In the summer of 2012, Clare and Keith met through a mutual friend at Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tennessee. The two were drawn to each other immediately. However, they parted ways, because they never thought they would see one another again. That October Clare’s brother, who worked in the music industry, begged her to attend Austin City Limits last minute to meet with one of his networks. She agreed and was completely shocked to find the man she was sent to meet with was Keith - the handsome man she crushed on at Bonnaroo! The pair rekindled and spent the rest of the time getting to know one another. Before Keith headed back to his home in Nashville, he asked Clare to come visit him. The rest is history, or maybe just fate! Clare and Keith dated long distance for a year before Clare decided to move out to live with him. One morning in March, Keith asked Claire out to lunch at one of their favorite, old neighborhood haunts, the Frothy Monkey. It’s actually where they had their first official date! Clare should have known right then that Keith was up to something, but she didn’t expect a thing. After lunch, in the park across the street, Keith got down on one knee, pulled out his grandmother’s ring out of his pocket and asked her to spend the rest of her life with him. The couple planned a destination wedding with all of their dearest family and friends in Santa Fe on May 13th.
