Love, Honor, and Cherish

On July 5, 1953, Maynard Ernest Johnson and Ellen Marie Johnson (yes, that was her maiden name too) took the vows to begin their marriage.

And 60 years later, many family and friends came together to mirror that love.  Here are some scenes from the celebration, by photographers Amy Dahlhoff and Chelsey Johnson.

The happy couple

The original wedding party is still complete!  Arlon Johnson was Best Man, and Millie Horsman was Maid of Honor (her husband Neil is also seated)
