My wedding reception invitation

I love our invitation. We had pictures taken at the Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch. It is a beautiful area on Greenfield and Guadalupe in Mesa, AZ.

This was on the back of the invitation.

Jason and I got engaged on May 8, 2016. 
We had gone to California for the weekend.

On Friday, May 6th after work we drove to 
Redlands, California. 
Went to the Redlands California Temple 
and did an endowment session.

Saturday, May 7th we went to Disneyland. 
It was my first time and he has been several times. 
He surprised me on the Thursday before that we were going. 
We planned the California trip to meet his dad and stepmom. 
I had no idea Disneyland was part of the plans. 
It was an awesome day!

Sunday, May 8th we had just left his parents house to head home. 
He drove to a spot overlooking a valley. 
We were on top of a mountain. 
He said he wanted to take some photos. 
I posed for his camera. He then got on one knee 
and proposed to me. I had no idea. 
We had already picked out the rings 
but didn't know he had bought them. 
Jason had been out of town and came home Thursday night. 
He bought the ring set Friday morning while I was at work.

According to Jason I didn't just say Yes, 
he said it was a very high pitched YES!
I was so happy! I cried tears of joy!

I smiled so much that day that my face hurt!



I love being Kristi Patterson

Here are a couple more photos from our engagement photos.
