We met at a mutual friend's party in late November of 2015. Will Ferrell, Tequila, Dancing, and Fate brought us together. After that, Amy made the first move, but Matthew beat her to the proposal.
During a beach trip in 2019, Matthew's plans to propose went haywire because nothing ever goes according to plan. Matthew ended up proposing earlier than he expected out of nerves and excitement. Under the moon, Matthew knelt down on the beach, ready with a speech that he never got a chance to give. Amy didn't know what was going on, and once the ring was on, she ran away and twirled in the ocean, while Matthew was yelling "Don't let the ring slip off!" She ran back to give Matthew a definite "YES!" and twirled some more. Although this was not the proposal Matthew had planned, he wouldn't expect anything else from his future wife.
