes!!

The three of us became friends when we were working at Fox-10.

The little box Shannon and I spent all night making a few months back looked beautiful with all of the fall decorations...including pumpkins, leaves and beautiful ribbons! I shared a picture of it a few posts back, but I was excited to see how pretty it looked on the table with the gifts!

The fall colors were beautiful!


All of our menus were written in hand-calligraphy and detailed all of the courses. Such a pretty touch! We sat at tables of four and I was SO HAPPY we were seated with Kate and her hubs Sean. They're expecting their first baby in February! :)


Another wonderful touch was the on-site babysitter the bride provided for us!! We were able to enjoy the reception, and dancing and walk a few short steps away to go check on Landon. The bride's sister has a son Landon's age so he was able to play all night and watch movies and generally have a great time, while we did too!!

The bride's photographer took this picture of Carlos and I dancing and emailed it to me Monday at work. I thought that was so nice and we love the picture!

As the night was drawing to a close, the groom grabbed the mic and started singing Sweet Home Alabama to his bride...and well, everyone else too. It was a sweet- Beetles meets Blushing Bride moment as you can see below!


We had a blast and Best Wishes to the Newlyweds!
