Holly and Matt met completely by chance. Holly was assigned a random roommate at High Point University that turned out to be Matt's best friend. As Holly and her roommate became closer, they started spending a lot of time at Matt's house. Holly and Matt started out as friends, but always seemed to be in sync. They would always laugh at each other and enjoyed many of the same things. On the very last day of school, they decided to be together even though they would be apart for the summer. They knew they had something special. After they both finished school, they moved to Raleigh, NC. Matt proposed on December 3rd, 2022 at the North Carolina Arboretum.
