Lauren & Michael
Our People
Lindsey Lanigan
Maid of Honor
As the saying goes, "first is the worst, second is the best". Same rules apply here. From the childhood fights over hairbrushes to the nights we still shouldn't tell our parents about in college to my favorite U of M colleague and lunch companion, the memories are endless.
Mason Deibert
Best Man
First words spoken between us... "Ryan Braun sucks" Immediate friendship. Now we can agree on Ryan Braun, but it was contentious back then.
Kelly Lanigan
Maid of Honor
Easily the most charming of the Lanigan sisters. The baby of the family and the life of the party. She's always there for you with a well timed punch line and waiting in the wings to a lead a dinner prayer. Kelly graciously took on a minor in wedding planning in her last semester and for that she deserves one more beer.
Logan Wiley
Groomsman
Logan was my Resident Assistant in Johnson Hall at The University of Wisconsin River Falls. That sounds far more wholesome than it really is.
Molly Bond
Bridesmaid
I never thought I could possibly want another sister but then I met Molly. Honestly she might be better than the other ones. I knew she'd let Michael keep me around when she didn't haze me at my first Peterson family holiday.
Jade Bond
Groomsman
Nothing beats staying up way too late enjoying one more beer, even if it is 3 hours after the rest of the family went to bed.
Ali Facklam
Bridesmaid
My second favorite Wisconsinite! We go back to our Concordia days and honestly I think I scared her into being friends with me. Her misfortune was my gain.
Ben Kampa
Groomsman
While our favorite sports differ. #puckguy vs. #ballguy. There is really only one correct answer.
Andrea Filter
Bridesmaid
She'll chug your beer, smash her phone and probably split her dress in the same sentence. Truly the wildest friendship I've ever had but I wouldn't trade it for anything. If you ever find yourself in London, she's your gal.
Sam Zuleger
Officiant
A true friend, champion of our relationship, neighbor and honorary Lanigan! We couldn't think of a better person to marry us.
