Katie and Collin met the modern way: by swiping right on Tinder (swoon!) on March 7, 2017. Their first date was the next day at Social Tap in Old Town Scottsdale. They had nachos, ice cream, beer and were inseparable the rest of Spring Training. Katie spent baseball season that year driving to meet Collin at different minor league fields all over California while he traveled with the Visalia Rawhide. In 2020 Collin and Katie decided to spend the summer in Gulf Shores, Alabama where Collin went to high school. They fell in love with the white sandy beaches and southern hospitality so, they went back to Arizona to pack their things and bought a house in Gulf Shores in March 2021. They can't wait to share all of their favorite things about the area with you! Collin proposed on March 8, 2022, The 5 year anniversary of their first date, on the dock at his Aunt's bay house in Orange Beach. The home has been passed down in Collins family for generations and is where Katie and Collin lived and spent all of their time their first summer in Alabama. They go over to watch the sunset on the dock often so Katie thought it was a typical night watching the sunset. Collin proposed in the rain, with a double rainbow over their heads. Aunt Susie was there to capture photos and the dolphins stopped by to say congratulations! It was the perfect proposal! After almost 6 years together they can't wait to tie the knot with all of their family and friends there to celebrate with them! They are so excited to share their story and love with all of you!!
