On the 15th of each month we feature a new and magnificent wedding! This is more than just a weekly "best site" contest with a link to the couple's wed-site. We will take you through the entire wedding process...from the planning, to the actual event, and everything in between...including details which made each big day special.



Today I met the boy I'm gonna marry... Molly met Eric shortly after he was hired at the company where she worked. She says she made every excuse possible to go down the hall and past his office, until one night they made plans to go out with friends after work. Then they met to watch "South Park" (which Eric had never seen), and ended up spending the entire weekend together. The next day, Eric bought Molly roses - and as they say, the rest is history.
In March of 2000 Eric took Molly to Europe to see his parents in Geneva. While in Europe, they took a short trip to Paris. At the Eifffel Tower's 3rd floor observation deck Eric began acting very nervous, and Molly hoped he would propose there on the tower. Eric pulled Molly close to him and started babbling about love and other things that neither of them can remember now, and he asked her to marry him. She said yes! He had no ring because he had forgotten it in Geneva, and he wasn't even sure he was going to propose when they were standing in line, but he did - and it was a very memorable moment.
He smiled at me and the music started playing... Molly and Eric were married in a small ceremony at Trinity United Methodist Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on July 2, 2000. Molly describes it as a very casual, intimate summer wedding. They also planned a holiday vow-renewal - and set the date for December 29, 2000. The formal ceremony took place at 7 o'clock in the evening at the Trinity United Methodist Church. A reception immediately followed in the Family Activity Center of the church.
The band of gold I always dreamed I'd wear... Molly and Eric's wedding colors were burgundy and silver. Molly selected a maid of honor, three bridesmaids, and a junior bridesmaid. Eric selected a best man and two attendants. The couple chose to have two flower girls and two ring bearers.
Molly wore a wedding gown that was "perfect for her". The dress was a two-piece ballroom style with chapel-length train, and featured a corsetted bodice with cap sleeves. The dress had detailed embroidery in a "swirly S design", highlighted by silver-accent threads. The design is one that Molly has turned into her own personal art form over the past several years. She chose a tiara for her headpiece because she is the princess, and attached a simple fingertip veil with blusher. The veil had silver piping around the edges - and it tied in beautifully with her dress.
The cake at Molly and Eric's reception was a three tiered Italian crème cake with white frosting. The layers sat on separate tiers, and Molly wrapped ivy around the base of each stand. For accent, she also added small burgundy flowers to each tier. The groom's cake was a chocolate sheet cake with the couple's initials, and it was accented with chocolate roses.
I watch 'em bloom...for me and for you... Molly arranged all her flowers herself. She says not only was it very fun, but also added a personal touch. Molly's bouquet was made with cream and burgundy silk roses set in cascading ivy leaves. For accent she placed sprigs of baby's breath in the roses, and added burgundy velvet ribbons which hung down from the bouquet. All the corsages and boutonnieres were made with the same roses as Molly's bouquet, and they were accented with baby's breath. The bridesmaid's bouquets were made with red roses and baby's breath, and were wrapped with silver ribbon at the base. All the female children in the wedding wore crowns of rosettes. Molly placed a silver flower arrangement on the piano and Eric added two live, red roses in the middle. The red roses looked perfect set off by silver.
