We're Getting Married!

Ashley and Elijah met in the summer of 2014 during the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) at the University at Buffalo, just before starting their freshman year. From the very beginning, there was a strong connection that quickly grew into a meaningful friendship and, over time, a deep and enduring love. They officially began dating on Ashley’s birthday, December 29th, and years later, Elijah proposed during his birthday weekend—turning a season of celebration into a beautiful new beginning. Together, Ashley and Elijah earned both their bachelor’s and master’s degrees, supporting each other every step of the way. They’ve also ventured into real estate investment, building a strong foundation for their future as true partners in life. Now, after nearly a decade of shared growth, laughter, and love, they are thrilled to start the next chapter of their journey. Ashley and Elijah look forward to becoming husband and wife in front of God and surrounded by the love and support of their family and friends. #LeslieLove&Legacy
