Wedding Party
Anna Meyer
Bride
Anna grew up in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, the youngest of 8 siblings. She worked at her family's ministry Truth Tabernacle doing publication editing. She met Connar through match.com after only two months of online dating.
Connar Grimley
Groom
Connar grew up in Maple Grove, Minnesota, youngest of 2 children. Connar moved to Madison after getting a job working at Epic as a developer writing software for hospitals. Connar met Anna through match.com after two years of online dating.
Jayne Beresford
Maid of Honor
Sibling number 6: besides growing up together, we were long-time roommates who had a lot of similar interests and shared countless cups of coffee with conversations of things that do and don't matter. Over the years, we experienced a lot of life together.
Erick Vertein
Best Man
Connar met Erick at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church back in 2015. We've gone on multiple trips together, including Alaska, Colorado, Shenandoah National Park, Iceland, and Scotland.
Victoria Liljander
Bridesmaid
Sibling number seven: we were those two shy introverted kids who tucked ourselves away from crowds. We shared many ridiculous songwriting sessions while playing games and cooking together. She's been one of my go-to's for both advice and absurd discussions.
Ben Bramble
Groomsman
Connar met Ben through Epic. We started together in June 2014 and were officemates for a couple years. Ben left Epic, but after all these years we've stayed in touch and have been good gaming buds.
Leah Meyer
Bridesmaid
My sister-in-law: it just so happened that my brother married one of my best friends! We knew each other as teenagers through a circle of mutual friends. Through the years, we've traveled together, plotted (or planned) events together, laughed together, and cried together.
Micah Heyer
Groomsman
Micah also started at Epic with Connar and Ben in June 2014. We are currently officemates and have been officemates off and on for the past 9 years at Epic. We have been to Finland together and we also bowl in a bowling league.
Alyssa Calame-Childs
Bridesmaid
A friend who's like a sister. We met about five years ago and learned how much we have in common, from our love of tea, anything Jane Austen, classic movies, and just having long fun chats.
Jacob Kastner
Groomsman
Jacob and I met through Our Redeemer Lutheran Church. We were in a TNT (twenties and thirties) group at church, and Jacob also happens to work at Epic. We've gone camping together and enjoy some online games.
