Personal, DIY Spring Wedding in New Albany

Who: Kimberly Webber and Kurt Weigand 

When: May 28, 2022 

The story: In 2017, Kim and Kurt were living in Columbus and upstate New York, respectively, but they didn’t meet on this side of the border. That May, they crossed paths at a Ragnar relay race in Canada and became friends. “A year after that, he told me he wanted to be more than friends,” Kim says, adding that they met in Cleveland for their first date. “After that, we deleted our dating apps and became a couple.” In March 2021, Kurt popped the question while on a hike in Daniel Boone National Forest. 

The details: Family and friends contributed to the wedding in many ways, from designing stationery to playing music for the ceremony to arranging flowers. A mutual friend and race buddy even officiated the couple’s ceremony. The day had a theme centered on stories—both Kim and Kurt’s love story, and the stories of guests (which they were invited to share via Mad Libs-style cards at every place setting).
