Molly Kate Matthews and William Flournoy Hamilton III were married Oct. 9, 2010, in Teton Valley, Idaho. Rev. Jimbo Tucker officiated.
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Ray Matthews of Oxford, Miss. The groom is the son of Mr. William Flournoy Hamilton II and the late Mrs. Katharine Mills Hamilton of Birmingham.
The bride was given in marriage by her father. She wore a couture gown by designer Sandra Ashford of the Ashford Collection. The ivory antique Alencon chantilly lace dress over latte silk charmeuse was fashioned with a sculptured, strapless sweetheart neckline. Seed pearls and Austrian crystals encrusted the chantilly. The v-bodice closed in the back with covered buttons extending into a molded contoured body that fell into a flared skirt and chapel-length train. Her sash was adorned by her late grandmother’s brooch. Her cathedral veil of ivory Brussels lace was an heirloom from the groom’s family.
Taylor Kilgore of Ridgeland, Miss., was the matron of honor. Bridesmaids were Natalie Arnemann and Morgan Samuels of Jackson, Miss.; Callie Bernet, Anne Purdon and Gina Rounsaville of Oxford; Brooks Anne Berry of West Palm Beach, Fla.; Mamie Dean Brett and Jane Hedges of Nashville; Rory Jelks and Gigi Russ of Birmingham; and Afton Jones of Houston.
The groom’s father served as best man.
The bride is a student at Samford University pursuing a second degree in nursing, and the groom is a project manager at Dunn Construction.
After a honeymoon trip to Teton Valley, Idaho, and Jackson, Wyo., the couple live in Birmingham.
