Matt and Katie's journey began in the operating room of a small community hospital in Lewes, DE. Katie, a dedicated nurse specializing in orthopedic cases, and Matt, a new employee at a company assisting surgeons, bonded over their shared passion for orthopedic surgery. From their very first conversation, Matt knew he wanted to get to know Katie better. Katie found Matt attractive, but did not think their lives would align. Despite Matt's subtle advances, Katie remained oblivious, and for the next two years, they built a strong working friendship. In January 2024, Matt decided to try once more to ask Katie out. He invited her to a Ravens football game with his family. Initially, Katie declined, but soon reconsidered and accepted the invitation. At the game, their connection was undeniable, and love blossomed instantly. Since then, Matt and Katie have spent countless hours together in the operating room, cooking meals together, enjoying time with their families, working out at the gym, and cherishing each other's company. On December 6, 2025, Matt surprised Katie in Lewes with a sweet proposal when Katie said “Yes, of course!” Matt and Katie are excited about their future together and invite you to join them in celebrating this new chapter of their lives. Their wedding day will be a reflection of the love they share and a testament to God's perfect timing.
