Jessica Cutler and Niels Thogersen III were married Feb. 29 in Kauai, Hawaii.

Jessica, daughter of Pamela West of Seattle and Jim Cutler and Beth Wheeler of Bainbridge Island, is a 2006 graduate of Boston College and a 2009 graduate of Seattle University School of Law. She practices law in Seattle.

Niels is the son of Kathy Johnson and Niels Thogersen Jr. of Milwaukee, Wisc. He has a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from University of Wisconsin.

The couple met briefly as members of a cycling team in 2009. In August 2010 they partnered for a tandem bicycle stage race in Eugune, Ore.

“After four tandem races in three days, we were pretty much inseparable,” Jessica said.

The couple honeymooned in Hawaii after the wedding and plan on a trip to Spain in the future. They make their home in Ballard.
