On April 3rd, 2021, after a decade long courtship, Kyle Gaines Harris & Kara Lynne Goldberg will be joined together as husband & wife.
Planning a wedding amidst a global pandemic is not for the faint of heart, but sometimes love just can't wait. The couple is opening up the ceremony & reception for friends and family to join, whether in person, or via livestream video technology.
On the evening of April 17th, 2011, Kara & Kyle were grabbing a drink, respectively, at O'Maddy's Bar & Grille in Gulfport, Florida.
Glances were exchanged from across the bar, which led to introductions. It turned out that the pair had worked together - years before - at a restaurant where Kyle was a server, and Kara was a hostess.
In the interim, Kyle had begun his journey as a father to Gavin Gaines, and Kara had earned her baccalaureate degree at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida.
The pair soon learned that they both had recently chosen Gulfport as their new home town, and even lived a stone's throw away from one another.
A decade has since passed, and the full history of their love is filled with peaks and valleys, as any good love story should be. The couple, along with Kyle's son, Gavin, and Kara's grey cat named Frank, now live together in a home on the edge of Gulfport.
In the event of rain on Saturday, April 3rd, we will carry on with the ceremony as planned, and will reserve the rain check date of *Sunday, April 4th* for a slightly toned down outdoor reception.
*Please note, that Sunday the 4th is Easter and the final night of Passover.*
