Wedding Party

Alexandra Marshall

Bridesmaid

I met Mary Catherine in college while my friend and I were looking for another pair of girls to room with the following year. I knew of MC but had not actually met her until a friend of hers connected us. After that we became fast friends bonding over our love for singing, dancing and all things musical theater. College really brought us close particularly singing together in the church choir! I have just met Paul recently over FaceTime due to us living so far apart but I am so happy for the both of them and can’t wait for their future together.

Chris Rogatzki

Groomsman

Chris and I grew up out in the country and went to the same church. It wasn't until high school that we started hanging out a lot: snowmobiling, fishing (summer and winter), going to brewer games, going to six flags and hunting. We spent most of our time outdoors. One of our funny memories is when we were crappie fishing in Hayward and I broke my fishing pole setting the hook. We have been fishing together on opening day together for many years. I am a Godparent to Chris's son Issac.

Kate Shimel

Bridesmaid

I met Mary Catherine 4 years ago when I helped interview her for our preschool teacher position and soon after became not only her co-worker but also a good friend. A year later, Paul's son Liam was in my 4k class so I first met him as a parent. We worked a few school fundraisers together so I knew he was a good guy and a great match for MC. My husband and I have had many fun nights of double dates and cookouts with the two and look forward to spending many more fun evenings with them as husband and wife.

Jon Shimel

Groomsman

I met Paul and Mary Catherine through my wife. We've had many great evenings of cooking out and enjoying a case of Hamm's.

Elizabeth Young

Bridesmaid

Before I even knew whether I would have a brother or sister who would become Mary Catherine, I was so excited to just have a sibling on the way, possibly even more than our parents! As the years went by, the eight-year age gap between us was challenging; I would be growing out of a phase while she would just be getting into it. Despite the struggles along the way, I wouldn’t change it for the world and am happy to have a sister like her!

Beau Fermanich

Groomsman

Beau and I met in middle school in band class. We were both drummers. We made a pact in middle school to be each others best man at our weddings. We were on the high school golf team together and have golfed together a lot. We have been to many concerts together as well. We also spent a year living together and being roommates. My favorite memory with Beau is going to a Badger game when we were in high school.

Leah Heinzen

Bridesmaid

I am Paul's older sister and Liam's Godmother. I am thankful to have Paul as a brother, we have many good memories together and looking forward to more in the future with Mary Catherine. I am blessed and excited to be a part of Paul and Mary Catherine's special day.

Brad Woller

Groomsman

Brad and I met at work and we still work together. We worked together for about a year or so before we actually started hanging out. We started fishing (summer and winter) and hanging out during rifle season. We've gone to Packer games together, gone to Barley Fest, had Packer and Badger parties. My favorite memory is going to Brad's parents cottage during the summer to relax and have some drinks.
