Well hello, everyone! I'm finally getting around to sharing pictures of my wedding. I got married a month ago, but I got somewhat delayed because my husband decided to break his arm the week we got back from our honeymoon. I also don't have a way to host pictures to share. I know there are bunches of free ways to host pictures online, but I haven't had a chance to figure one out. However, today I found out that my brother in law posted all the pictures he took on picasa. They're mostly candid, but they give a great idea what it was like.

Oh, those are great! I love the dress, it's simple yet elegant (and I bet the Temple matron loved it, too! She was so thrilled mine had a modest neckline... ) Those pics don't show much of the Temple... Is that the L.A. Temple? That's the Temple (besides Dallas) I'm most familiar with (we got married there, and it's our Temple district), but I'm clueless with architecture when viewed at different angles than I'm used to... It sure looks like the L.A. Temple to me, though. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

Yep, it's the LA Temple. That's where my parents got married. As soon as we decided to get married in California I knew that was where I wanted it to be.

Isn't it a gorgeous Temple? (Well, apart from the view from the front, I mean. ) I'll never forget the first time my father-in-law saw it, he was totally shocked by how big it is. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

It was my first time there. It is definitely huge! The grounds (well, at least the ones we had access to) were gorgeous. It looks completely different in person than it does in the pictures you see. I wish we could have done a session before the wedding, but the temple wasn't even officially open. They just had three sealings the day we got sealed. No other ordinances at all. We felt very lucky to have the opportunity that we did. Posts: 1635 | Registered: Aug 2002

Ah, I was wondering when you said you were married a month ago, 'cause I knew it looked like L.A., but I had thought they just re-opened. Now it makes sense.
Did you get a chance to visit the Visitors' Center and see the statues out front?

I find it amusing that the pictures are labeled with "Jennie's Wedding", as opposed to "Jennie and Paul's Wedding" (though maybe your brother in law set it up that way).
Even today, my wife still refers to it as "her" wedding, not "ours" ;-)

All the more reason to go back someday!
