In other frames, the lovebirds are seen holding hands outdoors as the sun sets behind them, before they turned up the heat and shared a steamy kiss at an indoor venue.

Later in the night, Ashley shared a touching moment with her beloved father as they danced in front of family and friends. 

The couple captioned the images: ‘Mr & Mrs O’Dwyer. 15 March 2025’. 

In the comments section, Ashley explained her short engagement and why every moment with her father was precious because of his declining health. 

‘… We needed to plan the wedding before the engagement so he could be there and walk me down the aisle,’ she told her followers. 

Ashley opened up about her father’s health in a heartbreaking post in 2023. 

‘It hit me pretty hard finding out my dad had Alzheimer’s, but over these past few months it’s hard to hide it or pretend it doesn’t affect myself or the family as it is getting worse,’ she wrote at the time.

‘I wish I could say it’s going to get better, but sadly it’s the opposite,’ she continued, before adding, ‘a massive shout out’ to her mother Steph who has been a pillar of strength through it all.
