Wedding Party

There wouldn't be a wedding to celebrate without these people!

Kari Heistad

Maid of Honor

Kari and Shelby met on the first day at St. Olaf. Their friendship is proof that first impressions are not to be trusted!


Erik Nielsen

Best Man

Erik and Donny have been close friends since their freshman year at Luther College. Donny has the pleasure of calling Erik his brother (yes, two brothers named Erik) after Erik and Donny's sister, Annie, married in 2019!

Emily Johnson

Bridesmaid

Shelby's roommate after college turned favorite North Loop neighbor. Emily was a key player in the couple's set-up!


Alex Heiselman

Groomsman

Alex and Donny also met as freshmen at Luther College and have been close ever since. They enjoy nerding out about good books, like Dune, and beating each other up in Super Smash Bros.

Annie Nielsen

Bridesmaid

Annie, little sister of the Groom, used her birthday party as the perfect event to casually introduce Shelby and Donny!


Andy Freeman

Groomsman

Andy and Donny met freshman year at Luther and became fast friends. Andy is the MN sports guru of the friend group, and after college he started globetrotting for work.

Kaelin Porter

Bridesmaid

Chillin' with the bride since elementary school. Going on nine years of long-distance friendship!


Ryan Turnacliff

Groomsman

Ryan and Donny have been close friends and frequent roommates since freshman year of college. Ryan helped Donny get his first job in finance at Venture Bank after Donny spent a grueling year in sales.

Kelsey Jazwinski

Bridesmaid

It's pretty cool when one of your best friends grows up three houses down from yours....


Dustin Hines

Groomsman

Before freshman year even started, Dustin was the first person to ask Donny to hang during preseason football camp. They played Call of Duty Nazi Zombies that night, and they've been friends ever since.

Erik Norlander

Ring Bearer

The younger brother of the groom, affectionately referred to as "Little Erik" or "Bug Erik"


Kelby Goudey

Groomsman

Kelby is the brother of the bride! Yes, their names rhyme. No, they don't want to talk about it. Donny and Kelby have bonded over world history discussions and all things PlayStation 4.

Jasper Gorlander

Dog of Honor

Jasper joined, and took over, Shelby and Donny's life in September 2019! 110 lbs and counting...
