We're Getting Married!

Huw and Abbey met through mutual friends on the Furman Men's and Women's Lacrosse teams during Huw's freshman year. Abbey was a sophomore and they didn't know each other well until one night at Connolly's Irish Pub, the most popular college bar in Greenville. Huw walked up to a group of girls and asked Abbey if he could buy her a drink, she said "sure" and agreed to talk to him... they never looked back.

Abbey met Huw in Greenville the evening before the Muhly's annual family vacation to the Outer Banks. After eating dinner on the balcony, Abbey went inside to start cleaning up the food while Huw went to the bathroom (or so she thought). She turned around from putting leftovers in the refrigerator to see Huw walking into the kitchen with his arm held stiffly at his side. Huw got down on one knee and explained that he was planning to propose on the beach, but he could not wait any longer. Abbey was truly shocked and managed to blubber out a lot of "what, but yes, but why, but what!?!!"

The Westin Poinsett holds a special place in our eyes and we cannot wait to share it with our loved ones in October 2021!! After spending our first evening chatting at Connolly's Pub, Huw came up with the wonderful idea to try to get to the roof of the nicest hotel in downtown Greenville. We made it into the Westin and up as many flights as the stairs allowed. Unfortunately, we couldn't make it to the roof that night, but 5 years later we are SO excited to finally see the Westin's roof as a married couple :) P.S. Our favorite drinks offered at the Westin bar are the Pomtini (a pomegranate cosmo) and the Espresso Martini - Cheers!
