Wedding Party
Tracy Mullins
Bridesmaid
A heart of gold doesn't do justice to describe this beautiful woman. Melissa met Tracy a few years ago through a mutual friend but they haven't wasted any time packing in the forever memories. Tracy is always up for a good time and has been a great support system through everything life has thrown at Melissa this year.
Brooke Kaufman
Bridesmaid
Brooke and Melissa met through work and became good friends while on a business trip to San Diego, (Brooke missed her flight home because she had so much fun with her new friend LOL). They both work at two separate properties but talked on a daily basis for support and sometimes a good laugh or cry. They love jamming in the car with the music up and the windows down and are always up for a good beverage and some can jam. Brooke and Melissa are the exact opposites, but fit together to make the perfect duo.
Mia Dorman
Bridesmaid
Mia was one of Melissa's first girlfriends when she moved back to Ohio in 2014. Mia introduced Melissa to a few people in Columbus that have become very close friends. Mia is loud and proud and will do anything for her people and those in need. She makes a good martini and they always find a way to have a good time with lots of laughs.
Rachel Joppeck
Bridesmaid
Rachel is Kevin's little sister! Melissa is pumped to soon be able to call this amazing woman her sister and gain an adorable nephew and niece in the process!
Kristie Powless
Bridesmaid
Kristie is Melissa's new sister in law! She married Melissa's little (not so little) brother Chris in May, 2021! Melissa gained a sister and two nephews and couldn't be happier!
Lance Kinsey
Bridesmaid
Lance and Melissa worked together in Gahanna and he quickly became her work husband and close friend. Lance was first on scene when Melissa was in a car accident and hasn't left her side since!
Kyle Cook
Best Man
Kyle has been through it all. Shared a room, shared places to live, shared several bottles of you name it! He's been a the voice of reason in the Journey of Kevin's fun adventurous life! Kevin wouldn't be the person he is today without him.
Bryan Russo
Groomsman
Bryan and Kevin met "officially" in college. Kevin felt bad for Bryan because all the big kids at the time wouldn't hangout with him (Bryan was close to 300lbs). They were instantly connected for being loyal Cleveland fans. Kevin quickly learned that Bryan's competitive nature and giant heart makes him one of the best friends anyone could ask for.
Tyler Whitney
Groomsman
There's not much Kevin and Tyler haven't gone through together. Skip (Tyler's dad) and Jimbo (Kevin's dad) were extremely close friends, which brought Tyler and Kevin closer. They've been together since kindergarten and Kevin was definitely a worse influence on Tyler than the other way around. Tyler was a pro at start bonfires for Kevin and Thomas to just "show up" to enjoy. Tyler definitely has a losing record in driveway dunkball to Kevin.
Thomas Dulemba
Groomsman
Thomas has been Kevin's right hand man since kindergarten. Everything from cross the ocean, sports, teaching him how to accept a loss in driveway baseball, dominating Super C, or relaxing around a bonfire... too many memories to share and many more to come! Thomas has been a ride or die for the last 30+ years!
Chris Powless
Groomsman
Chris is Melissa's "little" brother!! Chris and Kevin continue to grow a nice bond. He's dedicated, caring, and loyal! Kevin was fortunate enough to have his first paintball encounter with Chris. There has been many great memories, thus far... with soooooo many more to come! Kevin couldn't have asked for a better brother-in-law.
Sawyer Vance
Groomsman
Sawyer and Kevin have been close for a long long time. On top of flashlight tag, sports, working at the golf course together... they now both share the same haircut. (good looking dude!!)
