Wedding Party

Janna

Bride

Jordan

Groom

Andrea Stolzer

Co-Matron of Honor

Andrea and Janna met on a beautiful Saturday in February 1988, when 21-month-old Janna suddenly realized she’d have to share the spotlight. Thanks in part to their mom’s habit of occasionally dressing them alike, people often mistook them for twins—helped along by the fact that Janna was adorably petite for her age. Their sisterhood growing up had all the classic ups and downs: fights over the phone line, “borrowing” each other’s friends until everyone became besties, and adventures like parasailing—when Andrea swore she saw a shark in the water just to freak Janna out. Over the years, that playful rivalry blossomed into an unshakable friendship. These days, they’re still quoting their favorite movies (“Do it to it, Lars!”), and Andrea couldn’t be more honored to stand by her big sister’s side on her wedding day.

Best Man

Even though I've only known Jordan a few years, we quickly bonded over a variety of shared hobbies and interests. Both Jordan and Janna have made such a quick impression on me and I'm excited to share their big day with them.

Tara Davidson

Co-Matron of Honor

Tara and Janna are sisters who share a bond that has only grown stronger over the years, despite their seven-year age difference, with their birthdays falling just one day apart—though they’ve always been celebrated as a pair. Both sisters share a deep love of good food, specifically their mother’s corn chowder and gooey butter cake. Beyond being sisters, Janna has embraced her role as “Aunt J” with wholehearted devotion, pouring endless love into Tara’s three boys. Tara deeply admires her sister’s generosity, soft heart, and the way she shows up for family in every season of life. Watching Janna now begin this next chapter—marrying someone so perfectly suited to her—fills Tara with joy. To her, it feels like a beautiful continuation of all that Janna deserves: happiness, partnership, and the love she has always given so freely to others.

Jordan and I met down at Rolla while on the shooting team there. I was a year older than Jordan. I was friends with an older guy on the team, Timmy Meissen. Timmy graduated my freshman year, and on his departure, he told me about a kid from back home who is gonna be starting school here next year—get him out and show him around. We did just that and have had Jordan in our group ever since. Jordan and myself still shoot on a regular basis today. Besides shooting, Jordan has become quite a concert goer. We catch a lot of live music together. We're both always down for a road trip, and Jordan's newest hobby has brought a lot of road trips. Jordan decided to start drag racing, and I'm here for it!

Tonya Summers

Bridesmaid

Tonya and Janna met at Hope Montessori Academy in Wildwood. Janna was a teaching assistant in another teacher’s room but Tonya saw her love for the Montessori philosophy and admired her work ethic and quickly recruited her into the Kindergarten classroom. At first they were just teaching partners but eventually they became inseparable friends. They started hanging out on the weekends, going to movies, having game nights, attending spinning classes and even taking vacations together. Tonya’s two children and husband began to see how much they meant to each other and started including Janna in all family functions. Sometimes Tonya’s husband got jealous of their special bond and the way they pushed each other through life’s challenges, like when Janna taught Tonya to ride a bike without training wheels and Tonya made Janna face her fear of heights on numerous occasions, but he also saw how they made each other better and decided he had no choice but to accept their incredible relationship. Tonya and Janna have been through it all together, births, graduations, funerals and even drunken dog adoptions, they have cried and laughed until they peed their pants. Janna and Tonya have been true friends and confidants for over 20 years. They always have each other’s backs. They are like Thelma and Louise, no matter what happens in life they are always just thankful that they are taking the ride together. Hopefully Jordan knows that he’s marrying Tonya too!

I met Jordan during college at Missouri S&T while shooting on the trap and skeet team. After graduation, Jordan moved to the St. Louis area and used his connections at Boeing to hunt me down. He quickly became one of my best friends. We continue to shoot clay targets regularly. We also started riding motorcycles together, beginning with local bike events and later riding thousands of miles through national parks out west. We have been on countless lake trips, float trips, nascar/drag races and whatever shenanigans we could get into. Jordan is a great friend and there is no one quite like him!

Ava Benrubi

Bridesmaid

It was a cold day in the beginning of 1998. Little Ava had just moved to STL and started to go to STL fam church where she met Janna at youth and they have been friends ever since. From blasting NSYNC in Mama B’s car, our short lived jewelry business, concerts, high school, boys, everything in between and then me moving away almost 11 years ago, we’ve remained very close all these years. Janna is like a sister to me and a second daughter to my mom when she was here on this Earth. I was so honored to have Janna by my side on my wedding day and I am even more honored to be standing with her when she marries Jordan. I love you so much Janna and can’t wait to celebrate you and Jordan!!!!

I first met Jordan through mutual friends, and we quickly became fast friends thanks to our shared love of motorcycles. Since then, he has consistently proven to be a person you can always count on. I am proud to call him my friend.
