We’re getting married!

In 2016, Brittney began her first Masters level position at High Point Hospital. One afternoon at lunch she noticed a new face that she hadn’t met before. She asked her friend who he was and she replied “That’s Matt why? Do you think he’s cute?” Which Brittney indicated yes. Matt and Brittney were introduced to each other and began sharing stories about comic books and tattoos. Over the next few months Brittney got up the courage to ask Matt if he had a girlfriend. Sadly at the time, he was taken but over the next 2 years, Brittney and Matt stayed close as friends. Fast forward to January 2018, Brittney was out watching a play and decided to call Matt to see what he was doing. He conveniently had no plans and the two met up for drinks. By the end of the night, Matt was determined to tell Brittney how he felt and poured his feelings out to her. She was delighted to hear that the man she had been in love with for the last 2 years felt the same! The rest is history and here’s to forever!

Friday March 1st, 2019 It was a typical Friday night for Matt and Britt. It included a great dinner at A3 in Kingston where Matt had an amazing 40 layer lasagna and Britt enjoyed a bowl of penne a la vodka then it was on to axe throwing at PINZ. Matt asked Britt if she would like to go for a walk on the waterfront since it was a nice mild night, something that they haven’t had in awhile. Britt thought nothing of it since this was a normal occurrence for the two of them. Once they arrived, Matt took Brittney’s hand and began reminiscing about their lives together so far. Brittney noticed that a woman was trying to take pictures of the waterfront and brought this to Matt’s attention. He stated “are we in your way?” And she confirmed. As Brittney was attempting to move, Matt grabbed both of her hands and shared that he was not helping a friend earlier that day, he was in fact asking her father’s permission to ask her to marry him. He told her how much he loved her, got down on one knee and said “Brittney Leigh, will you marry me.” Brittney, who is in tears at this point, said YES! and jumped into his arms! Thankfully the woman was actually Matt’s friend from school and captured the moment and the happy couple in the moment in some beautiful pictures.
