Our Wedding

Our story began when we both took a chance with online dating, and we turned out to being the lucky ones. It was almost like fate when we ended up on each other’s screens, being in two different states, and both of us knowing this was the best decision we’ve ever made. After two years of traveling back and forth and always making time for each other, our long distance came to an end when we started building our life together in Tulsa. Then it took a few months after that to decide we wanted this to be forever. It was a Friday night in December when we went out on a normal date night, with dinner and seeing Christmas lights. Little did I know Ashton had a ring in his pocket the whole time. Until we came home and he pulled me into our kitchen and started dancing to “Starting Over” by Chris Stapleton, and I spun around to see Ashton on one knee with the ring of my dreams. With having great memories with trips to the lake, baseball games, spending time with each other’s friends and families, and holidays, we can’t wait to start creating memories with our own family… And it all begins on October 25, 2025 with our favorite people.
