Holly: One night in my Bayview apartment, I was scrolling through the apps (if you know you know) and I came across a picture of Maddy. Her beauty was (and still is) captivating. Without much conversation, I immediately asked her to go on a date with me. That same week, we grabbed tacos and margs. Some would say the rest is history... Maddy: Our first date felt so easy and natural, and it wasn't long before we had plans to see each other again. The week after, we wandered around the art museum and spent the evening getting to know each other. For example, Holly learned that I was lactose intolerant after getting us pizza for dinner, and I learned that Holly can slam an entire pizza in one sitting when she puts her mind to it. Little did we know that there would be so many treasured memories in that first summer of us dating. We went to the humane society together to adopt our cat, Mariska. We went on picnics, relaxed on the beach, celebrated the Bucks 2021 championship, met each other's families, and started talking about our future together. Holly: We explored different cities--Milwaukee to Green Bay, Chicago, and even St. Louis. Maddy taught me all about the Green Bay Packers and I taught her about field hockey. I taught her about being a "road dog" and she taught me about the value of a plane ticket. We learned how to love each other from afar when we spent a year going back and forth from Milwaukee to Fond du Lac, WI. After we had enough of that, we found an apartment together in the city where our story started. Maddy: Fast forward to the summer of 2024, we couldn't be more excited to begin this next chapter of our lives together as the newest Goreckis. Our love story includes our loved ones and we are so grateful to celebrate with all of you!
