The bride’s best friend. Kenna & Kels grew up in Malta together and became close when they lived together during undergrad at Rocky. They have been inseparatable ever since. Nights of wine and Netflix with their cats, days out at the lake with a beer in hand in matching suits, or nights filled with shenanigans these two are sisters at heart. Kelsey is currently a Speech Pathologist CCC in North Dakota. So when you visit with her, just know she’s diagnosing you!

Groom's youngest brother (Mom's second favorite). Colt is 7 years younger, which makes him the first person Cade was responsible for (in charge of). They grew up on very different paths, in very different places and learning from some different people but they somehow became the most alike in many ways. Colt owns Cowtrax Cattle Co which makes him Cade’s go to person for anything cattle related, though Cade is still trying to just “borrow” a couple bulls. He also likes to calf rope and can be found at the ranch in Canada when he isn’t on the road delivering cattle or rodeoing.

One of the bride’s best friend. Since moving back up to the hi-line Cheyenne & McKenna have been travel buddies, wine connoisseurs, and dog moms. Weekly you can find McKenna at Cheyenne’s house for ‘Bach night’, even if the reality tv show isn’t on they find something to watch and life to talk about.

One of the Grooms' high school best friends. They were often found to be doing any sort of outdoors activities when they weren’t playing football or basketball for the Red Devils. They were just about the same size so they often mirrored each other on the football field and the basketball court. They graduated together from Huntley Project High School Class of 2012. Cade wasn’t much of a hunter or fisherman, but he was always invited to up the quota or carry something. Devin has a cat named Peaches.

One of the bride’s best friend from undergrad. Tash and McKenna became best friends while both attending undergrad at Rocky. They met through mutual friends and hit it off the first night, they soon became roommates at the Poly house. So many memories were made. Tash’s calling is teaching, from being an elementary educator to high school she thrives and is always the students’ favorite. She is currently teaching middle school in Billings. Her and her husband Coul have a son EZ and will soon be welcoming baby Hill <3.

One of the Grooms’ high school best friends. They connected rather quickly by playing basketball and video games. Dakota graduated a year ahead of Cade but they both lived in Billings by this time, so they weren’t ever very far apart. Dakota is the “dad” of the group, which means he was often initially blamed for what the others had done. But most of the time this blame goes to someone else in the group. Dakota is married to Lauren and they just had a baby girl named Marlowe.

Bride’s best friend from Vet school. McKenna met Bethany in veterinary school, they were desk and lab partners. Bethany quickly became like McKenna’s big sister, helping her through some of the most difficult days that vet school throws at you. The amazing Bethany earned her PhD between the years of vet school and is currently finishing up her final year. By wedding time she will be Dr. Dr. Bethany. She lives in Fort Collins CO with her husband Peter, their adorable daughter Marion Jo and will soon be welcoming baby number 2 <3

One of the Grooms’ best friends from Idaho. They met during Cade’s first field training exercise down in Idaho. As Cade was rather new to the Army Guard and was still learning his job, Bliss was quite patient teaching him what he needed to do and know. Which led Cade to have many more successes in the following 10 years. Jesse and Cade were usually found around one another during big events, family gatherings and holidays. They were both selected to be Warrant Officers, Cade graduating in 2023 and Jesse completing his school in 2024. Jesse is married to Meaghan and they have two children, Emery and Camden.

Zeena is Cade’s little cousin. Even though Cade blocked the door dramatically announced “we don’t need a baby” and “he’s MY Papa” when she was born, they soon became more like brother and sister then just cousins. With these two being so close it was not a surprise that McKenna and Zeena hit it off right away. Zeena works at a bank in Chinook, where her and her husband Robbie just purchased their first home and live with all of their furbabies.
