Our Wedding

Athena & Matthew met at Nielsens Frozen Custard in Spring of 2024. Athena was there with her friends when Matthew approached them and offered to pay for her ice cream. They ended up chatting the night away and Athena decided to invite Matt to WhyKiki for some dancing since that is where her and her friends were headed. At the end of the night Matthew asked Athena on a more official date to the Aquarium the next day (pic is from our first date). 5 dates later Matt took Athena on a picnic date where he decided to ask her to be his girlfriend. Fast forward to Spring of 2025 They moved into a cute apartment together in March and Matt decided to take Athena on another picnic date in the same spot he asked her to be his girlfriend and proposed. The couple says they knew very early on that they wanted to spend the rest of lives together and are so excited for this new chapter!
