 He made her look so beautiful Even his dark pictures looked lively and bright He was good at candid shots as well 43000063a 43000084a Creative angles too!       |
Peter McDearmon
I finally found a photographer that I liked! JerriAnn recommended utahbrides.com, so I decided to give that one a shot. The bridal shows that I went to had this new modern dark lighting that I'm not a big fan of, so I was looking for someone that had happier looking pictures regardless of the weather. Here are some of his sample shots and he sounded really nice on the phone.

 I love Jacob's eyes in this one. :-) This was our favorite initially Got to turn the head sideways for this one Jacob looks handsome in this one, but my hair is blocking him off.     |
Redone Pictures
So after you have seen the previous post, you can understand why we were in need of new photos. Jacob's sister Fran happened to have a nice camera and a free morning to retake some pictures. I was amazed at how much of a difference it made with coloring, time of day, and someone there to fix your flyaway hairs and posture. Here are the ones we really liked. As you can tell, we used these for our announcements and not the other ones for a good reason! Thanks Fran!

 My favorite least favorite This one wasn't too bad, but the lighting is just terrible. My niece Ashley said this was her favorite. When my sister asked why she said, "Just because" There are feet growing out of my head My parents' favorite. There's a tree growing out of my head in this one. Curtis loved Jacob's expression on this one. Jacob calls this one "ET" haha, I love him.         |
Pictures Gone Wrong
Either really funny or really embarrassing!
So our first attempt at engagement photos didn't run as smoothly as we would have liked. I should not even be posting these, but for some reason they really entertain me. The lighting/angles/positions.. well a lot of things just didn't work out. While I should trash these, they just crack me up.

 Official Announcement First Draft Engagment2 Third Draft     |
Wedding Invitation
Announcements
Sorry, it has been so long since an update!
Thanks so much to Chantelle on the invitations! My cousin graduated from BYU with a major in illustration, so when it comes to photoshop, she does magic. She was amazing and looked at the layouts we liked and created our announcement. I think it looks wonderful! Thank you so much Chantelle! I attached some of my own trials, but the main picture with maroon boarders and brown boxes is the finalized one. If you click directly on the picture, they enlarge to see them better. |

Wedding Flowers
For the wedding
I found some cute arrangements of calla lily boutonnieres online, but it might just be cheaper to get a simple white rose one tied with turquoise ribbon. I don't know where in Provo to find so many, so this might be a hard task. I'm not sure if silk or real flowers will be better.

Wedding Gift Registry
Wal*Mart
We decided to be registered at WalMart. I'm not how sure it exactly works, so if anyone has any suggestions on how to do a registry, I would greatly appreciate it. We tried going online and registering there, but we weren't sure how to deal with our move as well. I'm planning on going out there tomorrow if Curtis will let me use the car.

 Calla lilies all the way inside the glass Some spurting out. A little too many though. Turquoise lanterns for Alaska    |
Oak City and Anchorage
Here are some possible decoration ideas for the Oak City and Alaska Receptions. Since the one in Utah will be more summery, Jacob's mom found some really cute columns that we might use for the inside of the chapel. The tables look like they will be white table cloth with brown stream. In the centerpiece it looks like we may be going with a narrow glass with a calla lilly in the middle surrounded by turquoise rocks. :-) It sounds so pretty already!
The one in Alaska will have a more winter theme with christmas trees lined with turquoise and brown ribbon and turquoise and brown Japanese lanterns. |

Bridesmaids
Change in wardrobe.
Yesterday Jacob and I went to go check out the bridesmaid dresses from the online store. They turned out to be too short, but luckily Jacob's sister came to town today and helped save the day by driving me around to check out other options and look at decorations. We found these beautiful turquoise glossed shirts. On top of that Fran offered to sew skirts to match the tops. We found some brocade fabric with blue and brown woven in that looked perfect. Thank you so much Fran!

 Close Up Side Shot I love the diamond leading up to it! Picture from the night he proposed.     |
Wedding Rings And Jewelry
Perfect :-)
Here's some different angles of the ring. I love it so much! He picked an amazing stone as the center. I like how there are 4 circular cut stones leading up to two diamond shaped diamonds which lead it to the centerpiece.
