spring April country church Nebraska wedding

Saturday, April 21, 2018

When I first met with Allison, I could see the excitement in her eyes, and I could hear it in her voice. The way she spoke of her future husband told me just how special this day would be. She told me how they’d known each other since high school and how Haydon had always been there for her. She spoke of his caring demeanor and willingness to help anyone, his kindness, his excitement for life. I could not wait to witness her marry her best friend, her soul mate.

After months of anticipation, April 21st finally arrived. It was a chilly morning and rain fell lightly for most of the day. They didn’t mind though, because a week earlier, it was cold and snowy. Plus, they say rain is a symbol of gook luck! They’d been planning and waiting for this day for a whole year; the day of the Husker Spring Game… I mean, their Wedding Day! It’s pretty fitting that in 2017, Haydon proposed on the day of the Spring Game, and exactly a year later they said I Do! Will the 2019 Spring Game bring another surprise? All of the guests certainly hoped so!

Despite the rain, Haydon and Allison’s wedding day was absolutely beautiful. To say these two were excited to celebrate their love is easily the biggest understatement of the year. The moment Allison came down the stairs and saw Haydon, she was all smiles, and as soon as Haydon turned around and saw his beautiful bride, I saw the grin and excitement that describe to me. It was pure bliss.

As the day went on, the excitement and celebration continued to grow. As the newly wed couple exited the ceremony, they released balloons with the most elated expressions on their faces. Along with their lively wedding party, they loaded into a bus and celebrated all the way to reception, where they ended the night celebrating their love with friends and family, good food, and great dancing.

Being a part of this day gave me a glimpse of a love has so much emphasis on laughter, appreciation of life, and passion for each other. Allison and Haydon, being a part of your big day was so much fun. I can’t thank you enough for trusting me to capture every amazing aspect of it, and for including me in your celebration. Cheers!

Much Love,

Gabby
