Behind the scenes, Bridals

I believe a good Bridal session is a must have for any wedding. After the dinner we went over to the Provo temple for some dusk/sunset wedding party photos.  Melanie said it was like a big family Cosplay. We hired Glenn to take the official pictures.

Wedding Dinner

A lot of people worked to make this dinner nice for Graig and Andrea.

Warren and helpers did all of the set up.

Connie made five beautiful gourmet cakes and gluten free cup cakes

My Mom cut up all of the watermelon

Patrice made the baked beans

Whitney came and helped me make the green salad

Sara helped keep the food bowl full and the punch bowl filled.

Connie, Patrice, and Sara cleaned it all up.

Many friends and family traveled to be there to celebrate.

Preparing for the wedding

Warren, Mary, Whitney, Dad, Mom, Angie, Luke, Graig, Andrea, Karen, Vincent, Jessica, Clayton, and Emma.

Andrea choose to get her Endowment in the Mt. Timpanogos temple. She had a lot of family support and Warren and I got to be the witness couple!

 Jessica and Clayton came over and cubed all of the chicken for the skewers. I kept busy making the marinade. The chicken would later get put on the skewers by Warren and Allison and then get cooked by David Atkisson.

Melanie was the wedding florist. Here she is making flower crowns for the bridesmaids.

I did Melanie's hair and then she did mine!

 It was a bit windy and the thin plastic table clothes wanted to be sails. It finally took duck tape and seven people to get one table cloth secured.

 The ivy and the bud vases were not happy with the wind either. The vases kept blowing over.
