Catie and Kevin Zwier’s wedding at Good Shepherd Catholic School in Minnesota garnered attention for its inclusive and heartwarming nature. Catie, a kindergarten teacher, surprised her students by hosting the ceremony on “Fancy Surprise Day” during Catholic Schools Week. With the principal’s backing, students dressed up and filled the school’s church for the event. Catie, adorned in her mother’s wedding gown, and school members participated in readings, creating a touching atmosphere of community involvement. The couple was greeted by cheering students waving silver pompoms as they exited, marking a memorable celebration that epitomized love and togetherness.
Though Catie and Kevin had a traditional wedding later with family and friends, it was this school ceremony that truly captured the essence of their bond and their deep connection to the school community. Their decision to involve their students in such a meaningful way exemplifies the importance of inclusivity and the special role educators play in their students’ lives.
