Coronavirus Wedding Special: Utah Couple Had Guests Listen in Their Car Stereos
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Utah couple Brennan and Abby Norman decided to go on with their wedding and let all their guests watch and listen to them in their cars!
The couple has everything planned and was supposed to tie the knot on April 25. However, after hearing of the closing of schools earlier, they realized that all their plans could not go in vain, so they thought of a different way of celebrating their nuptials.
Brennan told People that they knew that things have to change. They knew that they could not have a reception because when they heard that schools have been shutting down, they knew that social gatherings would not be allowed.
Brennan and Abby Normal had a drive-in wedding in April 10.
Guests were shocked upon learning that the couple planned to have a drive-in wedding in Morgan, Utah. Admittedly, the groom said that they did not know it was possible.
Since the couple could not proceed with their honeymoon and no huge reception will happen, the 21-year-old couple decided to push back their wedding date to April 10.
They picked and set the location on the evening of April 9, as they tried to figure out how to let their guests listen to the ceremony. They prepared everything from the music as the bride walked down the aisle to the couple's vows.
Brennan sought the help of his friend, who puts big Christmas decorations yearly, to help him with lights and sounds. Together with his friend, they went to a local Radio Shack and asked for their help to use an FM transmitter to let their guests listen from their cars by just turning on a specific radio station.
Their guests listened to the wedding ceremony in their car stereos.
Tsering Lazerson, one of Brennan's close friends and one of the attendees, said that their wedding was well organized because there was even a person directing vehicles to their parking spaces.
Lazerson said that everything was "super pretty" because they used an open field as a wedding space where they decorated with a simple set of doors and surrounded them with flowers and used the Rocky Mountains as the backdrop.
Brennan said that what surprised them was the "perfect" weather because that day was super sunny with 65 degrees temperature. He said that in Utah, it is rainy and cold all the time.
They had a simple decoration of a set of doors, flowers, and the Rocky Mountains as the backdrop.
The guests used their phones to capture the special moment and sent their congratulations with a fitting send-off. Lazerson said that instead of clapping, they honked their horns before the couple left.
The couple plans to have a honeymoon and reception once the pandemic is over. Even if everything was prepared in the last-minute, it "exceeded" the couple's hopes, and the best part of it is they did not have to worry about the decorations, feeding their guests, and all the other details. This event could "probably be one of the least stressful weddings ever."
Brennan said that it was very easy because all they did was to show up at 4 o'clock, and Abby had to walk down the aisle to get married in the gorgeous valley that they live.
Lazerson said that this proves that a "super awesome wedding" can still happen despite the requirement to have social distancing.
