"Our (almost) decade-long romance started studying abroad in London the summer of 2016," Mollie Mandel, an integrated marketing director of luxury at Who What Wear and Marie Claire, shares as she thinks back on the international romance with her now husband, Matthew Stewart, a managing partner at River Circle Capital and Galt Holdings. "I first saw Matthew at his fraternity party, where his band was playing the spring of my junior year. I remember turning to my friend and saying, 'Who is that?' I later learned he would also be studying abroad in London that summer and allegedly remarked, 'Who knows? Maybe I'll fall in love with Matthew Stewart this summer.'" Little did she know that was exactly what would happen when the two arrived in London that summer and fell in love.

The romance began in London before bringing them back stateside for years of dating while living apart between New York and Atlanta. "After years of long distance and a new home in Nashville, Matthew pulled off a surprise Central Park proposal while I was back in New York for a work trip," Mandel gushes. "Both of our parents were in on it, including my grandma, who gave Matthew the ring my grandpa proposed to her with 70 years earlier in NYC."

After their engagement, the couple started planning the wedding and quickly settled on Blackberry Farm, a sprawling 4200-acre estate in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in Walland, Tennessee. "With Matthew and I living in Nashville, it's become meaningful to us as a couple," Mandel shares. The wedding, which was held on a crisp fall weekend in November 2025, brought the couple's vision to life. Seasonal florals embraced the colors of autumn. The bride's wedding wardrobe included Danielle Frankel, Lein, and vintage Ralph Lauren. A performance at the reception by the groom's college band even tied the celebratory moment back to the moment the couple first met.

"The three-day weekend began with a candlelit family dinner in the wine cellar."

"I kicked off my wedding-weekend looks with a Danielle Frankel two-piece that felt perfect for the occasion—a nod to the mock-neck overlay I'd be wearing later in the weekend and to the stripes that ran as a through line in our design."

"I paired the look with burgundy Jimmy Choo heels, our color of the weekend."
