Posed against a rocky wall, she wore a brown-and-white striped dress and gazed down adoringly at her stomach.
The couple privately tied the knot in 2020, saying 'I do' on top of Aspen Mountain in Colorado after the pandemic forced them to cancel their original wedding plans.
Reflecting on the moment, Emily shared: 'We had to postpone our original wedding date in September 2020 because of Covid.
'I felt as all corona brides have been feeling: angry, sad, gypped, and confused as to when we should have a wedding.

spring
flowers!
