“It's hard to describe Jamie without using the typical clichés. But the fact of the matter is, she is all of those things. She defines the words beautiful, intelligent and caring. When I met her, I couldn't believe she liked me. When she got to know me, I couldn't believe she loved me. When I asked her, I couldn't believe she said yes. It is a privilege to experience life everyday next to such an amazing woman and friend, and I can't wait to do it forever.”- The Groom
“Greg’s intelligence and wit quickly won me over after we met, but one quickly learns there is more to him than that. I have been lucky enough to see him grow into a man and into one of the most generous and honest people I know. He has the unique ability to make anyone and everyone smile and can lighten even the darkest of rooms. After six and a half years I could not be more thrilled to finally marry my best friend and begin the rest of our lives together.”- The Bride
The ceremony will begin at 4:00 pm on October 25, 2014 at the Little Piney Lodge in Hermann, Missouri. The Little Piney Lodge is a beautiful wedding location and features a lake front view behind the gazebo. In the event of rain, the ceremony will move into the barn on the property.

For our honeymoon we will be travelling to Italy! We will spend some time in Rome, Florence, and a few other cities. Earlier than we had thought much about our wedding we knew we wanted to take our first trip as a married couple to one of the greatest places on Earth.
“Ashley and I have grown through numerous awkward stages together… braces, band, dance team, etc. living only a few houses apart from each other. Yet it still feels like nothing has changed from when we first met. I know Ashley will be a part of my life forever and I could never imagine my wedding day without her by my side."
“Tina came into our house when I was in high school as a foreign exchange student. She seamlessly became a permanent family member. Tina is truly the most caring and selfless person I’ve ever met. I am so excited to have my German sister with me on our big day! Love you to the moon and back <3.”
“Though Jenny and I just met a couple years ago, we’ve been through a couple of the most grueling years in grad school together. Late nights and early mornings of work quickly created a bond between us that will never fade. Our mutual loves for cats, coffee, and shopping also help! I am honored to have Jenny next to me on such an important day.”
“Jordan has been my best friend for years, and it seemed like a no brainer that he be the one to stand next to me on the biggest day of my life up to this point. I met Jordan just before I met Jamie and he has been with me from the beginning. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about the speech he has to give...”
“My brother Jeremy is one of the smartest, most ambitious and goofiest young people I have ever met. Many of my happy childhood memories involved doing something competitive with Jeremy. From wiffle ball to racing scooters around the basement, we have done it all together.”
“My brother Patrick is more like me than any other person on the planet. We have the same sense of humor, philosophy on life and same competitive spirit. Too bad I'm still better than you at everything ;). Nonetheless, I care about him dearly and am excited to have him standing with me on the big day.”
