Let the Introductions Begin!

Mr. & Mrs. Schmader

Saturday night is always a night to remember here at the Wellington. There is always a wonderful event taking place and let me say last night was nothing less than Perfect. From the introductions of the wedding party to the theme song "I'll be there for you" to the introduction of the Bride and Groom to "Sweet Emotions" by Aerosmith this reception started with a bang. All the way through the night the Bride and Groom along with all their guests were very active yet enjoyed every ones company. The DJ Todd Rafter lit up the dance floor with colorful lights and a stream of high energy dancing songs that had guests dancing the whole night. I will have to admit even a few of us here at the Wellington did the Cha Cha dance with the guests and wedding party. The feathers, candlelight, pictures and especially the grooms cake by Aunt Glenda's Cakes an ear of corn representing Nebraska Cornhuskers where the Grooms family is from gave a sense of the bride and grooms hobbies and the love they have for each other. From the setting up to the end of the reception night, I will speak for us here at the Wellington,"We are here for you" and share in all the emotions throughout the planning and fulfilment of your perfect event.

WFHS class of 1955

To those of you, whose souls have parted
the memories remain, and the thoughts are deep-hearted
We've shared laughter and tears...
We've shared good times and fears.
The days have flown by, and turned into years.
We wish you were here, to reminisce the good old times.
Because the absence of you presence,
Weighs heavy on our minds.
The good times and the laughter, will not be quit the same.
And it will seem a little awkward, not even hearing your name.
So to let you know we miss you all...
And the memories still remain.
We honor you tonight our friends...
The Class of '55

Wow! What a wonderful group of classmates. They have kept in touch with one another for 55 years and were all pleased to start planning their next reunion. We can all remember our high school days and let me say they still had their own small battles with one another even after 55 years yet they all came together to celebrate and to have a wonderful time laughing, dancing, and enjoying one anothers friendship. The decorations by Kathy Stovall and Kim Dixon were amazing. They used beautiful red flowers on the tables to set off the school spirit and on Saturday they decorated the ballrooms in mardi gra colors to celebrate their last night for the '55 reunion. The Don Cowan Quintet band played for the evening and had those folks dancing out of their own shoes. Everyone seemed to be having a wonderful evening reminiscing about old times and new. We were so pleased with the entire weekend and were happy all the guests had smiles on their faces when they left.

Diamond's are a Girl's Best Friend

*Courtnye Sikes & Tyler McKnight's Wedding*

From the lanterns that lined the aisle for the ceremony to the beautiful shades of purple & diamonds that decorated many areas in the ballroom for the reception it was a night that will be remembered by many. The food by Javier with The Orchard Catering was exactly what the couple wished for. The DJ Mark Schroeder did a fantastic job with entertainment for the night & had all the guests two stepping around the dance floor. Kathy's Bakery & Deli made a beautiful five tiered brides cake that made the guests gasp in ahh. Lots of laughter & happy tears filled the evening. The wedding party, family, & guests had a fantastic night ending with Karaoke.
