It all started back in 2017, thanks to a group of mutual friends who had a feeling we might just be perfect for each other. They planned a casual get-together for us to meet—but it almost didn’t happen! Juan nearly skipped it to see the new Spider-Man movie (priorities!). Thankfully, he showed up—and by the end of the night, Ashley asked for his Snapchat. The rest, as they say, is history.

Shortly after we met, Ashley adopted Sophie, a sweet pup who was not the biggest fan of guys. But when we moved in together in 2022, something changed—Juan and Sophie became inseparable. Their favorite activities? Napping on the couch and long walks around the neighborhood.

Over the past eight years, we've shared so many milestones: falling in love, navigating long distance, moving in together, getting engaged, and most recently—welcoming Oliver, a rescue cat, into our lives (much to Sophie's dismay).

We can’t wait to begin this beautiful new chapter together and are so grateful to have you by our side. Your presence means more to us than words can express, and sharing our love story with those we hold dearest makes this moment even more magical. We’re so excited to celebrate the start of forever with you.
