Pass-Osterhoff Wedding

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you with love: Mr. and Mrs. Osterhoff!

Adam and Jamie united in marriage on board the Lake Lawn Queen during a sunset cruise on Lake Delavan. Family and friends celebrated under the stars, and it was a night to remember! It was a joy and honor to get to know the bride and groom and to officiate their wedding ceremony.

Enjoy a few excerpts from this special ceremony below.

It was not love at first sight for Adam and Jamie, but truly great things can take time. Adam and Jamie actually went to high school together, but they were not friends back then. During the events of 2020, Jamie posed a Facebook question about airport travel and Adam reached out to her to answer. Over time, the two went from former classmates to Facebook friends to drinking buddies to soulmates. In January of 2021, during a family trip to Florida, Adam proposed on the Fort Meyers pier, and they solidified their love and commitment to each other.

Today, Adam and Jamie are choosing to unite as one family and embark on the adventure of marriage together.

Adam and Jamie, along with their children, are now going to take some symbolic action to represent not only the union of Adam and Jamie but the blending of their families.

Adam, Jamie, Alexis, Mayson, Mylee, Alyvia, Alexa, and Ayden, this sand ceremony is a beautiful representation of the joining of your families. Each of you has chosen a unique color of sand, and that represents your individuality. As the grains of sand get combined into this one vessel, your lives blend together as one family. Each color will always be visible, just as your uniqueness will always remain. However, once these grains of sand intermix, they will become inseparable- just like your union and devotion to each other. You are creating a beautiful, colorful family.
