Stephanie & Jordan

Wedding Party

Get to know some of our favorite people that will be standing by our side on our special day.

Nicole Janousek

Maid of Honor

A former Dressen and only sibling to the bride, Nicole is Steph's younger sister. Being only 18 months apart in age, they may have had more sibling rivalry than most thanks to their mom putting them in literally the same activities growing up. Her husband also happens to be named Jordan, which made the family group text interesting. She can often be found on her moped scooting to Steph's house for the occasional glass of wine and cheese board.

Taylor Kelly

Bridesmaid

Taylor and Steph were introduced by JP and she is a former Bennie. These two are always making sure that each others outfits are perfect, whether it be the latest country concert they bought tickets to or just a local bar. These two bond over a love for spicy margaritas and has grown to love the town festivities of Nickle Dickel Day in Waconia.

Halle Cravens

Bridesmaid

Another margarita loving member and former Peterson, Halle is the solo sibling to JP. There must be something in the Waconia water because she also happened to find and marry a man from the local watering hole. These two share some core memories on family cabin weekends and sunny vacations while the boys still claim to this day to have seen "that one guy" from One Direction at a bar in Mexico after the girls went back to the hotel.

Lauren Kirsch

Bridesmaid

Friends since birth, Lauren and Steph's friendship actually starts where their dads are also childhood friends in Waconia (thank you Troy and Bob!). They share so many memories together that there may be too many to count. Cue the Progressive commercial on how not to become your parents because so far these girls haven't taken good notes and both live in their hometown again. I guess she's stuck with me forever!

Lauren Ross

Bridesmaid

Lauren #2 played basketball with Steph in high school as well as college and have come be good friends. In high school Steph was a little intimidated by the upperclassmen on the basketball court and in the hallways. She however later showed Steph the ropes on a recruiting trip at Northern and the rest is history! These days you can see these two hanging at your local country music festival.

Bethany McMullen

Bridesmaid

College roomies - Coach Fred didn't know who he was pairing up together that freshmen year because these two became two peas in a pod! Beth and Steph have blossomed into a close friendship that’s going on 10 years now. From summers at the local rodeo, working the t-shirt stand at the Sturgis Bike Rally, to Breck Ski trips they share countless laughs and memories together.

Jessica Koponen

Bridesmaid

This Wolfpack is strong in numbers in this wedding party. Jess, another teammate, came into the friendship circle freshmen year as she conveniently roomed next door to Steph and Beth. She was always encouraging the girls to get on the dance floor and show off their best moves. Being the oldest one in the group, the girls started an annual bar crawl in her honor, "the walk on main" which started with Margaritas on one side of town and ended up at the college bar for dancing at the end of the night.

Ashley Zemlicka

Personal Attendant

Although Ashley may look like the point guard for this basketball bridal party, she was the softball girl across the hall from the girls sophomore year. There was something about Ashley, in which Steph, Beth, Jess and Paige decided that she would be the perfect compliment to complete the friendship group. One year later those 5 social butterflies moved in together to their college house, The Shed. Ashley was constantly baking and is responsible for the never ending sweets that lingered in their college house.

Paige Scheck

Personal Attendant

Rounding off the team for these college teammates Paige lead the Wolfpack in karaoke nights. If The Zoo Bar could talk it would say this Wolf had the best dance moves for two years strong. The story goes that The Shed girls were all innocent until one fateful night when Steph's mom was in town. Brenda arrived back at The Shed to an unplanned house party after walking in the front door and saw none other than the point guard dancing on a kitchen chair.
