Luke and Rachel: December 20, 2014 ~ David Hyer's Wedding

December 20, 2014 ~ David Hyer's Wedding

Mom, Diana, Cody, Bryant, Luc, Jac and I were all able to drive up to Salt Lake and go to David Hyer's wedding! A lot of the Allen family was also able to make it and uncle James! We made it into a fun weekend and also saw the Piano Guys concert in salt lake after the wedding luncheon. We stayed at aunt Gina's house for the weekend, which was really nice of aunt Gina! The sealing was beautiful, it was fun to see David so happy and cute with his new wife. It didn't snow luckily but the weather was horrible...it was overcast, cold and raining on and off throughout the day. After the sealing we stayed in the lobby as long as we could because of the rain outside. After the cute newlywed couple made their entrance we then waited in the rain to take pictures. I felt bad because people started to leave due to the rain and I am not sure if they got all of the pictures they wanted. After pictures we walked over to the Lyon house where they had the wedding luncheon. KT's only wish for the wedding day was to have her wedding dinner and reception at the Lyon house and unfortunately the house was booked for dinner time and therefore she had a luncheon instead of a dinner and reception. It was a beautiful lunch and the house was so cool! I hope she was okay with not having a first dance though...I hope she doesn't regret it down the road. But after the lunch we went shopping...naturally and of course we happened to run into David and KT on the street. They were walking down the street in salt lake in their wedding cloths and looking so happy! After shopping we headed to temple square to look at the temple square lights! I haven't been to temple square around Christmas time in a while and it was breath-taking! After seeing the lights we headed to the Piano Guys concert and uncle Scott had hook ups and therefore we got a buffet before the show and watched the show in our own private box!! It was so cool to be able to watch the show from the box because we could walk around and choose any seat we wanted. After the concert we went to see the "tree of life" at Draper park. I had seen an article on Facebook talking about the "tree of life" and wanted to see it very bad. Luckily the tree happened to be at Draper City Park! The tree has more than 1,000 strands of lights on it. It was an amazing sight to see even though it was ridiculously cold outside.

Aunt Catherine borrowed jewelry from her brother-in-law who is a jeweler for the wedding...yep it's real!!
