Our Story

My name is Corey, I've known Nolan for a little over 5 years now. I met him not long before he met Laura, and since then I'd figured one way or another I'd end up officiating their wedding. My favorite memories with Nolan and Laura come from the many holiday parties they've hosted. Even though I rarely leave remembering much, I am looking forward to creating many more forgotten memories!

I'm Austin Halbakken. I've known Nolan for so long that I can't remember a time where we weren't out doing something crazy together. The amount of memories we have made will last me a  lifetime, and with Laura now being added to our chaotic adventures it's going to be all the better. Nolan and Laura are a wonderful pair and both their families are so welcoming to me and our group of friends. I couldn't be happier and am so excited to see what life brings for the both of them.

My name is Sydney, I've known Nolan and Laura for four and a half years and have had countless adventures with them both. My favorite memory is when we split up for shenanigans; Laura and I were exploring and Austin and Nolan took the boat out. Laura and I were eating ice cream when we got an SOS call from Nolan and Austin saying they lost the prop and needed us to bring the trailer. The best part is, this wasn't the first time they had been stranded on the river.

Hello, I am Samuel Turner. I have known Nolan since my birth considering I'm his younger brother. I like to golf and fish which is what Nolan and I spend a lot of time doing together. A favorite memory with Nolan would be when Nolan first moved to Winona and I came to visit him all the time. Now I enjoy spending days on the water with Nolan and Laura and going to the cabin and spending weekends together.

I'm Erica Frosch, aka Laura's BEST sister (ignore anything Alyssa says). Laura has been one of the most exemplary people in my life from the start. Growing up alongside her has been a complete blessing. She is always ready to lend an ear and give advice. She is a kind and caring woman with lots of love to give. Watching her fall in love with Nolan has only made her shine more. I am so grateful that Nolan is joining our family and will continue to make my sister happier than ever!

I am Brody Page from Mason City, Iowa. I love fishing and riding motorcycles, which are two things Nolan and I share. We met when I was 15 while roller skating together. I've always been the child in the group, but that hasn't stopped me from wrestling Nolan. Have to say the best two memories with him are when he tried to wake me up with firecrackers and when he woke me up by laying on me the day after I returned from basic training. I love coming up to hang out with Nolan and Laura during the Memorial weekend bash they put on every year. I'm so happy that Nolan found an amazing wife and an amazing family. Maybe someday I'll beat Laura's dad in pool... Just maybe.

Hi! My name is Alyssa and I am Laura's youngest sister. I love anything to do with being outside and active: going for walks, hikes, running, playing pickleball, etc. I've known Laura my whole life and Nolan since they first started dating. When Nolan came into the picture, he already started treating me like another sibling right off the bat, even yelling at Laura to stop picking at me (; I am so excited for him to legally become part of our family so I can officially call him a brother.

Howdy, I'm Cole Halbakken. Stated as the younger brother of the best man, but that's only proven on paper. Known as the comedic relief to most. I'm currently enrolled in college up in Maine, so I don't get to see Nolan or Laura all that often anymore, but I have had my fair share of time spent with them. They're welcoming, kind, and match each other's personalities to a T. Laura's quiet nature corresponds nicely to Nolan's never ending lungs of air, and his vast arrangement of random knowledge is somehow only trumped by her. They truly are an amazing fit, and I'm glad I get to be a part of their journey.

My name is Jackie Bobb, I am a cousin of Laura's so I've known her for 25+ years. I enjoy being outside, spending time with my family and friends, and talking with people (: My favorite memories with her and Nolan are spending time together at the cabin laughing and joking around the fire.

My name is Jason Bobb. I am Laura's younger cousin so I've known her my whole life. I am 16 and like to fish, golf, and ride snowmobiles and four wheelers! My favorite memories of Laura and Nolan are of being at the lake together golfing, fishing, and playing games.

Hi, I'm Sarah and I am very blessed to be one of Laura's cousins. I've known Laura my whole life and have gotten to know Nolan over the past 5 years. I love hanging out with my people and going on walks! My favorite thing about Laura is her quick wit and my favorite thing about Nolan is the way he loves my cousin! My favorite memory with the both of them is our time at the cabin. I couldn't be happier to be a part of their special day.

Hi I'm Devin. I enjoy golfing, playing pickleball, and spending time at the lake. I've known Laura and Nolan for about four years through my girlfriend Alyssa, who is Laura's sister. It's been great getting to know them both over the years, and I'm excited for what's ahead for them!

Devin Truchon

I'm Elizabeth, Nolan's older sister. I have known Nolan for 29 years and Laura for what seems like the same amount of time. My favorite memories with the bride and groom are almost kicking Nolan's butt playing Lorcana and when Nolan and Laura met Cora (my daughter) for the first time.

Hi I'm Thomas, I'm Laura's brother-in-law. I've known Laura and Nolan for the last five years, and over these years I've had Nolan act as my personal hunting and fishing guide on multiple occasions and Laura as a great personal chef while my wife is taking care of our son. They are both wonderful people. I am excited for Nolan to officially join the family.

Hey Everyone! My name is Sammy Dokken, though my close friends call me "SamSam." When the weather's nice, you'll find me outside doing just about anything! I love biking, swimming, hiking, sand volleyball, or even just running around with my dog, Juno, who is six. I have had the pleasure of Nolan for roughly ten years, having met through mutual friends during his time at NIACC. We, along with five others, shared an apartment, and we have remained active in each other's lives ever since. I was fortunate to meet Laura shortly after she and Nolan began dating in 2020. It was immediately apparent to me that Nolan had found his ideal partner. Since then, we have celebrated "Friends Christmas" together annually, in addition to embarking on weekend trips and camping trips, among many other activities. My fondest memories with them are too numerous to single out. I love all the times I spend with them, and they are consistently gracious hosts. I do particularly enjoy witnessing their competitive spirit towards each other, which can be a frequent occurrence. It is during these moments that I observe the passion and fire ignite in their eyes as I watch them fall more and more in love with one another. I couldn't be happier knowing they've found their perfect match.

Hi, I'm Kailey - Laura's youngest first cousin. Currently, I'm 11 years and 8 months old. I enjoy using coding programs, such as Scratch. I also love gaming, mostly on the switch with titles like: Pokemon Shield, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom. But enough about me. I enjoy playing with Laura and Nolan's cats. The dogs... Take a guess how that went. (Hint: I'm a cat person.) I also fondly remember playing in the lake with Laura, having a pool noodle fight.
