KAYCE & MATT

June 5th, 2026 · Milwaukee, Wisconsin

PLEASE JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE OUR WEDDING IN MILWAUKEE on June 4th & 5th, 2026!

OUR STORY

It was the summer of 2020 and the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. An uncertain, heavy time when the last thing on your mind is you’re about to meet your person. But we did. And it’s something we’ll always be grateful for. Even in the middle of a challenging chapter, something beautiful began.

Those early days were spent outside by necessity, but it turned out to be the best possible setting to get to know each other. Our first dates included patio drinks (shoutout Kasey’s Bar & Printers Row Wine), drive-in movies, camping trips, and long walks - sometimes 12 miles at a time. We connected quickly over our shared love of exploring and haven’t slowed down since.

If you know us, you know we love a good adventure - and even more, a great rooftop party in Chicago. After 5 years together filled with travel, laughter, and a lot of shared playlists, we’ve built a life we love, side by side. Whether we’re wandering through a new city or hosting dinner for friends, our favorite moments are the ones we get to share with the people we love most.

At the heart of our relationship is a deep friendship, a shared sense of curiosity, and a true appreciation for the people in our lives who make every moment more meaningful.

THE ENGAGEMENT

In the spring of 2024, we returned to the South of France for a two-week trip through France and Italy. We had just checked into our hotel in our favorite city, Nice, when Matt, unable to wait another minute, set up a secret camera, opened a bottle of wine, and invited Kayce onto the balcony. As the sun began to set over the Mediterranean, we toasted to the start of our trip. Then Matt got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever together. It was sweet, intimate, and perfectly us - the best way to kick off a dream adventure (and the rest of our lives).

THE WEDDING

We originally dreamed of a wedding abroad to share our love of travel with all of you, but logistically… not so dreamy. Luckily, we found Villa Terrace - a romantic, Italian-style villa perched above Lake Michigan that feels straight out of the Mediterranean (if you squint a little). It’s historic, beautiful, and holds the same sense of charm and wonder that first made us fall in love with Italy.

We can’t wait to bring everyone we love together for a day that feels like our favorite kind of night: a long, joy-filled dinner party under the stars with great music, lots of wine, and even better company.
