Since 1852, Loyola University has been a Baltimore institution. It’s also where these two gorgeous Loyola grads met, so it only made sense that they sealed the deal on the very same campus where they fell in love!

When I first met Noey + Peter for their engagement photos in their Locust Point neighborhood, I knew that capturing their love for each other and the gorgeous city of Baltimore was going to be easy. As soon as you see their faces light up, you can feel the love these two have for each other, the school that introduced them, and the city where they combined their lives!

Noey + Peter got married in mid-April at the historic Loyola University Alumni Memorial Chapel. After the ceremony, we walked across campus to take portraits at all of their favorite spots, before heading over to the Mt. Washington Mill Dye House to dance the night away and celebrate this happy, sweet, and loving couple. It was the perfect Baltimore wedding for the perfect Baltimore couple!

12 Memorable Moments and details from Noey + Peter’s spring Wedding in baltimore:

1. Spring can be a bit unpredictable when it comes to weather and Noey + Peter’s big day was no different. Luckily, the rain held off whenever we needed to go outside and the threatening clouds in the sky really made the bright blooms and greenery around Baltimore feel soft, yet vibrant. It was the perfect spring metaphor!

2. Spoiler alert: I always carry clear umbrellas with me so we don’t have to let a little rain stop us from getting great shots in natural light. Great minds think alike because Noey had some, too! Between my stash and hers, we were super prepared for anything. That’s probably why the weather held off for us the way that it did!

3. Noey’s off-the-shoulder gown looked like it was made just for her. It was delicate and sweet yet warm and sparkly in the light – just like the bride!

4. Noey’s bridesmaids wore floor-length gowns in varying shades of soft pastels in pinks, greens, and blues. Their look was tied together with beautiful bouquets in pops of fun color from Violet Floral Designs. The entire wedding party vibe had a soft and romantic look but still modern and spring-like, especially against the soft pink and greens blooming throughout the campus!

5. Watching Noey’s father walk her down the aisle was so emotional! The priest’s introduction shared all of the big milestones Noey + Peter had hit together – meeting as seniors in college, graduating, doing long-distance, moving back to Baltimore, buying a house and becoming pup parents to Sasha – it was such a sweet ode to their journey together.

6. Noey and Peter really wanted to depart the church with a bubble exit so we worked to make it happen! It was a fun and energetic way to move from the ceremony to the reception. (It also made for some really adorable candid photos!)

7. After the ceremony, we took family, wedding party, and couple’s portraits around Loyola’s picturesque campus. Between the blooming cherry blossoms, the magnolia trees, and the tudor-style Humanities building, it was the perfect backdrop for this fun-loving couple that wanted to prioritize and represent their Loyola love story!

8. Their reception was held at the Mt. Washington Mill Dye House and one of my favorite details was how Noey + Peter took advantage of the lobby at the venue. For most weddings I’ve seen here, this is unused space, but they designed a fun lounge that looked like something out of a World Market catalog with a gorgeous floral arrangement and gold mirrored hand-written seating chart (by the bride!) across the way. Many guests could be found enjoying this space, relaxing and catching up with old friends.

9. Noey + Peter couldn’t let the night go by without their Corgi pup, Sasha! Their wedding cake featured a little Sasha figurine and if you know me, you know I love a good #urbanrowpup representation! It was the perfect addition to their adorable two-tiered cake.

10. Noey wore white-beaded Badgley Mischka bridal heels but also brought along white Nike Air Max sneakers as part of an inside joke between her and Peter… a testament to the fun and down-to-earth love they share!

11. Towards the end of the reception, Noey changed into a short, sequined white dress — paired with her Nike Air Max sneakers, she was ready to party the night away with her friends and brand-new hubby!

12. Ending the night with a Loyola photo on the dance floor was a must with this energetic and fun group of Baltimore friends… love me a good college flag moment!

Noey + Peter, your energy and love for each other is palpable. The way you look at each other is the type of love every couple dreams of! Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your love story!

It was an absolute honor to document your wedding and hope that you’ll cherish these images for years to come. I wish you nothing but the best and can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!

Naomi
