Carrie & Tim's Wedding

My sister Carrie married Tim Klinge last weekend on April 25. They got married in Pella at Third Church and had their reception at Grace Fellowship. The weather was beautiful the days before their wedding, but a little rainy on Saturday.
Here is Amber putting candles up at the church.
Here I am at Grace hanging lanterns from the front of the bridal table. Thanks for taking such a lovely picture of me, Scott...
Dad and I at Third waiting patiently for the rehearsal to begin.

Wedding Day!!! They did pictures before the wedding, then we all went downstairs and at a light lunch before the wedding started. Tim is one of 7 kids (5 boys, 2 girls), and had his dad as his best man and his 4 brothers as groomsmen. Lynn and I were bridesmaids, along with 3 of Carrie's friends. All the nieces were in volved in the wedding as well. There were a lot of family members!
Scott's camera has a cool feature that allows you to highlight a certain color in the picture. We thought it would be cool with their red flowers and ties...who knew that Tim's lips were so very red?

Evenhouse family photo:

Carrie wanted the bridesmaids to do a series of "Vogue" photos where we would all strike a pose...I don't know if we look sexy, but we all got the giggles!




Scott and I

Scott didn't have an official role for the wedding (except to take lots of pictures!), so he helped Doug keep track of the nieces after the walked down the aisle, and sat with them at the reception as well. Olivia spent the day with her favorite Uncle Scott!

Carrie is a lab assistant, and Tim is an engineer, so they are both "science nerds." So, instead of lighting a unity candle, they did a "unity experiment." They had 2 clear liquids in the side beakers. And then when they poured the two liquids together...

...the liquid turned purple!


It wasn't raining after the ceremony (it was pretty cold and damp, though!), so Carrie and Tim could ride away to the reception on his motorcycle.

This was their cake topper...very appropriate!

Wedding cake, yum yum!


We know that Tim will truly blend into our family, because shortly after Scott took this next picture Tim smeared the cake all over Carrie's face.
