THE CHURCH
Our ceremony took place at Kristen's "mom-mom's" (McMillen) church in Watsontown, PA. This church holds a lot of meaning for Kristen's family. Her "Mom-Mom" has been a member of the church for 55 years and her mom and dad were married there. It means alot to us that we were married in a place that carries such strong family ties.We were married by the Rev. Douglas Eberley. Solo's were performed by our friend, Jen Wilson, as well as Kristen's brother, David. The processional included a special arrangement of "Simple Gifts." Other special touches included the lighting of the "Memorial Candle" in memory of Kristen's father, a special solo, "I Will Be Here," that was performed by David, during the lighting of the unity candle and readings by Kristen's brother, Brent, and sister-in-laws, Angie and Leslie.
