Molly & Campbell’s Southern Savannah Barn Wedding
Molly and Campbell were both working on different reality TV shows when their manager made it his mission to connect the two. The three of them went out for dinner, and Molly and Campbell ended up talking for hours after he left.
Six years later, Molly proposed during a weekend getaway. She cut a hole in the side of a Nerf football and hid a candy ring pop inside for Campbell to find as they were tossing it back and forth. After hinting that something seemed wrong with the ball, Campbell pulled out the ring pop, and Molly got down on one knee with a real engagement ring in hand.
A month later, Campbell surprised Molly by proposing during a hike. “That’s the awesome thing about being two women,” Molly says. “I was totally caught off guard.”
The LA-based couple decided on a destination wedding to Savannah, Georgia — a place they’d visited and fell in love with a year earlier. The pair exchanged vows in front of a 300-year- old oak tree at Red Gate Farm and held the reception at the farm’s granary building. They planned special elements, like a photo booth camper for guests. For their first dance, Molly and Campbell selected “The Story” cover by Dolly Parton. And in addition to a two-tiered cake, they had an armadillo cake — just like in the movie “Steel Magnolias.”
To end the night, Molly and Campbell exited through a sea of sparklers and boarded a trolley that took everyone back to their hotel, where they continued the party at the Alida’s rooftop bar. “Our wedding was exactly what we wanted,” Molly says, “a casual affair with all of our closest friends and family.”
