Kaitlyn and Michael met while playing shuffleboard late one summer night at Sam’s Bar & Grill in Port Chester. They would soonreconnect by way of a mutual friend on Instagram, and ended up watching the Fourth of July fireworks together from a boat. Sparks flew both in the sky and between them.
Six years later, Michael proposed at Whiteface Mountain in Lake Placid when the couple were skiing.
The wedding happened during an unexpected Nor’easter on Nantucket. It was raining sideways from Thursday night into early Sunday morning. As a result, the tent that the mother of the bride had worked so hard to design was never put up. The couple had to pivot and turn an outdoor wedding into an indoor one; but thankfully, they were able to celebrate with all their friends and family.
Rev. Jodi Fondell officiated at the ceremony at the First Congregational Church in Nantucket, and a reception followed at the Westmoor Club.
The bride, daughter of Peter and Wendy Hubbell of Greenwich, graduated from Kent School. Kaitlyn works for Xcel Brands in New York.
The groom, son of Thomas and Megan Byrne of Old Greenwich, graduated from Greenwich High School. Michael works remotely for Bradford Aquatic Group.
The newlyweds honeymooned in Zermatt, Switzerland. They live in Stamford
