The Beginning of Eternity!

Its been a month since we finally tied the knot!! Yes.. an 8 month engagement isn't that long, but it felt like an eternity. I'm Olivia and my better half (yes he likes to remind me he's the more attractive one) is Sam. 

We met a February 2011 at a LDSA sorority/fraternity party at the University of Utah (where we both study), of course he loved my "british" accent and i was intrigued by his arm being in a sling, which he told me he had torn his pectoral muscle saving a fat man from a burning car while his (buffer) friends saved puppies from the back. I hate to admit it but i believed this for 5months until he was laughing about it with one of his friends!  Ever since we met we have been inseparable, with the big test taking him to England last summer to meet my extended family! i clearly passed because he didn't go running at the sight amazing yet  crazy family! Apart from my dad making him try some awful foods and not being able to understand some of my aunties (coff coff Jackle) It was great to show him where i grew up! 

He finally Popped the question on new years eve!!! We hadn't had much time together the week before so he promised he would take me out for a lovely dinner before we went to a friends party. He took me to Tuscany and the dinner was delicious, i do remember asking why we had come to such an expensive place haha. Leaving the restaurant to the party he stopped at a bench that looked over the city and said we should get out and see if its going to be a good place to see the fireworks, i told him no its too cold, i can see from the car its going to be perfect, but he insisted.. we got to the bench and hidden underneath he pulled out a huge bunch of roses and got down on one knee.. of course i cried and when i said yes his family set fireworks off for us! i really couldn't have wished for a more perfect proposal! 

Finally i was ready to plan our wedding!! August 14th was so far away and the thought of Sam leaving me for 6weeks studying Chinese in China made it a long Engagement, but was so worth it when our wedding day was the best day of my LIFE!!

Can't wait to show pictures soon!!
