“Come as you are, Stay as long as you can. We are all family.” That
was the sign that Maren and Duane chose to hang just outside of their
reception hall because, for one day, it really was all about family.
Choosing to marry just before Duane started his tour in Afghanistan,
the loving couple celebrated their nuptials with cupcakes, food trucks
and an abundance of love.
A 100 percent Texan affair, the night kicked off with the exchange of
vows during a riverfront ceremony. Once Maren and Duane had officially
tied the knot, the purpose of the evening got much broader. In
addition to celebrating their love for each other, Maren and Duane
also celebrated the joining of their two families, the new bonds that
would be made as a result, those who contributed their time and effort
to the wedding and the people who will support them during Duane’s
upcoming tour.
Of course there was food the only way Austinites know how to do
food—out of a truck. The burgers and pies kept coming as did the
dancing.
The few remaining dry eyes in the house were quickly wetted during a
heartfelt rendition of “Proud to Be an American.” Holding each other
and surrounded by those who love them most, Maren and Duane began
their new life together in sync.
