I’ve uploaded around 250 of the best pictures (out of 1,600) that Kara and I took on our honeymoon in Ireland. It was breathtaking. Check them out on my flickr page.

June 2nd Kara and I tied the knot. It was a beautiful ceremony with lots of friends and family there to celebrate with us. Thanks to Andy Johnson and Ron Benefiel who officiated over the ceremony. Kara’s girls looked great in their green dresses and Nathanael was sharp in his tux. My guys and Kala all looked great too. We had a lot of fun before the ceremony taking pictures with our Photographers Brandon and Melissa (bassettphotography.com). They did a great job and made the whole process a lot of fun.

The day began as soon as I got dressed in my tux, I met Kara in the chapel where she gave me my ring, which she had engraved “Life Together 6-2-07.” What a great engraving! She looked stunningly beautiful in her dress, a simple and clean white gown that hung to the floor. It was a great moment. The rest seemed to go by so fast, but it was perfect, everything we had ever hoped it would be. Married life has been good, we’re in the process of moving now. We’ll post some updates on our website www.charleandkara.com as time goes on.

I’ve also got a new name as a part of this whole married thing, Kara and I both have taken the last name Lyons Pardue, so now I’m Charles Parham Lyons Pardue.

ps – if you have photos of the wedding post them on flickr! and let us know about them.
