Leanne & Brandon

Wedding Party

We would not be the people we are today without the family and friends who have shaped us. Let us introduce some of the key people who will be honored on the wedding day.

Katie Wechlo

Maid of Honor

Katie has been a staple in Leanne's life since they were sixteen. After college, Leanne convinced Katie to move to Florida to become roommates. They made countless memories living together. Katie witnesses Leanne's dating life and ultimately her meeting Brandon. She got a front row seat to their love story and they are so happy she is standing here today for yet another milestone. Katie and Leanne would both say they feel more like sisters than friends and wouldn't have it any other way.

Jessica Burdick

Best Woman

Jess is Brandon's, older and wiser, sister. Like any siblings they have had stages in life where they got on each others nerves, but as time went on they became very close. They often confide in one another and seek out the other for advice. Jessica is a pure soul and Leanne feel's grateful to gain her as a sister-in-law. Brandon was the witness to her marriage and he is honored to have her standing next to him in his.

Rebecca Shoemaker

Bridesmaid

Rebecca, known as Becca by most, and Leanne attended the University of Tampa together. They started as acquaintances but friendship quickly grew over interests of days by the pool in the Florida sunshine, live music, breweries and of course, dogs. Leanne relies on Becca for her accountability for mental and physical wellness. They haven't lived near each other in several years but always make effort to visit one another. When they do it feels like no time as passed at all. Leanne is grateful to have her by her side today in this next chapter of life.

Brian Howell

Groomsman

Brian in Brandon's uncle, but even more so, a friend. Brian entrusted Brandon with the honor of being the Godfather to his daughter, Gwen. The two of them enjoy trading stories on how big the fish are that they catch. They share a love for a nice cigar and Chicago Bears football.

Allison Niles

Bridesmaid

Allison and Leanne met day 1 of college and have been close ever since. There is never a dull moment when these two get together. These two kindred spirits bring out the inner child in one another. Allison is a creative individual with many hobbies and talents. She has taught Leanne to find the joy in things you enjoy and not take life too seriously.

Joey Hutchinson

Groomsman

Brandon and Joey are cousins on the Hahn side. Both grew up in the Florida sun and now reside in the Midwest. Brandon admires Joey's authenticity and trueness to himself. Both have served in the U.S. military and have a special bond. Brandon is glad to have Joey here on this day.

Marissa Larkin

Bridesmaid

Marissa and Leanne met at a birthday party in 2018 over an intense game of Boom-cup. The bond grew even stronger when their dogs became best friends too. Marissa is reliable and passionate. They often enjoy being out in nature, listening to Cali-Reggae and having lengthy conversations over coffee. Living on opposite sides of the country has not hindered their friendship but encouraged more road trip vacations.

Ben Zindler

Groomsman

Ben and Brandon were introduced when Leanne and Brandon moved up to Wisconsin in 2021. Ben was a part of the high school friend group that Leanne refers to as her "Falls Friends". Ben and Brandon hit off a bromance with similarities in what they like to do and having a jokester mentality. Brandon is proud to have Ben by his side on this special day.
