Both native to Santee, CA it was only a matter of time before destiny intertwined their lives. Although having both attended elementary school at Carlton Oaks, and Ashley growing up next door to a close friend of Robert's, Robert and Ashley had not met until adulthood. Meeting at a party through a mutual friend they have spent the last 4 years forging the unbreakable bond that they now share.

In the days and weeks after they met, they sent countless text messages to one and other, sharing favorite songs and getting to know each other better until they were able to be together in person again. Whenever possible, they would spend their evenings together after work enjoying each other's company along with their favorite wines and craft beers while playing board games or watching movies.

Robert met Ashley's daughter, Haven after her 6th birthday party and quickly grew to love her sweet smile and quirky personality. Spending time pushing her on the swings, swimming, watching movies and eating ice cream, he now considers her his own as they too have built an amazing relationship.

Ashley, a graduate of San Diego State University is now working as a Personnel Technician for Santee School District and Robert, a United States Air Force Veteran is now working as a Project Manager for Kleinsmith Stair and Trim. They both enjoy hiking, camping, and spending the winters in the desert on their quads and dirt bikes.

Robert proposed to Ashley on a weekend getaway while camping at Two Harbors on Catalina Island. After spending the day snorkeling and taking in amazing sights, the two were hiking into town for dinner when he popped the question at a view point he had spotted on a previous hike that same trip.

We look forward to spending the day with you as we commemorate their relationship and pour out our blessings on their future life together as one.
