Dominic + Maggie, an Enchanting Backyard Wedding

On the most divine spring day, Dominic and Maggie said “I do” and dang was it a special day. These lovers are two of our favorite humans and we were so excited to be a tiny part of their dreamy celebration.

Long before they were making it last name official, these lovers first met about five years ago in law school. Dominic was a year ahead of Maggie and ended up being Maggie’s legal tutor. Even though they were drawn to each other and had a ton in common, including their mutual love for the Philadelphia Eagles Football Team, they decided to wait until after the semester to hang out. Dominic instantly fell in love with Maggie’s dog Coco and when they stumbled upon sweet little Popcorn at a local shelter, these babes skipped class to adopt her. After four years of living their best lives with their fur babies, Dom proposed to Maggie on the prettiest fall day at Lake Isabelle in Colorado.

Dominic and Maggie created an incredibly ethereal, yet completely modern wedding at Maggie’s dad’s home in the heart of Albuquerque’s North Valley. Every single detail of this day was nothing short of an absolute daydream. From Maggie’s elegant Sarah Seven gown (paired with her bridesmaids wearing all white!) to holding their magical little ceremony under the shade of cottonwood trees adorned with white and sage florals to the most epic backyard reception designed by Just Lovely Weddings to the unreal romantics all over this incredible property (that was serving major West Coast glam vibes), we are smitten with every last part of this day. And did we mention their killer playlist? Maggie walked down the aisle to Holy by Justin Bieber and these angels picked Til There Was You by The Beatles for their first dance.

Maggie and Dominic set the bar sky-freaking-high for backyard weddings and we’re not mad about it. Bring on all the enchanting, wildly fun, do-it-however-you-want days with the best lovers!
