Jackie and Hannah: A Beautiful Love Story From HER to Forever

New England DIY wedding

Jackie and Hannah met five years ago on the lesbian dating app, HER, and since then, their relationship has been going strong. They were in the honeymoon phase and still were today. Jackie proposed to Hannah in Portland, ME, in front of a beautiful lighthouse the day before Hannah’s 30th birthday. It was a total surprise, and Jackie hired a photographer to capture the moment. Hannah also did a “ask you back” proposal in February and surprised Jackie with a Movado watch.

After their engagement, they took two years to plan their wedding on September 4th, 2021. Planning their wedding was challenging, but they both were very involved in the process and lucked out with their vendors. They wanted to keep their wedding in New England so that their friends and family could attend, and they found their perfect venue with the help of their coordinator, Tie Cole.

Their wedding theme was fun, bright, and happy, with blue, pink, and orange flowers, and a clementine seating chart. They had a Del’s lemonade cart for cocktail hour and wanted everyone to feel the love and have a great time. They did some small DIY projects for their wedding, but nothing too crazy. Hannah found her beautiful Maggie Sottero gown at a bridal boutique, but it was her seamstress who made it perfect with a beautiful hemline. Jackie opted for a navy blue suit from Indochino and even got her dad to get a custom suit as well.

Their wedding day was the best day of their lives so far. They had their first look on the docks of their venue, with Jackie’s father sailing his boat and docking it for pictures. Their bridal party and family cheered from afar, and their friend Tessa married them in a unique and tailored ceremony. They even set off rainbow smoke bombs after the ceremony for some cool pictures. Their guests enjoyed cocktail hour and golfing, and they were introduced into the reception with “I’m Coming Out” by Diana Ross. The speeches from their friends were both funny and emotional, and they even surprised Hannah’s brother with a birthday cake. The rest of the night was spent on the dance floor.

Their favorite moments from their wedding day included their first look, the ceremony, and their speeches. It was a day filled with love, happiness, and fun, and they would cherish the memories forever. Jackie and Hannah’s relationship was a testament to the power of love, and they were grateful to have found each other on the dating app all those years ago. They were excited to see what the future held for them as a married couple.
