It all began in 2012 at Mission Viejo High School, where Matthew and Shelby first crossed paths as teenagers. Although they didn’t start dating until 2017, their connection eventually blossomed into a love story worth waiting for.

Throughout college, they balanced their studies and a long-distance relationship. Shelby attended the University of Nevada, Reno, while Matthew went to Cal State Fullerton. Despite the miles, their bond only grew stronger.

Since then, Matthew and Shelby have built a life full of love, shared adventures, and time spent in the great outdoors. Whether hiking scenic trails or enjoying the sunshine at the beach, they are always together, making the most of every moment. In 2022, they welcomed their puppy, Kleo, into their lives, completing their little family.

Now, they are excited to celebrate the next chapter of their journey with all of their loved ones in September 2025!
