Megan and Matt met in September of 2020. Adhering to appropriate covid guidelines (like the good rule followers they are...or at least Megan is...) they shared their first date outside at the beautiful Causeway in Colchester, Vermont. The date was planned to last only a couple of hours, but six hours later the two were smitten and couldn't get enough of each other.

Matt moved from Boston to Burlington that fall so the two could spend time growing their relationship. They spent many sunny days and starry nights at the Doherty's family camp in Malletts Bay and almost 100 snowy days on the slopes at Sugarbush Mountain. The best choice to-date was Matt's "spontaneous" decision to adopt a puppy in March of 2021. Thank goodness for the genius minds behind Petfinder because they united us with our most beloved, sweet pup, Ellen (named after Sugarbush Mountain's peak, Mount Ellen).

In the Fall of 2021, Megan moved Matt back to Boston when she began her graduate school program at Tufts University. Matt, Ellen, and Megan settled into South Boston spending quality time with friends and family close by, exploring the city's finest, and of course working hard.

Slightly fueled by impulse and mostly fueled by love, the couple bought their first home in Hopkinton, New Hampshire in June of 2022. Ellen's dreams came true when she discovered the vast lawn, adjusting quickly to her suburban lifestyle. Since moving to NH, Matt and Megan have enjoyed racing on Pats Peak's beer-league ski team, hosting Thanksgiving, and exploring the area's taverns and trails.

Matt pulled off the biggest surprise of all when he proposed to Megan at Waterfront Park on Lake Champlain in June of 2023. Like the incredibly dreamy man he is, Matt made sure the proposal was intimate and thoughtful. He coordinated with immediate family and ensured they were hiding nearby to celebrate with the couple after Megan said, "yes!".

That brings us here, today! We are so excited to celebrate with you at our picturesque venue located in Grand Isle, Vermont on September 28th, 2024. Please review the website for more details.
