The love story started at the well-known Cincinnati karaoke bar, Tostado’s, where laughter filled the air and the music flowed. Kelly, her older brother Evan and their mother, Sally were out and about roaming the Queen City, making one last stop at the iconic neighborhood bar. Sally, a beknownst matchmaker, decided it was time to mix up the night’s events as she spotted John from across the bar - tall, charming and clearly in his element. Moments later, Sally introduced John to Kelly and before they knew it, Kelly and John were center stage doing a timeless duet of Promiscuous Girl. John’s karaoke skills (or lack thereof) swept Kelly right off her feet. From that night on, they were inseparable. Their first vacation together was a family trip to Steamboat, Colorado and John immediately realized why the Gallagher’s chose The ‘Boat as their vacation oasis for so many years. Kelly and John spent many trips out in Steamboat snowboarding down the champagne powder slopes, and continued to make an adventure out of every visit there - from hiking, biking, golfing, boating, boarding and exploring. Steamboat became their little slice of heaven, just as it is for so many of the Gallagher relatives who have enjoyed vacationing there since Dora and Bob Gallagher, Kelly’s late grandparents, bought their first mountain property back in the 70s. Over the next seven years, Kelly and John have journeyed through life side by side. From their love story starting while Kelly was in college, to post-grad navigating long-distance, they never let the miles come between them. Later on, the two resided in Cincinnati for a few years, and then most recently made the big leap together, settling down as homeowners in Charlotte, North Carolina. John and Kelly's story started with a little help from mom, a dive bar and a serendipitous karaoke performance. As they prepare to tie the knot in the very place that stole their hearts as their relationship deepened, Kelly and John cannot wait to share their I dos with you in Steamboat Dreamboat.
