Devon & Connor
Wedding Party
Erin Hall
Maid of Honor
Devon and Erin are childhood best friends. They met on the school bus at the age of 6. The two of them have remained best friends even though they have not lived in the same state for more than three months every few years. She went to The University of Alabama, so make sure to yell "Roll Tide" at her a lot. In their time together, Devon and Erin have managed to go on lots of wild adventures across the country and have even been questioned by some Mounties about how much maple syrup they were bringing back stateside. Now living in Dallas, Texas with her kitty Banjo, she enjoys pistachio ice cream, Coca Cola, and petting cats.
Kirby Jem Gallagher
Best Man
Kirby is a man, arguably the best. He, Ty, and Connor shared a very antagonistic childhood that culminated in awkward rides to high school when Connor (finally) got his driver's permit at 17. To break up the awkward silence, Kirby would ruthlessly judge and ridicule all people they drove by, thus developing the brothers' shared sense of humor and less antagonistic adult brotherhood. Kirby is a graduate of Loyola University in Chicago and aspires to earn his Masters in Economics and work with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. He enjoys being alone, Moscow Mules, and having terrible opinions about everything.
Jessica Hutchins
Bridesmaid
Jessica is Devon's sister. She mostly goes by Jess. Jess and Devon are best friends and like to bake cookies together. Devon likes to hang out when Jess bakes because then she can snack on the dough or lick the bowl. Jess loves to play with the family dog, Casper, and read books, especially if they have anything to do with Harry Potter. She has been working at Goodwill for almost a decade now, and loves it! Every day she gets her Starbucks fix, and her favorite drink is probably the caramel macchiato, unless it's winter, then the peppermint mocha latte takes the crown.
Tynan Finch Gallagher
Groomsman
Ty is arguably one of the youngest siblings of the three brothers. Despite his slight frame (or perhaps because of it) he has the most developed social skills of the three brothers. After being mercilessly crushed at videogames throughout his entire childhood, he has risen to stardom as the most talented gamer of the family in his young adulthood (much to his brothers' chagrin). He is a talented writer and cultivates his academic ability with fiction writing. Of the three brothers he is second best in Lego and Bionicle construction, despite his eldest brother's efforts to hoard all the cool pieces. Ty is a student at Mount St. Mary's University and aspires to be a greater writer than Stephen King. Ty likes Minecraft, losing at arm wrestling contests, and telling Sully that he's a good boy.
Nicole Powers
Bridesmaid
Nicole has known Devon since she showed up to go camping with her troop in 7th grade. Devon was a lame 6th grader, who went to the rival school, but, Nicole didn't care and decided to become one of Devon's best friends anyway. They have enjoyed many days and nights running through the woods, roasting marshmallows, and crafting. Nicole and Devon's manta is, "No Evidence." Nicole lives in Enfield, Connecticut. She loves going on hikes, playing her tuba, and crocheting.
Joseph Remaniak
Groomsman
Joe is the catalyst to Devon and Connor's fateful encounter! Joe became friends with Connor during their Freshman year at Mount St. Mary's, they met on a Kairos retreat and quickly learned that they were very different people. Joe just couldn't forget the weird way Connor complained about working at the gas station and sought his mentorship in ROTC the following week. For better or for worse, the two synergized beyond control and became good friends in balancing ROTC stress and blowing off steam in the gym. Joe is an Air Defense Artillery Officer stationed at Fort Hood, TX, married to Katherine Remaniak and proud father to their son, Caleb! Joe likes Connor, Kamikaze shots, and Star Wars!
Amanda Turner
Bridesmaid
Amanda is Devon's first cousin. Amanda has been sitting next to Devon for every holiday and family dinner since forever, which means that Devon forces her to eat at least one brussel sprout whenever they are on the table. Amanda attended Johnson and Wales University, where she earned a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts. She loves to read books, especially historical fiction novels.
Sean Gallagher
Groomsman
Sean is the closest cousin in age to Connor and the two were best friends growing up. While they were never in the same class after pre-school, they earned their Eagle Scout in the same Boy Scout Troop and commiserated over many camping trips. One Gallagher summer vacations to Bethany Beach, Sean was unparalleled in his endurance in the surf. He would spend hours on end, whether it was 55 or 85 degrees, standing right where the waves break and got crushed over and over again. Where his weaker peers took one or two waves, he defied Poseidon until the Sun was setting. Sean likes chemistry, video game coding, and sleeping absurdly late.
Gabrielle Turner
Bridesmaid
Gabrielle is Devon's first cousin. She sits next to Devon's mom at family gatherings, escaping the brussel sprout tolls. She actually does not mind vegetables like Amanda does, so that is fine. Gabrielle enjoys spending time with her family and being outside. She is working on getting her degree in Business. She and Amanda have hopes to open their own bakery someday, where Amanda does the baking, and Gabrielle does the business-ing.
Joey Gallagher
Groomsman
Joey is the cousin closest in age to Kirby, making the Monrovia-Mt. Airy Gallagher clan 5 strong. While camping, Sean and Connor huddled under one tent sad about the rain and Joey and Kirby huddled under another exchanging Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Unlike the other four Gallagher boys, Joey played sports all throughout high school, taking great interest in football and lacrosse. Unfortunately for him, he traded his skill in videogames for his skills on the field, leaving him bottom of the leaderboard at Gallagher gaming sessions. Joey is currently apprenticing as an HVAC tech. Joey likes sportsball, gifting trash (literal trash), and dressing like his father on the weekends.
Shea McFarland
Bridesmaid
Shea and Devon first met their freshman year of college at Mount St. Mary's University. Shea and Devon were both on the softball team, had the same core classes, and were roommates. The two of them would never live together after that one year, but would remain two peas in a pod all four years. Shea stayed at the Mount to earn her Masters in Health Administration and is now a Occupational Therapy student at Wesley College in Delaware.
Nick Adams
Groomsman
Nick is the closest Shaheen cousin in age to Connor, so when they got to hang out in their late childhood they exchanged blueprints for Legos and Bionicles that neither had seen before. Nick was the first person to introduce Connor to airsoft guns and was also right by Connor's side when he accidentally shot Ty from about 200 meters away on accident and let Ty believe it was a random bee sting. Nick introduced Connor to In-N-Out and Egee's when he visited the Adams in Arizona during their college years. Nick is engaged to his wonderful fiancé, Amber, and they currently live in Montana. Nick likes Lego Batman, kind people, and Gorillaz.
