A 'Duck Dynasty' Wedding!
by Shannon Keirnan"Duck Dynasty" star John Luke Robertson tied the knot over the weekend!
Saturday, teenage Robertson married his fiancee, 19-year-old Mary Kate McEacharn, in what they called "An amazing time!"
His new wife added, "It was one of the best days of my life! It was everything I hoped it would be and more."
The wedding was officiated by Robertson's father, Willie Robertson, who invited a mariachi band to perform before wedding the two.
There were nearly 800 guests in attendance to witness the ceremony, which took place at the Robertson's family farm in West Monroe, LA. Robertson and McEacham exchanged personalized vows with one another.
Afterwards, guests enjoyed a low-key menu including chicken skewers, barbeque shrimp, brisket sliders, tacos and hamburgers, and then a six-tier white cake, while a local band entertained.
Robertson proposed to Eacham eight months ago, at a party to celebrate his 19th birthday.
While 19 may seem young to be marrying, Robertson feels confident in his choice.
"I am so excited to marry my best friend," he said of his engagement. "I know my parents married young as well, and they have always been examples of what ‘could be' to me. Fast-forward 22 years and they are more in love than ever, and I hope Mary Kate and I are the same way in the years to come. God has truly blessed us."
Congratulations!
