In an exclusive interview withPEOPLEin October 2022, the designer opened up about the day she married Chip and recalled one of the most memorable moments of the night.
She added: “I just remember, when we got there, I saw how good the food looked and I asked my mom, ‘No matter what, will you just put some food in a container and put it in the car?’ "
“So we did our thing, we did our dance, we did all the things that you’re supposed to do at a wedding. And all I kept saying is, I can’t wait to be in that car with Chip headed to our honeymoon. And the second that door shut, I was like, ‘Thank God, this is why I’m here. I just wanna be with you and I wanna eat.'”
