Wedding Party
Mason
Officiant
I first met Brandon after I transferred to Red Wing High School. We were friends for a year before we realized that we weren’t just friends but also second cousins! After transferring to the University of Minnesota, Jenny and I became close friends. We helped each other through the craziness of school, work, and adulting. I had the pleasure of living with Brandon and Jenny through some of the best years of my life. We shared many laughs, from mine and Jenny’s secret walks to get ice cream, to me and Brandon cooking dinners for the many dinner parties we hosted. I am humbled to have been asked to officiate Brandon and Jenny’s ceremony.

Theo takes his job very seriously.
Brianna
Maid of Honor
Hi, I'm Brianna! I was lucky enough to have Jenny as one of my roommates my first year of college; and she has been my best friend ever since. She is one of the most caring and amazing people I know. I deeply cherish all the memories we have. Then being able to be a part of the life Brandon and her are building together has been nothing less than inspiring. They are the perfect example of the meaning of soul mates. It’s an honor to witness your love; and be apart of your special day.
Josh
Best Man
Hello everyone, my name is Josh! I've known Brandon since I first moved to Red Wing. We got hooked on Dungeons and Dragons, Minecraft, grand strategy games, and podcasts together. I take responsibility for destroying any free time he had to spend on more productive hobbies. I first met Jenny at a swing dancing night and knew these awkward people were meant for each other. It was only shortly after their adoption of Theo that I realized they were already an old married couple. They have been living the perfect domestic partnership for years now, I am proud to be chosen as their best man.
Jamie
Bridesmaid
Hello, my name is Jamie! I'm one of Jenny's sisters, the youngest, and I've shared a large chunk of my life with her. The ups and downs of childhood through teenage years, seeing her grow up and move on in life, feels like it's happened in the blink of an eye. I met Brandon one holiday when she brought him over and the family got to meet him. From seeing how they were then to seeing them now, knowing that they're going to share the rest of their lives together, I can't say I could be any happier. I could tell that they were a perfect fit together and I'm excited to see one of their biggest moments in life happen.
Andy
Groomsman
I’ve known Brandon since we sat next to each other in Mr. Johnson’s third grade class. When not flipping my Vikings beanie down over my eyes, we managed to become good friends and remain so to this day. When I first was introduced to Jenny by Brandon, I was skeptical, but as time went on I saw quickly how wrong I was. Jenny is sweet, kind and thoughtful, and they really are perfect for each other. This couple goes together like Burt Reynolds and moustaches. It’s a cliché, but Brandon and Jenny already are like an old married couple and so I am excited to finally see them tie the knot and make it official. I’ll see you on the big day.
Makayla
Bridesmaid
Hello! I'm Makayla! I met Jenny back in college when we were both going for photography. We then became coworkers and she is still my "Work Wife" to this day. Jenny and Brandon have been together for as long as I've known them and they are so stinkin' cute together! I'm so honored to be a part of their big day and to watch them grow even more as individuals and as a couple
Q
Groomsman
Hello all, I'm Quentin (or just Q). I've know Brandon since middle school and been good friends with him since 8th grade and that friendship carried us both to the University of Minnesota where he met Jenny. At this point, I've been friends with Brandon for 13 years full of board games, RPG's, and several holidays where his outstanding cooking is present. He's not much of a hugger but he is a very sweet guy who I'm lucky to know. I've also been friends with Jenny for 6 years now. From squeezing my moped into a studio at her college for a photoshoot to working together at three separate companies (including our current jobs), Jenny has always been a great coworker, a fun friend, and a warm light to those around her. I've had the wonderful privilege of watching their relationship from the very beginning and seeing them grow stronger together over the years. I'm so happy to be a part of the next phase of their lives together.
Alice
Bridesmaid
Hi I’m Alice! It all started in Mr. Johnson’s 3rd grade class where I met Brandon and a few of the other members of this list. Over the years we would see each other on the play ground and at the library but in early high school is when we became close friends. When Brandon introduced Jenny to me I was very excited for him. As Jenny joined in on our friend group adventures she grew to be a close friend as well.
Mitch
Groomsman
Hi, I'm Mitch. I was first met Jenny through mutual friends back in High school. We were always off on an adventure whenever Jenny could get out of the house. However, it took until college for us to become good friends, both bonding over exploring Minneapolis now with a bit more freedom. It was here where I met Brandon. I wandered into his and Quentin’s dorm room, which was two down from mine, and the pair decided to adopt me and teach me Dungeons and Dragons. That was a mistake they both soon regretted as I've been bothering them every day since. It only took a few months for worlds to collide, sparks to fly, and for Jenny and Brandon to hit it off. It has been an absolute pleasure to watch two of my best friends grow up and fall in love over the years. They are perfect together and I can’t wait to join them in celebrating their journey.
Emily
Bridesmaid
Hi there, I'm Emily! I have known Brandon since the beginning of my high-school years. We share many memories together, and I watched him grow into the awesome person he is today. He introduced Jenny to me when we went out for a fun swing dancing night. As soon as we exchanged snapchats, we've been close ever since. Jenny is amazing, and she means the world to me. Brandon and Jenny bring out the absolute best in each other. What they have is very precious, and it makes me so happy to be a part of their special day.
Kevin
Groomsman
Yo, I'm Kevin. You could say I've known Bran since 3rd Grade in Mr. Johnson's class. My earliest memory of him was going to Fort Snelling and asking his mom for money to buy a cheap paper fan. Otherwise, it'd be 7 years later where we'd truly become friends in high school taking AP classes together, but our love of Paradox video games is truly what brought us closer. Jenny? Met her when I took the group ballroom dancing for one of their earliest dates. Then, we became roommates a couple years later. She has a unique fascination with the dollar section on target for some reason... They're an interesting couple, to say the least. They've lasted this long despite any differences and expect to see a great future ahead of them. I'm excited to see them on their next chapter of their relationship. Congratulations again to the couple!
Rachel
Bridesmaid
Hello, I'm Rachel! I met Brandon in high school when I decided to join the speech team. His group of friends were reluctant to hang out with an eighth grader, but they soon realized how cool I was, and we've all been great friends since! I first met Jenny a few months after her and Brandon started dating, and she fit right into our friend group. It was immediately clear how perfect Brandon and Jenny were for each other. I'm very thankful for both of their friendship and I'm so excited to be a part of their special day!
Tom
Groomsman
Howdy, I'm Tom! I met Brandon in our freshman physics lab at the University of Minnesota. We bonded over a shared love of tabletop gaming and eventually I joined his weekly Dungeons & Dragons group. I've been friends with Brandon and Jenny for years and have had the great pleasure of sharing their company on many a holiday and trivia night. They're the most adorable, domestic couple I've ever met, and I'm so glad I get to share this moment with them!
Dillon & Jocie
Groomsman & Bridesmaid
Dillon and Jocie met Brandon and Jenny freshman year while going to school at the University of Minnesota. Dillon and Brandon both lived in the same dorm and bonded over Game of Thrones and Dungeons and Dragons. They spent most of their time in Brandon's dorm room and Jocie soon became a regular as well. Jocie and Brandon bonded on their stubborn devotion to the right opinion - theirs! Jenny joined the group shortly after as Jocie and Dillon were just more fun than Jenny's other friends. Didn't hurt that the stud Brandon had caught her eye, too. The group continued their nonsense throughout their next three years in Minneapolis, solidifying their friendships til death do we part. They're seriously so obsessed with us they asked us to be in their wedding. We have no idea how we got here. Cheers, I guess!
Nolan & Priya
Usher
Nolan and Priya met Brandon in school at the U of M. When Nolan moved in with Brandon he also met Jenny, and developed a close friendship with both of them. Fast forward a couple years to when Nolan and Priya started dating and Priya became fast friends with Brandon and Jenny at iconic events like Friendsgiving. By the time Brandon and Jenny are married Nolan and Priya will be married for 28 days. Priya and Nolan are both incredibly honored to be a part of Jenny and Bradnon’s special day.
