We first met in high school over a decade ago. Kyle was the cool Hollywood actor and Katelyn was the AP class nerd and athlete. Even when Kyle was studying at UCLA and Katelyn at UCSB, our mutual friend group made our individual friendship grow stronger. After college, we couldn't deny we had a crush on each other. After a couple of years of flirting and dating, it became undeniably clear that we were made for each other. Our mutual love for travel and the beauty of the natural world has always ignited our romance and passion. We decided to move in together after scuba diving with manatees in Belize, and we got engaged at the end of an amazing week discovering the awe-inspiring sights of Puerto Rico (the picture below captures that amazing moment 2 years ago). It's been 5 years together filled with adventure, silliness, and unbelievable happiness. It's only fitting that we get married on the beautiful beaches of Santa Barbara County where we shared our first apartment together. We cannot wait to share our special day with our friends and family who have always rooted for us!
