After a Tennessee wedding trip, the new Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Karl will be making their home on East Seventh Street in Neillsville. 
 

The couple Julie Pfeiffer and Ivan Karl was united in marriage on the early afternoon of Saturday, June 6, at Pine Valley Lutheran Church.  The Rev. Maynard Stokka officiated.
