Our Story

Our paths first crossed in an unlikely place—sharing the same duplex in Chardon, with Dan on the first floor and Ali just above. Despite living mere walls apart, we didn't formally meet until a chilly November evening on the porch. Dan, enjoying the start of his vacation, and Ali, returning from errands, struck up a conversation over a shared beer. What started as casual chat soon grew into a lasting friendship, built on laughter, adventures, and unwavering support through life’s twists. As time passed, our connection grew into a love that surpassed friendship, making us not only partners but each other's best friend. We're grateful for the journey that started with a simple conversation on a porch leading us to where we are today.

Winery Recommendations

The Wedding Website of Ali Orlando and Dan Hough
Explore the rich flavors of wineries in the area, ideal for ceremony celebrations. Our recommended wineries provide the perfect ambiance for continuing the celebration with an evening dinner. Fun Fact: The glaciers that moved through the Grand River Valley deposited a rich and complex soil that imparts mineral and earthy characteristics to the wines of the region. Lake Erie, also a remnant of the glacier, moderates the local climate, apparent by cooling the evenings after a warm summer day and warming our winters which protect the vines from extreme cold. The Grand River Valley has all the ingredients for growing quality vinifera grapes and producing exceptional wines.
