Maggie and Nate met in 2011 while they were both working at the same company. After friendly conversations and working together for a while, they became good friends. They loved spending time together and hanging out with their fun co-workers. It was not until a couple of years later, that their friendship turned into something much deeper and more meaningful. Maggie said she knew Nate was the one for her when he finally asked her on their first date. “He professed how much he cared for me and we had been such good friends for so long and I just knew I felt that same way about him. I felt like the puzzle of my life had finally started to come together!”
After dating for a little while, Nate surprised Maggie on her 27th birthday with the best present ever, a proposal! He treated her on the morning of her birthday with breakfast in bed. As she was sipping her mimosa he pulled out his first present for her. It was a journal, filled with entries documenting the important moments they shared together. The last entry of the journal said “I want to marry you someday and I hope you say, ‘yes.'” Maggie smiled and said she would love that someday too. With that being said, Nate pulled out part two of her gift, an engagement ring. They both started crying and smiling and Maggie said “YES!” before Nate could even open the ring box!!
This happy couple was married this May, surrounded by their friends and family who traveled far and wide to be with them on their big day! Maggie’s father traveled all the way from his home country of Scotland (where Maggie was actually born) to see his little girl get married! The day was so full of joy! Maggie and Nate’s bridal party had everyone laughing and smiling the entire time. Bridesmaids wore beautiful mint green dresses that paired wonderfully with the groomsmen’s gray tuxedos. Oneida Country Club looked as elegant as ever, beautifully decorated with lanterns and stunning floral arrangements by Ebb & Flow Flowers. But nothing compared to how amazing Maggie and Nate looked together!
Congratulations Maggie & Nate!! I wish you nothing but joy and fun for the rest of your lives! You deserve it!
Such stunning rings!!
Maggie’s clasp broke on her dress and thankfully one of her wonderful bridesmaids was able to sew a new one!
Aww, just look at how they all gaze upon beautiful bride, Maggie! Makes me want to cry!
To commemorate the first time they went out together, Maggie and Nate took a shot before kissing! How fun!
What a cutie!!
The newlyweds, Mr. & Mrs. Hibl!!
How beautiful is that bouquet?!
Awww, I just love these two!!
Oneida Country Club looks stunning in the spring time!
Nate’s brother’s speech made everyone laugh and cry at the same time.
Before their first dance, Nate presented Maggie with a long stemmed red rose!
Maggie had not seen her father in a couple years since he lives in Scotland, so their dance was extra special!
Aww, seriously!! This image just makes me cry every time I look at it!
Nate’s dance with his mother was equally moving and sweet!

Beautiful wedding, couple and photos! Cheers!
Absolutely beautiful! My favorite is the black and white one of Nate & Maggie hugging outside. Maggie’s face shows pure love and peace. You can’t see Nate’s face, but you know he is holding on to her forever! So glad I got to be there to share this day with you!
