About Ashley

Hi there! I’m Ashley Bechtholdt, owner, planner and coordinator here at Hold Fast weddings. I am an avid sports and pizza enthusiast, (which really comes in handy when you need late night bites on your big day). I am also a Jesus-loving, Colorado native and I cannot wait to help you create the perfect wedding from the beautiful Rocky Mountains to the Mile-High city and everything in between. My love of travel allows me to bring a diverse perspective into any couple’s dream wedding. After graduating from college, I spent a year abroad, then returned home to pursue my passion of event planning. I helped plan charitable events for large organizations and began learning the inner-workings of catering and floral. This experience combined with planning my own wedding fueled my passion to help make every couple’s big day one to remember for a lifetime! With the support of my family, husband and friends I have been able to build my wedding planning business and pursue my dream. Planning, organizing and spreadsheets are some of my top strengths that will help accomplish a joy-filled day for all. Working with me you will find that I do all things with my calm personality and sarcastic sense of humor. I look forward to working with you to make your engagement season fun and easy in anticipation of a gorgeous wedding day!

More than just what I do…but who I am

As a Christian wedding planner, my purpose is bigger than just getting you down that aisle. I believe that marriage is a sacred covenant between God, you and your spouse. It is such a beautiful picture of God’s love for us! My heart is invested on a deeper level as I’m helping you plan not only your wedding, but your marriage as well. My heart behind this company is to provide Christ-centered services in all I do. May all of my couples that I help say “I do” know that I am devoted to making their wedding day the first day of a lifelong journey together in the most beautiful way!

“A cord of three strands is not easily broken”

-Ecclesiastes 4:12

What’s in the name?

“Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” -Genesis 2:24 (ESV)

The term hold fast means to “be diligent” and to “take a firm grasp of”. A beautiful picture of how we are to love our Lord and how to take your new spouse and hold fast to them through all life throws at you.

Where falling in love with wedding planning took flight!
