Megan Brooks
Matron of Honor
Megan is Nicole's sweet, fun and fashionable middle sister and amazing mom of three adorable little ones! Megan currently lives in Michigan with her husband Ken, with her little ones - big brother William, middle sister Quinn and littlest sister June. Nicole and Matt are so excited to have the Brooks family in Minnesota to visit and be apart of their special day - and hope they have so much fun they stay forever! :)
Andy Ceminsky
Best Man
Andy is Matt's younger brother and partner in crime since they were little. Andy shares Matt's relaxed and easy going personality, love of cars, fishing and tasty local craft beers. The two even worked at the same company and lived together for many years together after high school. Recently Andy went to school and perused a busy career in welding. Matt and Nicole are very proud of him for achieving this. They are excited for Andy to enjoy some well deserved time away from work and to meet Nicole's big extended family.
Shannon Alexander
Matron of Honor
Shannon is Nicole's caring, creative and organized little sister and new amazing mommy of sweet baby girl Eilish. Shannon and her husband Mike welcomed Eilish in January 2018 and are naturally the best parents. Nicole and Matt couldn't imagine their special day without the super fun Alexander family, especially to keep the dance floor bumping!
Scotty Vongkhamdeng
Best Man
Matt met Scotty during high school when he stopped by Scotty's house and never left. Their similar hobbies including cars, fishing, betting on sports and up north cabin trips to name a few which have brought them even closer over the years. Scotty's amazing cooking skills and new restaurant recommendations have kept them full with very happy bellies as Scotty would say. Scotty's caring, generous and fun personality makes him such an important part to the couple's special day.
Julia Isakson
Bridesmaid
Nicole and Julia met in high school, but became even closer in college attending University of Wisconsin - Stout together. From trips to Julia's family cabin to working at Abercrombie & Fitch for way too expensive clothing discounts to meeting for a drink and a fun local spot, Julia's fun loving personality and love of the best dancing tunes will make the couple's day the best yet!
Nick Gillard
Groomsman
Nick and Matt met at work even though they knew of eachother prior. Nick is often referred to as Matt's other girlfriend. They both share a love of nachos, fishing and hunting trips to the cabin and some good ol’ country music. Nick's fun loving and outgoing personality are sure to contribute to a great wedding day.
Nickie Kraus
Bridesmaid
Nickie and Nicole have been friends since high school and still find time to meet up for a catch up drink, shopping trip or to watch the latest reality tv show. More than likely they will find the other already shopping at Target! Nickie's caring and thoughtful personality has kept her and Nicole's friendship going strong and so special over the years. The couple's special day would not be complete without Nickie by their side.
David Wessman
Groomsman
David and Matt met when they were in the 9th grade. They can always find a way to have a good time whether it be searching for old treasures, shooting guns or playing some wheel of fortune on NES. Although David usually out does Matt in the beard department he thinks he can top him on his wedding day!
Sarah Krier
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Nicole met in high school and became even closer ever since. Sarah's super sweet and giving personality, love of yoga and a good hometown slice of pizza - Nicole couldn't ask for a more compatible friend! Only more pizza love to come the night of the couple's wedding and more fun with Sarah part of the special day!
John Travalent
Groomsman
John and Matt have been friends since high school and have been having fun ever since. From weekend visits to Mankato, getting up early to check out the latest car shows to cabin fishing trips - they both have many great past memories sharing similar hobbies. Only more great memories to come, especially being by the happy couples side on their special day!
Kirby Loahr
Personal Attendant
Kirby and Nicole have been friends since high school and have been laughing together ever since. From being goofy on the softball field to tackling a fun craft project or bonding over our love of cats - Nicole couldn't imagine not having Kirby a part of her special day! The dance floor would not be the same without Kirby and a good song by Seal to dance the night away!
Gina Anderson
Personal Attendant
Gina is the special lady and girlfriend of Groomsman John Travalent and has been the best to hang with Nicole while the guys do their guy things! Gina is so giving, organized and up for anything; Nicole and Gina have had nothing but fun since connecting. Only more fun to come on the upcoming wedding day!
