On May 3, 2019, Ashley visited Greenville, NC for graduation weekend. She ended up at a post-graduation party at a friend of a friends house. This friend ended up being Kyle's sister, Sam.

After a brief introduction of Sam's family, several rounds of flip cup, a gold Four Loko, and a trip to Stilllife, the group parted ways.

Fast forward to March 19th, 2020. Ashley sits at home in Charlotte, getting used to her new work from home orders. To pass the time, a John Mulaney special plays in the background (for the 45th time). Shortly after posting a picture of the special on her Instagram story, Kyle sparked up a conversation.

"I've seen some bad quarantine's, but this is by far the worst".

The rest is history.

Over the course of the next 3.5 years, we went from long distance to moving in to an apartment together in Charlotte. We've gone through job changes, loss of friends and family, and gained some as well.

We're so incredibly excited to begin the next chapter of our lives together!
