In the summer of 2016 Ashley got a random friend request on Facebook from John. She didn't know who he was but she thought he was cute so she accepted the request. For the next year they talked back and fourth and made plans to meet up but never did. Looking back it was probably because they both were just not ready. Anyways, July 4th, 2017 they FINALLY went on their first date. Ashley drove to his house and he drove them both downtown to watch the fireworks by the river(That is also where they had their first kiss). They had a magical night and from then on Ashley knew she wanted him to be apart of her life. They talked and got to know each other for about 3 weeks and July 23rd John finally made it official. Since that day we haven’t hardly spent a day apart. We moved in together around Christmas 2017 and he popped the question on our 1 year anniversary July 23rd,2018. He made me put on a blindfold and he drove me out to Kingsley Plantation where he helped me out of the car and walked me out to the spot. He asked me to take the blindfold off and when i did he was on one knee crying asking me to marry him! We’re thrilled to become husband and wife and bring all of our family and friends together and celebrate.
