They Met

5/17/2021

Matt and Molly first met while working at Turner Construction in Columbus, Ohio. New to the industry, Molly found herself asking Matt many, many questions. What started as helpful conversations quickly turned into a meaningful connection, sparked by a shared love of gaming, exercise, and time spent outdoors.

They Moved

Their friendship soon blossomed into an exciting new relationship, and before long they became each other’s biggest supporters. So when Matt received an offer for a new position in Northern Virginia, Molly didn’t hesitate to join him for the next big adventure. Life in Virginia brought new routines, new favorite spots, and even more reasons to laugh together. Between weekends exploring the outdoors, trips back to the beach, and cheering each other on through every challenge, it became clear that wherever they were, they were happiest together. It wasn’t long before Matt and Molly knew they had found their forever teammate.

They’re Making It Official!

Their story reached a new milestone in Scotland, where Matt proposed on top of Conic Hill during a Hesness family trip. With the stunning views of Loch Lomond as their backdrop, Matt asked Molly to spend forever with him — and she could barely wait to say yes. Now, they are so excited to bring families and friends together to make it official!
