Celeste and Matthew’s love story began on their first day of college. Soon, they became close friends, spending time together on casual Chipotle dates, attending each other’s sporting events and studying side by side. Their friendship soon blossomed into a deep romance.

After eight blissful years together, Matthew planned the perfect proposal while on vacation in Breckenridge, Colorado. On Christmas Eve, surrounded by snow and holiday magic, Matthew’s mother stopped the couple for a photo. At that moment, Matthew got down on one knee as Celeste’s family watched on FaceTime as she said “yes.”

Celeste and Matthew exchanged vows on March 30, 2024, at Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa. Before the ceremony, the couple shared a private first look filled with emotion. Their al fresco ceremony featured a soft palette of English pastels, complemented by the Texas Hill Country’s flora and fauna, creating a romantic setting for their “I do’s.”

An elegant garden-inspired reception followed the couple’s vows in the venue’s ballroom. After dinner and heartfelt toasts, guests were invited to a “photo booth” outside the ballroom. As they entered a seemingly ordinary photo booth, guests were met with an unexpected surprise—a hidden 1920s-themed speakeasy. The space oozed sophistication, bathed in rich red hues and intimate lighting. With a bar, signature cocktails, a dance floor, and plush lounge seating, the secret reveal had guests on their feet, dancing and celebrating the newlyweds in true style.
