Wedding Party

Lauren Orwoll

Matron of Honor

The older sister figure, life warrior and #1 cheerleader. Lauren was the Hart nanny and neighbor growing up, and quickly became part of the family over the years. Most of my obsessions come from something Lauren loved first. Nice teeth, the Lumineers and Kim Crawford to name a few!

Cale Carlin

Best Man

My older brother and the one that showed me what a long-distance-relationship-turned-beautiful-marriage looks like. Cale was always my biggest role model growing up, wanting to be exactly like him - the hockey flow, high school golfer, etc. Everything besides the love of the gophers, which is totally fine with me.

Kala Dalbec

Maid of Honor

A three year college roomie, type A event planner and creativity guru I get to call my best friend. Kala showed me both what a good time, and unconditional care looks like. Often one of my first calls with good new, hard news, and every small moment in between.

Brady Carlin

Best Man

Brady and I can always find something to geek out on - golf & hockey equipment, what club we hit on a random hole during a tournament in 2017, Bulldog hockey. Brady and I can always pick up where we left off, no matter the time in between seeing each other, especially caddying for each other in the Invite.

Dana Brettingen

Bridesmaid

Dana B was my freshman and four year college roomie. If I every need an honest opinion, I know exactly who I am calling. Dana also quickly became a dearly loved member of the Carlin household as she lived with them her final grad year at UMD. Dana is now a frequent flyer of our guest room and there is no one I love to have more as a visitor!

Dan O'Connell

Groomsman

When I left Dan's 7th birthday party for another friend, I didn't think he'd ever forgive me. 20 years later and here we are. Dan and I were inseparable when we became friends in elementary school to a point where the teacher put us on opposite sides of the classroom in 4th grade. I copied everything of Dan's growing up - clothes, shoes, numbers, favorite teams (Go Badgers). Dan became my best friend all those years back and still is to this day.

Emily Janisch

Bridesmaid

Miss Emily Janisch was my first ever college friend. In our first conversation together, we determined that our cousins were married to each other, so naturally, that made us cousins right? Jan has lived everywhere but MN since college graduation which has given us a great excuse for girls trips. While we now live many miles apart, her friendship will forever remain one of my favorites.

Tre Douglas

Groomsman

Crazy how Doug went from my coach in Peewees, to coach in Bantams, to landlord and roommate, to co-coach, all while becoming one of my best friends in that time. Doug and I became so close when we lived together for three years and he still remains my go-to fashion consultant (he buys more clothes and shoes than me). Our NHL games, rides to hockey, and shopping trips is something I'll never forget while living together.

Katessa Archer

Bridesmaid

Katessa Grace is the most determined, strong willed protector of a friend. We met in one of the earlier years of my MN Moose softball career, and she has been one of my longest friends since. Tess was our diva ace of a pitcher who always exceedingly achieves anything she puts her mind to. Tessa was an early predictor of Jace being my future husband.

Tony Tilleson

Groomsman

Tony "Serg" Tilleson became one of my best friends in a short time. You can always bet on Serg and I having a great time together and laughing hysterically whether it's on the golf course, on the hockey rink, or just hanging out. The thing I appreciate most about Serg - you can also always count on him having my back.

Lauren Reimers

Bridesmaid

Lolo and I met on the basketball court in 4th grade. While we spent the first few months of our friendship competing against each other for playing time, we quickly realized we were a dynamite duo both on the court, but more specifically on the diamond. This was the start of one of my most treasured friendships both through our athletic careers, and living cities apart for most of our lives. Many years later, we have finally landed in MPLS suburbs not so far apart!

Connor Hart

Groomsman

I know it's going to be a great time whenever Connor and I are together. Only knowing each other since Kenzie and I have been together, we have plenty of memories to go around. Calling Ubers in Hawaii, Gopher/Badger football games, and ripping up each dance floor we see just to name a few. I appreciate our friendship that has come from Connor becoming my brother-in-law.

Jake Tilleson

Usher

Tilly and I became friends when we won the annual "Grip it and Sip it" golf tournament in 2017. I was a mere teenager trying to win and Tilly was "just trying to have a good time." But over the years since then, I've learned Tilly's lesson of having fun in everything you do. Tilly opened his home up to me and Kenzie when we moved back from Ohio and it was a fantastic few months living with him and Podo and something we'll always cherish.

Ben Podobinski

Usher

Podo and I became close when Kenzie and I moved in with him and Tilly after moving back from Ohio. Working from home and spending lunches together, Podo and I always have something to talk about, especially our love for punk rock music. Win or lose, it's tough to find someone I have more fun with as a cart partner than Podo. Kenzie and Podo also became good friends when we lived together and still are - something I always appreciate.

Briar Carlin

Flower Girl

Remy Carlin

Ring Bearer
