Matt and Tash first met in September 2019 while working at Country Hills Golf Club. Though they had both started a few years earlier, Matt in Grounds and Tash in Food & Beverage, their paths didn’t truly cross until Matt moved into an Administrative role with the Grounds department and Tash transitioned into the Clubhouse office.

During that first off-season, they quickly became friends. One of the standout memories from that time was when Tash managed to convince Matt to dress up as Santa for an afternoon, listening to the youngest members of the club share their Christmas wishes.

When the pandemic hit, life pulled them in different directions and they lost touch. But in February 2021, Matt reached out after some encouragement from his sister, and Tash answered. Two weeks later they hung out for the first time in over a year and instantly became inseparable.

They officially began dating on April 19, 2021, and less than a year later they were living together.

A few years after that, following brunch on their four-year anniversary, Matt proposed at Bowness Park!
