Ashtyn and John first met in the summer of 2021 through mutual friends, where John immediately made an impression - mostly by unapologetically hogging the spike ball game. What began as a lighthearted friendship quickly deepened over a year filled with river adventures, spontaneous ice cream runs, and countless conversations where John patiently listened to Ashtyn share her thoughts, dreams, and stories. Somewhere in all those shared memories, Ashtyn began to notice the things that set John apart - his thoughtfulness, his sense of adventure, and the way he showed up for people without needing to be asked. And while she may have made him work a little to win her over, John never wavered, showing her every step of the way that she was worth the wait. Fast forward to September 2022 when they finally started dating. From that point everything fell into place and the rest was history. Now they are getting married and couldn't be more excited for what comes next.
