Ashley's and Ernest's love story is a tale of destiny and intertwined lives that began in the 6th grade at Havenview Middle School. Ashley was assigned to class 6-06 led by the late Ms. Cunningham, and it was in this class that Ernest would soon be transferred, forever changing the course of their lives.

Ernest often reminisces about falling in love with her at an early age, long before he truly understood the depth of his feelings. Despite Ernest's unwavering affection, Ashley and Ernest stayed in the friendzone throughout middle school and high school, their friendship deepening with each passing year.

As they transitioned to high school, fate seemed to always place them in the same classes, further solidifying their bond. Although Ashley remained hesitant to explore her own feelings for Ernest, she couldn't deny the growing attraction she felt for him. It wasn't until they both entered their sophomore year of college that Ashley finally found the courage to profess her love for Ernest, setting the stage for a new chapter in their relationship.

In October of 2015, Ashley and Ernest began rekindling and defining their love, surrendering to the undeniable connection they shared. By December of that same year, they made their relationship official, solidifying their commitment to each other. As they delved deeper into each other's backgrounds and shared childhood memories, Ashley and Ernest were amazed to discover the intricate ways their lives had been intertwined long before they even met.

They learned that their parents had known each other before they were born, they learned that they had lived just doors down from each other in the same apartment complex during their early years, and to this day their parents settled in homes within walking distance of each other after moving out of the apartment complex . It became evident to Ashley and Ernest that their union was not just a coincidence, but a result of God serendipitously planting them before each other time and time again.

Since that fateful revelation, Ashley and Ernest have stood by each other's side, cherishing the depth of their connection and embracing the love that binds them together. Now, as they prepare to embark on a new journey as husband and wife, they carry with them the knowledge that their love story is one that was written in God's will, a testament to the enduring power of destiny and love.
