Hanna & James Receptions

Hanna and James had their wedding reception in Cokeville, Wyoming, the night before they got married. I would highly recommend this. It makes the wedding day more focused on the temple, less busy, and the newlyweds can leave after the family dinner.

The reception at the Cokeville church as simple but great. Lots of James's aunts and uncles came and people from their community. We also had some great people come to see us in Cokeville...all of my siblings and parents, Don & Lynn Thomason (Austin's mom's cousin), Declan Nunn (favorite cousin), and Bryan and Bonnie Summers (friends from Hyrum).

A funny moment was after the reception when we were cleaning up, I walked into the kitchen and one of James's nephews had snuck a brownie  and Vonda (James's mom) told him not to do that and made him do 10 push-ups right there in the church kitchen.

Vonda is very resourceful and had made or borrowed all of the decorations. Janetta (James's sister did the flowers on the backdrop) that were so awesome!!
