Kate and Travis's love story began with an act of kindness that set the tone for everything to come. After matching on Hinge, Travis went out of his way to care for Kate even before they’d met in person, cooking six homemade meals and driving an hour to deliver them to her doorstep while she was recovering from COVID. Their first meeting was equally memorable, when Travis met Kate at a Kwik Trip gas station, space heaters in hand, ready to help her through a heating outage in her apartment. From there, they became inseparable, with Kate visiting Travis to enjoy his home-cooked meals and the easy companionship of his dog, Francis, who adored her from day one.

On March 14th—Pie Day—the couple celebrates their relationship with a shared pie, marking each anniversary with the sweet tradition. Then in April 2024, Travis took the next big step, proposing to Kate in the intimate quiet of their bedroom just before she left for work. Now, as they plan their wedding, they look forward to a lifetime of shared meals, cozy traditions, and a happily ever after that began with a knock on her door and a heartwarming meal.
