Best Man
Brother of the Groom Marc is my younger brother. Growing up together we spent hours honing our baseball skills in our backyard, playing games on Nintendo 64, and playing with our dog Cassie. After he finished high school he joined me by attending NDSU. He joined Alpha Tau Omega fraternity and we continued to make lifelong memories. Marc currently lives in Fort Myers, Florida.
Maid of Honor
Cousin of the Bride Taylor is an incredible young woman! She is my first cousin on my mom’s side- daughter of my uncle and Godfather, Ron Lehti. We’ve grown up together- spending so much time at the cabin, at their log house, with our grandparents, and out in the woods. I used to just play with her, but now she is now truly one of my best friends.
Groomsman
Friend of the Groom Corey and I have been very close friends since our early childhood years in Grafton. We met at Sunday school and continued our friendship through hockey and duck hunting. Corey is famous for hosting bonfires and I attended as many as possible. We still joke about how many times we’ve watched Animal House. Corey is currently living in Minto, ND.
Bridesmaid
Friend of the Bride Erin is a lifelong friend! We met when I started going to her mom’s daycare at the age of three. We were friends all our lives, but we really got close during college. We moved in together at the UVTs and had the time of our lives! During college, we spent every weekend we could at my cabin. We frequently laugh until we cry and I love her for that.
Groomsman
Friend of the Groom Casey and I met when he answered my open challenge to my fraternity house to a game of NCAA Football. We clicked pretty much right away and I was presented with the honor of being Casey’s pledge father. We both really enjoy watching and talking football together- and watching terrible movies. Casey is currently living in Fargo, ND.
Bridesmaid
Friend of the Bride Jess is an incredible friend! We met in 3rd grade when we did a puppet show together. We spent our weekends at each other’s houses, up at the cabin, and playing with animals of any kind. We went on vacations together and were like the sisters neither of us had. We remained close through college and Jess’ many travels. I’m so thankful to call her my friend.
Groomsman
Friend of the Groom Josh was one of the first people I met from the Landscape Architecture program at NDSU. A majority of our college fun came from late nights at Renaissance and Klai Hall, Beer Bust at the American Legion, and starting our annual tradition of Friendsgiving. We enjoy attending Twins games and golfing together. Josh is currently living in Plymouth, MN.
Bridesmaid
Friend of the Bride Andrea is my little firecracker! We met in 7th grade during our boy crazy phases. Andrea, Jess, and I became attached at the hip and did everything together- the vacations, the cabin time, and each of our mothers taking in the extra girls as their own. Even though she now lives near Omaha and I miss seeing her regularly, we are still close and talk on the phone all the time. I cherish all the laughter and tears we’ve shared.
Groomsman
Friend of the Groom Preston and I met through our time in Alpha Tau Omega. We clicked when we figured out that we’re both die-hard Vikings fans. We talk about our Vikings on a weekly basis to this day. He was the first friend of mine to actually meet Misty when we started dating. Preston is currently living in Fargo, ND.
Bridesmaid
Friend of the Bride Hayley was my very first friend! We lived across the street from each other growing up and her mom did daycare for us. We spent every minute possible together. We spent countless hours playing Barbies, rock hunting for agates, and jumping on the trampoline. We were often mistaken for twins because we looked so much alike. We loved that because we were also obsessed with Mary Kate and Ashley! I am thankful for the years of memories we have together.
Usher
Brother of the Bride Chaz is just the best! We are about 5 ½ years apart in age. I loved taking care of him when he was little. He was always so sweet and was willing to do anything for anyone. We played out on the trampoline for hours, played Nintendo and Pokemon constantly, and explored all the barns and woods with our family up north. He went off to college in Chicago, came back to the Twin Cities for a bit, and now lives in Nashville. He is one of my favorite people and I’m so proud of him.
Usher
Friend of the Groom John is another one of my pledge sons from Alpha Tau Omega. John loves sending me fantasy football trades and I enjoy rejecting them. In addition to fantasy football, we enjoy golfing, fishing, board games, and watching sports. He also seems to have really good luck with pull tabs from what I hear. John is currently living in Fargo, ND.
Usher
Friend of the Groom Foss was one of the first guys I met when I joined Alpha Tau Omega in college. We have had a lot of fun at the Bison Turf, floating down the Ottertail River, and rooting on the Twins, Vikings, and Bison. He has always been one of my most generous and loyal friends. Jonathan is currently living in Fargo, ND.
