In Photos: Matt Dumba's wife Blair gives an inside look at couple's Cancun wedding

This weekend, Dallas Stars defenseman Matt Dumba’s wife, Blair Blanchette, shared a series of stories on her Instagram, giving an inside look at their dreamy wedding in Cancun.

She reposted a highlight reel from their wedding cinematographer’s Instagram account featuring the reception and after-party. One of the clips captured Matt dipping Blair on the dance floor surrounded by floral arrangements and string lights.

“Reliving forever,” she added in the caption.

The second story featured a cinematic cover shot that read “BLAIR & MATT’S WEDDING IN CANCUN” with a blurred silhouette of the couple and a bird flying in the sky. The third image showed their wedding rings laid over a printed card that read “Blair & Matt” with a stylized blur effect.

In another story, the couple posed on the beach with palm trees and tropical greenery in the background while Blair held her bouquet up, partially hiding their faces. The fifth story gave a look inside the reception tent, showing a long dinner table setup under warm amber lighting with decorative hanging lamps and floral centerpieces.

Another click featured a sweet indoor moment with Matt kneeling in front of Blair, kissing her hand. The next story was in black and white and showed the couple holding what appeared to be their handwritten vows, seated closely together and flipping through small booklets.

The final story showed guests walking out of the warmly lit wedding tent into the night with “THE END” written in the caption.
