Wedding Party

Alyson Martinez
Alyson Martinez - Matron of Honor
Aly is Bri's older sister. They are similar, yet so different, all at the same time. They are best friends and bond over their love for books, their animals, and their dark sense of humor.
Clayton Meinders
Clayton Meinders - Best Man
Clay is Caleb’s older brother and Best Man. They met at a very young age and have been inseparable since. Brothers to teammates to roommates to coworkers… the list could go on! Caleb’s favorite memory with Clay was when they were forced to hold hands at the end of the driveway for fighting on one of the busiest weekends of the year. It is safe to say they haven’t fought since (thanks Mom and Dad)!
Kelli Meinders
Kelli Meinders - Bridesmaid
Kelli is Bri's soon to be sister in law. In the last 4 years, Bri and Kelli have grown close and love their Meinders boys. They will forever be sisters!
Zachary Fischels
Zachary Fischels - Groomsman
Caleb and Zach met while working at Northwestern Mutual. Caleb’s favorite memory with Zach was when they were in Madison, WI for an Iowa football game where they snuck beers into the stadium and shared them with a fan from the opposing team named Jeff. How do they remember his name? Because they added him on Facebook and found a video of them at the stadium on Jeff’s profile!
Janelle Fischels
Janelle Fischels - Bridesmaid
Janelle and Bri have become friends over the last few years through their significant others. Caleb, Clay, and Zach work together, which leaves Bri, Kelli, and Janelle on work trips, dinners, vacations, and occasional nail dates!
Kody Berns
Kody Berns - Groomsman
Caleb and Kody met while working at Northwestern Mutual. Caleb’s favorite memory with Kody was in Okoboji after another coworker’s wedding. Everyone else went to sleep while they continued to party until about 3 AM by themselves. To say the drive home the next morning was rough would be an understatement.
Cassandra Fjerstad
Cassandra Fjerstad - Bridesmaid
Cassie and Bri met when they were both working part time at the Cedar Valley Sportsplex. Cassie and Bri have remained friends, occasionally play mediocre volleyball, and bond over their love for Taylor Swift and their crazy dogs!
Carter Olk
Carter Olk - Groomsman
Caleb and Carter met while working at Northwestern Mutual. Caleb’s favorite memory with Carter was when they were living together and almost had to change career paths to Animal Control due to an unwelcomed guest (Raccoon) deciding to visit through the house chimney.
Zildjian Seehase
Zildjian Seehase - Bridesmaid
Zildjian and Bri are office buddies at The Gym. They have gotten close over the last year and love to wod together and go for all of the walks!đź«¶
Tate Hofmeister
Tate Hofmeister - Groomsman
Caleb and Tate met practically a week after Caleb was born. Caleb and Tate grew up together attending the same school in Ackley. Caleb’s favorite memory with Tate was one of our first and only days working construction together. This was after a 4 hour football practice in the middle of August with a temperature of 95 degrees mixing cement and mortar. They quickly realized that practice wasn’t too bad!
Anna Forsyth
Anna Forsyth - Bridesmaid
Anna and Bri met while Anna was interning at The Gym. They came close while surviving comp class workouts and grit camp. They also both love their animals and treat them as if they are their childrenđź«¶
Dalton Schipper
Dalton Schipper - Groomsman
Caleb and Dalton met in middle school at AGWSR. Caleb’s favorite memory with Dalton was being stopped by the cops with a bag of fireworks. Caleb read somewhere that steel wool and square batteries can start a fire and they had no other way to light them off. When the cops started asking questions Caleb proceeded to put them both in his sweatshirt pocket and found quickly sweatshirts can burn too!
Kayla Rottinghaus
Kayla Rottinghaus - Personal Attendant
Kayla and Bri met at Northwestern Mutual outing (the bucks game) back in 2020. Since then, Kayla has been one of Bri’s biggest cheerleaders. They have bonded through staff outings, bachelorette parties, and other various trips!❤️
