Wedding Date on Oct 20, 2018

When we met these two actors/playwrights/comedians/rappers/basically any other form of talent you could name….ahem….we’ll start again… when we met Grace Gillespie and Damon J. Gillespie they told us, “We’re Extra.” Well. No one loves extra more than we do. Grace and Damon met while performing in a musical together in Chattanooga, Tn and they spent the rest of their multiple year courtship gallivanting to the Big Apple to pursue their passions in music, acting, comedy and performance art. Grace is an incredible comedian and playwright and Damon is dancer and actor. Damon recently starred in “Rise” on NBC and Netflix’s “Society”. Grace has a new podcast called “Tell Me On A Sunday” and a solo play showing that she authored and performs in: “To Free a Mockingbird”. These two put in work. Their wedding day was no different. They spent the entire months prior planning an epic performance filled adventure for their friends and family, some local to Dalton, Ga and Chattanooga, Tn and others from New York! The day before the wedding they tossed out the traditional “rehearsal dinner” and went to a local theme park dressed to the nines just to laugh and capture some epic memories on the rollercoasters and swings with their wedding party. They had a beautiful wedding day at the historic restored Turnbull building in downtown Chattanooga; with Playbill themes, a choreographed dance with costume changes and Damon definitely rapped with his buddies while he got ready. Their extra definitely didn’t disappoint us.
