Roses Are Red!

Mr. & Mrs. Folden

From the sweet happy tears that filled the bride's eyes before the ceremony to the smile on her mother's face before she walked her daughter down the aisle made a wonderful impression on how close the mother and the bride are and the bond they share together. Kimberly Southard, the Wedding Planner and Decorator did a fabulous job designing for the bride's thoughts into a vision of red rose's in vases of all shapes and sizes that came together as elegant as ever. From the black and white table runners, to the white Chinese lanterns that hung over the dance floor the Bride, Groom, family, and friends were excited to celebrate their evening together. Kathy's Bakery & Deli did a fabulous job on designing the cake to match the decor of the room. The Bride and Groom stood at the grand doors to their Reception to give each of their guests a hug and to thank each of them for celebrating their wedding. Once again we had the privilege of having DJ Rick Hatcher kick off the night with the music that had guests dancing away. The wedding planner and I did some dancing ourselves to the Cupid Shuffle to teach some of the guest. The photographer Meegan Weever did a wonderful job catching all the memorable moments throughout the night. The Bride and Groom departed through sparklers held by friends and family to a Hummer limo to vanish off into the night together.

*Enchanted*

Mr. & Mrs. Harral

A night of an Enchanted Reception was held on 10/23/10 at the Wellington. The Decor by Two Clever Chicks of white & green pumpkins, the decorated wine barrels, to the grand flower pieces of all colors, & the lighting of romantic candles with a splash of amber gold on the walls gave this Bride & Groom a dream come true. The laughter & smiles by all their guests & the wedding party, to every detail went as perfectly as expected. The DJ Rick Hatcher hatchmobileparty@aol.com did a fabulous job with the entertainment for the reception the excitement on the dance floor never stopped. The Father of the Bride shared many sweet moments with his daughter from the father daughter dance, to making her laugh with all his dancing moves, memories were made that will never be forgotten. The Groom looked at his Bride with amazement in her beautiful gown & when she changed into a cocktail gown her mother surprised her with for more dancing & fun for the evening, everyone was in AHHHHH all over again. Before the clock struck midnight the Bride & Groom departed through the tossing of white sprinkles of confetti by friends & family & off they went to begin a new chapter in their life together.

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.

*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.
