Katie and Brett met at the University of Denver.They both frequented a local bar called The Border where one night Katie walked in and Brett was smitten! He told himself that by the end of the night he would talk to her, but as he was about to, Katie was nowhere to be found. Disappointed, he left the bar, and as fate would have it, struck up a conversation with Katie’s best friend! Upon hearing Brett’s Canadian accent, she excitedly told Brett that she had a friend that talked just like him! And just like that, Brett met Katie! From the moment they met, they had an instant connection. Brett continued his hockey career, while Katie was accepted to dental school in Nebraska.Yet the two remained close and made long distance work, even thought at times there was 14 time zones between them! After seven years of dating, Katie was in Las Vegas for a dental conference when Brett surprised her by flying in to see her, took her to a beautiful Parisan restaurant and asked to her marry him! The two planned their Vail destination wedding for the gorgeous July 11th, and celebrated in the Rockies with friends and family!
