Re: Des & Chris Siegfried - Wedding - Fan Forum - Discussion #2

[luvstx]

I'm enjoying reading all about their wedding as I think they are a lovely couple. We visited friends in redondo beach last month and they took us to see the wayfarers chapel and we had lunch at Teranea so it's fun to hear the bachelor connections there.

Can someone tell me the connection between Ali and Des? Just wondered why she was there

I think they became friends when her season was airing and they hung out a lot before Des moved to Seattle. Ali was at the bridal shower too and missed the bachelorette party due to something for her job. She was also very vocally Team Chris all season long.

Add my I thought both dresses were beautiful and suited Des very well

I also loved the pale pink tone that the ceremony dress had. Kind of made it more "alive" and special!

may i add, her blog was the only one sticking for Chris as the F1, against all the spoilers during that season (and no, i dont think Des filled her in )

You both deserve to take a bow for keeping this thread going - Mura you were so insistent on Chris being F1, I became a believer during the show and was just wowed by his proposal (and Des' I'll tell you everything). How often is it we see something like that - in real life or on TV?

Bleu - you've kept the post-show thread going with your great sleuthing skills. How wonderful for both of you to see this to conclusion.

Shall we make a pool on the number of children - I say 2!

^ She said she wants 3-4.

I say 3.

TY Norcalgal!...ITA that the proposal is the most heartfelt of the franchise's history . No one can beat the power couple of 2 romantic poets.. .

i say 3! i remember Chris saying it is wonderful to having been raised with big bro/sis and a little sister . I guess Des wants more than 2 as well, because she only has Nate.

im still LOL-ingat Chris saying : just wait until she has one when Des said she wants 3-4 children . His humor is the best!

Thank you Norcalgal, it's been so much fun for me getting to see my faves make it so the pleasure was all mine!

From Us Weekly:

And they lived happily ever after! Desiree Hartsock's Bachelorette love story got a storybook ending on Sunday, Jan. 18, when she said "I do" to fiance Chris Siegfried. The couple exchanged vows in a wedding in Palos Verdes, Calif. -- and only the new issue of Us Weekly has all the exclusive details and pictures from their special day.

Hartsock, 28, who got engaged to Siegfried, 29, on the season nine finale of The Bachelorette in May 2013 (it aired three months later in August), gave Us an inside look at the nuptials, including photos of her two dresses, her bridesmaids, and her first dance with her new husband.

The six-page spread also features exclusive details on their vows and their guest list, which boasted several fellow Bachelor Nation stars.

"It's cliche to say," the newlywed Colorado native tells Us of her wedding day, "but it was a dream come true."

For much more on the gorgeous affair -- including tons of pictures from the ceremony and reception, plus reflections from the bride and groom -- pick up the new issue of Us Weekly!

Congrats to Des & Chris!!! ..Love and Affection..can do wonders to a person..They look very happy and very contend! I'm so very happy for them!

[dw_a_mom]

yeah I knew you all would have pictures, even if I had to dig back to find them! So very happy for Des and Chris and a big congrats to the fans who believed they were "it" from the beginning and despite spoilers to the contrary. It looks like it was a lovely wedding! Although I have to confess that Desiree's taste will never be my taste, that is OK; it works for her, and she looked beautiful.
