Andrew and Elana met during the last week of their first semester at Miami University, when a mutual friend asked Elana if she wanted to join a study group for their chemistry final. When Elana got to the study room (20 minutes late, as always), the only people there were Andrew and their friend - as you can probably guess (and as they would learn later), yes, this was intentional. At the end of that night, Andrew and Elana exchanged phone numbers to set up another study date. They hung out a few more times before the semester ended, texted during their 6-week winter break, and then made things official the first day back on campus (January 29, 2018). They got engaged almost exactly 6 years later on January 20, 2024, at Gervasi Vineyard in Canton, OH (one of Elana's favorite places). They are so excited to start this next chapter of their lives and are looking forward to celebrating with all of you in May!
