Every love story has a beginning, and ours started in the most unlikely place to meet your soul mate, Concord Hospital. Little did we know that simply passing each other in the bustling hallways and packed elevators would change our lives forever.

Ashley, doing the job she loves, helping people as a deeply compassionate phlebotomist. Nick, starting a new chapter in his life after leaving the Air Force was a new employee of the hospital's Environmental Services department.

It started simply enough as stealing glances at each other, sharing those elevator rides together, and having peaceful conversations with one another during our busy shifts. Fate had a funny way of bringing us together.

The first date was at Everett Arena, to watch the roller derby. Full of butterflies in anticipation and excitement, it was there we discovered how effortlessly we connected and our nervousness subsided. This ordinary date soon turned into a deep bond that neither could have anticipated.

We found joy in the little things: We loved walking in the woods; laughing together; ice cream dates; camping trips; concerts; lake days; fairs; mud bogs; snow shoeing; and taking many silly pictures to capture our adventures. Supporting each others challenges and celebrations, big and small, our love grows stronger and we know we have found something truly special.

And now, here we are, surrounded by our family and closest friends, excited to embark on the next chapter of our journey together. We are incredibly grateful for the love and support for the beautiful life we are building together.

Thank you for being a part of our story. We are so happy that each one of you can be here to celebrate with us on our special day. We are excited to see what the future holds for us!

Love, Ashley & Nick
