Kevin & Amy’s Wedding

Final Edition

 

Details, Oh, the Details

 

 

A pretty, simple veil

 

 

Cindy, the wedding photographer did a great job of setting up shots.

 

 

Another talented photographer, Linnea Martin took family photos for Amy’s sisters.

 

 

Something came undone with Regan’s tux.

 

 

Mint tea at the photo shoot – provided on a pretty table setting by Bernice.

 

 

Time for another Smartie from Daddy to keep Kelci in a photogenic mood.

 

 

It wasn’t always easy to keep the gown off the wet grass

 

 

Nails that pleased little girls…

 

 

 …and bigger girls!

 

 

Cute hair designs for the girls.

 

 

 

 

Someone must take care of technology – Charlene and Earl review the taped wedding music.

 

 

The church was beautifully decorated.

 

 

How did all these pretty flowers arrive at the church?

 

 

 

 

I think I found someone (Sharon Hess) who had something to do with that!

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

I

 

 

 

 

Someone was responsible for pretty, well-placed candles

 

 

Cute sign-in sheets.

 

 

Guest Registrar – Sherry Groff (right) watches as Melanie Stoltzfus uses one of the pretty (black or purple) glitter pens.

 

 

Guest Registrar – Laura Fahnestock looks on as her Grandma Hershey signs in.  (She is also Amy’s grandma.)

 

 

Kim Groff (right),  a very organized, gifted Wedding Coordinator, making sure Shawn and Cheryl Stoner’s flowers look good.

 

 

Following the ceremony, Cheryl and Shawn served punch outside the church’s main entrance.

 

 

  

 

 

So many details!  No wonder Amy appreciated a shoulder massage between the ceremony and reception.

 

 

But before the reception, Kevin’s sister Melanie makes sure he knows how to drive her car – “The Love Bug”

 

 

I have a feeling her family had something to do with the cute license plate.

 

 

Then there was the sign in the back window designed by Colby Hampton.

 

 

Speaking of the reception.  My sister-in-law (Amy’s aunt) Brenda Hershey, began preparation for the wedding meal  long before the ceremony started.

 

 

It took more than one person to prepare and place these salads on the tables.

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

Now that the ceremony is over, how do we get all these people to the reception?

 

 

Emcee Ken Hampton (brother-in-law of Kevin) gave us that information when the timing was just right.

 

 

Jordan Rohrer, Allison Stoltzfus, and Emily Stoltzfus.

When we got to the Fellowship Hall door, there were capable helpers who gave us our table number.

 

 

When the fellowship hall was full…

 

 

…kitchen helpers quickly dished up delicious meals.

 

 

 

 

Gourmet potatoes, peas and carrots, a watermelon slice (each prepared in the kitchen) – also pork that had been roasted by Dean and Carole Ziegler owners of Country Home Caterers.

 

 

The servers had time to eat when we were finished.

 

 

The kitchen crew enjoyed their meal when the reception was over.  Our daughter-in-law Chris (right) skillfully coordinates the transfer of food from the kitchen – to the servers – to the guests.

 

 

As we were leaving the church, I found Marian Sensenich cleaning front door windows so they would be clean for church the next day.

Like I said in the heading – “Details, Oh, the Details. 

 

 

Amy and Kevin had much to smile about at the end of the day.
