Tim and Caroline
Now, I’m sure some of you have heard of the phrase sliding into his DMs, maybe. But did you know that this girl was one of the first to actually do so? She mustered up the courage and decided she needed to make the first move, sending him the Facebook message that will surely go down in the history books.
“You’re really cute. I like your band” and folks for the first time. We have receipt.
I just kept wondering how many more months will this lovey dovey, mushy honeymoon phase actually last? Well, 142 two months later. It’s still going strong.
Tim and Carolyn, you guys are a perfect match, the perfect hot and cold, the yin and yang. The Moon to the Sun, the kind of match that without the other, you wouldn’t shine. I can’t begin to tell you how honored I am to stand in front of you two today and that, you know, if you ever need anything, I’m right up the street and I’ll be there. No questions asked. I love you both very much, and I could not be more excited for you today.
To Caroline and Tim… to the journey.
Henry and Rachel – Director’s cut
My dear friends, Rachel and Henry, you come together in the special chapel so the Lord might seal and strengthen your love in the presence of your family and friends. God abundantly blessings your love, and now he enriches and strengthens you by special sacrament so that you may assume the duties of marriage and mutual and lasting fidelity.
For Rachel and Henry, begin and end with one another. They connect with easy love and trust and laughter. And Rachel, so beautiful, so poised, so confident and so accomplished in her own right. Rachel is Henry’s rock, his best friend, his cornerstone and his one and only soulmate. And he is hers.
As we reflected on 20 years of friendship, we realize that we’ve known Rachel through quite a few different phases of her life. Tonight, we wanted to take some time to stroll down memory lane.
Conventional wisdom would say you’ve got an older brother, you don’t need to look any further for a role model, they’ll nurture you, guide you through life, teach you right from wrong. Well, whoever said that didn’t have Henry as an older brother.
But I want you to know, Rachel, I’m so proud of you, all of your accomplishments and raising you has been the greatest joy of my life.
To Rachel and Henry, may you always love and laughter in your home every day. May you live long and healthy lives as partners in every way. May nothing but blessings be poured out on you. Congratulations. Love you guys.
I, Henry, take you, Rachel, to be my wife. I, Rachel, take you how to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you, honor you and cherish you. all the days of my life.

Henry’s always been an amazing role model for Kelsey and me. While it’s been easy to admire you, Henry, you’ve been a tough act to follow. Your greatest qualities cannot be learned or taught. You truly have a heart of gold, along with an innate ability to build deep, meaningful relationships.
Rachel would not have turned out to be the friend she is and the way she’ll be without her parents. Nancy, you raised an amazing daughter and has served as a true role model to us all. We know Rachel so grateful for her.
Rachel, I don’t think there’s a better person in the world suited for that job than you. You’re beaming smile. Calm demeanor and endless joy are the perfect remedy. I’ve seen Henry through every season of his life thus far and the best version of him, has emerged with you by his side.
Rachel, take this ring as a sign of my love and fidelity in God’s name and blessed with his spirit. Henry, take this ring as a sign of my love and fidelity in God’s name and blessed with his spirit.
Our celebration is over. Let us go in peace to love and serve the Lord and one another and to celebrate and honor, Mr. and Mrs Henry Joseph, Knott the fourth.
I can’t wait for what the future holds for you two. And I’m excited to be along for the ride. Let us all raise our glasses to a lifetime filled with love, great memories and a lot of laughter. Cheers.
