Our love story began on the beach of Belle Isle during the summer of 2019. Our connection quickly grew into a deep love, and as we introduced each other to our families and friends, the support we received confirmed that our romance was something out of a story book. We began our future together in the fall of 2020 when we moved into a home in Berkley, Michigan, creating memories and strengthening our bond. Drawn to a more urban lifestyle, we relocated to an apartment in downtown Detroit, with a window overlooking the bistro where we shared our first date. Falling in love with the city has been effortless, and countless more memories are woven into our relationship. Recognizing the city's significance in our love story, Rob orchestrated a proposal at Kate's favorite place in Detroit—the Detroit Institute of Art—on June 17th, 2023. Tears were cried, and champagne was shared at one of our beloved locations in the city, surrounded by Kate's brother and best friend, who will stand by our side as the best man and maid of honor. As we embark on the journey of becoming husband and wife, we are overjoyed to be surrounded by our nearest and dearest. Our love story has been a whirlwind of laughter, memories, and growth, and we are overjoyed to be continuing this beautiful chapter together. Thank you all for allowing us the honor to have you in our lives. We are truly grateful for all of you to be joining us on this momentous occasion. With love, Rob & Kate
