Introducing Mr. and Mrs.

The pictures are here! 

It was such an incredible day. Such an incredible week! I am still blown away by all of the love and support from everyone. It all went by much too quickly.

Family and friends began to arrive on Wednesday. We spent the days leading up to the wedding finishing final touches, relaxing, and catching up. Friday night got things rolling with a beautiful rehearsal dinner at BluWater Bistro--Greenlake. It was such a blessing to be able to enjoy some time with the whole family and bridal party. 

While I love Devon a whole lot, these guys had my heart first.

After the dinner, we ventured across the street to the lake. It was right as the sun was setting, the moon was out, and the air was cool. Every couple was given a balloon to send well-wishes for us to the heavens. I think I started crying in the first 2 minutes. Yet another sweet and tender moment!

Ugh. This little guy is now my nephew. What a cutie!

 Saturday morning, I was up at 6am to start getting ready. Me, the bridesmaids, and my awesome hairdresser Tessa all stayed at Lauren and Janna's apartment so we wouldn't have to fuss with commuting. While Tessa worked on my hair, Nichelle attacked my face and made me flinch with the mascara. No big deal. They had me all prettied up in no time and before I knew it, I was headed out the door and on my way to the temple with Brent, Devon and my mom.

The ceremony was absolutely perfect. I cannot even begin to describe how incredible it was to share the alter with Devon as we were sealed together forever. It is such a blessing to know that Devon will be by my side for eternity. He lifts me up when I am down and strengthens me through my trials. I am amazed by his goodness each and every day.

Our new family!

We held the reception at Tutta Bella -- one of our favorite pizza places. Everyone ate, laughed, and enjoyed the company. We had some old family friends come in who my parents hadn't seen for over a decade! It really flew by. I would have loved to stay longer and catch up with everyone. Regardless, it was perfect. And I got to smear frosting in Devon's beard, so not too bad!

Our friend Cassie made us this fantastic red velvet cake--
the first kind of cake Dev and I made together!

Cutie.

I feel a bit repetitive. I've never been great with words. It truly was the perfect day. I got to marry my best friend, be surrounded by my closest friends and family, and just soak in all of the love you could possibly imagine. My heart is full.
