Bird, Barbara R. (Marriage - 23 August 1975)
Miss Barbara R. Bird and David G. Boyer were married Saturday, August 23, in
a 1;30 p.m. ceremony performed at Christ Lutheran Church, Chili, by the Rev.

Wildcat Inn.
Presented in marriage by her father, the bride is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Ernest Bird, Rt. 1 Greenwood. Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Boyer, Rt. 1 Chili,
ae the groom’s parents.
For her wedding, the bride wore a traditional white gown with bodice, fitted
sleeves and ruffled hem of Cluny lace. The bib style bodice and cuffs were
accented with a narrow ruffle of matching lace and flower appliques were
scattered over the chapel length train. Tiny pearl-centered daisies bedecked
the lace waistband and bodice of the gown. The bride’s Camelot style crown
with its veil of sheer bridal illusion was bordered in lace and accented
with lace appliques. She carried a round bouquet of blue, green, yellow and
pink roses and carnations with baby’s breath.
Rainbow pastel shades of blue, green, pink and yellow, respectively
fashioned the flounce hemline crepe gowns worn by the bridal attendants.
They carried matching-hued carnation bouquets. Miss Yvonne Knoop was maid of
honor, and Mrs. Richard Bird of Marshfield, Miss Pam Boyer of Chili and Mrs.
Roger Buchholz of Greenwood were the bridesmaids.

Boyer and Dixon Boyer of Chili as groomsmen. Guests were seated by Dennis
Steltenpohl and John Pagenkopf.
Jamie Boyer acted as ring bearer and Miss Amy Steltenpohl, as flower girl.
Special musical selections included “For All We Know,” “The Lod’s Prayer”
and “Wedding Song.”
The bride was honored at prenuptial showers given by Joan Buchholz and
Yvonne Knoop and by Pat Bird and Mary Watson.
A graduate of Neillsville High School and of District One Technical
Institute-Eau Claire, the bride is employed at a bank in Neillsville. Her
