mrs. crane


yesterday my lovely best friend Lindsay
said goodbye to her last name of Chriss and hello to her new last name of Crane.

i was lucky enough to be her Maid of Honor and be apart of their happy day.
they were married in the Salt Lake Temple and they just beamed the whole day!
it meant so much for them to be sealed in the House of the Lord


the day started off for me at 6:00 am (and ended past midnight after packing and cleaning up, but so worth it. i had so much fun!)
i literally rolled out of bed and drove over to Lindsay's. i did her hair and makeup and off she went to the Temple!
i hurried and ran home, showered, got ready and zipped over to the Temple to greet them coming outside. don't they look like a princess and prince- especially with his uniform?
seeing her married for the first time

after they came out we had big group pictures on the Temple Steps. while the rest of the party when back to get ready for the Luncheon, Lisa and I (Lindsay's mom) went around with the couple to help with more pictures.
i mainly fixed her train and kept her hydrated.
we had tons of people stop and watch them take pictures. it isn't often you see a Marine as a groom, he looked awesome.
at one point I ducked into the Lion House to buy rolls and a slice of chocolate cake to give us all a boost. it is amazing how much better we all felt after carbs and chocolate
then we had a yummy luncheon where I had to give a toast, I mainly just cried during it.
I am just so proud of Lindsay and so excited for her.
After their honeymoon to San Fran the couple moves to California where Michael is stationed.

the ring ceremony and reception was at Le Jardin. It was gorgeous!
it was a magical garden with delicious food and an awesome photo booth.

Congratulations Mrs. Lindsay Crane!
