Happily Ever After Has Just Begun...

I became a Wheeler on warm summer's day on July 27th, 2013. My now husband Collin and I were sealed in the Sacramento temple for time and all eternity. It was a beautiful day filled with joy and laughter. We were beaming with happiness as we came out of the temple, seeing our family and friends who came to celebrate with us.

 

I will never forget the feeling of excitement that came over me after being sealed to Collin. I was so happy knowing that eternity had just begun with him.

 

We went around to take pictures which were done by Susanne Ashby. I love how all of the pictures turned out!

 

 

 

 

 





 

After temple pictures, we went to a wonderful luncheon in which Collin's parents had planned out. Everything was delicious! I want to say that I love my new in-laws! They are amazing and instantly welcomed me into the family with open arms. It made me proud that I married their son. They indeed raised a wonderful young man whom I love so much!! :)

 

We had our ring ceremony and reception in Rocklin, CA. I had tears of joy fill my eyes as I walked down with my dad.

 

 



 

 

 

Steve Schmidt, a really good friend of ours, conducted the ring ceremony. I will never forget the words that he spoke: "Always hold hands." It is true what he says. A husband and wife should always cling onto each other and never let go. They need to be there to support one another and love each other deeply.

 

We began our reception shortly after. My girls below made a special introduction for me. :)

 

 

We greeted so many people who came to celebrate our big day with us. It was a good feeling knowing that we were loved and supported by so many people. After the greeting line, Susanne wanted to go outside and take some sunset pictures. They turned out so gorgeous!

 

 

 

 

After taking portraits outside, we cut our wedding cake, did the bouquet/garter toss, and had dancing. They were all so much fun. I remember having such a great time with my family and friends towards the end of the reception. Good feeling. :)

 

We knew that it would be time to head out soon, so we got ready to leave on our honeymoon. We ran down with everyone blowing bubbles at us.

 

 

Before we got in our car, our family members said goodbye to us and we departed for Disneyland for our honeymoon.

 

My wedding day was full of happiness, love, and more. We knew that this was just the beginning of our lives together. I love my Collin so much! He is the best thing that has ever happened to me. :)
