In March 2020, Brad Paisley and Kimberly Williams-Paisley opened a free grocery store. The Store serves Nashville residents experiencing food insecurity and financial hardship. The Paisleys came up with a plan for a free grocery store in 2018 after visiting Unity Shoppe in Santa Barbara, so they partnered with local businesses to make their dream into a reality. Brad explained how the idea for The Store was born: "We took our boys to Unity Shoppe to teach them about serving others and giving back to people in need," he said. "And we came away surprised by what the organization had taught us. Most people don't want handouts. They want dignity and respect. Most people want to become self-sufficient."

When The Store broke ground in 2019, the couple even received a shout-out from President Obama on Twitter: "Here's a story about people doing good that's worth sharing: [Brad Paisley] and his wife [Kimberly Williams-Paisley] saw food insecurity in Nashville and decided to do something about it. They just broke ground on a free grocery store to help families in need." The country star replied to the 44th president's tweet in typical fashion" "Thank you! Oh, and retirees like yourself often get obsessed with lawns & landscaping. So, when you need a backhoe operator, I've just gone pro."

The Store was set to open in April 2020, but it opened early because of the financial hardship caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In a USA Today interview, Brad reflected on the need for a free grocery store: "We needed to feed people more than ever."

Believe it or not, Kimberly Williams-Paisley's breakout role in 1991's Father of the Bride played a big part in her eventual real-life love story.

As Brad told Country Living, he "was more intrigued by the girl onscreen than the one sitting next to him." While the iconic film became an instant classic, launching Kimberly to Hollywood stardom, it wasn't until Brad saw the film's 1995 sequel that he decided he had to meet Kimberly. Brad cast the actress in his music video for "I'm Gonna Miss Her" just so he could meet her and the rest, as they say, is history.

Kimberly has since used her role in the classic rom-com to help others. On Sept. 25, 2020, Kimberly and the cast of Father of the Bride reunited online to raise money for World Central Kitchen.
