Scott grew up just outside of Pittsburgh and Katie grew up just outside of Cleveland. When it came time to go to college, Scott chose the University of Akron and Katie chose the University of Pittsburgh mere miles from where the other person grew up. Katie considered the University of Akron, but thought it was just a bit too close to home and Scott thought the same for Pitt. They kept just barely missing each other until they finally both wound up in Warsaw, Indiana for a co-op. Scott seized the opportunity to sit next to the cute girl during a training session and Katie was more interested in befriending the girls he lived with. Eventually word got back to Scott that Katie wouldn't reject him if he asked her out, so one month after they met they went on their first date. Five years, a move to Boston, and a pup named Murphy later, and now here we are!

For Scott's 26th birthday, Katie planned out a week long trip to Scotland. Little did she know that for the 5 months leading up to the trip, Scott had been carrying a ring around with him waiting for the perfect moment. The thought had crossed Katie's mind that one of their sightseeing tours might make the perfect setting for a proposal. Much to her surprise though, it did not happen on one of those tours. Instead, on a day when they had nothing planned, they were wandering around Inverness and wound up at Carnac Point (where the River Ness meets the sea) with no one else around Scott got down on one knee. Throughout the trip, as they had been traveling alone, they had been setting up their phones to record videos in order to get pictures of them both. As a result, and the cherry on top of an already perfect moment, was capturing the entire surprise proposal on video.
