Tessa & Austin
Wedding Party
Kate
Matron of Honor
My big sister and biggest inspiration. Everyone always assumes we are twins! I cherish every single moment I get to spend with her. I couldn't be more thankful to have her as my matron of honor, she will be top-notch (she knows how to fly a helicopter for goodness sakes!)
Lori
Bridesmaid
My best friend since October 28th, 2006 at 2:54PM. The memories are not limited to innumerable sleepovers, mudding on the farm, skipping debate class, and coercing the special guys in our lives into becoming friends. Every blonde requires a brunette best friend, and we make a great pair.
Sara
Bridesmaid
Sara is an incredibly special best friend of mine, we met at college in Sioux Falls and my life has been better since. We both ended up transferring away but we are sure to travel to see each other often! She was one of the first people to know about my big crush on "hotdog" (Austin!). She has a huge heart and always goes above and beyond to be involved in my life.
Brooke
Bridesmaid
The only person I trust to pick out my nylons. It's a long story! Brooke is my cousin on my dad's side and she, Kate and I have many memories playing dress-up at grandma's house.
Rachel
Bridesmaid
A college roommate of mine at "The Pantry". Rachel is always sure to include me in on a good time. Lucky for us, we both ended up relocating to Omaha!
TREVAN
Best Man
My little and only brother. Lots of fun memories being physically active and competitive growing up. A lot of rough housing, which I take credit for being the reason he was so good in sports. He's a great brother and he made me a proud uncle.
PATRICK
Groomsman
I spent almost every day with Patrick growing up as kids in Elkton. We went from building forts, riding go-carts, playing sports, hosting pool parties, picking-up chicks, to working summer jobs together. Patrick has always been there for me and is a lifelong friend.
ZACH
Groomsman
"Camel" is a great friend with so many great memories growing up together in Elkton including building forts, riding bikes, and creating a baseball league in the back yard. Zach was a great teammate in sports! He was one of the first people I introduced Tessa to and according to Tessa, he gives the best hugs.
SCOTT
Groomsman
Scott is a great friend who I've become close to since his wife Lori is Tessa's best friend. One of our earliest memories was when Tessa and Lori cooked us a pizza for Valentine's Day with mushrooms on it from the front yard. Since we survived that, we now enjoy playing golf, softball, and introducing each other to good beer. Scott is the life of the party... he will go all night and be the last man standing!
COLTEN
Groomsman
The big brother of Tessa. You know how big brothers are when they have a little sister! It was a warm welcome when I got invited to play in the Stoltenburg football fantasy league. I'm surprised they let me return after I won the first year I was invited!
TYLER
Groomsman
Tessa's "little" brother! He has been a huge help to us in diagnosing the mechanical issues with Tessa's Jeep, seriously a million times. It's always fun going to the farm and starting up a game of N64 or Catan. You can find him in his cowboy hat.
