Hi, I'm Nikki Slyman and I'm thrilled to join in this celebration of love as Matron of Honor! I live in the greater Cincinnati area with my husband Chad. I enjoy spending time with Chad and my two sons Aldo and Bodhi. We are welcoming our third son in October 2025.

Hi, I'm Tyler! Devon’s brother, husband to my wife Amy and father to my 7 year old son Jackson. My family and I live in Charlotte, NC where I work as a regional VP in the banking industry. I love playing golf with friends, spending time at the pool with my family and enjoying the beautiful NC sunshine.

Hi! I’m Shelby Isenhart. I live in the Kalamazoo area, where I run a community-centered yoga studio and a shared creative space above it. I’m also a stay-at-home parent for a cutie two year old, which basically means I work full-time in pajamas and I spend a lot of time pretending to be a dinosaur or a monster truck. In my free time — I like listening to music and making playlists. Lately I’ve been rotating Cat Stevens, Beastie Boys, Kendrick Lamar, and Doechii. I also like taking walks outside, creative writing, watching documentaries, and reading two books at a time and finishing half of each… or reading four books in a week. No in-between. Thankful for these years of friendship with Von. Years of long talks, walks interrupted by crying babies, library visits, café hangs, and a really easy, beautiful friendship.

Hi, I’m Jeremy Searls — I’ve known Devon since 2015, when we met in Kalamazoo, MI. Since then, he’s been a mentor, a sounding board, and the kind of friend who always seems to have the right advice (we lovingly call him “Osho” for a reason). I now live in Orlando, FL, where I work in software and spend my free time kayaking Florida’s waterways, volunteering as various superheroes for critically ill children, and diving into whatever creative project has caught my attention that week. Devon’s been a big part of my journey, and I’m honored to celebrate him and Yvonne!

Hi! I’m Abby Crahan, Devon’s favorite (only) sister. I live in Asheville, North Carolina with my partner Jamie and our dog Twain. I am a data analyst with CVS Health. In my free time I can be found on our front porch reading my book, walking the dog around town, or visiting with friends at a taco place in town.  I recently spent a week with Von and Devon at the Intentional Yoga retreat in Costa Rica where they got engaged. Being able to spend that week together was incredibly special and I’m so glad to have been there for their special engagement day. I have many memories on the boat at Mullett Lake with my brothers and love spending time on the water with Devon in our happy place.

I'm Jamie, Devon's favorite brother-in-law. I live in Asheville, North Carolina with Abby and our pup Twain. In my free time I like to garden, canoe down rivers, or be out in nature. I love coming up to Michigan and exploring the beaches and forests, spending time with family, and hunting for little treasures from the beaches and in little towns. I've enjoyed getting to know Yvonne, and happy to have her as another sister in law!

Hi, I’m Ania Goins! I live in Ferndale, Michigan with my husband, Ryan, and our dog, Pixel. I work as a Bird Keeper at the Detroit Zoo, and outside of work, I’m an avid puzzler, indoor plant enthusiast, and amateur stained glass artist. I also love reading, birding, spending time with friends, and going on walks with Ryan and Pixel. I’ve known Devon since 2014, when I moved to Kalamazoo, and met Von not long after they started dating. From the moment I met Von, we all knew she was a keeper! I’m so excited for these two and can’t wait to watch their love grow into a beautiful garden.

I’m Ryan Goins. Devon and I first met in 2014 as neighbors in Kalamazoo. Through a series of pranks, late-night ice cream runs, and beach days with our dogs, it didn’t take long for us to become close friends. These days, I live in Detroit with my amazing wife Ania, our pup Pixel, and we’re counting down the days until we welcome our first kiddo this October. During the week, I lead product at a software startup in Grand Rapids. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me tinkering with my 3D printer or trying to perfect my latest bread recipe.

My name is Amy Crahan. My husband Tyler and I have been together for the last 15 years. I have 2 beautiful sons Jackson, 7 years old, and Marco, 24 years old. I live in Concord NC, I relish alone time, getting to bed super early, going to the gym to socialize with my friends, uh, I mean, pump some iron, cheering at Jackson’s sporting events and going on dates with Tyler. I love my in-laws. My favorite thing about Devon is his hugs. Thank God he has found Yvonne. I remember meeting her, being in complete awe, because she’s actually an angel in human form and I proceeded to ask her any and all questions that popped in my head. She’s an open book. One of my personal favorite things about her is getting to sing with her. She is so gifted. I’m super excited about their wedding. I can’t wait to continue making so many more memories.

Hi, I’m Josh Cook — a groomsman, old friend, and probably the guy holding the bourbon or fixing something with a tool in hand. I live in St. Pete with my wife Megan and our dog Fred. Life’s taken us all over — from cross-country motorhome trips to building businesses. By day, I work in startups, now on robotic bartenders. By weekend, I’m usually on a bike, flying small planes, at a cafe or donut shop. Life’s been good — especially when shared with great friends, strong coffee, and the kind of people who say yes to a sauna and cold plunge. Let’s celebrate.

I am Chad Slyman and will soon be Devon’s brother-in-law. I'm overjoyed to officiate the ceremony and join Yvonne and Devon as a wedded couple. I'm married to Yvonne's sister Nikki since 2018 and together we have two beautiful sons, Aldo & Bodhi, and a third on the way. When I'm not selling Pepsi to Kroger, I enjoy all things Pittsburgh sports, Everton football club, and coaching Aldo’s soccer team!

Hi! I'm Aldo, Sissy's (Yvonne's) nephew! I am 5 years old and I'm a big brother to Bodhi who is 1 years old. I also have another brother coming! I love to play sports and especially soccer!!!!!

Hi, I'm Charlotte! I'll be 4 in July! I go to Light of Christ Montessori and my favorite things are playing outside, lunch, and playing with my brother. My favorite thing to do with Devon and Von is taking the boat to get ice cream at Chicken House!

Hi, I'm Evan! I'm 4 years old, and I love to play games, read books, and go to Chicken House with Devon and Von! My favorite memory is when they asked me to be a flower girl!
