OUR STORY

The story of Jordan and Aiden is one built on a foundation of shared history and a lifetime of "almost" crossings. Their connection traces back years to the local ice rink, where Aiden and his brother played on the same hockey teams as Jordan’s cousins. Beyond the winter months at the rink, their childhoods were inextricably linked by the lake; while Jordan’s family spent their summers at her grandparents' cabin, Aiden’s parents were building a home just a few houses away. Those sunny months defined a classic Northwoods upbringing—filled with outdoor adventures, long days on the water, and endless rounds of card games.

By their junior year of high school, those childhood summers had evolved into a deep, foundational friendship. Although Jordan was initially hesitant to risk the bond they had built, Aiden’s steady persistence eventually won her over. On September 3, 2017, they officially began their journey as a couple.

The early years of Jordan and Aiden’s relationship were defined by mutual devotion and a "stronger together" mentality. Their partnership was tested early on when Aiden became a part of Jordan’s primary support system through a long concussion recovery. This period transformed their high school friendship into a resilient bond, proving they could navigate personal and physical challenges side-by-side.

As they moved into adulthood, the couple enrolled at the College of St. Scholastica. However, as the world shifted during the pandemic, so did their professional paths. Aiden chose to step into and grow his family’s business, while Jordan remained dedicated to her studies, graduating in December 2022. Through career transitions and the inevitable stressors of life, they proved time and again that they were stronger together.

Their lives became even brighter in July 2023 with the arrival of Wilson, their "lovable giant" St. Bernard. Bringing Wilson home was the culmination of weeks of excitement, adding a perfect, fluffy layer of joy to their daily lives. Less than a year later, in March 2024, Aiden pulled off the ultimate surprise by proposing during a family trip to Florida. Thinking the moment was still years away, Jordan was caught completely off guard and said "yes" without a moment's hesitation.

Most recently, the couple embarked on their biggest project yet. In November 2025, they sold their first home and moved into a new build that Aiden had been finishing for sale. After a whirlwind of custom changes to make the space uniquely theirs, they settled in just days before Christmas. Now, amidst the beautiful chaos of work, travel, and life with Wilson, they are counting down the days until they become husband and wife. Jordan and Aiden cannot wait to celebrate the start of this new chapter at The Hutton House with the family and friends who have been by their side through it all.
