Carina & Spencer -- The Wedding Day

After a few crazy months of preparation... we made it to the wedding day! As a mother I have always dreamed of the day when my children would get married to their sweethearts. Carina is the first one. Tears of joy! Happy day for her and for me. Not because she is leaving the nest but because she is moving on to her next step of progression in life and on to eternity. Spencer is a great man and I'm so happy that they are getting sealed for time and all eternity in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. Most everything was prepared in advance now it's the day to celebrate and enjoy!


On our way to the temple! 


Very few temple guests were allowed inside the temple because of Covid. These are the guests from Carina's side of the family.

Spencer's temple guests


The bride and groom!
We had to wait outside of the temple until they let us in all together as a group.


They did it! Look at how happy they look!




Just a sampling of the pictures taken outside of the temple. It was a windy but sunny and beautiful day! We were so grateful for all of the support from family for this special day! We felt so much love and support from everyone! Family is the best!

I created this slideshow for Carina & Spencer. I loved making it and thinking of the experiences that got Carina to this special day! I may have shed a tear or two in the process! We showed the slideshow at the luncheon.

We loved this reception place! Naturally beautiful with all of the plants but inside! Best of both worlds!
