Matt and Kelsey's love story is rooted in friendship. They first met in 2018 on a sunny summer day in Newport Beach. Kelsey was spending the day at a friends house for a denim themed party. Matt joined the party (sans denim) accompanying his roommate, who had recently taken an interest in one of Kelsey's friends. Matt and Kelsey hit it off quickly, chatting over cocktails and dancing at the beloved Malarky’s. Their friendship continued to develop over the next few years. Their love grew beyond friendship at the end of 2020, when Matt and Kelsey spent significant time together exploring the west coast mountain ranges. It became clear that their shared interest and friendship was more than that, it was love. After 3 years of adventures together including ski trips, scuba dives, hot air balloons and happy hours, Matt and Kelsey had clearly found their forever partner in crime. Appropriately, Matt proposed during a ski trip at the top of a mountain. Their love story is deeply rooted in California. They cannot wait to celebrate with you all in a special place that will soon hold even more treasured memories.
