Wedding Party
Lauryn Kasten
Maid of Honor
Lauryn is Logan's younger sister. She is a student at the University of Wyoming, studying design and business marketing, with an upcoming graduation in May. Lauryn has a hard time pronouncing her "R's" so when she pronounces her name it sounds like "Lorn". This prompted Logan to give her the name " Pork Lorn" which turned into "Pork". We are excited to have Pork at our side!
Robby Graham
Best Man
Robby and Trey are childhood best friends, and a lethal combo when they are together. They have been side by side for much of each other's lives, including the most embarrassing moment of Trey's life. Shout out Rob's mom, Marcia! Robby and his wife Haleigh have two boys, Beau and Gus. Beau and Gus are firecrackers, a joy to be around, and a perfect mix of their parents. A fun fact that most people don't know is that Robby and Trey were the 2023 Cheyenne Country Club Member Member Tournament Champions. Hole-in-ones: Rob - 1, Trey - 0.
Nicole Hixon
Bridesmaid
Nicole and Logan have been best friends for ten plus years. Nicole recently got married in 2023 to her husband Chance. Fun fact, Logan actually introduced the two to each other in high school. Since then, the three of them have been inseparable ever since. Throughout these years they have had lots of fun together: like the time they bought eight dozen French toast sticks and had them delivered to the wrong house, when Nicole used Logan's toothbrush after one too many Jell-o shots, or when they got too bold and rode a bird scooter together and proceeded to crash after going only one block. The stories are endless.
Brick Cegelski
Groomsman
Brick and Trey have been close friends since their college years when Trey was left alone at Brick's house. The two didn't know each other very well, but bonded that day while watching NASCAR. Over the years Brick and Trey have attended countless country music shows together. They both cried when Turnpike made their return at Red Rocks. Brick and his wife Anne live in Sheridan, WY and were married on August 10th, 2024. It's a good time of year to get married.
Lauren (Lola) Renck
Bridesmaid
Lauren and Logan met in college on move in day. They decided after one day together that they were going to dump their current roommates and share a room together instead. Lauren lives in Las Vegas with her boyfriend Erik, and their fur babies. Lauren has always had the strongest love for animals which made for many exciting memories in college and a great bonding moment for her and Logan. While in college they would frequent Rapid City to eat at restaurants. They decided to convince the wait staff they were twins, and that it was their birthday to get free desserts. This turned into them to trying to convince every new person they met that they were twins. It only sometimes worked...
Brandt Pickett
Groomsman
Brandt and Trey got to be friends when they both moved back to Cheyenne after college. They became close over Nebraska athletics and waterfowl hunting. In their early 20s they created the Monday Night Football club which consisted of watching football, eating Papa John's, and drinking Busch Light. Busy lives don't allow that on Mondays any more, but they still enjoy that whenever possible. Brandt and his wife Cassie are fellow civil engineers. Brandt works at WYDOT, and Cassie at the City of Cheyenne. Brandt, Cassie, and Trey all recently got to be involved in a project together. It was an interesting juxtaposition. Brandt and Cassie have two adorable kids, Nora and Ford. Nora and Logan are best friends.
Taylor Ploucha
Bridesmaid
Taylor and Logan met through mutual friends and instantly clicked. Taylor and her husband Vince have 3 little girls; Piper, Sophie, and Quinn. They are the cutest little blondies and iconic queens. Taylor and Logan recently started a walk club that continues to only have two members…them two. Walk club turns into wine club once the sun goes down and has been a great tradition to have girls night every week. If Taylor and Logan had a mantra it would be “Rosé all day”…which I’m sure will be the theme of their friendship for life.
Justin Woods
Groomsman
Justin is always the loudest guy in the room and has been since he and Trey met on the Junior Cowboys Basketball Team in 4th grade. Justin is known for always having a smile on his face and a willingness to give the shirt off his back. When they were kids, Justin and Trey invented the sport of Hay Bale Football, where touch, or maybe tackle, football is played on top of rows of hay bales. It was a blast. Justin and his wife Roxanne live in Cheyenne and have two children, Paisley and Parker. Justin and Roxanne were married on August 9th, and we thank them for allowing us to share their special day with them.
Jack Birky
Bridesman
Jack and Logan also met in college where they had the same major and multiple classes together every year. Jack is a social studies teacher in Omaha, Nebraska. Him and his girlfriend Maison enjoy the simple things life has to offer. Jack and Logan were inseparable in college, they often found themselves in the library between classes. The library turned into a safe haven for them to skip class, eat snacks, and procrastinate on their homework. Jack's college house had an epic basement which allowed for great parties and concerts when Jack was in his rapping phase. Jack and Logan may be miles apart, but they never miss a beat with each other. #streamBNB
Tim Leininger
Groomsman
Tim and Trey met at UNL where they were in the same pledge class in Farmhouse Fraternity. They became fast friends and rarely was one seen without the other. They were notorious for orchestrating watch parties of Husker Football national championships on VHS and became famous at froshes for doing chilly willies. If you know, you know. These days Tim lives in Omaha where he works in the grain market for AGP. Who knows what that even means. They don't get to see each other often any more, but when they do, they fall back into their old ways without skipping a beat.
Gunnar Malm
Officiant
Gunnar is one of Trey's best golfing buddies and is a longtime friend of Logan's family. After Trey and Logan had been dating for only a couple weeks, Gunnar proclaimed he was going to marry them one day. We had to hold him to it. Gunnar is the managing broker at The Property Exchange and our highest vote-getting County Commissioner. Gunnar and his wife Jess welcomed Baby Jude into their family last year. The Jude abides. Full disclosure: Gunnar is only our officiant because Commissioner Thompson was unavailable.
