Brandon and Kaitlyn met on January 14th, 2023 at the Broadwater Hot Springs, through one of their mutual friends. They soon found out that we were both working at the State Capitol during the 2023 Legislative Session. Brandon was working for the Chief Clerk of the House, and Kaitlyn was working for a Law / Lobbying Firm.

A month or so passed by with occasional waves and side-hugs with one another in the halls of the Capitol, the not so subtle Instagram DMs, and swiping up on each other's stories. This was until Brandon let Kaitlyn know that he had accepted a job working for Congressman Rosendale in Washington D.C. and that he would be leaving the next week.

What did Kaitlyn do? She texted that mutual friend (hi Braxton!), and got Brandon's number. She was able to find out that some friends and him were going to Shellie's (IYKYK) later that night for a farewell dinner, and she invited herself along.

After the dinner at Shellie's, the group ventured back over to where Kaitlyn and Brandon first met, the Broadwater Hot Springs. This, essentially being their first date. The next day, Brandon asked Kaitlyn out to dinner at Silver Star Steakhouse (conveniently on a Friday during Lent when Kaitlyn could have nothing other than the fettucini alfredo, no chicken).

After those couple of dates, the looming reality that Brandon was about to move 2,200 miles away sunk in even more. They both know that they had to make something work, so they did just that.

After 2 months of long distance, Brandon came back to visit Kaitlyn for her birthday in April, and about a month later, Kaitlyn moved to Washington D.C. to work there over the summer.

Brandon proposed to Kaitlyn on May 30th, 2023, on the steps of the United States Capitol building, where she said the easiest “yes” of her life. They are extremely excited to be joined by family and friends to celebrate their marriage in July of 2024.
