Kimball County Man & Argentinian Woman Meet On Facebook, Get Married Online
Here is a screen shot of the Zoom wedding of Daiana and Jackson Greene of Kimball County. Daiana is seated between her father and aunt (second row, second block) and Jackson is located in the bottom row, last block.
While a world-wide pandemic raged in 2020, towns, cities and countries were shut down and borders were closed. Yet a simple comment on a Facebook photography group from a young woman in Argentina – "I'm bored" – would eventually lead to a connection across continents, an online marriage and her eventual relocation from Argentina to a rural Nebraska community.
It was July 2020 and Argentina was experiencing its longest pandemic shutdown, 10 months. At 1 in the morning, Daiana Congett was simply "bored" and looking for "someone who was awake and that I could talk to."
