We first met as teenagers in the Medina County Junior Leaders 4-H Club. After being 4-H camp counselors together at Kelleys Island, scooping milkshake base at the Medina County Fair, and being in the county's 4-H Fashion and Nutrition Board -- Patrick followed his wise brother's advice and joined "for the women" -- we started dating.

Over years of long distance dating including plenty of time spent in Medina County, Akron, Bowling Green, and Athens, we have both finally landed in the same place in Cincinnati, Ohio. Cecilia's constant compassion, ambition, patience, and sense of adventure have been a constant light in Patrick's life, while Patrick's incredible good looks and immense physical strength have always impressed his bride-to-be (can you tell who is writing this story?).

All jokes aside, these past six years together have been the best years of our lives, and we cannot wait to celebrate them as we look forward to spending the rest of our lives together. Thank you to all of our friends and family who are joining us on February 1. Your constant love and support means the world to us, and we cannot wait to celebrate together.

Love,

Patrick and Cecilia Caniglia
