Wedding bells ring as employees celebrate new marriages

Four bank employees have weddings to celebrate this week.

Rachel and Van under a gorgeous sky.

Mequon teller Van Corey married best friend Rachel in Oconomowoc last month. “We had absolutely beautiful weather on our perfect day,” he said. Among the guests were Southwest personal banker Shannan Mahloch and mortgage loan officer Diana Castillo. “Southwest was my old branch and I’m glad for the connections that I made there,” Van said.

Mandy and Chris, official at long last.

McHenry assistant branch manager Mandy Crain and new husband Chris finally tied the knot after multiple delays, including a rescheduling due to COVID-19 that required some clever save-the-date revisions. “The revamped wedding was a small elopement of the two of us, our officiant, and our awesome photographer — Burlington personal banker Erik Bankhead,” Mandy said. “It was absolutely perfect!”

Amanda and Bryan, looking very nuptial.

Senior systems analyst Bryan Peters and new wife Amanda got married early this month after 12 years together. Although they didn’t have to reschedule because of the pandemic, they did have to reduce their guest list slightly. “We had 150 people who had already RSVP’d, but the venue said we had to cut it down to 125,” Bryan said. “It was a rainy day, but it made for some great pictures out in Milwaukee around the Pabst Brewery! I also hear it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day — and I think we could all use that this year!”

Son Austin, Kelly, groom Zach, bride Ali, and husband Dan, all looking sharp.

And senior loan funding representative Kelly Thiemer’s son Zachary got married at the end of August. They also had to downsize the guest list because of pandemic capacity restrictions, but Kelly said it was a lovely day regardless. “No COVID was going to stop this wedding! It was a beautiful day to close out the summer!”
