After four days of sunshine and Disney, we made the four hour drive to Las Vegas, arriving at the wee hour of the morning and crashing in our designated room of the guesthouse. It wasn't until the next day that we actually got to see the beautiful place we had slept. My grandparents had rented a vacation home for us all to stay in and also have Dani and Hank's reception that evening. It was huge, it was gorgeous, and it was filled to the seams with family. The morning hours were full of greetings and laughter as 25+ Congers, Krops, and Jorgensons all wandered the massive hallways and rooms, finding out who was staying where and most importantly of all, where the showers were.
After the family brunch, it was off to the Las Vegas temple for the sealing. It was a beautiful day, with the stunning blue sky looking incredible against the white and gold spires of the temple.
{That constitutes the only three pictures I personally took of the day.}
As a bridesmaid in charge of the {absolutely gorgeous} flowers, I waited inside and handed them out as family members trickled out of the ceremony, all beaming and saying things like "They look so happy," and "Just wait till you see them!"
Boy were they right.

Then it was back to the house for an elegant reception with delicious food and wonderful friends.

| As the only bridesmaid with a potential husband attending the wedding, the entire audience was rooting for my catching of the bouquet. Check out that air, people. I'm proud of it. |
A perfect day. [:
