Michael, an infamous hermit, was begrudgingly dragged to the every-so-classy Brother's Bar on Water Street in Eau Claire by a friend. There, he was graced by the presence of the loudest social butterfly this side of the Mississippi, Katie. After introducing himself as Wack, Katie walked away thinking that a fake name is not worth her time. As the night went on, Katie and Michael got to know each other as they talked about everything from Jesus, to dinosaurs, to construction barrels and everything in between. Michael proved his dedication later that week when he showed up to Katie's lizard's birthday party - with a gift. Then, she knew he was the one. They've been somewhat inseparable (thanks COVID) ever since. Wack is notoriously terrible at keeping secrets. He originally planned to propose in Florida but blew it when he asked if "there were mountains near Orlando that would look cool in pictures". Michael is actually great at geography. Not knowing that Florida is one giant swamp was red flag number one. Red flag two was that he asked this question one hour after watching the Schitt's Creek mountain proposal episode. Michael redirected and pulled off his first ever surprise when he popped the question in Door County the day after Katie's birthday. We are so excited to be married! Hope you can celebrate with us in June!
