Kim and Hugh both attended Brunswick High School and met at a summer party. “We have been together for 11 years. Our relationship has been through a lot, from going to different universities, to Hugh moving to Grenada for 2.5 years for Med school, but we stayed together through it all. We had been wanting to get married for years, but we had both been really busy with grad school.”
Hugh proposed to Kim on Christmas Day in 2017. “We hiked up Maryland Heights, bundled up in a million layers, it was one of the coldest and windiest days. Hugh was acting a little strange that day, it was Christmas so I kept asking family members if they wanted to join in on our hike and Hugh kept saying he wanted it to just be the two of us. Hugh set up his GoPro when we got to the top to take a photo of us, and that’s when he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.”
140 guests were in attendance for their May wedding at Tenth Ward Distillery in Downtown Frederick, including eight bridesmaids and six groomsmen. “We had one of our best friends, Laura marry us. She had known us both before we were together and was there from the very beginning of our relationship. We also wrote our own vows, which I was extremely nervous about, but I’m glad we did.”
“We loved the vibe of Tenth Ward Distillery, so we wanted to keep decorations to a minimum. The space really speaks for itself. We loved the exposed brick and industrial feel. So we went with a black and white theme.”
Hugh is an anesthesia resident at Cooper University Hospital Center in Camden, NJ, and Kim is an occupational therapist. They currently live in Philadelphia.
