Lingerie designer weds NBA exec in hippie Hamptons ceremony complete with a Yoko Ono Wish Tree

A wealthy New York City couple had an incredible hippie wedding for the twenty-first century — that is, without that live-off-the-land, anti-consumerism mentality.

Lauren Schwab, 30, co-founder of the lingerie company Negative Underwear, tied the knot with Bobby Webster, an executive with NBA’s Toronto Raptors, in the Hamptons on August 16, and their four-day celebration was the stuff of flower child fairy tales.

Vogue shared details from the extravagant affair, which featured a 'bohemain' rehearsal dinner where guests sat on cushions on the grass at a luxe Hamptons estate, good-vibes crystals in the gift bags, a reggae band playing at the cocktail hour, and a wedding night spent in a Moroccan-themed tent decorated by one of the priciest furniture stores in Manhattan.

Being unique and straying from tradition seemed to be of top importance to the couple, who made it a point to incorporate different forms of art in their wedding. The only elements that seemed to be off-limits for the August weekend were anything normal or conventional. And money, clearly, was no object.

It was important that all of the events felt authentic to each of us individually and to our relationship'It was important that all of the events felt authentic to each of us individually and to our relationship,' Lauren told the fashion magazine. 'We wanted our friends and family, who were traveling from all over — Australia, London, Prague, Hawaii, and California, to name a few — to feel a part of our lives, deeply appreciated, and connect with the other important people in our lives.

'We carefully and thoughtfully designed every component of the wedding to encourage these feelings,' added Lauren, who planned the whole thing with her mom, Lyn Schwab, and wedding planners Duke + Van Deusen.

First, they sent out save-the-dates and invitations that featured a photo of the couple at Burning Man, a festival 'dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance' held once a year in Nevada.

The rehearsal dinner was held at Lauren's parents' waterfront Southampton home, the grounds of which had been transformed to have a 'bohemian feel'.

They opted for a Moroccan theme, where guests sat on multicolor pillows in the grass in front of tables laden with wildflowers.

The menu was designed by the groom with a local catering company, with the cuisine inspired by his childhood in Hawaii.

The mother-of-the-groom, too, offered a unique twist for the night, bringing fresh orchid, pikake, and plumeria leis from Hawaii for guests to wear.

It truly was this Burning Man meets chic Hamptons garden soiree with Hawaiian bonfire and bluegrass music lovefestGift bags were also distributed, which included 'open heart and communication crystals' to help everyone get to know one another and become friends.

The next day, the ceremony and reception were held at LongHouse Reserve, a 16-acre venue that houses extravagant gardens as well as art installations and sculptures by Yoko Ono, Willem de Kooning, Dale Chihuly, and others.

The site alone costs up to $35,000 to rent for the day, and only hosts two weddings a year.

When guests arrived, they were greeted by the sounds of tinkling bells and gongs meant to capture the Zen ambiance of the grounds. Performance artists wearing elaborate butterfly headdresses - reminiscent of Elizabeth Banks's first Effie Trinket costume in The Hunger Games - stepped forward to guide 180 guests to the ceremony.

They came up with the idea for the butterfly performers after Bobby listened to a podcast in which butterflies' transformations were discussed. He thought the idea was a nice symbol for marriage.

There ceremony itself was set up in a circle, with guests sitting all around the couple. Above them was a floating ribbon structure that one guest likened to a dreamcatcher.

The couple's wedding party was uniquely dressed, with women wearing white dresses they'd picked out themselves and the men wearing maile leis. They also had a 'flower boy' who tossed fresh orchids brought in from Hawaii.

Finally, the bride and groom walked toward each other in the center of the circle. Lauren wore a champagne-colored Inbal Dror gown with seven-inch Giambattista Valli platforms, and carried a bouquet of red roses, pink mini dahlias, black calla lilies, magenta scabiosa, and jasmine.

After saying their vows, which they'd written themselves, they walked out to Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine.

'It truly was this Burning Man meets chic Hamptons garden soiree with Hawaiian bonfire and bluegrass music lovefest,' Marissa Vosper, Lauren's friend and business partner, told Vogue.

During the cocktail hour, a reggae band played while the women in the butterfly headdresses danced, eventually ending up doing their performance in a pool.

Nearby was Yoko Ono's Wish Tree, an installation at LongHouse Reserve, on which guests were asked to attach wishes for the bride and groom.

They then picked their seating assignments off Spanish moss hanging from a weeping cherry tree before heading into a tent for the reception, where moving images were being projected onto the white ceiling.

A 13-piece band played the song Wagon Wheel, to which the couple danced their first dance, before Bobby's uncle led all the guests in a banzai toast, a Hawaiian tradition.

'Banzai translates to "10,000 years" in Japanese — and is not to be confused with the miniature bonsai tree! The term is meant as an expression of enthusiasm similar to hurrah and the toast is performed in two parts,' Lauren said.

A New York City catering company eschewed traditional dishes like chicken and steak, instead serving diver scallop cruda with kimchi gastrique, Fuji apples, and ginger puree, balsamic braised short ribs, creamy potatoes, pine nut gremolata, and broccolini.

For dessert, sweets likes cakes and lollipops were passed around to people on the dance floor, while a vegan and gluten-free tiered wedding cake was also served.

By 11pm — when East Hampton’s noise ordinance kicks into effect — the party was nowhere near ready to wind down.

So the couple brought in Quiet Disco, an events company that brought headphones for the guests so they could continue to dance to the music playing only in their ears.

The crowd also wore glow sticks as they snacked on mini cheeseburgers, grilled cheese, and chicken fingers.

When even those after-partiers were ready to get going, the newlyweds retired to their honeymoon suite - which wasn't at a hotel.

Instead, they recreated a 'magical' night they had enjoyed one of their first trips together, to Morocco. In Lauren's parents' yard they set up a tent, and used rugs and other design elements from the high-end NYC store ABC Carpet and Home.
