On a beautiful August day, Joel and Ashley’s paths crossed at a family cookout hosted by Joel’s sister, Stephanie, and brother-in-law, Michael. From that moment, a spark ignited between them, leading to the start of their beautiful relationship. Almost a year later, in a heartfelt proposal at Ashley’s home among family and friends, Joel asked Ashley and her children Darian and Amayah to join him on life’s journey. With joy in her heart, Ashley embraced this invitation with open arms. And so, the real adventures of Ashley and Joel began, as they eagerly look forward to their wedding day and all the love and laughter that awaits them! We will celebrate our joining together with family and close friends by invitation only in February 2025.
