Back in April 2015, Ashley was out at a bar in Chicago, Lion Head Pub, with her friends. Later in the night, she broke off by herself and went over to the bar to grab a drink. Shane, who was out at the same bar with his friends, spotted Ashley and decided to go over and say hello. Shane introduced himself and offered to buy Ashley a drink. They ended up talking and hanging out all night. Ashley gave Shane her number and he asked her on a date the following weekend. The rest is history. Ashley and Shane got engaged on May 24, 2019 in downtown Chicago, on the Swissotel rooftop, overlooking the city. It was a complete surprise to Ashley, as she thought she was just meeting her parents for a drink that night. Little did she know what was in store. Shane surprised her a 2nd time with an engagement party, including close family and friends, that same night. They have been looking forward to their wedding ever since. After postponing twice due to COVID, they are ready to have the time of their lives with family and friends out on the dance floor!
