Allison + Brennan • St. Isidore's September Wedding • Columbus, Ne
September 22, 2018
As he stood there in the middle of the crowded ballroom, all eyes on him, he looked at this beautiful daughter on her wedding day, and his new son, a Cowboys fan, thank the Lord! He looked at the two of them, sitting hand in hand at the head table, beaming with joy. The words he spoke next I’ll never forget. They were honest and simple, and quite possibly, the secret to life and the key to a long, happy marriage.
He told them that they’d have good times and they’d have hard times, hopefully more good than bad. Then he looked at them with a glimmer in his eye and told them, “All you need is love… and a puppy!”
To say I’ve heard a more true statement in my life would be a lie. Because let’s be real. Those good times? That puppy is going to love you both. And those hard times? That puppy will love you both even more. Nevertheless, love for each other is important, too, and Allison & Brennan, without a doubt, have a beautiful, deep love.
These high school sweethearts started dating junior year and continued dating all through college. Their love is rooted deeply in friendship, and it shows through in the way they respect each other, the way they laugh together, and in every aspect of their wedding day!
Saturday, September 22nd was the perfect day. It was a bright fall day; not too hot, not too chilly, a soft breeze, and just a touch of yellow in the trees. But what made it more perfect was the fact that it was a day for Allison and Brennan. The girls got their hair and makeup done at Design Team before arriving at the St. Isidore’s Church, and while the girls were busy getting all fancy, the guys were busy being locked out of the school where they were supposed to get ready! Luckily a key was only a phone call and a 10ish minute wait away. The rest of the day went off without a hitch!
Their pure friendship and love truly shone through as they shared their first look, as they said their vows, as they celebrated on the party bus, and as they danced the night away on the most packed dance floor I’ve every seen at a wedding! The day was filled with tears of joy and so much laughter.
Allison and Brennan, thank you! Thank you for honoring me with the opportunity to be a part of your day. It was so filled with beautiful details, beautiful moments, and beautiful people, inside and out! I wish you nothing but love and happiness for the rest of your days, and of course, I hope you get that puppy, Allison!
Much Love,
Gabby

Nina + Tim • Labor Day Wedding in Columbus, Nebraska • The American Legion
September 3, 2018
September 3rd is a special day for the new Golub Family. It all started 25 years earlier, the day Nina decided to make her way into this big beautiful world, the day she was born. Twenty-some years later, that very same day gained new meaning; it became a day that Nina and Tim would celebrate each year, their dating anniversary. Fast two more years and September 3rd has become a day that will never be forgotten in the Golub household. It’s a birthday, it’s a date-iversary, and most importantly, a day to cherish forever and for always, their wedding anniversary.
Now, September 3rd is obviously a very special day for Nina and Tim. But what made this day so special this year was the way they chose to celebrate their marriage. This day was filled with two simple things; their unconditional love for each other, and the people who mean the absolutely world them; their family and their closet friends. These are the people who have supported and loved them in good times, and in hard times, and they, along with their beautiful son, Henry, are so incredibly blessed.
Nina and Tim, I am so thankful to have been a part of such a sincere and beautiful day! The way you love each other, your baby boy, and everyone around you is truly inspiring. I’m wishing you many blessings and a lifetime of love and happiness. Here’s to you, Mr. and Mrs. Golub!
Much Love,
Gabby
