Wedding Party
Ellie Haning (Gunderson)
Maid of Honor
Ellie is my childhood best friend (17 years and counting!) and when I think of growing up, she is in every core memory I have. She has seen and supported me in nearly every season of my life, and I could not be happier to have her be a part of Zachary's and my day. The Gunderson family has been a second family to me, and I've known that Ellie would be my MOH since we were 11
Lauren MacLean
Bridesmaid
Lauren is my high school and college best friend, style inspiration, twin flame, and favorite person to split a bottle of wine with! Lauren can make me laugh like no one else, and one of the only people who can look at me and know *exactly* what I'm thinking. Couldn't live without her
Lauren Trobec (Clark)
Bridesmaid
Lauren is the sister I have always wanted and my brother's biggest flex in life. Lauren is the smartest person I know (that's DR. Clark to you!), the best cook, and has the most generous heart. She has been the best addition to our family, other than Zachary hehe. I can't wait for all of our memories to come!
Faith Boyd
Bridesmaid
Faith and I became fast friends while Zachary was playing hockey in Sioux Falls, SD (2018-2019). Since then, I don't think there has been a single day we haven't gone without speaking to each other. She is one of my biggest supporters, and I'm so grateful to have her next to me on our big day! If Faith ever decides to move to Minnesota, I guarantee we would have a house across the street from each other.
Kat Cardenas
Bridesmaid
Kat and I have been friends since 2022, and have Gustavus and her "mastermind" tendencies to thank for our friendship. Kat is my biggest cheerleader and is known for her positive energy, her infectious laugh, and innate ability to make everyone around her feel special. Kat is the busiest, most organized, and involved person I know in everything she does, and if I could afford her rates, I probably would have asked her to plan this wedding ;)
Brandon Dornfeld
Best Man
Brandon is my brother and best man for everything in life. There were times growing up that I would have argued differently (e.g., the pumpkin pie incident of 2013), but we've put that behind us. Brandon loves fishing. We see him at the cabin more than we see him at home, and his muskie lure wall in the basement is probably worth a small fortune. He loves sharing his passion for fishing and helped me land my first musky two summers ago. Most likely to have skipped this wedding if it landed on Muskie opener...we planned accordingly.
Evan Foss
Groomsman
Evan (and twin Andrew) are my oldest friends, and we spent many years playing hockey together, giving our moms countless headaches, and needing a few stitches between the two of us. We lived together during my years at MSU, and I'm pretty sure he logged as many hours in the library as he did playing Rocket League. Voted most likely to order a Mic Golden no matter the function and educate you on Bingham Plastics.
Andrew Foss
Groomsman
Andrew is one of my childhood best friends, and gets the bragging rights of knowing me 2 minutes longer than Evan. Andrew, Evan and I have all of our core memories together and made a lot more while living together in college. There were many sleepovers at the Foss house growing up but Andrew loved to sleep in, and I did not, which meant a few couch pillows woke him up on several occasions. Most likely to have his door removed.
Reed Tischler
Groomsman
Reed is one of my best friends who I have known all my life, and our friendship only got stronger after living together in college. We spent all of our summers growing up playing hockey together. Reed is always down for anything, from a last-minute hunting trip to lunch with no notice; he's there. Voted most likely to: end up having more cats than Cait
Cullen Trobec
Groomsman
Cullen is my future brother-in-law, whose role in our wedding is twofold: groomsman and officiant. Needless to say, he has been busy, and Caitlin and I are so grateful for the support he's given us during this process. I am honored to gain another brother and look forward to our memories to come. Most likely to be as involved with the wedding as Cait and I...we owe him big time.
