Irish eyes were smiling. When Gregg and Stephanie Ries were united in marriage Saturday in front of more than 100 family and friends, his Irish heritage played a prominent role in the ceremony and celebration.
The Irish-themed nuptials, which occurred at Oneota Cabin, included bag pipes, a poem, hand fasting — and of course — a kilt.
“Every clan in Ireland and Scotland had their own special color and pattern of their tartan and coat of arms,” Gregg said.
