Zephyr
Best Boy
After PA school, Vivian made a trip to California to visit her family and her friend Ann. Spontaneously, she looked at Craigslist and fell in love with a litter of husky puppies. The very next day, she drove to meet Zephyr and his siblings and immediately fell in love and she went to get the money to come back and get him the next day. A true COVID puppy, Vivian and Zephyr did not leave each other's side and went on many adventures across the country together. He is the bestest boy in Vivian and Luke's life.
Winnie
Best Girl
Shortly after Luke moved in with Vivian, she saw a Facebook post for a litter of rescue husky/malamute puppies. She sent it over to Luke's friends, Alex and Mel, who at the time were also looking to adopt. They fell in love with Koda and did not take much to convince Luke to adopt one of his siblings. Though not blood related, Winnie and Zephyr have grown to love each other and as much as Zephyr loves food, he will share his food with Winnie. She is the goodest girl in Vivian and Luke's life.
Abby Sadler
Best Woman
Vivian first met Abby on a ski trip in Steamboat Springs that Luke had organized for his friends. Overwhelmed, Vivian could not remember anyone's names there. She did remember that Abby had offered to care for Zephyr for the evening so Vivian and Luke could spend more time together. It wasn't until Abby moved back to Denver that her and Vivian discovered their shared passion for Taylor Swift, karaoke, and food.
Walter DeKock
Best Man
Walter lived across the hall from Lucas their freshman years at UW-Madison. They went on to live together in the "Hofbro House" their remaining 4 years of school (victory lap included). Walter enjoys Hamms, Brooklyn, and running. When not being Luke's best man you can find him biking the streets of New York looking for the true best cup of coffee.
Wei Ye
Best Woman
Wei and Vivian met freshman year of high school. They quickly bonded over food and this connected them through the years. During college, when Vivian was back in Colorado, she'd often go over to Wei's place and play board games and try different restaurants. Even now, they'll swap board games at birthdays and have board game nights after trying a new Asian restaurant.
Tom Griesbach
Groomsman
Tom and Luke met at UW-Madison in the Liz Waters dorm where their friendship blossomed. A few years older than the rest; he has often been the voice of reason. He went on to join Luke and Walter residing in the "Hofbro House". Without his leadership rent would never have been paid on time. Rarely seen with shoes but often seen with Luke. If anyone is looking for legal representation in Manitowoc, WI; Tom is your man.
Katelyn Kearney
Bridesmaid
Katelyn and Vivian lived in Kelly Hall together at Drexel University but didn't really get to know each other until they lived in the ASA sorority house. Katelyn was Vivian's travel partner before Luke and have traveled together to Montreal, Norway, and California.
Matt Lupini
Groomsman
Matt and Luke met their sophomore year's of college also in the Liz Waters Dorm. Early on there was a lot of tension because we're both alphas. But over time we realized were both actually sigmas so its all good. Matt enjoys urban planning and his cat, Goliath. Matt is also considering to run for Governor of Wisconsin.
