Caroline & Cade

Wedding Party

Anna Stieren

Maid of Honor

"I am the bride's cousin so I met her around the time of my birth. While I can't remember it, I am able to remember the joy of growing up with her for the past two decades. She might technically be my cousin, but Caroline has always been my big sister!"

Seth Moore

Best Man

"I met Cade and Caroline during my first semester at college. Immediately I knew that I had found my lifelong best friends. My claim to fame is setting the two love birds up!"

Kamrynn Richards

Bridesmaid

"I met the bride on freshman orientation night, where we were awkwardly introduced by our moms who already knew each other through work. Turns out, she had lent her baby clothes to me and my sister. We later got to know each other in the cafeteria, at locker hangouts with mutual friends, and in French class. And we've been inseparable ever since!"

Tyler Cowan

Groomsman

"I was enjoying being an only child for almost three years when Cade came along making me a big bro. All I wanted to do the minute he was born was bother him all the time (some things never change). I'm proud to know Cade, proud of the man he's become, and proud of the woman he's choosing to spend the rest of his life with. I knew of Caroline through Cade's stories but officially met her at their graduation in May of 2023. Getting to know her over the last year or so has been awesome! I'm glad to get to call Caroline my future sister-in-law, she will be a great addition to the family."

Isabella Tiu

Bridesmaid

"I met the bride back in 2015, our freshman year of high school. We sat next to each other on the first day of Freshman English Honors, we didn't know anyone else in the class and decided to be partners for an activity. We have been best friends ever since."

Michael Wedemeyer

Groomsman

"I was the new kid in Pagosa in 2016 and got invited to hang with Cade and his friends!"

Billie Fogarty

Bridesmaid

"I met Caroline during freshman year of college on the cross country team, but our coach actually knew we'd be fast friends before we did! He introduced us over the summer, and from that moment on, we were together through thick and thin."

Connor Riss

Groomsman

"I've been blessed to know Caroline since the day we were born. She's been in my corner since the start and I've been in hers (even though I may not always show it). Now she's got a wonderful human being in Cade to join her corner and I think he's a perfect fit. Thankful to be included in their celebration!"

Annika Sutter

Bridesmaid

"I first met Caroline on move-in day at Cornell College. She had left her door open and I was determined to be brave and make a friend, so I walked right in! Throughout college, we spent many hours in French classes, at track practices, and we even went to France together!"

Aaryn Hailpern

Groomsman

"Cade and I met in 2019 at Cornell College during fall camp for football. We lived in the same dorm and during fall camp we spent a lot of time together hanging out with the other freshman football players. During freshman orientation, he and I continued to hang out with each other and solidified our friendship that would last all throughout college until we walked the stage together at graduation."

Cari Pickup

Bridesmaid

"I met Cade and Caroline during my freshman year at Cornell College. We all participated on the track and field team. Caroline and I had taken many classes together which then led to a friendship. Cade and I became great friends the year we became dorm neighbors at school. During that year, we went line dancing and enjoyed many movie/karaoke nights with our roommates and friends. I couldn't be more proud of them and I'm thankful for getting to know them and be a part of their special day!"

Isaak Hahn

Groomsman

"I met Cade during football and he eventually became my son in our fraternity. We dominated a lip sync battle together!"

Madi Stretton

Bridesmaid

"Cade is my older cousin; I met Caroline when we had our puppies in the summer of 2023. They would come over and put the puppies to sleep after playing with them. They were also at my first home track meet cheering me on when my parents were out of town!"
