My Sister's Wedding

Staci's Bachelorette Party/Girls Night- April 23rd
Grandma and Drakey relaxing by the pool. Staci & Ty after she received her endowment at the Logan temple- May 1st.
Such a neat experience to share with your sister.
Decorating my parent's backyard the day before the wedding.
Aunt Christie and Aunt Nancy. The Rose women are pros at this wedding stuff this summer. Staci's wedding was the first of 4.
Staci was married May 6th at the Salt Lake Temple.
It was quite chilly in the air, but it was still a beautiful day. Drake was awesome as always! He's an amazing baby. I love weddings and this one was especially great because it was the first of one of my siblings. Here are a few pictures from the temple.


I love snapping pictures of the bride and groom right when they come out of the temple. Don't they look SO happy!? You can see it in both of their eyes.




Staci's wedding was so beautiful!
Gorgeous bride
Handsome groom.
Amazing photographer (her MIL)
Stunning video (Seriously it makes my wedding video look like an 8th grade project)
Wonderful luncheon at Maddox- YUM
Staci sang their song "It Feels Like Home to Me" while Ty played the guitar. It was precious! Staci's voice is angelic.
Everything was perfect.
Until.....
the storm started.
By the time we realized it was going to snow, it was too late to move it to the church, so we stuck it out.
So Staci had a beautiful garden wedding in my parents backyard with snow falling all around, wind knocking over the table decorations, guests in winter coats, wind blowing chocolate from the chocolate fountain all over the table, her maid-of-honor ME running around like a chicken-with-her-head-cut-off rushing pictures inside the house so they wouldn't get wet, and bossing everyone around. The weather could have ruined everything, but Staci didn't let it. She kept her head held high and didn't let a little (or a lot) of snow ruin her big day. The best way to describe her reception- MEMORABLE. And it's fun to laugh about now.
(In the midst of the incredible storm, I didn't get ONE picture. Sad :) )
We ended up having such a blast! Check it out...it was awesome...
Welcome to the family Ty! You've been a part of the family for a long time, but now it's official!
Congrats Staci and Ty! We love you both so much!

We're so proud of Staci for just laughing through the reception. What else do you do? The most important part of the day was beautiful, however, and they are a beautiful couple! We were so sorry we could not be there.
