Wedding Planning Making Your Big Day Match Your Dreams! Summer typically is the most popular time of the year for weddings, especially in Nebraska, where nature’s beauty makes outdoor ceremonies a natural fit. Nothing has been typical about the summer of 2020, though. While there haven’t been as many weddings as usual this summer, there’s actually been even more wedding planning going on than ever before. That has included a lot of shifting of plans, which is booking up wedding venues in late summer, fall, and even a year or two out. Many of the weddings that happened in Omaha this summer were smaller than originally planned, though a slew of brides and grooms planned alternative ceremonies to get hitched on schedule. Others didn’t want to give up their dreams of an extravagant wedding with all their friends and family attending, and they postponed to a year or even two out. Regardless of the unique situation that wedding parties and planners find themselves in this year, there are plenty of local businesses in Omaha that are highly experienced and skillful at putting their version of magic into your wedding plans and associated events. We asked a few local business owners what they offer to enhance wedding plans in the area, and we found companies that provide everything from catering to ceremony and reception venues, desserts, hair design, and accommodations for out-of-town guests—and yes, even luxury restroom rentals! With everything that goes into wedding planning, it’s easy to make restrooms an afterthought, but when you invest so much into a day, getting the details right matters. That’s where Grant Stahla and Stahla Rentals come in. Among other services, Stahla is in the potties-for-parties business, you might say—and we’re not talking about stinky, dark, overheated, run-of-the-mill port-a-potties. Stahla rents luxury restrooms that will have your wedding guests thinking they’re in a Grant Stahla modern, affluent home bathroom. They Stahla Rentals are equipped with everything from air conditioning to Bluetooth sound systems, upscale amenities, and handicap access—and some even have showers and multiple stalls and can serve as a bridal suite for the wedding party to get ready. “We offer wedding parties and their guests dignity and peace of mind,” Grant said. “We all have to use the restroom, so having a private, enclosed space that’s air-conditioned and not smelly is a really big deal. Once you’ve selected the trailer you want on our website, including the number of stalls, and paid your deposit, we do all the rest and we deliver it all and hook things up exactly where you want them. All you have to do it turn it on before the wedding. They’re really perfect for those Nebraska #PrintProudDigitalSmart
weddings that are on the family’s acreage or out in a field in the middle of nowhere.” Their seventh year in business, the summer of 2020 has been quite different for Stahla Rentals, when it comes to their wedding business. “Our business changed dramatically due to COVID-19, as far as what we do for weddings,” Grant said. “Typically, we serve weddings averaging about 175 guests, and this year that average is closer to 40. All is not lost, though, as they’re already looking at double the average number of weddings they’ll be doing in 2021, as weddings postponed this summer are moving to next.
