Fall

Our Wedding

It all started on October 24, 2015 when Kate went out of her way to inform Steve that he was tall. Never hearing this fact before, Steve was blown away. He knew it was love at first sight but rather than overwhelm Kate, he walked away. Later that evening, they met again but for beers at the bar in the parking lot of the hotel they were staying at. Shortly after, they started dating. Steve proposed the fall of 2023 which brings us to September 27, 2025. The wedding!
