Brandon and Korrine's Wedding 8.20.2011

For time and all eternity their love was sealed, two hearts became one today at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. It was so incredible to watch my big brother walk out of the temple holding hands with his sweetheart Korrine who is now my sister! As the adults went in to watch the sealing of these two love birds I got to spend the time with my nephew & niece.
Thank heavens for electronics to keep them entertained for the hour we were stuck in the car lol.
Around 10:15 we got all dressed (suits and ties & little girlie shoes) and headed over to the golden doors where we awaited the exit of the Bride and Groom!!
Here are some photos from that day-man is it windy up there! top left corner we have Brittany and John with their precious daughter Brooklyn. Then we have the bride and groom as they came out and one with the mother of the groom :) then jaxson & miss brooklyn again!
You then have the grooms sisters (aka me and britt!) with little brookie. Then the groom with his parents. Then one of my mom and I. Jaxson trying to break in to the temple lol..he really wanted uncle Bz. The bride and groom holding Brooklyn, The best man (john), bridesmaid (britt) & flower girl (Brooklyn), Jaxson holding Brooklyn back from running away lol. The happy couple in front of the temple :) and then the couples first kiss :)

Today was busy yet exciting! After the temple photos we headed to the luncheon where we got to eat delicious chicken cordon bleu, polynesian meatballs, potatoes. fruit salad, & rolls. The parents, best man, and maid of honor gave their speeches then Brandon got a surprise-a goblet full of chocolate peanut butter ice cream (his favorite!) Then the guests got served ice cream with strawberry or raspberry jam..it was yummy!

after which we headed to Korrine's parents house for more family photos and the reception...get this it was raining (and we weren't in Washington!!) so they had to move everything inside then it cleared up so we headed back outside :) Brandon and Korrine cut their cake-Korrine smashed the cake first so Brandon had to retaliate lol they are too cute!

The happy couple walked out to their friends and family blowing them bubbles (brooklyn loved them!) and then they saw their car which was "lovingly" decorated by Korrine's family ;) Brandon tore off the saran wrap and Korrine and him got inside and headed off to their week long honeymoon in California :) Enjoy your honeymoon newlyweds! We love you both!

Brandon and Korrine,
today you two went into the temple as two individuals
but you came out as one family.
The Heffron name you bear is known for its
competitiveness, love, compassion, outgoingness,
being adventuresome, helping one another.
We have seen all these attributes in you already
and so we welcome you with open arms.
Marriage is a wonderful journey
that you two have started on together,
your family is excited to see where life takes you both.
We love you and can't wait to have many memories with you!

Two videos for you guys! 1st one is of Brandon & Korrine walking out as a couple and their first kiss (twice because my mom didn't get the first lol) and the 2nd one is of them exchanging wedding rings for all those who couldn't go into the temple which was nice :)
