Our Wedding

We met at church in the spring of 2023, and began hanging out in a group of friends almost every weekend that summer. We hit it off well from the get go and quickly became decently close.&nbsp; After a year of being close friends, we finally were both on the same page about liking each other, and we started dating at the end of August in 2024.&nbsp; It didn’t take long to realize that we were meant to be together, so marriage was a frequent topic of conversation starting just a couple months into our relationship.&nbsp; After meeting each other’s families during the fall and holiday season, we were in agreement that marriage is the next step.&nbsp;

Our Story

Brandtsen planned a beautiful surprise proposal at the end of January, and the new level of commitment brought us even closer.&nbsp;

The Proposal

We are excited to see all of our closest family and friends at the wedding, and have an amazing weekend celebrating our two lives becoming one.&nbsp;

Forever to go

Wedding Day Please park at the Clear Lake Seventh-Day Adventist Church and you will be shuttled to the ceremony site. 76 20th AveClear Lake, WI 54005 ATTIRE Dress code is summer business casual. For ladies, a nice sundress or church dress is welcome. For gents, good jeans or slacks and a button up is welcome. It will likely be a warm, sunny day in partial shade, so dress accordingly. We just want you to be comfortable. Side note: if you don't want to match the wedding party, avoid olive green. :) TRAVEL We would suggest New Richmond for cheaper hotel options, or if you are traveling in by car. It is about 30 minutes from the wedding site. If you are flying in, there are many hotels near the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, which is just over an hour away from the wedding site.
