The Publisher & Her Prince

Ms. Molly Johnson & Mr. Jebb Stone

In the glamorous world of weddings, we meet some truly incredible brides and grooms that come into the store to register and have their save-the-dates, invitations and thank you notes ordered. Part of the glamour and build up in the wedding industry is largely due to the fine press found right here in Houston, TX. Houston Brides Modern Luxury is no exception, and their talented publisher, Molly Johnson, continuously does an excellent job putting Houston brides at ease thanks to her incredibly helpful and inspirational feature stories and images. Please join in the excitement as we celebrate the engagement of the Publisher of Houston Brides Modern Luxury, Ms. Molly Johnson!

Having met Molly multiple times over the years, we can genuinely say that she is a gem of a person and are tickled that she has found her prince! In fact, Molly and her fiancé, Jebb Stone, are set to be married on April 11^th, on the beach in Rosemary Beach, Florida. The couple’s reception will be held at the Pearl Hotel in Rosemary Beach and is sure to be gorgeous decorated in their wedding colors of gold, light pinks, white, black and hints of green!

We believe good things come to good people, and since Molly set a friend up that ended up getting married to the person she set them up with, it is wonderful to report that her friend returned the favor and introduced Molly to Jebb! Their double date “set up” was at a Houston Rockets game, and after initially becoming friends for a few months the two started dating – and the rest is history!

Their engagement story is pretty fantastic! Jebb’s mother planned a family vacation to Mexico last summer and their flight was to leave out of New Orleans (that is where Jebb’s brother and his mother would be meeting them to fly to meet the rest of the family). After a fun road trip, Jebb wanted to go to a nice dinner at Restaurant August, just he and Molly, to celebrate their upcoming trip. The couple’s private dinner celebration was even more important because they also wanted to toast the closing of their house, which had happened earlier that week. Jebb was so laid back leading up to the dinner that Molly confessed to being completely thrown off when he pulled out a ring and asked her to marry him! Molly added that it was the icing on the cake with all of the other excitement they had going on! Molly, we are pretty sure Jebb was so laid back because he knew he was about to make the smartest decision by asking you to be his wife. 🙂

…And not to worry about missing the family vacation, Molly and Jebb were able to continue the fiesta with family the next week in Mexico and more at home upon their return!

As previously mentioned, we are so happy that Molly and Jebb registered at Bering’s and are thrilled to share their selection with you! When we asked Molly why they registered at Bering’s she said, “Bering’s has always been top-of-mind when considering registry due to the incredible lines they carry and the diversity in products! Jebb was able to find things he wanted for the grill, knives, a Yeti Cooler, etc. I was able to fulfill our basic kitchen needs as well as fine china and crystal. They made the process easy and fun!” Did we mention Molly is the Publisher for Houston Brides Modern Luxury?! That quote is print-worthy and means so much to us, thanks Molly!

We have to confess that it was particularly exciting seeing what Molly and Jebb registered for, given Molly’s deep knowledge of the wedding industry, vendors, etc.! Be prepared to be dazzled by their selection!

The two opted for the oh-so opulent and regal fine china pattern of Philippe Deshoulieres Arcades Grey & Gold. It is truly magnificent and we are certain that it will be used at some very special events hosted by Molly and Jebb for years to come!

We also love their classic selection of Juliska’s Berry & Thread pattern for their everyday china! It continues to be a bridal registry favorite in our gift shop, and for good reason! This machine washable and timeless pattern can be dressed up or down and will always be a beauty due to its white finish and delicate berry & thread pattern, which gives it just the right amount of added detail.

We have to note that Molly was very wise and solicited the assistance of her best friend to help with their registry. Molly said, “We went with what felt like ‘us’ and was ‘timeless’ as well as practical!” She then added, “I brought along my best friend for her advice on what she really uses for day-to-day and special occasions.” Not only does bringing a best friend along help, but it makes for an even more enjoyable experience when you can share the moment with a loved one!

Some additional pieces that Molly & Jebb Registered for include Le Creuset, Simon Pearce, Reed & Barton and Waterford:

Molly didn’t say if her friend suggested for Jebb to register for a Yeti Cooler, but it is probably safe to assume that it was Jebb’s own doing! Kudos on registering for two different sizes, because they are sure to be used!

Molly and Jebb are doing their thank you notes in our Bering’s Fine Stationery Department and we just know their guests will love the added expression of gratitude upon receiving the thoughtful hand-written cards!
