Maddie and Bethany met in college during Bethany's sophomore year. They became fast friends and lived together Bethany's senior year. After college, Maddie moved to Olean and took a job working for the same hospital as Bethany. She now lives in Allegany with her husband and baby boy!

Abi and Bethany met on move in day of college! Abi was in 303, and Bethany was in 307. They became friends instantly and were proud members of "The Blondies". They went on countless crazy adventures together in college, from camping, to wine tours, to random drives around the lake.  Bethany loved cheering on Abi at her LAX games. The adventures have continued well past college.

Sophia and Bethany met in college. They were on the same cross country team all four years, but they did not start to get close until sophomore year. They roomed together junior and senior year. A few years after college, Sophia moved to Olean and lived with Bethany again! They continue to hang out weekly, going to dance classes, taking walks, or getting their margarita fixes.

Bret is Bethany's "cousin"! Her mom, Aunt Nettie, went to college with both of Bethany's parents. They have known each other since birth and have been on many wonderful adventures together. They love catching up and filling each other in on what has been happening in their lives.

Although he could not be here in person to celebrate, Colton and Bethany wanted Bethany's older brother, Nicolas, to be a part of their day. He was Bethany's role model and protector growing up. He and Colton would have gotten along very well, it is only fitting that he is a groomsman.

Wedding Party

Travel

Some of our favorite restaurants in town are The Beef and Barrel, Hometown Bar and Grill, the Eatery, and Napoli's. We love to get breakfast at Green Acres and the Kopper Keg and coffee at The Coffee Shop in Franklinville and the Perfect Blend. There are so many great ice cream spots, including Klice's Kones, the Scoop, and Twist and Shake.

Places to Eat

For our Outdoorsy Guests, Allegany State Park is a great place to visit. There are countless trails to hike, two lakes to swim in, some very fun playgrounds, and a bike loop. You can even check out Thunder Rocks!

St. Bonaventure has a beautiful, paved walking trail. It goes along the river and is very peaceful. You can start it by the tennis courts off of East State Street.

The wedding ceremony will take place at the Marchiori Pavilion (number 31 on the map). The reception will take place at Doyle Conference Center (number 7 and 8 on the map). It is recommended to enter the "Main/East Entrance" at the intersection of Constitution Avenue and West State Street. You will then drive down St. Bonaventure Road and park in the large lot off to the right. It will be your second right after entering the campus. Handicap parking is located slightly further down the road. The recommend route and parking area are highlighted in purple on the map above.
