The engagement of Mari Valonis (Dickson City, PA) and Jonny Haines (Sackets Harbor, N.Y.) residents of Cazenovia was announced on Aug. 11, 2022, during a trip to Cape May, N.J. with the Valonis family. Jonny asked for Mari’s hand in marriage while looking for sea glass at Sunset Beach and Mari accepted.

Their wedding is slated for early autumn 2023, the official date and location of the event is yet to be affirmed, but they plan to hold the ceremony in Cazenovia. Anyone wanting to wish congratulations to the couple may email them at finalring10@ gmail.com or just say hello when you see them around town. They’re looking forward to continuing to call Caz their home as they move forward with their lives together – the town where they first met and have made many friends and many memories as well
