The story began at Fado Irish Pub in Atlanta on October 7, 2017. Matt frequented the local UF bar where he met Katie, his fraternity brother's little sister and a FSU grad. Both football teams lost that day, so the two bonded over Vegas bomb shots and hopped around the Buckhead bars until eventually ending up on the dance floor at Johnny's Hideaway. Matt's one and only move was a twirl which just so happens to be Katie's favorite. Three years worth of memories and bad eating habits later - the two dealt with a natural disaster, purchased a home, and introduced a furry little guy to the family. A few months ago Matt popped the question and Katie said "Yes." Here's to an exciting new chapter as husband and wife!
Matt proposed to Katie in their living room on the one-year anniversary of closing on their home. Matt's family came over for breakfast that morning and after a few minutes of croissants and catching up, the doorbell rang. Katie hopped up thinking it was an Amazon delivery, but to her surprise the Thompson family was standing at the door. After some serious confusion, Katie realized what was about to happen as Matt got down on one knee and proposed!
