Our Wedding

Marcus and Savannah met on Hinge, and from their very first date at The Forks, they felt an instant connection. Over wine and good conversations, laughing and sharing stories like they’d known each other forever they knew they had found something special. It didn’t take long for either of them to realize they had found the one. When Marcus proposed, he recorked a bottle of wine with the words “Will you marry me?” hidden inside. After Savannah said yes, he surprised her again by bringing both of their families together to celebrate. From that first date to now, their story has been filled with love, laughter, and just the right amount of sweetness!

Sister of the bride, Lexie, is the wittiest and sassiest of them all! Lexie and Savannah have been best friends for life. Their daily phone calls and frequent hangouts bring so much joy to Savannah’s day.


Alexiah Olson

The best man. Peter and Marcus have been friends since their business school days, but they became even closer after a memorable JDC West volunteer shift - one that may have cost Peter a date due to his inability to pick up on basic cues from the girl working the shift with them, but led to something arguably much better: a lasting friendship with Marcus. 

Peter Parboji

In a world of teachers, we all know the importance of a good vice principal. Every bride also needs a good vice maid of honour! Bromlei, only 18 days older than the bride, has been like a sister to Savannah since babies! It was a no brainer to have Bromlei stand beside the bride!

Marcus and Theo’s friendship also goes back to their Asper days. Their friendship is built on sarcastic humour and endless quotes. In fact, it is possible that the two of them have said more to each other via movie or tv quote than actual sentences they thought of themselves.


Theo Martin

Janelle and Savannah like to say they have been best friends since the age of 2, when they met at their brothers’ hockey games! Their friendship truly took off when they started school, and they never looked back. So many memories have been shared with Janelle, and there are so many more to come!


Janelle Yarjau

Marcus has been friends with Colin longer than anyone else. The two of them bonded through years of grade school and playing video games together.  While playing, Marcus would fake interview Colin (usually while beating him and getting under Colin’s skin) and ask him “Coach, how are you gonna turn things around in this game?”. The nickname has stood the test of time, all these years later, just like their friendship. 

Colin Parry

Moe is the best sister-in-law out there! She has been part of the bride’s life ever since she started dating Drew, the bride’s brother. An instant friendship sparked right away, and it has only grown since. They continue to hang out as both family and friends, and their love of shopping shows no signs of slowing down.


Maureen Olson

Colin “Cmac” McLarty has been a close friend of Marcus’s since high school, with their bond only strengthening in their Asper days. They’ve built a friendship on Simpsons references, meme swapping, sports debates, and shared misery as University of Illinois fans.

Savannah and Mallory met in junior high and became even closer in high school Spanish class. Both in their bridal era at the same time, they are in each other’s parties for a reason. 

Mallory Trudel 

Shawn and Marcus have been friends since high school and have stayed close even as Shawn has moved all over the map. Distance has never changed their friendship, which has stood the test of time and geography. 


Shawn West

Chantel is right on brand for being friends with Savannah. She is Savannah’s friend first and cousin second. Chantel and Savannah bonded over countless sleepovers, singing competitions, and playing hockey together, creating memories from childhood into adulthood.

Chantel Hildrebrand

Big brother of the bride and now friend to the groom as well. Growing up with Drew was an adventure. He is caring and always looks out for those he loves. He stepped in as a big brother when needed and was a friend at all other times. He is always ready to help when you’re in a bind, and he does it with a smile. 


Drew Olson

Celine and Savannah go way back! They first became friends in grade 1 and never looked back! If you have met Celine, you know how she radiates warmth, kindness, wit and good vibes! She makes everything fun, and every moment spent with her is a good time. This warmth and wittiness are surely to shine through while being our co-emcee. 

Celine Peloquin

Kayla and Marcus first crossed paths in high school, but it wasn’t until after university in 2013 that they became close friends. (Back then, Kayla was admittedly too cool to hang out with Marcus!) Marcus was honoured to emcee her wedding to Justin, and now it’s her turn at the mic — a full-circle moment that makes having her up there even more special.

Our first nephew, and Savannah was instantly obsessed! Oskar catches us off guard with his sweet words and thoughtful ways. Anyone who meets Oskar knows how loving and cute he is. Catch him carrying the rings down the aisle with his helper, James!


Oskar

James is as cute as they come, with the biggest smile that radiates warmth to everyone around him. We love watching him grow and hit all his milestones. As the first grandchild on the Moore side, our Sunday dinners are filled with watching him and enjoying all the entertainment he brings.


James

Sophie is a ray of sunshine with just the right amount of sass and playfulness! You can usually find her with a little grin, ready to pull you into one of her jokes. She gives the best hugs and has the sweetest little laugh. We love her to pieces and never want her to grow up! There is no denying she will be the cutest flower girl.


Sophie

Georgia is sassy like her mama and cute as can be! When you get a run and a hug from Georgia, you feel like the luckiest person in the world. She adores her little sister Annie and is already so mature in looking out for her. She loves following Sophie and Oskar in all their adventures, and we hope she will follow them down the aisle as another cutie flower girl too!

Georgia

The newest member of the crew! Annie is the smallest of our wedding party and also the sweetest. Her cute little coos and smiles brighten anyone’s day. Catch the groom holding her sometimes, but mostly the bride is hogging her (if she can get her from big sister Georgia).
