Enchanting Evening Elopement – Hannah and Grant

Hannah and Grant – June 12, 2023

An Enchanting Evening Elopement in the Smoky Mountains!

We were thrilled to share the enchanting evening of love between Hannah and Grant as they embarked on their intimate journey of togetherness. Against the backdrop of the breathtaking Smoky Mountain forest, they created an elopement day that was nothing short of extraordinary.
The chapel came alive with their creative vision, adorned in the enchanting colors of hunter green and sand fabric, complemented by our vibrant wildflower florals. Hannah’s attention to detail was truly remarkable as she crafted her own coordinating bouquet, adding a personal touch of beauty to her special day.
To create whimsical and boho ambiance, Hannah and Grant brought rugs and extra decor, transforming the space into a haven of ethereal charm. Every element reflected their unique style, creating an atmosphere that was as captivating as their love story. For the ceremony, Hannah donned a sleeveless and elegant dress that exuded timeless grace. With a cathedral-length veil gracefully trailing behind her, she was a vision of pure radiance. Grant looked dashing in his navy suit, perfectly complementing Hannah’s stunning attire. Their children were dressed to match, adding an adorable touch of family unity to the occasion.
After the heartfelt ceremony, Hannah surprised everyone with a delightful dress change, embracing the whimsical cottage core style. Her new dress featured intricate flower appliques that added a touch of romance, and she paired it with a flower-bedecked cape veil that she handcrafted herself. It was a true testament to her creativity and dedication to making their day truly one-of-a-kind.
Set amidst the natural beauty of East Tennessee, their outdoor wedding was an experience filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories. It was a celebration that perfectly embodied the unique spirit of Hannah and Grant, showcasing their love in a way that was as fun as it was heartfelt.
We feel honored to have been part of their incredible journey, witnessing the beginning of their new chapter as a married couple. May their days be filled with endless happiness, adventures, and cherished moments together. Cheers to a lifetime of love and laughter!
From the Bride:
Our story is long and not always pretty. We took a long road and a lot of faith to be where we are today. I can’t say that we had a first date that I can recall. One day we just were. Nobody proposed, exactly. We had been talking about getting married and everything that comes with it and I said what if we just got married on vacation next summer and invite nobody? He said no, then said hey what if we actually did the next day. 
We came on vacation a year before and loved it so much we wanted to go with family the next year. I suggested a destination wedding while we were there. We are looking forward to officially becoming a family- and wearing my dresses lol. 
For fun, we like to go hiking, find new restaurants to eat at and watch trashy dating shows together.
