Taryn & Aaron

Wedding Party

Jessica

Maid of Honor

Jess has been my ride or die, since I first met her busting into my dorm room, during the first week of school, freshman year at Ferris State . I can’t even count how many parties and events we’ve gone to together, but every time is always a blast. She’s supportive, hilarious, honest and extremely smart. I have loved having our friendship throughout the years.

Mary

Bridesmaid

I’ve known Mary since we were in elementary school. My life wouldn’t be the same without her. She fills my life with love , laughter and joy. We can go any amount of time during our busy lives and when we do hang out, we pick right back up. She’s driven , independent, such a gentle soul and makes me laugh so hard I snort like a pig.

JulieAnne

Bridesmaid

Jules has been a super close friend since middle school. We’ve shared many good memories from sleepovers, bday parties, holiday get togethers, senior vacation, senior beach week, hanging out with the swimmers, to dinners and her bridal/baby showers now as adults. She is kind, math smart, hard working, supportive, and understanding. I am so very lucky to have her in my life.

Kelli

Bridesmaid

Kelli is one of my best friends, she is my sorority sister and was my college roommate most of college. We spent most of our time Lounging watching some trash tv and eating delicious food, if we weren’t at a party. She introduced me to life with cats, she loves animals probably more than I do (and that is a lot). Her job as a Nicu nurse is perfect for her. She is the sweetest, loving, determined woman and always gives the best advice.

Brandi

Bridesmaid

I met Brandi after college when dating an ex. After that fell through we stayed friends and it was one of the best decisions. She is a friend that would give the shirt off her back. It doesn’t matter what we are doing together, dinners, going on walks with her kids, attending party in the park, I enjoy her company. She is sociable, generous, fun and will always make you feel comfortable.

Tiffani

Bridesmaid

Tiffani worked with me at Eagle Village youth treatment facility. I would not have made it through the hard days without her. She made work fun. She is so good with kids, patient and Caring. We also would spend time together outside of work to let loose, and we always did just that. We would get wild. Tiffani is always down for anything. Although we don’t get a lot of time together, when we do we have so much fun and are sure to need some Advil the next morning.

Dan

Best Man

Best Man and rightfully so! Dan is my longest friendship basically spanning our entire lives! We met in 1st grade and never stopped being best friends. We would spend every weekend together growing up, I basically lived at the Oles house as a child. Dan was the one who helped me grow as a person and in a way helped shape me into the man I am today. We have been on countless adventures together and don’t think I ever laugh as hard as I do when I am around him. He is one of a kind.

Kevin

Groomsman

One of the closest and most meaningful friendships I have. Dating all the way back to high school, Kevin and I have been through some special moments in life. He always found a way to bring more laughter and fun into any situation. It has been an incredible thirteen years of substantial memories and hilarious stories. Kevin is a great motivator, awesome golf partner, and an unbelievable friend. Looking forward to many more!

Austin

Groomsman

The youngest of the Steffen bunch, a financial wizard, a tech guru, and hands down the funniest person I have ever known. Austin can take something that is literally meaningless and turn it into the most hilarious thing you have ever heard. He finds the humor in any situation and can make you bust out laughing when you least expect it. He is one of my best friends and even though he is my younger brother I still look up to him in so many ways.

Andrew

Groomsman

My older brother, likes to think he is the strongest of the three…..it’s me. He is a sports mastermind and board game enthusiast. More importantly he has been the ideal role model for both of his younger brothers our entire lives. Andrew has always blazed the trail for us and continually set an example of what a good brother, son, husband, and father should look like. I know he will always have my back no matter what, and I love him for that.

Colin

Groomsman

Eclectic, eccentric, artistic, and above all else a great friend. Colin is an amazing human being. I met Colin when I was just 19 years old playing basketball and after our first game together, I remember thinking I wanted to know more about this character. He is overflowing with grand ideas and always has a vision of something strangely unique. He is one of my best friends that I can honestly say I have done the craziest things with! Love this guy till the end no matter what he gets himself into.

Dustin

Groomsman

All the way from Cali Taryn’s older brother and my future brother-in-law. Dustin is tremendously smart, working on projects I cannot even begin to fathom. He extremely caring and kind to those around him. He is an animal lover to his cat and new pup, and is always down to go to the cat café. I am excited to have a bonus brother and share more jokes and stories with him!
