Ian grew up in Powassan, where he spent his childhood playing hockey and baseball. Some of his favorite memories are of family camping trips, which sparked his lifelong love of the outdoors.

Céline grew up in North Bay, where she played piano, rode horses, and danced ballet. Some of her favorite childhood memories were made at the camper on cherished summer weekends.

We first met in high school—Ian at St. Joseph-Scollard Hall, Céline at Algonquin—brought together by our wonderful friend, Marina Cauvier, who introduced us.

From teenagers to adults, we’ve grown side by side—learning, loving, and becoming the people we are today.

We shared double the fun that year—going to both our proms and making memories to last a lifetime.

Even miles apart during college and university, we followed our passions in education while supporting each other every step of the way.

Ian pursued his passion for the outdoors at Algonquin College in Pembroke, studying Outdoor Adventure and Business — where his love for nature truly took root.

Céline completed her studies in Speech-Language Pathology at Laurentian University in Sudbury, marking an important milestone in her professional career.

We shared five unforgettable years in Sudbury, walking life’s path side by side as Céline completed her degrees.

Meadow became a beloved new member of our family, held close from day one.

Meadow wanted a puppy sister, and soon enough, Willow joined the family wrapped in love (and a cozy blanket)!

Our canoeing adventures have taken us through calm waters and wild rapids—each trip a new chapter in our journey together.

We tackled endurance obstacle courses—jumping, sliding, and pushing through every challenge.

We’ve shared countless hiking adventures, discovering new trails and memories.

After years of school, dreaming and working toward our goal, purchasing our first house became a defining chapter in our journey together.

With Meadow and Willow by our side, we gained more than just our first house — we’ve built a loving home and laid the foundation for our future.

We look forward to celebrating our wedding day with you October 3rd 2026!
