Hi there! Welcome to the Luke & Ashley blog, a journal about our lives, our beautiful couples, and their stories we get to tell. Stay a while and do say hello if you please!
I absolutely adore these two! Â Not only are they the most stylish couple ever… But they are so down to earth and fun.
I always tell Luke that when I am around Jon & Kristine I feel so much cooler!  🙂
You might remember this epic couple from their engagement session.
It might have included a tap house and harley….
After their engagement session I knew these two wouldn’t disappoint when it came to their wedding day.
Meeting with Kristine she told me all about their venue, their favorite locations to shoot at, all the vintage details, and of course her dress! Â We were all so excited.
And then Hurricane Joaquin came into play. Â We were uncertain if we were going to be hit. Â What we were certain of is that the wind, rain, and possible flooding would not be ideal for their outdoor wedding.
Thursday I received a call from Kristine. Â 2 days before their wedding they were moving venues. Â A lot of friends and family were coming from out of town so they had to call EVERYONE to let them know the new place. Â Not only that but all the planning and preparing had to be altered to fit with this new space.
I wasn’t sure how Kristine would be on the day of. Â I mean a bride having to re-plan her wedding in 2 days??? Â That is insane!
However, when I walked into the room this girl was not only the most GORGEOUS bride I have ever seen…. she was absolutely giddy with excitement!!! Â And at that moment I just loved her more! Â Her attitude and love for life is so contagious.
Kristine honored her mom by wearing her wedding gown. Â The before and after on this gown is incredible! Â She had it altered to fit her style and used the lace from her mothers hat as the straps. Â She was absolutely stunning and everyone in the room knew that she was born to wear that dress!
I just cannot say enough how much I adore these two! Â They are adventurous, so in love, and are one day going to have GORGEOUS kids! Â Can we all agree on that one??
Thank-You Jon & Kristine for having us along on the beginning chapter of this adventure together! Â You guys are one amazing couple and we cannot wait to see all that you accomplish together as a team!

Seriously wonderful shots. I will carry on the Dodge name…unless someone decides to change mine someday… *sigh*
I am just so proud of these two, they handled the last minute changes due to Joaquin in stride. Nothing could stop these two from coming together in marriage and sharing their wonderful day with family and friends. I am so proud to be their mother and mother in law! Beautiful pictures!
These pictures are stunning and I wish you every happiness. I know your mom was with you and smiling down. Congrats!
Beautiful couple, beautiful photos!

Most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen! Amazing pictures! You can see the love these two have
I definitely agree Kate! These two were perfect!!!
These are absolutely stunning!
All very beautifully captured!!!!! Congrats!!!!!
I couldn’t agree with your words more… Kristine was radiant, as per usual, the day of her wedding. Giddy with excitement… And her infectious laughter filled the room throughout the day. Any other bride would be having a nervous breakdown… She glowed instead and radiated outward. I’m so happy for the two love birds.
Just beautiful!
