Maxine Lopez-Keough met Jiwan Noah Singh, more commonly known as Noah, while studying at Sarah Lawrence College. Shortly after, they kicked off a two-year-long long-distance relationship. Determined to build a future together (in the same place!), the pair decided to uproot their lives in New York and Boston to move to Key West, Florida, where they started a real estate and hospitality business together.
Seven years later, Noah went shopping for an engagement ring—and 30 minutes after that, in the home the pair spent five years renovating, he popped the question. "That was as long as I could stand it before asking her to marry me," he says of the whirlwind moment.
They spent a year planning their moody Vermont wedding, which took place at Noah's family farm over Labor Day weekend in 2018. With the help of the team at Storied Events, the couple brought their big-day vision—dramatic celebration with theatrical, celestial, and gothic influences—to life. To achieve this unique aesthetic, Maxine and Noah also opted for a dark color palette, which was predominantly comprised of charcoal and evergreen shades. The bride's ensemble, however, acted like a light in the darkness; her golden-flecked wedding dress, which she accessorized with a gold-and-crystal crown, threw sunbeams during the evening celebration. Her shimmering look was one of the big-day details their 365 guests remember most.
The bride describes the vibe as, "lush, moody, and uncompromisingly non-traditional." Complete with classic cuisine, dancing under the stars, and an epic fireworks show to close out the festivities, the event was ultimately a reflection of the unique couple, themselves.
