Mikerra & Hunter
Our People
Katey Milbrandt
Maid of Honor
Katey.. you'll hear her before you see her! As the sister of the bride, she has been by Mikerra's side through thick and thin. She is loud, she's hilarious, and let's be honest - just a little bit wild. She's the one who makes everyone laugh and keeps everyone on their toes. One of our favorite memories with Katey is the countless games, haircuts, and injuries during covid when we got to spend more time together.
Jaret Lalli
Co-Best Man
Jaret has been a friend of the bride and groom for years! Whether he asked for it or not, he somehow manages to be the groom's best friend, boss, and part-time life coach. Jaret's the kind of guy who will keep you humble yet also hypes you up like no other! This makes him the perfect addition to the party.
Heather Olson
Bridesmaid
Heather is not only the other sister of the groom, but one of his fiercest cheerleaders! Heather has a heart full of love.. with a sassy spark.. and she's the kind of person that always has your back! (Even if you might actually be wrong.) We love thinking back on our memories with Heather over the years, one of our favorites being her impersonation of Mr. Krabs.
Mason Plante
Co-Best Man
Mason was one of Hunter's college roommates at Concordia! Over the last few years, he's become more than just a roommate. He is a best friend, a constant comedic relief, and one of the most genuine people we know. He is always the first to make you laugh and the first to check in when things get real.
Hanna Zuehlke
Bridesmaid
Who better to stand by our side than the older sister? Hanna is Hunter's older sister. She has been someone we both feel we can count on. The one that shows up rain or shine and knows how to solve all the problems. Not only is she the one you'll find tearing up the wedding dance floor, she's the one that also used to sneak through and read all of our love letters in high school.
Bazil Zuehlke
Groomsman
Brother-in-law of Hunter, Bazil is a true jack of all trades. He's the type of guy you call when you need help, unless you need things to stay in one piece.. Beyond his accidental destruction, he's been a great brother figure - loyal, dependable, and always there when it counts! If you're lucky, you may see him perform Ice Ice Baby.
Rumer Flatness
Bridesmaid
Rumer is a longtime friend of the bride and groom. She has been cheering on this love story since before it started! She gave Hunter that little (or maybe not so little) nudge to finally ask Mikerra out. Without her *little* nudges, who knows where we'd be today? We are so thankful for our matchmaking friend!
Nick Mannausau
Groomsman
Nick and Hunter go way back - they have been great friends since childhood! Whether it was playing hockey, video games, or getting into harmless trouble.. the memories are priceless. Hunter used to spend days on end at Nick's house and at one point could have been known as the fourth Mannausau boy.
Macy Flatness
Bridesmaid
Macy's story with us starts when she originally had a crush on Hunter. But don't worry, she's since become one of our biggest supporters! Macy is always down for a good time and brings her vibrant energy wherever she goes. We are so thankful for her fun-loving and loyal self.
Braden Costello
Groomsman
Braden was Hunter's college roommate, gaming partner, and living proof that Webkinz love never dies. Whether he was playing hockey, dominating Hunter in video games, or just being his usual hype self - Braden's got that dog in him! He is a great friend and someone that makes everyone laugh.
Isabel Majewski
Bridesmaid
Isabel is that friend that knows you so well it just feels like she has always been around.. but literally.. she third wheeled us a lot. We are so thankful for Iz and all of her support over the years. We do wish she would transfer a little more support to her ankles as Hunter has had to pick her up after multiple sprains. But Iz never fails to turn a simple outing into one of our favorite memories.. we're sure our wedding day will follow suit!
Zak Justice
Groomsman
Zak is a childhood best friend of both the bride and the groom! He's been there through scraped knees, missing teeth, school dances, and everything in between. Zak is the kind of friend who shows up and always knows when to cast the right line - in fishing and in life.
Jodi Lipp
Bridesmaid
Jodi and Mikerra were friends at first sight. By that we mean, they met and never looked back. Immediately started planning each other's weddings, lives, and future families. Jodi is the ultimate friend - always ready for a walk or whatever you throw at her. And when it's time for tequila, you already know she has the salt and lime ready.
Broc Waldhausen
Groomsman
Broc was a longtime teammate of the groom and an even better friend! When Broc sets his mind to something, he delivers.. like the time they forced him into maxing on bench press at midnight in the Nymore Rink. As a teammate and a friend, Broc always shows up and never lets you down.
Ashley Hirt
Personal Attendant
Work friend gone wild! Ashley works at State Farm with Mikerra and has quickly become so much more than a coworker! She is the type of person everyone wants to be friends with, knows how to have a good time, and gives the best advice. If she isn't seen on the dance floor, please check her pulse.
Reid Colley
Usher
Some friends bring wine, some bring advice, but Reid brought a dog. (He recently gifted us our handsome pup, Flex.) Reid has been around since childhood - always stirring up brilliant ideas with the groom, like wild dirt bike adventures. But don’t worry, he traded in the bike and his dog-delivery duties to help usher you to your seat!
Kenzie Oelkers
Personal Attendant
Kenzie is that friend that knows how to make every moment more fun. She also knows how to bring out the best in people and has been a great friend to both of us the last few years. Kenzie will without a doubt be seen rocking the dance floor and forcing others to dance with her.
Jack Westlund
Usher
Jack is a Concordia Hockey teammate that quickly turned into a good friend of the groom! He is always ready for a good time, brings great energy, and is the kind of friend you're just lucky to have around. Whether it's rallying for a good time with the boys or helping the bride escape a questionable park job, Jack has been there!
Noah Boser
Usher
Noah has become a good friend of the bride and groom over the last couple years. One of their favorite things to do together is make fun of Heather. But when Noah isn't doing that, he's hitting dingers for the Billygoats! (We know that sounds made up.. but we promise he has hit a dinger before.) Beyond his fun and witty side, he is a great guy who has become an important part of the family!
Hanson O'Leary
Usher
Every groom needs that one friend who keeps things interesting—and for Hunter, that’s Hanson. They played college hockey together, but the stories that came off the ice are the real highlights. Hailing from the wilds of the 218, Hanson brings just the right amount of Northland crazy, an unshakable love for Coors beer, and (arguably) the best mustache at this wedding. Follow him to your seat—he’s got the ’stache, he’s got the swagger, and trust us, he knows where he’s going…probably.
Zuehlke Kiddos
Flower Girls and Ring Bearer
Every wedding needs a little extra charm, and for Mikerra and Hunter, that comes in the form of their adorable nieces and nephew. Stealing hearts (and probably a few snacks from the reception), Myla, Marlie, and Mariano are the proud flower girls and ring bearer for the wedding! These three have been the stars of family gatherings for years, so naturally, they were the perfect choice to lead the way down the aisle. Whether the petals land perfectly or not, and whether the rings make it up there without a detour, one thing’s for sure—they’re going to look way cuter doing it than anyone else.
