Our Wedding

It all started back in July of 2018 when Breck "slid" into Ashleigh's DM's. The conversation went back and forth effortlessly as they quickly realized they had a mutual love for fitness. Breck then asked Ashleigh to go to a Soul Cycle class. Ashleigh showed up late and left during the cool down. It was as a hi and bye situation that left Breck feeling very confused and over it. So later that night Breck sent Ashleigh a message telling Ashleigh to let him know when she would be free to grab a drink. Ashleigh must not have known when she was going to be free next because she left him on read. (Cold world...damn dog) Months later after no communication, Ashleigh crashed a birthday party at Eleven Eleven. Little did she know, it was Breck's birthday that she was crashing. Fast forward almost a year to August 2019, the two were now best friends and one wild night at Bottled Blonde, the two were caught kissing on the dance floor! January 1, 2020 Breck finally decided to sub himself out of the game and asked Ashleigh to be his girl. Everyone knows what happened in 2020, Covid happened!Ashleigh was back home in Australia and almost wasn't going to make it back to the united states before the boarders closed .(this could have been a very different story if that happened)... Luckily, Ashleigh made it back, Just in time to quarantine with Breck where their relationship went from 0-100 (real quick). Over the years of Breck and Ashleigh's relationship they have grown deeper in love with each other, made many memories together , laughed and cried with each other and felt so grateful to have each other by their side. November 20th 2022 Breck flew to the other side of the world to Australia to get down on one knee and said...."What do you reckon MATE?" Luckily... Ashleigh said YES!! They CAN'T WAIT to spend this special day with you all in AUSTRALIA and they hope you all can make it...

IT GOES DOWN UNDA IN THE DM'S

So many fun memories and some not so great memories but always there for each other (even if it was just sitting on FaceTime for hours not saying a word ) You amaze me with your strength and how you always put others first .  The ocean might keep us apart but we are sisters for life ! 

Ashleigh Eberhardt

Saige Groves 

You are a shining light in a room , also the last one dancing and the one picking the best and definitely most expensive restaurants to go to. Thank you for welcoming me into your family and for standing with me on this special day.  

Sage Mahoney 

My hot girl walk girlie, my always down girlie literally 9 months pregnant going to every bridal store! Your heart is so beautiful Jules, literally the most caring person I know.

It’s not often you meet someone who you literally just “get “ and they “get” you! Capricorn sisters for life!  Loveeee you 

Sophia Hurst

Well this girl right here , if it wasn’t for you, this love story would have never happened haha .
New Year’s Eve night 2019, you set my alarm to go meet Breck and when the alarm went off you said “Ash don’t be stupid, go see your man” . You have always had my best interests in mind and have always had my back. Thank you for always being someone I can trust and rely on and for always helping me make the “best decisions”

Tricia Walker 

Aka 360 soles. Your shoe guys favorite shoe guy. Thank you for fully supporting my shoe passion. Late nights, elevated tables in the CHI killin the dance floor…memories for days, but it’s the little things that you did for me during some tough times that I’ll never forget. Thank you for bringing the positive energy and for always being there.

Tyrone Jordan 

Amir: aka ATLS One of the first people that I met on UofR campus. You showed me the ropes and immediately helped Redlands feel like home. Dominoes 555 orders and how not to play power hour. I mean, you even gifted me your favorite practice shorts. What a nice guy. You’ve been a big brother from day 1, one of the nicest, selfless guys you’ll ever come across. All time on the court and all time in my heart! 2x shake shake 

Amir Mazarei

It’s a midwest swang. The midwest - Socal connection laid the groundwork to our friendship. From the Redlands to Venice 422 days, you’ve always been someone that would ride for me even when it got hot out thurr. Plus, you gotta have a 6’4” white guy in the crew, right? E.I. 2x / peace / shimmy

Scott Arceri

Who would have thought that everyone mistaking Troy for me on Redlands campus back in 2007 would turn into 15+ years of friendship? People should have just asked “Where you from?” College Roommate, Cal Founders, Citrus Grove, and oh yeah “Twinz Radio”. Life of the party! A Bulldog and my brother for life!

Troy clay

Brett  is one of my oldest friends. From Biddy Basketball, HPK, Southside Strykers, to Bulls season ticket holders. It’s been 30+ years of “TT” & “CK”. Blessed to have you rockin’ with me for the big day!

Brett Stickland 

Aka Mr. Ironman aka The Mayor. We started out as coworkers in 2015 where you immediately took me under your wing. Mentorship and career guidance quickly turned into friendship and countless westside memories. From the day we met you’ve always helped me stay READYYYYYYYY for whatever obstacles come my way. 

Nick Crooks 

Aka  $MM. When we first met on UofR campus back in 2010, I was known as “Coach B”. A few years out of college we reconnected through playing bball intramurals. My boys shamgod is still nice! You immediately became a part of the crew, moved into 422, and the rest is history! Wagwan my brother! 2x / Button it up

Mitch Abramson 

Chris: aka Bogues What if I told you that horrible LA traffic and switching up to a 5:30a gym routine in 2011 would set up a reconnection of a lifetime. Timing was everything as we were both looking for a roommate on the westside of LA. 5 years as roommates and countless toe tappin’ westside nights. Although a man of few words, you’ve always been loud when rooting for me to live my BES life. SEE YA! 2x truck stick / Bernie

Chris Bogues

Dad of the year, the new dad bod, and now my future brother. Thanks for welcoming me into the family and letting me play barbies with my homie Chloe.

Nathan Reid 

The moment that we met, you welcomed me to the fam with open arms. You wear your heart on your sleeves just like your sister.  We’ve had a number of chats from the culture, shoe game, and Bron vs MJ. Looking forward to officially calling you my brother!

Q + A

FLIGHTS 

TRAVEL FROM USA- When booking flights we recommend selecting Gold Coast Airport Australia as the destination.This will be a short connecting flight once you land in either Brisbane or Sydney.

Below are a few recommendations once you arrive Down Unda: I have added more recommendations for Queensland (Brisbane and Gold Coast) as i grew up in Brisbane and we will be spending more time in Gold Coast (for the wedding ) it’s also my personal fav to visit . Just a reminder that Breck and I will be spending time in the Gold Coast starting Monday 20th and checking out Friday 24th May (We will share our itinerary as the dates get closer. Feel free to join us if you’d like) Friday the 24th we are heading to Kingscliff (20 min drive south from Gold Coast airport). This is where we will be for the wedding weekend.
