We met through my best friend Katie when we were juniors in high school. We both were at Katie’s birthday party and Matt kept getting mad because my iphone text tone kept going off. He asked if I could shut it up, but I just laughed it off. He left the party early and I stayed at Katie’s. A couple weeks later he told Katie he wanted my number. We talked while he was at DECA state and the rest is history.
We were on a trip to Europe. We just finished in Amsterdam and were heading to Italy on the Amalfi Coast. The same day we got in we headed to the island of capri for a private boat cruise. We shopped a little bit and then went on the boat around 5. We were on the boat maybe 30 minutes after going under a rock formation and our driver turned us around to face them. I was minding my own business when Matt told me to come here. It felt like slow motion and when i saw the ring there is no question in my mind I was saying yes! And now it is finally time to get married to my high school sweetheart!
