Our Story
After meeting at work in 2017 Hunter and Justin quickly became friends and started spending more time together. They would go for lunch together, chat about their days, and eventually started sharing their hopes and dreams. As their friendship grew, so did their feelings for each other. One day, Justin asked Hunter out on a date, and she said yes. They went for dinner at a local restaurant and talked for hours. They talked about everything from their favourite movies to their future plans. They had a connection that neither of them had felt before. From then on, they were inseparable. They went on dates, shared secrets, and supported each other through the good and bad times. They had found a true soulmate in each other. Justin proposed to Hunter on a beautiful February day at The Grotto in Tobermory. She had fallen in love with his kindness, his humour, and his love for life. Hunter said yes, and they are now happily engaged and planning their wedding. Hunter and Justin are a true testament to the power of love. They had no idea when they met at work that they would eventually find the love of their life. But they did, and they are now looking forward to their future together.

Gifts
As we’ve lived in our place for a few years, we really don’t need anything new. Instead of getting us a small wedding gift, donations to our honeymoon would be pure bliss. Then when we’re relaxing by the beach so blue, we will know it’s all thanks to you!
RSVP
The favour of your response is requested as soon as you can.
Traditions
The Brides family have resided in Northern Ontario for 5 generations. A tradition began in Anderson family that if a younger sibling marries before the eldest sibling, the older sibling(s) have to dance in fancy socks, where guests form a circle and throw money on the floor for the bride and groom. I hope Hannah has her dancing feet!
FAQ
Can I bring a plus one? Due to limited seating arrangements, invitations are limited to specified guests only. The wedding invite only had my husband and I's name on it, can my children come? Unfortunately due to our space restrictions in this heritage building we've had to make this an adult only event. What is the dress code? October is natures most colourful season, we want you to be comfortable. Please wear beautiful colours of the season, but please no jeans or white is all we ask. Where will the reception take place? Our ceremony and reception are all taking place at our venue, the address is listed on your invitation. What should I do if I can’t make it? You will be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding please indicate your regrets on our RSVP tab, if it’s after you’ve completed this, please text 613-485-2751 so we can plan accordingly. If you have any additional questions please feel free to contact us at any time, we want to ensure that everyone has the best time!
