Heidi and Festy are such fun, laid back and creative people. I had such a fun time working with Heidi on the details of the wedding – she had such awesome ideas and willingness to think outside the box.
They had originally wanted to be married out at her grandparent’s farm. However, Nebraska weather is never predictable and she didn’t want to run the risk of inclement weather on her wedding day. (The weather on the wedding day ended up being absolutely BEAUTIFUL – however, the day before the wedding was very COLD with high WINDS). Good thing she chose the movie theater.
Heidi constructed the marriage ceremony herself, highly personalizing every aspect. This was truly a marriage ceremony about Heidi and Festy. Her cousin Heather became ordained and was able to officiate the wedding for the couple. How cool. With a few readings (one being from the Velveteen Rabbit) and a guitar performance, and a hand tying ceremony, and a kiss to seal the deal – it was off to Lincoln to begin the party at Chez Hay. And party is what everyone did.
After dinner and toasts, and an impromptu toast from the father of the bride (not a dry eye in the place) the dancing commenced. Heidi and Festy had QUITE a few close friends (they were really just like family) travel from Chicago to celebrate. You could tell this group knew how to have fun, there was dancing and laughing all night long. You could feel the happiness and excitement in the room.
Thank you Heidi and Festy for letting me be a part of such a special day. I’ll look you up when I am in Chicago next!
