Michael and Ashley met in April of 2017 in the bulk aisle of Ozark Natural Foods. Ashley was in town visiting from New York and started telling people she was going to date that guy when she moved home. Soon, everyone knew about the handsome and charming co-op boy, just as the people at the co-op knew about that tall blonde girl. Many unnecessary trips to the store + one undelivered phone number scribbled on a piece of paper later, their relationship began. After spending the last few years in NYC, they're thrilled to begin their next adventure in Arkansas as Mr. and Mrs. Thorup.
