Take a trip down memory lane with us as we share pictures of our love story and favorite moments together.

Our first date: The Hideout in Waikiki. It all started when Katharina snuck up behind Ricky and poked him in the rib, definitely a first impression he’d never forget

One of our first dates featuring a surprise charcuterie board and epic ocean views. Still one of our favorite memories to this day

Our first adventure together: 8-mile hike to a secret tide pool in flip flops (that was sold as a quick walk to Ricky haha)

Ricky's first time in LA. Running around all the touristy spots and taking cheesy couple pictures because why not

Ricky planned a surprise birthday party for Katharina with our friend Dana. We all love a good Polaroid picture

Our first international trip together roadtripping through Europe. We drove through Switzerland, France, Liechtenstein, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany & Austria

Next stop: Paris, the city of love, where Ricky surprised Katharina with a romantic dinner in the Eiffel Tower

We ended our trip in Vienna spending quality time with Katharina's family & friends and eating the best pastries and chocolate

Ricky's 36th birthday. Katharina planned a surprise trip to Vegas. This picture says it all haha

Air Force Ball in Honolulu. We loved dressing up and being part of such an amazing event... so much that we already have tickets for the next one

Halloween in West Hollywood. We were so stressed putting on this make-up that just went everywhere but it turned out better than we thought

Thanksgiving in Austin. Katharina's first time meeting Ricky's family. One of the highlights was Bennett asking Katharina if he can call her "aunt Katharina", such a precious moment

Dec 11th, 2024, the moment that changed everything. Ricky proposed to Katharina on their anniversary at one of their favorite sunset spots, Spitting Caves

Ricky's holiday party, our first date as an engaged couple, where Katharina won a huge TV at the raffle but not really because they gave it to someone else with the same name ("Kat") haha

Date nights in Waikiki are our favorite. We love grabbing dinner at Duke's, watching the sunset and wandering around buying random Hawaii things or paintings because we only have 100 already at home

Lanikai pillbox hike overlooking our favorite beach on the island. We have so many fond memories here with our engagement photo shoot being one of them

Christmas & NYE in Australia. We hung out with kangaroos & koalas, went free diving in the Great Barrier Reef and watched the NYE fireworks at the Sydney opera house. We loved every moment of our trip

New Year's Eve, watching the fireworks at the Sydney Opera House. What this picture doesn't show is that we got there at 9am and waited for 15 hours...believe it or not, it was worth it though

Ricky planned a trip to Kauai for Katharina's birthday. We hiked along the breathtaking Napali coast, one of the most picturesque places in Hawaii

Katharina's favorite movie is Lilo & Stich so we had to do mandatory stop in their "hometown" Hanapepe

Family trip to Kure Beach, North Carolina. Quality time and so many fun memories with Ricky's family. Pictured here us being goofy with Mia, Ryan and Bennett on the car ride home

5/6/25, the day of our sunrise engagement photo shoot at Lanikai. It started raining for a brief moment and then suddenly a double rainbow stretched across the sky. The island was blessing our love :)
