Captain Lincoln Connell, son of Brian and Stephanie Connell, of Norwood, married Ashley Sherry, daughter of Robert and Jackie Sherry, of Tucson, Ariz., on April 24, 2021 at The Bibb Mill Event Center in Columbus, Ga. The formal military ceremony was officiated by Tim Allen, of Warrenton, Mo. The ceremony was followed by a reception in the same venue with a lovely dinner, open bar and dancing. The couple were formally introduced through a saber arch of Army officers. Ashley’s Maid of Honor was Kaitlyn DiMarco. Bridesmaids were Nicolette Joyner and Alyssa Rosdahl.

Junior bridesmaids were Lincoln’s cousins Emma and Hanna Spencer. Lincoln’s Best Man was 1st Lt. Chandler Connell, the brother of the groom, but was unable to attend because he is stationed in Okinawa, Japan with the US Marine Corps. CPT Thomas Joyner stood in as Best Man and other  Groomsmen were CPT Levi Rosdahl and CPT Jon Alexander. All three graduated with Lincoln from West Point. The Junior Groomsmen were Ashley’s nephews, Sammy Sherry and Manny Rodriguez. The flower girl was River Rewis.

The bride wore a stunning gown designed by Stella York with fitted bodice, full skirt, a flowing train and veil. The bridesmaid’s dresses were lavender, each a little different in style, and the groomsmen all wore their Army uniforms.

Captain and Mrs. Connell plan to honeymoon in England when his Army schedule will allow.
