Wedding Bells Are Ringing!

My little sister Summer was just married on July 9, 2011.
Last week was non-stop craziness as we finished all the last minute stuff for the wedding reception.

Thursday evening, they took their bridals.
Did you know that it is really hot in Arizona in July?
Well…it is.
And walking around in a tux and a wedding dress makes it even hotter.

While the photographer did her thing, I snapped pictures in the background.

Isn’t this wall so pretty?
Your wedding is the one time when you truly feel like a princess!

All day Friday, we devoted our attention to decorating the church for the reception.

  

Tableclothes  were ironed,
chairs were wiped down,
and those paper lanterns were hung at least 3 different times.

But the end result was perfect,
so it was worth all the effort that was put into it.

And finally, the big day arrived.
They walked out of the temple as Mr. and Mrs. Jake Fullmer.

We didn’t take too many pictures outside of the temple
(since it was over 100* that day!).
The reception that evening was beautiful,
and we finished cleaning up and taking everything home just minutes before the monsoon started!

And, of course, we all spent Sunday sleeping…and sleeping…and sleeping some more!
