Wedding Party
Derek Zettel
Best Man
Derek and I met at Minot High School, though we didn't know we'd be friends just yet. It took a terrible Super Bowl, darts, and impersonating Mick Jagger's dancing to truly form a bond. Since then, whether working together, playing 20 year old video games, or getting on the jumbotron at Timberwolves games, Derek and I have always been down to have some stupid fun. 15 years later, we're still keeping each other young at heart.
Joe Davis
Groomsman
While Joe and I had crossed paths a couple times earlier, we really became friends while hanging out in our friend Dan's basement while in college. We formed a short-lived band, wandered the dorms at Minot State University, and had many late night dinners discussing life in our hometown. Joe is one of the kindest and most optimistic people I know, and I walk away from every one of our conversations learning something new.
Cory Hasselstrom
Groomswoman
Our second time meeting, I could already tell Cory was going to be one of my best friends. We launched into a string of jokes like we'd known each other for years, and that's been our style ever since. We share a love of escape rooms, the Science Museum, and true crime shows, and always end up laughing until our faces hurt when we hang out.
Molly Swenson
Matron of Honor
I met Molly when we were randomly assigned as roommates at the University of Minnesota. I walked into her room to introduce myself and basically said, "You'll probably never see me because I am very busy and have enough friends." So, naturally, she is now my best friend and Matron of Honor.
Sarah Merry
Bridesmaid
I met Sarah in college when we were both in a student group for over-achieving nerds. Realizing we lived in the same building, we walked home from meetings once a week and hit it off. Fast forward to now, we remain great friends despite never living in the same city (or even country) at times. She is also responsible for introducing me to our favorite restaurant. RIP, Pig Ate My Pizza. #iykyk
Andrew Bohren
Bridesman
Andrew is my younger brother in years only. He is by far wiser, more mature, and an all-around better human being. Ask every teacher we ever had growing up and they will confirm.
Sam Kam
Officiant
We are so honored to have friend of the couple, and MOH's wife, Sam, officiate our wedding. Sam was a great friend to Kelli before she met Dylan, and now she and Dylan regularly roll their eyes at the ridiculousness of their wives.
