In the summer of 2015, John and Katie met in the Hamptons. John was "Ryan's friend" and Katie was "Ryan's little sister." Little did she know, (and especially little did Ryan know) Katie became John’s new favorite Kilduff. After their first kiss at John Scott’s (yep), Katie went home to Long Beach the next morning still smiling. To the point where her dad asked her, “What’s up with you? You meet Prince Charming last night or something?” When the summer ended and they wouldn't be able to spend more Drift evenings together, John gave Ryan the heads up he was going to ask Katie on a date. With John in Hoboken and Katie in Yonkers, they met in the middle and went to The Smith in Manhattan (classic). It was the beginning of what was considered a "long distance relationship" to some, but they made it work. After many train rides and Ubers later, John crossed the Hudson one last time when they moved to Tuckahoe, NY together in 2019. A year and a half later, John proposed to Katie on October 23rd 2020, right outside of their apartment building where they enjoyed so many happy memories together. It was perfect. Now, Katie and John are living in their home in Crestwood, NY and are so excited to be married on June 17th 2022!
