Meet Ashley
Ashley Lewkowicz is the Owner and Executive Planner of Signature Weddings. When you partner with Signature Weddings to bring your wedding to life, Ashley becomes an intimate part of the process. She makes a point of getting to know you personally so every detail is executed with your unique personalities in mind. As Ashley works to get to know you, we thought we’d give you a head start at getting to know her.
Born and raised in Canmore, Alberta, Ashley adores the intoxicating energy of Canada’s most breathtaking destinations. She is passionate about deep, meaningful relationships with her loved ones. Ashley is fiercely loyal, regarding her friends as family and valuing her family above all else. She grew up exploring the Rockies with friends, dancing competitively, and living out the free-range childhood that small-town kids are fortunate enough to enjoy.
When she’s not collaborating with couples on their dream weddings, you can find her doing barre or yoga, skiing, trying out new recipes, hanging out with her dogs, playing board games with friends, or researching her next travel destination. Ashley’s favourite movie is The Wedding Planner (obviously).
Ashley loves to laugh, while she’s always put together she’s hilariously goofy behind the scenes. Known for her hyper-organization and love of deep-cleaning, she couldn’t have picked a better career path. She’s got a keen eye for detail and diligently follows emerging trends in wedding design, decor, and functionality to ensure her weddings are both trendy and timeless.
Since before she can remember, Ashley wanted to be a Wedding Planner when she “grew up.” She began taking steps towards this dream at Canmore Collegiate High School when students were given the opportunity to seek out work placements in the community. She worked under a local planner and began learning everything about the industry at the young age of 16. Now, Ashley is that grown-up she aspired to become. She loves her work tremendously and struggles to pinpoint her favourite thing about what she does because, from start to finish, she loves it all.
With that, we are pleased to introduce Signature Weddings by Ashley.
