Wedding Party
Sara Solhjem
Matron of Honor
My wonderful younger sister. Dr. Solhjem to be official. She has been with me through it all. She is an amazing wife and mother of three great kids; Emily, Jonathan, and Jacob. She knows all my secrets and has wiped away all the tear and cheered me on through it all. I love her soo much!. And yes, she is very smart. I am very proud of her and my Dad would be too. She is currently a Math Professor at MSUM and teaching student to be math teachers.
Kari Mitchell
Bridesmaid
We technically met at Gustavus. Lived together after Gustavus in Madison, WI and have been great friends ever since. She is my prayer warrior, walking partner, fellow crafter and basically has adopted me into their family.
Karen Chenvert
Bridesmaid
Karen was my sophomore roommate at Gustavus and we've been friends ever since. She supported me through thick and thin, and even let me live in her basement for a few months. We love to cook together and Mat and the girls are great taste testers. Karen has been there for many rough times and listened to many crazy dating stories and I am very blessed to have her stand next to me on this very special and joyful day.
Rachel Hennies
Bridesmaid
Rachel and I played volleyball together at Gustavus. Then we lived together in Edina until Michael stole her away and moved her to St. Louis. Rachel may need to give Tom some advice on how to survive living with me. She is an awesome friend and even though she lives miles away, I can always expect a hour long phone to catch up.
Taylor Tufano
Bridesmaid
Tom's one and only daughter. Senior at ASU. It has been a pleasure getting to know Taylor. She is an intelligent and beautiful young lady and I can't wait to see where she ends up when she graduates in May. The options are endless.

Kari's husband. The Mitchell's are the best. Jason has such a kind heart, very generous, and always willing to help. Many times Jason came over to my townhouse to help fix something or help me move furniture, anything I needed help with. They have always welcomed me as part of their family and I/we am so blessed and thankful to have such great friends. When Tom met them for the first time, he was like you have the best friends. I agree.
