It all started when Caitlin's friend was on a surgery rotation at a hospital in Milwaukee. On her team, she noticed Brian; a medical student who was tall, musical, and a genuinely great person. This friend reached out to Caitlin, who was doing a PA school rotation in Seattle, and she agreed to be set up! So about a month later, after breaking the ice via text messages, they had their first date in Milwaukee. All it took was Korean BBQ, a dimly lit speakeasy, and a spontaneous car karaoke session on the way home for their relationship to spark. Their love for each other continued to grow and then in March 2020, along came Match Day for Brian; the day he found out he would have to move to Seattle for his surgical residency. Brian and Caitlin started a long distance relationship amidst a pandemic and began new jobs that were 2 time zones and 1,691 miles apart. Nevertheless, love found a way. In the form of daily FaceTime calls and racking up airline miles, the time and distance apart from each other only seemed to strengthen their relationship. After what seemed like an eternity, Caitlin found a job and made the decision to move out to Seattle. On April 22nd, 2022, in front of close friends and family, Brian asked his best friend to marry him! Now, they are looking forward to celebrating their love with you all on September 8th, 2023!
