July 23rd 2022, Matt and Katie boarded a sail boat called "Starlight" for a private sail that left from Bowen's Wharf in Newport, Rhode Island. Matt packed a picnic lunch and proposed to Katie on the bow of the boat in front of the Newport Folk Festival in the salty summer breeze. When they returned back to Katie's parents house, Matt had all their friends and family waiting with a surprise Engagement party! They will be married at Regatta Place in Newport Rhode Island that sits right on the bay where he asked her to marry him.
