We're tying the knot!

Austin and Kait first crossed paths as students at Carroll University, catching each other’s eye across the library. From that moment on, something sparked — and let’s just say, Kait wasn’t afraid to make the first move. After a few months of playful pursuit (and realizing just how much they had in common), they started dating… and quickly discovered it was love. Through all the late-night study sessions, coffee runs, and campus life, they supported each other every step of the way. Austin earned his Bachelor’s in Nursing, while Kait went on to complete a partnership program, graduating with her Bachelor of Science and a license in Sonography. After graduation, their adventure took them across the country to sunny Phoenix, Arizona — where they built a life together for three years. Eventually, they returned home to Wisconsin, where they bought and renovated their first house together — a true labor of love that reflects their teamwork and shared vision. Then, in the stunning Smoky Mountains, Austin got down on one knee… and Kait said, "yes!" Now, after seven years of laughter, growth, travel, hard work, and unconditional love, they’re ready to make it official. From library glances to lifelong vows, Kait and Austin aren’t just a couple — they’re best friends, true loves, and badass partners for life.
