We are so excited to celebrate with you!

Jonathan here! This is possibly my favorite story to tell! One night I was at a concert at Banita Creek Hall when I happened to look down and see this beautiful girl that I had never seen in there. Immediately, I knew that I had to go up to her and ask her to come to the VIP section. She was quick to say "no, I have a large party with me" and boy was I let down! Fast forward a couple weeks, I was enjoying some more live music at Banita and to my surprise a girl came up to me and asked "Do you remember me?" to which I quickly replied "no". I knew exactly who she was because how can you forget someone like that. Ashley being herself was very hungry and asked where the closest Whataburger was and I knew that was my one chance to grab her phone, slip my number into it and see what magic I could work. I continued to see her come to concerts and always took every opportunity I had to dance with her until I finally got her to agree to go on a date. Ever since that first date, I knew she was extremely special. There was no way I was not going to make her my wife!

Before meeting Jonathan, I wasn’t really interested in anything or anyone. Leave it to Jonathan to interfere with my messy life, he let himself in and swooped me up. He really wouldn’t stop bugging me, in the nicest way possible of course. This guy was so persistent and has never stopped pursuing me. After many times of me telling him no and turning him down, I finally said yes to a date. That brings us to the best first date ever. We went to dinner and got a few drinks. Our date consisted of great food, nonstop laughing and genuinely getting to know one another. Everything was just so easy and flowed so well. A typical first date, but this one was set far apart from the rest. I still tell him to this day how it was the best experience I’d ever had on a first date. That’s how it should be..
