It hasn't happened yet but I'm very sure it will. Kevin and Becky are due to be married this afternoon in La Jolla, Ca. In sort of an elopement wedding. Not sure who is going to be there but it could be no one. They are excited and so are we. They are seriously planning to be sealed in a temple as soon as they can. Both of them have been divorced after being sealed to their previous spouses and both have children from their previous marriage so there are complications but with the help of church leaders I believe things will be worked out. And, we will make every attempt to be there whenever they are sealed.

Come Follow Me 

D&C 132:46 And verily, verily, I say unto you, that whatsoever you seal on earth shall be sealed in heaven; and whatsoever you bind on earth, in my name and by my word, saith the Lord, it shall be eternally bound in the heavens; and whosesoever sins you remit on earth shall be remitted eternally in the heavens; and whosesoever sins you retain on earth shall be retained in heaven.

"The vicarious ordinances we perform in temples, beginning with baptism, make possible an eternal welding link between generations that fulfills the purpose of the earth’s creation. Without this, “the whole earth would be utterly wasted at [Christ’s] coming.”  Elijah has, in fact, come as promised to confer the priesthood power that turns hearts and establishes the welding links between the fathers and the children so that once again what is bound on earth “shall be bound in heaven.”
