None other than the future Mayor of Gibsonton, Florida, Lee Stevens and his lovely bride Judy.
Barbara is standing behind the Preacher at right.
I think this is a Jim Peterson picture.

Mornin Buckles, We have just a handful of photos as well. Shaz was just a kid, he videoed the ceromony, but didn't have a tape in the camera! It rained like hell, And I was arrested (not convicted) for illegally being parked on the street with the trailer! But you and Barbara made it all come together for us, as well as the whole cast and staff, Thanks for being there for us. Fondly and sincerely, His honor the Mayor!!

The mayor will be the master of ceremonies at the GRAND OPENING of the new super Wal-Mart in Gibsonton, tomorrow. He will have little Pete(Ward Hall's) dwarf standing beside him. Should be a joyous occasion for the folks of the Gibsonton-Riverview area.

Lee Stevens, congratulations on becoming mayor of Gibsonton. First Clint Eastwood in Carmel, CA then Dave Rawls in Hugo, OK. Best to you and Judy. I remember the old days in Baraboo. If Jim Peterson took the picture it must have been in the big top at CWM.

The wedding took place between shows in Baraboo, the big top was up the hill, Bill and Trudys dog props served at the alter set piece, you can just barely make it out next to buckles, Margerite Michelles hair hang is holding the paper bells overhead, The whole show pitched in to help! July 30th.1985.. Ironically we celebrated our 10th wedding aniversary there While working in the show. Buckles and barbara were our best man and maid of honor. That's the reason for his tux with no elephant! Thanks again! The Honorable Lee Stevens.......

Mornin all.. I don't know who was more nervous Peter or myself. There was so much to do in such short time. June was doing some fast talkin' alright..And convinved the Methodist minister to perform the ceromony, I think it all started at the Mexicali Rose? Judy and I just came to stay for a weekend visit, Each part of the story is a whole story in itself!! But that's what makes our lives and careers so great! We look forward to seeing you guys too...God bless Baraboos'then county clerk, Opal Hinklemeyer?
