Garden of the Gods Wedding Video | Maggie + Dan

Due to COVID, Maggie and Dan rescheduled their wedding three times! They originally planned to get married in Canada but eventually celebrated in colorful Colorado. We were very fortunate for the chance to take part in Maggie + Dan’s ceremony and create their Garden of the Gods wedding video.

Swipe Right for Love

Maggie and Dan met the same way many couples meet in the 20th century. On Tinder! They both swiped right and began their relationship in 2016. Three years later, the duo was ready to make some significant life changes and made plans to move to Colorado. Before the big move, Maggie + Dan embarked on a month-long trip to Europe. Dan prepared an epic proposal in Switzerland. He hired a photographer to pose as a travel blogger. Maggie didn’t suspect a thing and was shocked when Dan proposed right in front of the iconic Matterhorn Mountain. Dan earned major brownie points for his magical proposal.

Deerly Beloved | Garden of the Gods Wedding Video

The location of Dan and Maggie’s picturesque proposal could only be rivaled by Colorado’s own Garden of the Gods. Aptly named, this stunning natural landmark was perfect for a magical wedding. Despite rescheduling the wedding three times, most of their family was able to attend. The couple was happy to host their wedding in their new home state.

The wedding itself was memorable, to say the least. Maggie and Dan both teared up as they exchanged handwritten vows. They will never forget their first looks and an impromptu visit from a wild deer while taking wedding photos! The weather stayed nice, and the guests partied late into the night.

Next Up

Maggie and Dan’s February honeymoon will be well worth the wait! The pair has planned a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Tahiti. They will stay in a cozy Bungalow hut over the water. They look forward to relaxing in the pristine water, jet skiing, and scuba diving.

Maggie + Dan eagerly await building a life together and starting a family. As Maggie puts it, they are secure, knowing they will be driving each other crazy forever.

When we asked the couple what it was like working with Aflātis, they shared,

“Alftais was referred to us by our incredible photographers, Jesse and Moira from J.La Plate Photography. Aflatis was absolutely wonderful to work with! Adam was so kind, accommodating and made everything feel seamless! I don’t think he missed a beat! We can’t recommend him enough! It really meant a lot to us to capture our special day on film, and we certainly found the best of the best!”
