The Ford Wedding of 2006


Over 100 relatives and friends attended the wedding of Michael Ford and Alicia Kipikas at St. Patrick's Church in Binghamton, NY on Saturday, June 3, 2006. Many of the same folks participated in a prenuptial party the night before at the home of Terry Louise (Sweeney) Luttrell, and/or the post-nuptial wedding reception in Endicott later on Saturday. Let's meet the wedding party, their families and their company. Our thanks to Jim and Colleen (Sweeney) Ford, parents of the groom, and to Lynn Ann Franklin, wife of Bob Sweeney, for the following pictures. Colleen, Bob and Terry Louise are all siblings; in addition, Sheila McKendrie, Patricia Rose (Sweeney) Lewis, Phil Sweeney, Jim Sweeney and Karen Odock are also siblings to this trio and are pictured below. Yet another brother, Kevin Sweeney, could not make the wedding events.

You can find another 36 photos, all taken by Lynn Ann Franklin, at the Ford Wedding Party. Folks with additional pictures or anecdotes from the wedding are invited to send their materials to Bob Sweeney for posting to this location.
