Our Wedding

Ally and Steven’s story began in the Northwest Indiana car community. They’d known of each other for years, sharing a love for cars but never truly crossing paths, until one snowy day changed everything. When Ally posted a photo of her car stuck in the snow, Steven, never one to pass up a chance for a joke, messaged her, “That’s because your car sucks.” Without missing a beat, Ally fired back, “Pretty bold for a guy who slid his car into a ditch.” That playful exchange sparked a connection that quickly grew beyond banter. What started as teasing messages turned into long conversations, shared laughs, and eventually, a relationship built on humor, respect, and a shared sense of adventure. Now, as they prepare to say “I do,” Ally and Steven are still laughing together, and still trading jokes like they did from day one. Their journey has always been fueled by love, laughter, and a little friendly competition, and they can’t wait to see where the road ahead takes them.

Our Story

"I’m so excited for you to meet my incredible friend, Abbie! While we haven’t always been super close, we’ve definitely had our special moments. We first became close in middle school and high school, then reconnected in college, where we became closer than ever. College really solidified our bond, and I can honestly say that those years together shaped our friendship in the best possible way. As life led us into adulthood, we may not see each other as often, but when we do, it’s like no time has passed at all. Abbie’s been there through all the highs and lows, and I feel so grateful for the laughter and love she’s brought into my life over the years. I can’t wait for you to get to know her as well!" - Ally

"I’m so excited for you to meet Paige, one of my dear friends who I’m lucky to have met while working at Vontobel. We didn’t start out super close, but during her training when she first got hired, we quickly hit it off. As time went on, our friendship grew stronger—especially during work trips where we spent countless hours together. But it was when I moved to Dyer that our bond truly blossomed. Being just a few minutes away from each other made it so easy to hang out, and we took full advantage of that! Paige has been such a great friend, always there with support, laughter, and amazing conversations. I’m so grateful for how our friendship has grown over the years, and I can’t wait for you to meet her!" - Ally

"This is Mike, my brother and my best man. We’ve been through a lot together over the years, from childhood antics to adulting mishaps. He’s been my go to guy for just about everything, whether it was a last-minute favor or just someone to laugh at my bad decisions with.

Mike’s one of those people who can always make you laugh, even when you don’t want to. He’s been there for me through thick and thin, and I’m beyond grateful to have him by my side today.

So, get ready for some stories, a lot of laughs, and a little bit of embarrassing stuff (because, of course). Mike may be my brother, but he’s also one of my closest friends, and I couldn’t imagine anyone better to stand with me today." - Steve

"This is Evan, a childhood friend and one of my closest buddies. We’ve been through a lot together over the years, and he’s always had my back. Evan’s the kind of guy who can always make you laugh, and I’m grateful to have him by my side today." - Steve
