After attending the same high school together for 2.5 years, Ashley and Marc met on New Years Eve in 2006. Despite being surrounded by friends, they spent the entire night talking, as if the only two in the room. Just 16 and 17, they knew there was something special about their relationship. Growing up together has taken the two through many life events including prom, 5 years of college, 5 Manhattan apartments, and many job changes (... well Marc's job changes). Side by side through challenges, they knew there was nothing they couldn't do if they were in it together. In May, while having drinks at La Ronde Beach Club before dinner (their favorite place to watch the sunset), Marc surprised Ashley by proposing on an empty beach. 12 New Years later, they are finally ready to tie the knot. They're so excited to start the next phase of their lives together and can't wait to celebrate with you in August!
