Our Wedding

<p>Donovan and Selena attended Loveland High School together, just one year apart. They vaguely knew of each other then, but didn’t officially meet until after Selena had graduated. In 2019 Donovan would have his buddies over at his and Chris’ place for poker nights and it was there that Selena started tagging along with her brother, Job. The two started getting to know each other there and began dating in Spring 2020. The pair would go hammocking together, spend time watching Grand Tour, get snowed in, and even go on multiple trips together including Las Vegas for Selena’s 21st birthday.Fast forward to March of 2025, Donovan was down on one knee with a ring at Horsetooth Resevoir, and of course was met with an enthusiastic “Yes!”. The couple, along with immense support from their families, have spent the past year planning this wedding to fit their personalities and values.We look forward to celebrating with everyone and thank you all for taking time to be with us! </p>

Our Story

Casey and I have been best friends since first grade, so picking her was the easiest decision I could make! We grew up in school together, playing soccer next to each other, and have even been roomies for multiple years! 

Casey Bradley

We’ve always been cousins, but some years ago is when we really made a great bond and were inseparable. We enjoy spending summer days by the pool and chit chatting about whatever it is we’re reading these days!

Maraia and I have been great friends for as long as I can remember! Going through school together and playing sports with each other, it was only natural that she should be by my side for the big day!

Maraia Rubin

After years and years of working right next to each other, Riley and I developed a solid friendship around bullet journaling, book club, or just having nonsensical conversations!

Riley Kleinsmith

After working alongside each other for years, we maintained a strong friendship even after we both headed in different career paths. We love to talk books and chat about all we’re doing in life! 

Annastasia Carlberg

We met in late 2024 and instantly connected over our love for F1. Over time we’ve bonded over other subjects in our lives and have developed a close friendship!

Joey and I met in kindergarten and the rest is history.  We grew up playing football, having air-soft wars, playing video games and hanging out.  He’s one of those guys that you know is always going to be there.

Chris is not only my twin brother, but also a friend who always has my back.  Some of my favorite memories with Chris are from spending summers on the farm in Iowa fishing and target shooting.  

Chris Snook

Dylan is another buddy from elementary school.  We shared the same hobbies of football, air-soft and video games.  Staying connected as we have grown up has taken us on adventures to San Diego to visit Joey and hanging out on weekends.

Noah’s friendship in kindergarten has lasted into our adult lives. Football seems to be a common thread through my friendships.  It hasn’t changed in adulthood.  When life took Noah toAlabama, a trip was a must.  Enjoyed taking in a Crimson Tide game at a local hangout in Tuscaloosa.  Go ‘Bama!

Job and I got acquainted through an old roommate.  Ourfriendship grew while playing cards and hanging out at the condo when COVID had everything shut down.   His sister, Selena, was part of our crew too.  Fate has a funny way ofbringing people together.  What a blessing that I will now haveSelena as my wife and Job, my brother-in-law. 

Job Rael

Ryan and I met through some common friends in high schooland have been good buddies since.  Cruising the foothills on our bikes and grabbing a cold beverage at Avuncular Bob’s Beer House and other local watering holes led to us being roommates.Now we enjoy hanging out with our girls, Selena and Mara.
