We're Getting Married!

We met through Mike's cousin, Julianne, who Alison ironically went to high school at North Royalton with. Julianne texted Alison one day in college about how her cousin, Michael, went to one of Alison's YSU basketball games and he wanted her phone number. After 8 long months of Alison playing hard to get and Mikey being a persistent man, Alison finally caved in and gave him the time of day... & the rest is history! :) We officially started dating on November 11th, 2016.

We had our first date at the Chophouse (located right next door to The Grand Resort). On October 14th 2022, Mikey wanted to make our engagement special by taking me back to where it all started. He took me for a weekend stay at the Avalon. We got massages, planned on golfing and having a nice dinner at the Chophouse. While walking over for dinner, he took me out on the golf course and then got down on one knee. I heard a bunch of cheering going on near the Chophouse. He coordinated our whole families to be there, including my brother who flew in from California. It was a day I will never, ever forget, filled with so much love! The Avalon is very special to us as not only did we have our first date and engagement here, but soon we will have our wedding day as well! We are so excited to celebrate with you all!
