Our Wedding

December 2020: In the darkest days of the pandemic, we swiped right and found each other on a dating app. Turns out, we were both equally infatuated AND equally obsessed with travel and not being stuck indoors. So, while everyone else was binging Netflix, we were out there, conquering every hiking trail in Canada. Our love truly blossomed among the trees!

November 2021: We went to Banff, and amidst all that stunning scenery, Ash finally blurted out I love you!E said it back and our love continued to grow to new peaks!

April 2022: Things got serious when we moved in together, bringing our sweet Brandi girl into the mix. Also, Ash started a new job, probably to help fund all our future adventures.

May 2023: We finally broke free of Canadian borders and took our first international trip to Hawaii! This trip clearly unlocked the bug, because we then proceeded to go on a casual 13 trips that year. Our bank account cried, but our souls celebrated!

December 2023: We celebrated our first Christmas on the island. Pretty sure Santa needed a passport to find us that year.

July 2024: Ethan, clearly inspired by our globetrotting, decided to quit his job and dive headfirst into a career in sales. The German say Das Auto, but Ash say Das my (almost) Husband

February 2025: On a cruise in Aruba, Ethan decided it was finally time to put a ring on it. We're pretty sure it was the Caribbean air, not the bottomless amaretto sours, that sealed the deal.

June 2026: We'll officially tie the knot! Get ready for the party, because if our dating life is any indication, it's going to be an adventure.

Our Story

Photos

Wave isn't just one of Ashley's oldest friends; she's practically a professional Ashley-wrangler. These two met way back in Grade 6 in Newmarket, probably over a shared love for EQAO or something equally profound. Since then, they've not only remained best friends but have also managed to work at a few jobs together, including their current gig. Clearly, they just can't quit each other!

Ashley and Christin's friendship began in the trenches of a hair studio in Alliston. Ash was moments away from throwing in the towel, but then Christin, practically a stranger at the time, swooped in and talked her out of it. Was it a profound act of friendship? Or did Christin just desperately want to leave on time for a long weekend and needed Ash to stay? The world may never know, but either way, it sparked a beautiful, unbreakable bond. Their friendship was truly cemented when Ashley had the honour of being Christin's Maid of Honour when she married Brandon.

Syd Fisher wasted no time cementing her place in Ashley's inner circle. Seriously, it's like they skipped the whole "getting to know you" phase and went straight to "basically sisters." From endless hikes and yoga sessions to conquering restaurants, pulling cards, leading cleansing breaths, and enjoying countless morning coffees or beach walks, it's hard to remember a time before Syd Fish was a core part of Ashley's life. She's the kind of friend who just gets you, instantly.

Sydney Ing isn't just a friend; she's Ashley's best friend of 27 years! That's practically a lifetime of shared secrets, inside jokes, and questionable fashion choices (we're looking at you, tie dye and sweat pants). These two have truly been through it all: from navigating the horrors of school to surviving living together, celebrating engagements, and now, planning weddings! Syd and her fiancé Jean have always been Ashley's go-to crew for those essential coffee walks and late-night chats that keep everyone sane. She's seen it all, knows it all, and probably has equally as many embarrassing stories as Ashley's mother.
