Julianne Hough married NHL player Brooks Laich in a stunning ceremony on Lake Coeur d’Alene, Idaho on July 8, and the Dancing With the Stars judge and her husband have both since taken to social media to open up about their special day.

“The weekend finally arrived- And it was MAGICAL!!!

The dancer told PEOPLE that she and Laich had their hearts set on tying the knot on the lake, where Hough spent summers growing up.

“When I introduced Brooks to the lake, he fell in love with this special spot, and we knew this was where we wanted to raise our family and grow old together,” she said. “It just felt right to be married here.”

People also shared video of the pair’s weekend on Twitter, and it’s safe to say Laich’s reaction when he saw his bride in her wedding gown is pure sweetness.

Hough called her wedding weekend “perfection.”

“I don’t think I ever really necessarily dreamed about my wedding as a kid,” she said. “But I know I will always cherish and remember it for the rest of my life.”
