Mrs. Boyd Garrett Pippin
The July 31 afternoon ceremony was officiated by Rev. Donald Pusson.
Upon entering the church, guests were ushered to their seats by Johnathan Breaux, cousin of the bride and Nick Murphy, cousin of the groom.

Traditional items incorporated into the bride’s ensemble included her wedding dress and veil as something new; her maternal great-grandmother’s rosary, her paternal great aunt and uncle’s old coin sewn in her petticoat, along with a pair of diamond earrings as something old; her mother-in-law’s pearl necklace was something borrowed and the top of her boots was something blue with a sixpence for good luck.
