ADAM AND OLIVIA
Wedding Party
Ally Tsimekles
Maid of Honor
Hello! I'm Ally Tsimekles and I'm so honored to be this amazing girl's Maid of Honor. I met Liv waiting for Bus #18 (or #19 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) to pick us up for school when I was a Freshman in High School and she was in middle school. She'll tell you I bragged about getting my license while we waited for the bus. And that I left her to take the bus every day after I got my ticket to freedom. We didn't really become friends until we played soccer together. She was my favorite freshman to pick on! Fast forward to college and we became roommates. She is in just about every great college memory that I have. I will not share those memories for many reasons. (Find me at the reception!) She found a partner that is truly perfect for her and I'm so excited to stand next to her on the big day!

Olivia & I became best friends in high school while working at Lake Rudy. We were instant best friends; one day I didn’t know much about her & the next day we were laughing at each other like we had been friends forever. Our personalities are one in the same, which means I like to think I’m Olivia’s true soulmate (sorry Adam 😬). Olivia has been there for me through some of the hardest times and apart of some of my greatest times. I love picking up right where we left off, which is normally in the middle of cracking jokes and laughing at ourselves. I’m so happy she found Adam, a person who can always keep laughing with her! I wish them nothing but the best for their future together & am so honored to say I have best friends like them.

Bridesmaid
I met Olivia at high school freshman orientation, remembered that we were actually soccer teammates in 5th grade, and have been best friends ever since. I live in Clarksville, Indiana with my husband, Trey, and our 1 year old son, Lincoln.
Allie Poznanski
Bridesmaid
I moved in with Liv after only meeting her twice prior. Our goofy personalities meshed pretty quickly but we became the best of friends when we spent our last summer in Bloom together almost daily.
Jessica Stutzman
Bridesmaid
Hello! My name is Jessica Stutzman. The Lord blessed me greatly when He brought Olivia into my life as a sister, and also one of my very best friends. We bonded over hiking trips, laughing together (a lot!), winter hot tub sessions, washing dishes, and heart-to-hearts. For anyone who knows her, it doesn’t take long to see that being with Olivia is like standing in the sunshine: life-giving, smile-inducing, and so much fun! Living life as her sister is such a gift, and I am thankful to gain another brother in Adam. I love you both!
Allison Smith
Bridesmaid
It all started when Olivia moved into the neighborhood. We went from loners to fort builders, and our potential together was great as we learned that we could do anything together. Coming over every day after school, Olivia and I would play "poor and rich people", swim, and bike, but mostly play in the fort that we built. One day, Valerie sent a check with Olivia to give to my mom, and we realized the whole thing was staged. Although it was through babysitting, I met my best friend when I was nine, and will never forget the fun we've had throughout the years. Being with Adam and Olivia together is the best of fun, and I am grateful to be a part of the beginning stages of their adventure. AND SO IT BEGINS...
Bailey Pierson
Bridesmaid
Olivia and I first bonded over an intense contest at Brick Oven in the 3rd grade. Despite what she might say, I kicked her butt!.... We’ve been friends ever since. So happy for the couple to be!
Morgan McCray
Bridesmaid
I met Olivia my freshman year of college when we lived on the same floor at Mcnutt. We connected over our majors and have been best friends since. I am now engaged to her brother and will soon be going from best friends to sisters.

Alex Rynning
Best Man
My name is Alex Rynning and I have been lucky enough to know Adam since elementary school where we "terrorized" the school with our dashing looks and brains. This bond continued to grow over the years through sports, school and shenanigans. Since these years of our youth Adam has since moved in search of warmer weather and better golf courses, but no matter how much distance or time goes between us we can always pick up where we left off. I have been lucky enough to get to know Olivia over the years as well and seeing how happy she makes Adam I couldn't be more excited for the both of them. I look forward to seeing their love grow and being a part of their journey along the way.
Derek Johnson
Best Man
My name is Derek Johnson, I will be co best man for Adam and Olivia’s wedding. I have known Adam for nearly 20 years and I am incredibly proud to call him one of my best friends. Adam is as genuine as a person comes, as well kind and loyal. These characteristics have shaped him into who he is and I know he will carry them over into marriage. I have not known Olivia as long as I have known Adam, but in the few years that I have known her, it is not hard to see that she is a truly good hearted person and that she loves Adam deeply. I would like to say congratulations to the happy couple and wish them years of loving marriage!
Calvin Page
Groomsman
Hi everyone, my name is Calvin Page and I’m originally from West Palm Beach, FL. I first met Adam my freshman year at Indiana University through a mutual friend, but really became close during the second half of college. So close in fact, Adam invited me to share the master bedroom (garage) with him our junior year. This unparalleled bonding experience has since led us to be the modern day Tiger and Phil duo on the golf course, huge Packers fans rooting on Davante “Dante” Adams every Sunday, and most importantly, friends for life. I am grateful to have witnessed portions of Adam and Olivia’s journey so far and I look forward to more in the future.
Dan Vechart
Groomsman
I am Adam’s cousin and had the pleasure of living with him and Andy and Brenda (and Callie) for two summers while I was in college. Sharing a common bond of sports (Brady and Rodgers ain’t got nothing on these two 12s), some of my favorite memories with Adam were throwing football in the street, having dunk contests in the pool, and seeing him grow as a leader on the football and baseball fields. I consider Adam like another brother and am grateful to be part of his and Olivia’s special day.
Jake Fuiten
Groomsman
Hi everyone, my name is Jake Fuiten. Originally from Menomonee Falls but currently living right outside of Pensacola, Florida. Adam and I met during the summer of 2006 when we played baseball together, along with Alex Rynning. Alex and I were obviously the superstars of the team but occasionally had to give up our seat on the bench for Adam to take a rest after pitching and letting in his usual 5-10 run inning. Moving on to high school Adam and I had multiple classes together and again were teammates in multiple sports. He found a real keeper in Olivia while attending IU and I cannot wait to see where their journey takes them. Congrats!
Ben Boehler
Groomsman
Hey everyone, my name is Ben Boehler. Adam and I first met in elementary school and although I can’t remember memories of exactly where our friendship started, I’m thinking that the time I “accidentally” stabbed his hand with a pencil in the 5th grade sealed the deal on becoming life long friends. Growing up we have done everything from talent shows to band & football together. Brewers tailgates with too much beer or not enough propane, and everything else we’ve done have always been a blast and are memories I’ll cherish. Knowing the person Adam was raised to be, and that I’ve come to know, I’m so happy, and thrilled for him to have met Olivia when he went off to IU for college. I cannot wait to celebrate with you both and wish you many more happy and healthy years together.
Nathan Lange
Groomsman
I actually met Adam through my sister, who happens to be marrying him. She’s been a pain in my neck since I met her and I’m glad she’s found someone to direct that energy towards for the rest of his life. But in all seriousness, Olivia and I have always been close and I still remember when she deemed Adam important enough to meet her favorite older brother. We got along great from the start and I’ve grown to see him as a brother and friend. I am excited to celebrate their lives together and officially call Adam my brother.
