Kally Lyons Marries Matt Safko

LyonsWeddingKally Lyons, a 2010 graduate of Scarsdale High School, married Matt Safko on June 19, 2025, in New York City.

The couple met at an engagement party in 2021 for one of Kally’s friends from Scarsdale (Rachel Fix ‘10) and one of Matt’s friends from the University of Maryland. A particularly insistent guest was convinced that Kally and Matt would make a great match. After some playful pressure, Matt asked for Kally’s number, and the rest is history.


Kally and Matt bonded over their shared love of family, both of their mothers are one of nine siblings, and their instant connection with Matt’s beloved cockapoo, Chase. Before long, the three were inseparable, and it felt only natural to make their family official by tying the knot.

Kally is the daughter of Kevin and Anne Ughetta Lyons of Scarsdale. Matt is the son of Ron Safko and Rita Duffell of New York City.

The couple exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at Palma Restaurant in the West Village on June 19th and celebrated their marriage with a larger gathering of family and friends at the Altman Building on Saturday night.

Matt graduated from Xavier High School in 2009 and the University of Maryland in 2013. He is currently a Senior Director at TransPerfect. Kally graduated from Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in 2014 and works in Marketing at GumGum.

The couple resides in Peter Cooper Village with their dog, Chase.
