Two Best Men

Avery & Jordan Schleichkorn

Aaron's Brothers & our neighbors! The Schleich brothers are known for maintaining their close sibling relationship into adulthood - brought even closer together with Elyse in the picture!

She's the (sassy) sister they never knew they needed.

Co-Best Men

Jordan Schleichkorn

shares Elyse's middle-child qualities (loyal, reliable, always right) & makes excellent pizza!

Avery Schleichkorn

the life of the party . . . most likely to stay up until dawn & engage you in controversial conversation

Groomsmen

John Dickson

the fun-organizer & a strict enthusiast, a childhood friend notoriously known for making mischief

Robert Shintani

childhood Montessori friend who helped Aaron sweep Elyse off of her feet (and into the air!) piloting a private flight over the City of Chicago for an early and memorable date

Sean McGovern

fellow Bradley University graduate & fraternity brother - they met in math class, but their common interests in the outdoors and live concerts kept the friendship alive

Paul Krenger

next-door neighbor of the Schleichkorn family - shared many carpool rides to Montessori & baseball practice

Eli Wade-Scott

the Yin to John's Yang as a straight-and-narrow planner & host of the annual halloween costume party, where Elyse met everyone for the first time!

Jordan Stacey

the eldest Stacey & the leader of the friend group in marriage, fatherhood, and playing by the rule-book

Julian Stacey

"The Stacey and Schleichkorn boys" has an undeniable ring to it and references the core group of friends these men grew up in. Julian is the wild card and has centered his career around his family's passion for music.
