We both attended Ross Schools growing up, running in familiar circles but never truly crossed paths until we were out of college and starting our lives. When we least expected it, the absolute best thing happened. My mom (Ashley speaking here), was retiring so of course we had to throw her a big party to celebrate. To make it even more special, we decided to hire a local artist for live music. I posted on Facebook to get recommendations when Justin was tagged multiple times. He ended up agreeing to play while dropping subtle flirty hints towards me. He asked me what my favorite songs were so he could play them during the party. Fast forward to the night of the party, my entire family on both sides were present, moms work friends & lifelong friends, my friends & more! Half way through the night, Justin stops playing and announces on the mic “so how many of Ashley’s favorite songs do I need to play for her to go on a date with me?” The rest is history! We sat on my parents driveway that night until 2AM talking about anything and everything including details for where our first date would be ❤️
