their love story
Maggie and Sal were at a dive bar in Somerville, Massachusetts for amateur hip-hop night when they first met. After a night of dancing and a competitive game of darts, their fate was sealed. The couple resides in the south end of Boston and adores their neighborhood. Sal knew Maggie would want to keep their engagement intimate and close to home. He proposed in front of their favorite cheese shop, Formaggio Kitchen, under the rouse that they needed to pick up some cheese before visiting Sal’s parents. A stranger took an Oscar-worthy video of the proposal as well as photos of the moment. Afterward, they drove to Sal’s parent's house as originally planned, where Maggie’s parents, who had flown in from Illinois, were waiting.
an inspiring destination
Inspired by Martha’s Vineyard and the many trips the couple has taken to the island, Maggie and Sal hosted an effortless wedding in the gardens. It was imperative for the couple that their venue could feel like “home” for more than just one night. Lambert’s Cove not only offered a space with plenty of lodging for their guests, but it also included a storybook setting on Martha’s Vineyard. Painted white fences, stone hedges, and arbors charmed their photo reel.
what they wore
If you're in need of some timeless wedding ensemble inspo, look no further! The bride looked radiant in a minimalist strapless mermaid gown with a sweetheart neckline. To incorporate the blue from the color palette into the wedding ceremony, the groom wore a textured blue suit and sky-blue necktie. The adorable flower girls also rocked the sky-blue color on matching smocked tulle dresses.
only natural flowers for the ceremony
Opting out of floral arrangements, the English garden ceremony made for the most unique wedding aisle of live botanicals. The couple met at the end of the live blossoming aisle, where a pergola stood, overgrown with natural greenery. Fulfilling a lifelong dream of Maggie’s, her father officiated the ceremony.
DIY projects and handmade touches
Most of their day embraced a relaxed and handmade feel. Maggie did her own hair and makeup as she tucked a few white flowers organically into her soft chignon. She also designed all of the paper goods and signage for the event.
A blue and white reception with a special guest appearance
Charmed reception tables were set with blue glassware, bud vases, and dainty white and blue floral arrangements by Aubrey Maria Designs. And for a full-circle moment, the hip-hop artist from the couple’s fateful first meeting even performed that night!
