Kerry Hadden & Matthew Lins

Our Story

We met at work and worked together for about a year before Matt left to go back to school. It was so nice to get to know each other as friends before we started dating. Our first date was on Matt's birthday, May 2nd 2004, and we got engaged on my birthday, December 9th 2011. We share many common interests; we both love travel, movies, music, and making each other laugh constantly. We also like to go camping and hiking with our Basset Hound, Elmer, when the weather is nice enough, which is about one month out of the year in Wisconsin! We've had a very happy life together so far, and we're both looking forward to many more happy years together. We're also excited to start a family after we get married.

Our Wedding

We chose Maui for our wedding because we were lucky enough to have visited once before, and we both had a great time. It's such an amazing place - beautiful, laid-back, and perfect for such a special occasion. We plan to have a quiet sunset ceremony on Kapalua Beach.

Our Reception

This is kind of in the air for now, but it's looking like we may wait until Spring or Summer of 2012.
