Bear Lake

Nathan and I LOVE bear lake! This year we were lucky enough to go twice.  Once with his family and once with mine. While up there we ate, played games (a lot!!!), watched movies, did crafts, mini golfed, swam, paddle boarded and played more games! oh and ate raspberry shakes mmmmm.




If you ever go to Bear Lake you HAVE to go to pickleville playhouse.  We saw Beauty and the Beast this time and it was awesome!



poor baby bowser wanted to come!

going on vacations while being married is SO much better.  I love sleeping next to Nay every night and wouldnt trade it for anything.

6/7/14 The Best Day Ever!! //the decorations//

okkkkk so apparently my computer can't handle uploading all of the pics so I am going to break my wedding day into a few different posts. :) yay! right?! this first post is dedicated to the decor. the style/look/colors you choose represents you and your personality. deciding my colors was the easiest part for me! I saw this color pallet on Pinterest and LOOOVED it. so i stuck with it.  I loved how it turned out.  the gold made it classy and the pink made it summery and the dark raspberry color with all the hanging flowers that made it have that brooding feel... well that made it me. 

June 6th...
The friday before the wedding was a very long day.  it's one thing when you know what you like and dont like, or picking out what kind of cake you want or what style of bouquet.. but putting all the decorations together and hoping it turns out how you want it.. that is something completely different. on the 6th we woke up at 7 A.M I ran over to Nathans where my sister in law, Sherry did my beautiful shellac nails. At 8 A.M my Mom and sisters came over and shortly after that the "crew" joined.  My friends, my aunts, my grandmas', my friends moms (who are my friends too.. obvi) my neighbors, my young women leaders, and all of Nathan's family, they all came to help and I was SOOO grateful.  Nathan did all of the lighting and did the fabric walls and ceiling.  it was AMAZING. without him it would not have had the "magical" feel that you want... of course he couldnt have done it without Sherry, Jordan, Melanie, Brad, and Blaine! thank you guys!! it was perfect.  

enjoy the pics ;)




this cake serving set was given to me at a shower by my mother in law, Laurie! I absolutely LOVED it. and it was even engraved with our names and wedding date. 


my cake was done by my talented grandma! <Bonnie> I was so in love!!!! <Erika Wolfgramm> did all of my flowers and they were perfect. that was like the number one thing i cared about.. my flowers and my dress. and I was THRILLED when I saw the finished product. THANK YOU GRANDMA AND ERIKA! wouldnt it be cool to be that talented.. :)



The amazing Lexi Marie Bills did my pictures. She is one of my best friends and I will owe her forever for capturing these beautiful moments. Thanks forever plex!<3



look how pretty the lights are!
all of our tables and chairs, table cloths and chair ties were from Diamond rental!


These pillars were at the entrance and exit and were made by the Pierce's! they were perfect.



My good friend Kate wrote on all the chalkboards, she is so talented!!



Nathan and I did the N & M last minute and i'm so happy we did! Recognize these pics?? they were used at the engagement! I love Nathan!


it also helped to have an AMAZING backyard and beautiful huge trees!





before I was engaged in like December Sherry calls me and says... Morgan, I am at Michael's and they are having a 70% off sale on all this beautiful gold stuff! so Nathan, Scotty and I rushed down and she was right. It was exactly what I envisioned.. lets just say I saved $400 that day. ;) Thank you Sherry and thank you Michael's!!
