NUMBER OF ATTENDANTS: 14 bridesmaids, 2 maids of honor, 14 groomsmen, 2 best men and 2 flower girls.

HOW THEY MET: We grew up about a mile from each other.

THE ENGAGEMENT: I was going on a family vacation out to Park City, Utah. I asked Will to come, but he said he couldn’t because of work. The first night we were in Park City he surprised me by showing up in the parking lot of a grocery store. The following night we all went to dinner to Glenwild Club in Park City, and after dinner he took me outside by a beautiful brick fire pit and asked me to marry him.

FAVORITE DATE: I don’t know if you could call it a date, but we have pizza night on Sunday nights.

WHAT SHE LOVES MOST ABOUT HIM: He can make me smile even when I really don’t want to, and he can make me feel like I’m the most loved person in the world.

WHAT HE LOVES THE MOST ABOUT HER: Her pig nose and her patience

WEDDING COLORS: White, with a little bit of gold here and there

WEDDING FLOWERS: Dendrobium orchids, phalaenopsis orchids, white roses, hydrangeas, amaryllis and cymbidium orchids.

WEDDING CAKE: Almond flavor with vanilla filling and icing. The top layer was made with raspberry filling.

THE THING THAT WE WOULD’VE DONE DIFFERENTLY: I would’ve eaten more of the wonderful food, and booked a later flight on Sunday. Six a.m. came too early.

WHAT WAS UNIQUE ABOUT THE WEDDING: A tequila bar.

THREE ADJECTIVES TO DESCRIBE THE WEDDING: Joyful, understated, elegant

ABOUT THE HONEYMOON: We stayed at a luxury golf and spa resort on the west coast of Barbados. Tiger Woods was married there, so that was cool for us. We spent our week in Barbados drinking, eating, surfing, scuba diving and in the spa.
