Our Wedding

Adam and Emma’s journey began back in high school, where they first met through mutual friends. Though their paths crossed early on, it wasn’t until the summer of 2021—after graduation—that life brought them together. Over the past four years, their bond has grown through love, laughter, and everyday adventures. Now, they’re ready to begin their next chapter as husband and wife. Adam works as a skilled carpenter, and Emma is a talented hairstylist. Together, they’ve built a warm and loving home in Waukesha—and they can’t wait to celebrate this special moment with the people they love most.

Maddy is the bride’s older sister and maid of honor! She is one of a kind and the best older sibling a girl could ask for. Maddy and Emma grew up very close despite their 4 year age gap. Maddy has helped from driving Emma to dance class at age 12 to driving her to her make up trial for the wedding at 21. Emma wouldn’t want anyone else to be by her side on her special day!

Abbey is the groom’s older sister and bride’s “future sissy”. Abbey is creative and bubbly and will never fail to put a smile on your face. She is a good shopping buddy to the bride as they have the same boujee taste. She is a wonderful asset to the bridesmaid squad being married herself and helping so much along the way!

Ashley is the groom’s sister and the bride’s future sister. She is a fellow Taylor swift lover and will play an asset in making sure the bride always loves the music that's playing. She is always there to talk to and lend you a helping hand. So excited to have her on this special day.

Lauren and Emma grew up together being friends since middle school. They didn’t become closer until Emma took her to a Dermot Kennedy concert at 18. Their love of music pushed their friendship closer together. Lauren is hilarious and a fashion icon at all times. She will jam out to the most depressing Taylor Swift song with Emma but be in the best mood. Emma is so happy to have her forever dance buddy by her side!

Emma is so lucky to have her!
