I translated the following article from Der Carroll Demokrat, a German-language newspaper published in Carroll, Iowa, between about 1874 and 1920. It was originally published on 14 April 1893. Any information in brackets or notes at the end are my own explanations. It reads as follows:

[Reicks-Spieker Wedding]
On Tuesday morning, Bernh. Reicks and Miss Mary Spieker were married at Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church by Rev. Father Nacke. Both persons, the groom as well as the bride, enjoy great popularity among their many friends, who join us in the wish that the young couple may enjoy a long and happy marriage.
