Anna and Justin are such a sweet couple!! They are friends with some of our former clients and we were so excited when they contacted us about their wedding.<\/p>\n

Grant had the privilege to photograph their wedding and everything came together perfectly. All of the details were beautiful and Anna was a stunning bride…with a very happy groom. :)<\/p>\n

A huge congrats to the happy couple, thank you so much for asking us to be a part of your wedding…it was gorgeous!<\/p>\n

Enjoy, Anna and Justin.<\/p>\n

How did you decide on your dress?<\/em>
\nIt\u2019s kind of funny that I ended up with this dress because when I went shopping I had something very different in mind. I thought that I wanted a flowing, romantic chiffon dress. I tried a few of them on and really liked them, but THEN I tried on this dress. And I knew instantly it was THE dress. It is exactly what I always pictured myself wearing in my childhood dreams of my future wedding, and I couldn\u2019t have been happier with it. :)<\/p>\n

What did you enjoy most about planning your wedding?<\/em>
\nI\u2019m a thrifty person by nature, so I really enjoyed researching costs, coupons, and special deals in order to get the most out of my budget. There were a few times when I went into A.C. Moore with my mom and sisters, armed with 4 or 5 50% off coupons, and got a bunch of necessities at a really great price. So, crazy as it may sound, that was one of my favorite things about planning my wedding – planning how I could get things at ridiculously low prices! :)<\/p>\n

What was the most memorable moment about your wedding day?
\n<\/em>I think the most memorable moment for me would have to be right after our pastor announced us as the newlywed Mr. and Mrs. Justin Hipp. It was the happiest moment of my life!<\/p>\n

What are three words you would use to describe your day?
\n<\/em>Beautiful. Surreal. Joyful.<\/p>\n

What was your favorite detail of the wedding?
\n<\/em>Gosh, I\u2019m not sure that I could pick ONE favorite detail. There were so many special ones! My mom made my veil, so that was super special…we used one of my Nana\u2019s (grandma) recipes for one of the appetizers at the reception, all of my family was involved with my wedding in some way, and we were oh-so-thrilled with the ceremony and the music! It was a day that we will remember forever.<\/p>\n

What’s next for you as a couple? What are you looking forward to in the future?
\n<\/em>Well, I (Anna) have one semester left in my undergraduate degree at Bryan College in Dayton. We are living in Dayton until then while Justin works. After I graduate, we will probably move to Chattanooga for a while until we find more suitable long-term jobs. Those could potentially lead us anywhere, so we\u2019re excited to see what happens next!<\/p>\n
