Our story started at a Friday night football game on September 21st, 2012. As freshmen in high school, we were just two kids who still had to ask our parents to drive us to "date nights" at the movie theater. Three homecomings and two proms later, we were graduating together. Scott accepted a scholarship to play a lot of football at Ashland University, while Madison set off to Columbus to cheer on a lot of football at Ohio State University. After four years, and countless trips up and down I-71, virtual graduation day arrived, and we were back together in Ashland. Two years of "who knows what happened because it was COVID" flew by, and suddenly, Scott had earned his master's degree and Madison was accepted into medical school. Our first apartment in Dayton, OH was the first place that was ours, together. Our story took a big turn when Scott proposed at Mohican State Park on July 1st, 2023, and to make wedding planning even more eventful, we bought our first house on March 11th, 2024. The past 12 years together have been full of happiness, growth, and love — but we couldn't have done it alone. We are so blessed to be surrounded by family and friends who have not only loved us individually, but as a couple.
