On August 10, 2024, Duane Carnahan Jr. and Andrea Carnahan reaffirmed their wedding vows. The couple was originally wed in a private ceremony on January 8, 2024. This date has extreme importance for Duane, the date was his late father’s birthday.

Their reaffirming ceremony was held at the Grid Market Place and Brewery decorated beautifully with sunflowers and lilies. Standing at the end of the aisle was a handmade arch made specifically for the ceremony, and handsomely decorated also with sunflowers and lilies. The room’s decorations matched the bride, bridesmaids, and mother of the bride bouquets. 

Their guest book was metal and artfully constructed by Bill Masterpool, heated and bent into the shape of two hanging hearts with a solid metal plate in the center so that it could be signed by all their guests. Later the hearts can be hung on a wall at their home. The metal used was salvaged from items that had memories for Duane. 

Andrea was escorted down the aisle to her waiting husband by her eldest brother, Jeremy Judd. The bride’s maid of honor and bridesmaids all wore full length, off the shoulder, matching white dresses. Andrea’s dress a full-length beautiful charcoal gray. Since Duane and Andrea had been married earlier in the year, they decided to have a “backwards” wedding. She in a gray dress and her wedding party in white dresses, rather than the traditional bride in white. The men all wore gray shorts and matching floral shirts.

Mr. and Mrs. Carnahan said their vows, officiated by Paul Kluever and witnessed by their many familyand friends. Standing with Duane, his younger brother Patrick, served as his best man. Andrea chose to have her best friend, Jolene Coverston, as her bridesmaid. Their floral arrangements were provided by Stargazing Blossoms and Custom Gifts Florists. 

The couple chose a light lunch for their wedding guests, catered by The Market Place and Brewery. Their cake was artfully decorated in sunflowers to also match the rest of the room and flower arrangements. The cake was beautifully made and arranged by Cavanaugh Confections.

Andrea and Duane will continue to make Fallon their home.
