Matthew and Katrina were introduced by a mutual friend. Katrina arrived at the Gaslight first and saw Matthew walk in; she was immediately intrigued by his beard. As they sat at the table, they talked with friends and each other but kept singing to the same songs. It took Matthew weeks to reach out to Katrina after meeting, the entire time she was waiting for him to call. Matthew called one night while Katrina was out bowling with friends. Nearly four years and two dogs later, Matthew asked Katrina to marry him with a ring he made on December 17, 2021.
