Kelly Hildebrandt to Marry Kelly Hildebrandt, Thanks to Facebook

Do you, Kelly Hildebrandt, take the hand of Kelly Hildebrandt in marriage? Thanks to Facebook, that question will actually be asked.

AP reported that Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt, 20, and Kelly Carl Hildebrandt, 24, will exchange vows at the Lighthouse Point Yacht & Racquet Club in south Florida after meeting on Facebook.

Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt searched for people with the same name on Facebook one day and ended up e-mailing Kelly Carl Hildebrandt, who lived in Lubbock, Texas. They exchanged emails for the next three months, and then began speaking on the phone for hours at a time, and when he visited her in Florida, he “fell head over heels,” he told AP. The couple will live in south Florida.

“I totally think that it’s all God’s timing,” Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt told AP. “He planned it out just perfect.”

To avoid further confusion, she added, “No, we’re definitely not going to name our kids Kelly.”
