Our Wedding

Our story started in a way that makes sense for us: with a newborn calf. Colter posted a Snapchat of a newborn calf late one night, and Victoria replied. That conversation turned into a friendship, then a relationship, and eventually a life together. When Colter proposed, he did it with that same cow — a full-circle moment. She still lives on the Soderholm farm, where it all began. We’re excited for our big day and the life we’re building together.

In October 2025, we became parents to our son, Bennet. He’s added a whole new layer to our story, one that makes the future feel even more meaningful. Our wedding day isn’t just about us; it’s about our family and the life we’re creating together.

We’d love to see guests in classy country western attire. Think polished western, not rodeo weekend: dresses, skirts, dress shirts, slacks, sport coats, and boots are welcome. Cowboy hats aren’t required — wear one if you feel like it. The reception will be outside, so plan shoes that work for a barn setting.
