Our Story - the EPOur Story - the EP

Our story begins back in 2010, when Matt was visiting Jacksonville from Mizzou and Brent was attending UNF. Life moved on, but a few years later, the universe brought us back together. Matt had returned to Jacksonville, and Brent was moving home from NYC to work for the One Spark festival. Brent needed a place to live—and Matt just so happened to have an open room in his Southside townhome. Brent’s friends told him it might not be the best idea to move in with the guy he thought was cute, but he did it anyway. Safe to say, we didn’t stay roommates for very long. By March 2014, we were officially dating. Since then, we have built a life together. Our journey has been filled with love, adventures, and plenty of projects. One of our favorites? Buying and restoring a historic home together. In April 2024, the house turned 100 years old, and we opened it up for the Riverside Avondale Preservation Home Tour. Thousands came to see the renovation, helping raise funds for the neighborhood preservation association. The following weekend, we threw a centennial celebration with our closest friends, family, and neighbors. And then—Matt went completely off the script Brent wrote and proposed on April 20, 2024. That surprise moment? It might just be the spark that set Lover Fest in motion.

About Lover Fest 2026About Lover Fest 2026

Lover Fest 2026 is where travel, food, relaxation, and romance come together for one unforgettable weekend. Yes, we’ll be tying the knot—but this isn’t just about us. It’s about giving all of you a getaway to celebrate love, friendship, and life with us. We want this to feel like more than just a wedding—it’s a full-on experience. A festival-style wedding captures our love for creating experiences, as Brent gets to flex his event planning muscles, a destination wedding speaks to our wanderlust, and what better place to enjoy our favorite type of food (Mexican) and drinks (margaritas) than Mexico!
