Kristen & Devon
Wedding Party
Alana Powers Marchman
Matron of Honor
Alana is Kristen's older sister. She lives in San Fransisco with her husband, George, and their dog, Dudley. Alana is the worlds best big sister. She is smart, funny and flippin' gorgeous. Alana is a Clemson graduate and was always the best host when young Kristen would visit! Alana works as an engineer for Techcera. In her spare time, Alana enjoys walking Dudley around San Fran to watch all the wacked out homeless people, Glamping(Glamorous Camping) and anything that is sparkly or expensive. Alana has been a HUGE help with all the wedding planning. She has done all the decorations and helped tremendously with the invitations. She's the bomb.com
Bizzy Powers
Maid of Honor
Bizzy (Elizabeth) is Kristen's younger sister. She is a tall glass of water!!! Like hot damn... Bizzy was there from the start of Kristens and Devons relationship. She was only 12 years old when she scared Devon away for a few weeks. (Don't worry, she likes him now) She lives in Jacksonville, Florida and works for South East Toyota Distributers as an Engineer. Biz is this fun, talented, smart girl who is a go getter! Bizzy has ALWAYS been there for Kristen and Devon! Bizzy, or Nator(short for Bizanator) as Devon calls her, knows a lot about trucks and cars. She always tries to talk about cool looking trucks with Kristen and Devon but they never have any clue what she is talking about. Bizzy is the best.... everyone should be more like this girl :P
Megan Gardner
Bridesmaid
Megan is Kristen's high school best friend. They met when they were freshman in high school and have been inseparable since. Megan has been there since the start of Kristen and Devon. We often joke that Megan is the "4th Powers sister" since she even resembles the Powers girls. Megan Graduated from JMU with a masters in education. She currently lives in Arlington, VA and works as a third grade advanced academic teacher. Megan (hopefully) plans on moving back to Pittsburgh. So if you are reading this and are in a position to hire an awesome, loving and passionate teacher, Megan is your chick! Megan loves everyone (even the super annoying people) and has a huge heart, especially for kiddos. This girl is the full package.
Megan McClain
Bridesmaid
Kristen and Devon met Megan when they were freshman at Ohio University. The first night they met, Megan fell down a full flight of steps and got a concussion... So their friendship started off on a bad foot, but look at it now! Kristen and Megan lived together in Pittsburgh after graduation. Megan currently lives in Cleveland, Ohio where she works as a Legal Real Estate Leasing coordinator for University Hospitals. There is never a dull moment when Megan is around. This girl is seriously the life of every party. Some times she can come off as shy... but don't let that fool you! She ain'ttttt. Be sure to check out her dance moves at the wedding. She's been practicing. P.S. Megan is also a groomsman
Allison Blong
Bridesmaid
Allison was Kristen's freshman roommate and first (and only for awhile) college friend. She currently lives in Cleveland, Ohio and works as an event manager for North Coast Media. Kristen and Allison have Facetime parties regularly.... gooood times. They sometimes last multiple hours. Allison is a rockstar friend and has a heart of gold. She gives the BEST advice and is always there for her friends. If you just had your heart broken or are annoyed with work drama, find her and she will hook it uppp. She really is better than any therapist out there. P.S. This marching band beauty loves a man who can play the Sax. ; ) ***Bonus points to any man who can play "All I Want For Christmas Is you" by Mariah Carey***
Lindsey Cohagan
Bridesmaid
Lindsey "Little Girl" lived next to Kristen and Allison their freshman year of college. Lindsey, being a year older, showed Kristen the ropes to college life and helped Kristen to get through that first semester of college. Lindsey, being a business major, helped Kristen to pass a business finance math class. (Thanks girl!) And truly is the only reason why Kristen (or Allison) ever left their dorm room the first semester of college. Lindsey lives in Cleveland, Ohio with her fiance, Srdjan, and their nutso dog, Oscar. She works as a business analyst for AmTrust. Lindsey has the worlds best laugh, and hearing it is enough to make you smile. :)
Jenna Lauer Kirkpatrick
Bridesmaid
Jenna is Devon's older sister. She lives in Pittsburgh with her Husband, Kevin, their two kids, Addison and Aiden, and their dog Maddie. Jenna is a High-power executive, at household inc... She also works part time for a senior care company where she does marketing and HR for the employees. Jenna is Devon's biggest supporter and rarely missed a football, baseball, basketball or hockey game Devons entire childhood.
Kevin Kirkpatrick
Best Man
Kevin is Devon's brother-in-law and best man. He has been in Devon's life since Devon was 9 making him more like a full blown brother. He lives in Pittsburgh with his wife, Jenna, their kids, Addison and Aiden, and their dog Maddie. Kevin is a Cloud Solutions Architect for Advizex, and knows everything there is to know about Apple and any/all forms of technology. Devon recently bought a new mac and turned down Apple Care because "Kevin is his Apple Care". He's the coolest computer nerd you will ever meet.
Bryson Powers
Groomsman
Bryson is Kristen's older brother and is probably the nicest person you will ever meet. He lives in Downtown Pittsburgh and works for AE Com as a chemical Engineer and designs well pads for the oil and gas industry. Bryson is an Ohio University Grad and the most social and friendly person out of the whole Powers bunch. Kristen and Devon can always count on Bryson to hook them up if they have no plans for the weekend. Bryson was the greatest big brother to Kristen. He always helped her with any math and science homework or studying and now he helps her with her "boring" social life. Bryson truly is a gem of a human.
George Marchman
Groomsman
George AKA Geo March is Kristen's brother-in-law and one of Devon's closest friends. George lives in San Fransisco with his wife, Alana, and their dog, Dudley. George is an engineer for a start up company and designs fancy robots that can pick stuff up and then put it down somewhere else... (or at least thats what Kristen and Devon have gathered from their conversations.) George is always a great time and enjoys wearing short shorts, and spending time with his wifey and dog. George was born and raised in Atlanta, GA and is a Clemson graduate. He is a die hard Clemson fan and has been to the past 3 National Championships where the Tigers won... It is guaranteed that he will be rocking Clemson socks (or some kind of gear) on wedding day.
Jake Alberts
Groomsman
Jake and Devon met in elementary school when they played on the same football and basketball team. Jake lives in Pittsburgh and is a branch manager for Enterprise Truck Rentals. Jake is the life of the party and is known to always wear mismatched socks... so if you have an extra pair or matching socks, bring them to OBX for Jake. Jake is a hard worker and is very dedicated to his career, his friends and his family.
