Wedding Details:
The ceremony was held at Estill Cathedral Domain, outside on a cliff by the church. About 150 guest had been invited and, yes, all the other Boys were there. In fact, the ceremony started a half-hour late because Nick was LATE!! Nick, you don't do that on your bandmates wedding day!! Anyway, Kevin's brother, Tim Richardson performed the service. Kristin wore a biege dress with pretty flowers in her hair. She had two friends as her bridesmaids and they were all bare-foot. They walked down the aisle on rose petals. Kevin and his best men, one of them being Kevin's brother, Jerald Richardson Jr. They wore Versace suits and sandals. Kevin cried throughout the whole ceremony, including the exchanging of vows (awwwww). Also, an actress from One Life To Live read and talked about real love. At the reception, 3 Jazz musicians were hired for entertainment. Kevin and Kristin's wedding song was "I Knew I Loved You" by Savage Garden (which Darren Hayes said was an honor). AJ and Kevin had a deep, emotional conversation at the reception (about what, I don't know). Then after the reception, the newlyweds took off for the Capri Islands of Italy. Kevin has said that through the whole ceremony, he could feel his dad's presence everywhere.

Kristin was at the filming of the "I Want It That Way" video in Los Angeles (LAX to be exact) and I thought she was really nice. Kristin looked to be in her early/mid 20's and she was pretty without all that make-up the other girls wear. She definitely left a better impression on me than the others did. I'm glad to say I like her.
Kristin and Kevin were together backstage before Kristin went onstage to perform in a Cher concert.
Kevin happily accepted a hug and a kiss from Kristin at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards when the Boys won Viewer's Choice. One thing I will say: I hope Kevin and Kristen stay together for a long time cuz they both look really happy.

Kristin and Kevin went to the Any Given Sunday movie premiere in Los Angeles. They seemed to be having a good time, especially Kevin since he's a huge fan of football. And I'm sure he and Kristin are making the most of Kevin's offtime. Here's a picture of them arriving:
Kristin was with Kevin when he attended the Oscars with Howie and Claudia. Here are some pictures at the Oscar after-party:
Kristin attended the Barnstable-Brown Gala with Kevin and also accompanied him to the Kentucky derby races. I bet she was just as excited when the horse Kevin bid on won.

The movie, Rock Star starring Mark Wahlberg and Jennifer Anniston will also feature a small part for Kristin. She plays a rock band groupie. But you'll have to look really close 'cause Kristin's wearing a black wig over her blond hair. Also, Kristin can't wait until the farm in outside of Lexington, Kentucky is ready to be moved into 'cause she really wants to buy a horse. She already has the name picked out: Bohemian Earth. She says it's a reflection of her heritage since her grandmother was Czechoslovakian.

What's this!?! Kevin actually kissing a girl??? Well, here's the story. Her name is KiKi, she helped the Boys former stylist Angie with the clothes. She was in charge of all the washing and dry-cleaning and hanging up clothes and stuff like that. She was a member of the crew. It's just a friendly kiss, believe me. I got the info from Tommy Smith, the former keyboard player in the BSB Band.
You all have probably heard of Kevin's former girlfriend, Beth, right?? Well, here's a few things I've learned about her. She was six years older than Kevin, and she met Kevin (who was 19 at the time) in Orlando shortly after his father died. They started seeing each other, than after a year, they got engaged. But soon Kevin realized that he was becoming too dependant on her, so they ended the relationship. That's the story.
My Opinion of Kristin
I LOVE HER!! I think she is absolutely awesome and I'm so happy Kevin married her. She was always nice and sweet whenever I saw her and to others fans as well. She is my favorite Backstreet Girlfriend. I still consider her a "girlfriend" because she's is. Being married to Kevin makes her one for life. I wish her and Kevin the absolute best in their future together.
