Down the Aisle: Kara + Kevin
/Kara & Kevin's wedding was Off. The. Hook. Simply incredible. Highlights included:
- balloon animals and a clown in the "Kids Suite" (complete with coloring books, snacks, and more)
- professional face painting
- live band (D*Funk)
- 8ft tall cake (I'm just guessing at the height, check out the photos below and see if you can tell for yourself!)
- 850 really, really, great guests (we had so much fun with them all!)
Hats off to everyone who helped make the day such an incredible success! Including Stem Gallery, Lincoln Cake Lady, A Sound Impression, Lazlo's Brewery & Grill, D*Funk, everyone at the Grand Manse, and the wondrous Nicole Battelle!
Ready for some eye-candy!?
Just in case you missed the cake in the collage above... here it is—again. (It's that incredible!) Seriously... don't you think 8ft? I'm using my height as a guide. At 5'4", I'm guesstimating that if I had climbed on the table and stood next to it, it would've been about 2.5 ft. over my head...
The reception was held at Lincoln's historic Grand Manse. And when I say "at the Grand Manse," I'm not just talking about the Jasmine Room. The festivities were spread throughout the entire building (even spilling over into the Pavillion for some of the fun). Thankfully they provided maps to help people find their way around!
What a great couple! Kara's laid back attitude was so wonderful to work with, and Kevin? He's such a good soul. Emir and I had so much fun making ourselves part of their extended family for the day!
It has to be said that D*Funk KILLED IT. I mean, holy heck. I'm so glad to call them Lincoln's own! :) Talk about soul!!?!
Maria!!! I love watching her and the whole band completely own it. HOT!
Kara's mom Debbie—so cute!
So—that was the party. Wow! :) Previously... there actually was a whole wedding ceremony too, as you might imagine. :)
Curtis (from Stem Gallery) made this incredible "purse" for one of the flower girls. It smelled divine!
You know I love the Grandpas...
Emir and I are so truly honored to have been invited to be part of this historic event. What a great group of people—big hugs to you all!
