How did you two meet?
Molly: "We met at a choir party at church when we were in middle school. He had just moved to Montgomery, and a mutual friend invited him to church. We became friends, and we would hang out in groups-- we would go out to eat, go to the movies and grab coffee. We didn't start dating until a year or two after we first met. We were friends first."
How did Jimmy propose?
Molly: "We had plans to go to Birmingham for a concert on my very last day of pharmacy school. We had this trip planned for a while, so I didn't know anything was going on; I was just excited to be done with school! We were going to Oven Bird before the concert, a restaurant we had been to several times because we had friends who worked there. We pulled into the parking lot, and there were plenty of spaces to park, but he was just driving around. I said, 'Aren't you going to park?' And he said, 'I don't think this is the right entrance.' Apparently, he had a beautiful flower display set up at a different entrance, but of course I had no idea. I was getting frustrated and said, 'Just park here!' He didn't want to ruin the surprise so he parked, and we went in the wrong entrance... woops! As we're walking up, I saw two of my best friends (who lived in Atlanta) run inside the restaurant. I was so confused, and I turned around to face Jimmy, and he dropped to one knee, opened a box, and asked me to marry him. I was so confused/excited/surprised, I just screamed for a while before saying, 'Yes' Jimmy had invited all our friends from all different cities, and they all came out from inside the restaurant where they were hiding and we celebrated. I've never been so surprised in all my life!"
Jimmy-- what's one thing you admire most about Molly?
Jimmy: "One of the things I admire most about Molly is her sweet and loving nature to everyone. It's why everyone is instantly drawn to her."
Molly-- what's one of the things you admire most about Jimmy?
Molly: "One of the things I admire most about Jimmy is his ability to stay calm and to calm me down in stressful times. I stress easily, but he balances me out and assures me that things are going to be alright."
What was each of yall's favorite part of the day?
Molly: "My favorite part of the day was eating alone together after the ceremony. It was the first time we had been alone all day to actually talk to each other and take in everything."
Jimmy: "My favorite part of the day was when I first saw my bride in her wedding dress. She was so beautiful, and it was a perfect moment."
Molly: "We're currently living and working in Asheville, NC. We love this city, but we're considering moving closer to home. No definite plans have been made, so stay tuned!"
