It all began on May 31st, 2019, when Kaitlyn, armed with a glass (or a pitcher) of liquid courage, made the first move on Tinder. They say intoxication leads to poor decisions, but in this case, it led to the best one.

What followed was a month of the most adorably awkward oblivion you’ve ever seen. Despite the universe practically screaming “YOU TWO BELONG TOGETHER!” with neon signs, Kaitlyn and Micah somehow managed to friend-zone themselves. Instead, they bonded over Star Wars marathons, hikes, kayaking, and a masterclass in hanging out platonically.

Everything changed on July 10th. Kaitlyn introduced Micah to her friends through a day of adventure that included hiking, blind cliff-jumping, a movie, and—oh yes—skinny dipping. As it turns out, Kaitlyn’s friends were much better at reading the signs. Their solution? They dared Micah and Kaitlyn to go sit on a sand dune naked together. At that moment, Micah said, “Well, I guess this can’t get any more awkward. Do you wanna go on a date?” (Spoiler alert: she said yes.)

Over the next four years, they made memories on Kaitlyn’s college campus—attending events, drinking too much, dodging campus security (not always successfully), and cleaning up Amber’s vomit. Through it all, they thrived and built the foundations for their forever relationship.

Kaitlyn had one steadfast rule: no proposing until after graduation. But Micah was already planning ahead. In 2022, he secretly organized the ultimate engagement trip, disguised as a Christmas gift. On June 3rd, 2023, just 5 days after Kaitlyn graduated, Micah popped the question—and she said yes!

Fast forward to September 22nd, 2024, when another major milestone in their story took place. What was it? You’ll have to attend the wedding to find out!

Now, here we are, preparing to say “I do” on July 12, 2025. We can’t wait to celebrate with you and for you to be part of the next chapter in Our Story!
