Matt and Katie went to Wheeling Jesuit University together from 2014-2018. The two met and became friends while they were on the Campus Activities Board. Matt was a senior and Katie was a junior when the two really started to hit things off. They continued to connect and, while on a fun retreat weekend, Matt wrote Katie a note asking her to be his girlfriend. Now here we are SIX YEARS later!

Matt and Katie had been talking about getting engaged for months. Katie started to think it would not happen. The two were on vacation with Katie's family at Myrtle Beach. They had done many things throughout the week, golfing, shopping, sun-bathing. working on puzzles... One evening, Katie went shopping with her sisters. When they got back to the condo, Katie opened the door to the hallway lined with candles, the lights were dimmed, Katie's family was around, and Matt was at the end of the hallway on his knee waiting to ask Katie the biggest question! You can guess what she said....
