My two flower girls: Samantha Nuvan, Peyton Callister and my two bridesmaids Jessie Nuvan, and Kiernan Callister.
Man Marco looked good in his tuxedo… I think the look on my face says it all.
The most memorable thing during the ceremony was when Marco reached over and held my hand....this seriously made my heart melt. And I am sure he needed someone to hold him up since he was ready to pass out from the anxiety of how many people actually attended the ceremony. What a turn out. We are truly lucky to have family and friends that love us enough to sit out in the rain to see our ceremony...or was it because they all wanted to make sure we were serious about getting married ;)
The Kiss
We got the opportunity following the ceremony to exchange rings....and it was a neat feeling that this ring has symbolized two things to me in the past 3 months....1st...a promise to make a commitment... and 2nd the fulfillment of that promise and to always keep it. As cheesy as it sounds every time I look at my wedding ring I think of Marco and it makes my heart smile.
Following the ceremony I got the opportunity to to talk to my Sister Tracey Whitley in Nashville. Her family did not get the opportunity to come to the ceremony, but she got to listen by phone. Many people wondered why Challene was standing up by the arch during the ceremony, and this was to hold the phone so my sister could hear the ceremony.
My dad was so emotional during the ceremony and even afterwards, I know that he was happy that I and Marco finally found one another and we were both happy.
My father loves Marco and he is the “golden child” to my family….he can do no wrong.
“Some things never change” I am arguing with my brother about being late to the wedding and he was mad at me for not waiting… both of us are NEVER on time. But I love him especially when he gives me one of his hugs.
Marco loves Grandpa Morley more than I could ever express in words. It made Marco so happy to see him smile so much.
My new niece Mallory Lynne Ulibarri born September 11th, 2008. Her mom Lesley was even nice enough to dress her up in our wedding colors. That was the best wedding gift....since I did not think they were going to bring her to the wedding.
Getting ready for the reception. We are so blessed to have family like Shauna, Trish, Challene, and Chelsea that helped so much with the reception and made it look beautiful. We love you guys!!

Marco is laughing because he has been telling me for weeks to prepare to have my face slammed with cake. And I had been begging for weeks for him not to… in fact at this very moment I said
“ Please honey, please don’t do it” and him being a wonderful husband that he is agreed not to do it....but............
He immediately told me that I told my first lie as a married couple….Sorry ;) but it was well worth it!!
