Our Wedding

Hello, lovely guests! I'm Lydia, a sophisticated, driven, assertive woman who fell head over heels in love with the easy-going, adventurous, and optimistic Ashton. Our paths crossed on September 27, 2023, at the anniversary celebration of our mutual friends in Decatur, AL. This friend had been trying to set us up for a while, and when we finally met, I was feeling awkward, but Ashton thought I was even better than he had heard. One of our first dates always sticks out in my mind. Ashton took me to see Christmas lights, and as we held hands for the first time, I knew he was someone special. We love exploring new restaurants and beautiful places, but we also cherish quiet moments together, just enjoying each other's company. Ashton proposed on July 4th under a sky ablaze with fireworks at Thunderbird Lake; a beautiful setting for a beautiful moment. Our dreams for the future are simple yet profound - seizing every moment, growing old in love, and above all, living our lives together for the kingdom of God. To all our beloved guests, we want to express our deepest gratitude for being a part of our love story. Please join us in celebrating this beautiful journey as we say "I do" and embark on a new chapter filled with love, laughter, and endless possibilities. Thank you for your love and support as we begin this next chapter together. With love and anticipation,Lydia &amp; Ashton
