Our love story began when I was in graduate school at Western Illinois in Macomb, Illinois. Ben and I were set up on a date by a mutual friend, Nick Knowles. We found so many things in common: student athletics, work ethic, and GOLF! We began spending more and more time together.

By the time I finished graduate school, Ben and I were in love. We moved to Chicago and focused on building our careers. While away on a trip to Florida, Ben proposed to me in December, 2024.

We decided to make Chicago our home and purchased our first house in Antioch, Illinois in May.

Feeling so grateful for our family and friends, we can't wait to celebrate and share our wedding day with you!

~~ Ashley and Ben
