Matthew and Maddy met during their first week of college, when they went with some mutual friends to a sale at the local Shopko. They quickly became each other's best friend, spending every day together watching movies and TV, and playing video games with each other and their friends. After a couple months Matthew asked Maddy to go out on a date. They got ice cream at Baskin Robbins, and the rest is history!
Maddy and Matthew had planned a vacation to Disney World together to celebrate Maddy's graduation from college. They had been discussing getting engaged after she graduated, but Maddy wasn't sure whether or not Matthew would propose on their trip. They spent their first day at Disney World in Magic Kingdom, and at the end of the day they made sure to find a good spot to watch the fireworks show. When the show was over, Matthew got down on one knee and asked Maddy to marry him. She was crying so much she was barely able to say "yes"!
