Our Wedding

Sometimes, the most unexpected moments lead to the most beautiful beginnings. For us, it started at a Halloween party—Carson wore an inflatable costume that instantly made Molly laugh, and Molly was dressed as Little Red Riding Hood (or at least her best version of it). Molly had just moved to South Carolina, and within 24 hours of arriving, she met the person who would soon mean everything to her.   A few weeks later, after a bit of nervous anticipation, Molly reached out to Carson—and from that moment on, everything felt right.   As they spent more time together, their bond grew stronger. From cozy dates and twinkling drive-through Christmas lights to long conversations and even longer drives, they quickly became each other’s favorite person. On January 23, 2023, Carson asked Molly to be his girlfriend, and their journey truly began.   Together, they’ve shared unforgettable adventures—exploring Disney World (with a must-see trip to Star Wars for Carson), walking hand in hand along the beach in search of shark teeth, and even road-tripping all the way to Maine with their dog, Revan, and their cat, Kiwi.   One of their favorite places is Greenville, SC. For their one-year anniversary, Carson surprised Molly with a romantic candle-making class and an evening of hidden bars and cozy conversation. A year later, he brought her back to that very same spot. On February 15, 2025, surrounded by memories and love, Carson got down on one knee—and Molly said yes to forever.   Now, surrounded by love, laughter, and a whole lot of joy, they can’t wait to begin this next chapter. Their story started with a spark—and now, it's burning brighter than ever.
