Superstar home renovation show duo Chip and Joanna Gaines put the ‘ship in shiplap.
However, instead of going to the venue, Chip detoured into a small shopping center.
With help from Chip’s mom, Joanna was able to create something truly special.
She eventually decided on a classic round-shaped diamond and a band with a vintage look.
However, Joanna turned down the offer, stating that the original diamond was more than enough.
“To me, my ring is part of our story.”
“I knew I’d marry her one day just by the picture on the wall.”
Nowadays, Chip and Joanna own their own properties in Waco that have become wedding venues.
Talk about a full-circle moment for Mr. and Mrs. Gaines.
When the moment finally arrived, it did not disappoint.
After the couple said their final goodbyes, the limo door closed behind them and the real party began.
“It was Beef Wellington, mashed potatoes and two different kinds of cake.”
Talk about ending an already magical day on a high note.
However, fate had another plan for the bride and groom.
Right before the wedding, the roses had been pruned.
This was one of several nontraditional elements that made the day all the more special.
There was also a set of twins in the bridal party and a set of twins among the groomsmen.
I mean, what are the chances of that?"
Luckily, Jessica was available to help at the register and take some work off of Joanna’s plate.
She ended up bringing her future husband, David McCall, as her wedding date.
Joanna Gaines is the middle child of three daughters.
It was just right for the occasion.
Chip Gaineshad the same mindset as his fiancee, choosing to rent his tuxedo along with his groomsmen.
Joanna and Chip were only focused on their own happiness during wedding planning.
Ultimately, the couple figured shelling out for a wedding was the way to go.
Chip’s parents, on the other hand, had a more relaxed approach to life.
Hopefully, she hasn’t started leaving her keys in her car.
A trumpeter even played them in as if the bride was real-life royalty.
But the fairytale ending did not stop there.
Once their stint at the historic hotel was up, their trip was far from over.
The pair spent about two weeks driving around Upstate New York without any concrete plans.
This led them to the enchanting Mohonk Mountain House in the Hudson Valley.
From there, the couple continued driving through New England.
Joanna toldPeoplein 2018 that it was their favorite trip ever.
