Our Wedding

Fall

#LoveByTheMoons

Jami and Adam were introduced by their mutual friends, Gibby - Best Man - and Tristen - Bridesmaid. After several months of dedicated matchmaking efforts (almost entirely from Tristen), Jami and Adam went on their first date. They've been an item ever since. Adam proposed to Jami on May 28, 2021 in Mazatlan, Mexico with his great grandmother's ring where Jami, of course, said "yes!" (Once she was no longer distracted by all of the crabs popping out of the sand that is!) Jami and Adam live in Boise, ID with their two adorable doggos, Ted and Diesel. Adam is an Electrician and Jami a Physical Therapist. They enjoy visiting local restaurants and breweries, watching The Food Network, going to concerts and comedy shows and spending time with their friends and family.

Our Story

Our People

It’s safe to say Bri knows Jami better than anyone. They have experienced everything together in their almost 20 years (WHAT?!) of friendship from their awkward teenaged years to more recent attempts at "adulting." We love Bri for her hippie vibes and ability to go with the flow. 
She is one of the most amazing, open-minded and compassionate people you will ever encounter. We have no doubt she will keep all of us Type-A's (*cough* Jami *cough*) cool, calm and collected on the wedding day.

Bri Strodtbeck

Stephen (AKA “Gibby”) and Adam met almost 15 years ago where they became fast friends as goalie and defenseman. Over the years they've shared countless road trips together as well as maybe a few too many late nights out at the bar. They are teammates, best friends and now the Best Man in each other’s weddings. You’ll probably find this amazing guy not so subtly watching the Stars game on his phone on the big day (which we fully understand as long as he is also on the dance floor). 

Stephen Gibson

Chelsea and Jami were introduced in college by their sorority and quickly became besties. They've shared countless adventures, wine nights and cheesy hallmark movie marathons together since. Chelsea is truly the most kind, genuine, goofy gal in the world and always finds a way to make us smile! With moves like hers, we have no doubt she'll be the first one to hit up the dance floor. 

Chelsea Tennent

Everything changed in 2013 when, in one smooth handshake, Joe slipped Adam his number after a junior hockey game. It wasn't long before the two were teammates and inseparable - some might even say it was bromance at first sight. Joe has many amazing qualities, but one of our favorites is that he simply cannot be embarrassed. You will find him in the center of the dance floor (hopefully in an epic dance battle with Chelsea)! 

Joe Glithero

Shelby and Jami first met during their freshman year of college where they bonded over their love of coffee, dance videos and unfortunate inability to study before 10 PM. Since then they have gone from classmates to roommates to best friends. Shelby has the biggest heart, a great sense of humor and is an all around amazing human. Her hair color may be ever changing, but we can always count on Shelby to be the glue that holds us all together.

Zach and Adam met in high school where they shared many adventures together including tearing apart their cars, staying up all night playing video games, mountain biking, skiing and a handful of other shenanigans that we don't need to get in to. After graduating, the two spent some time apart before reuniting as roommates. We are so excited to have Zach as a part of our big day! Keep an eye out for him and his beautiful daughter, Riven, who will undoubtedly be maxing out the cuteness factor.

Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match! That's right, you wouldn't even be reading this if it weren't for Tristen and her persistence back in 2018. And let us tell you, when this girl has a plan she WILL succeed! Tristen and Jami met through high school volleyball where they made numerous memories together. She is now married to Gibby, Adam's Best Man, and is known in our friend group to be the hostess with the mostest. She is fun-loving and spunky without lacking an ounce of sincerity. We are so lucky to have this girl in our corner and can't wait to experience the party vibes (and mimosas) she will no doubt bring on the wedding day.

Tristen Gibson

Eric is Jami's younger (believe it or not) brother. Although he and Adam haven’t known each other for long, they have quickly bonded over many trips to the cabin and holidays spent with family. Ever since Adam’s first Christmas at Jackie’s where he and Eric cracked a few (too many) cold ones together we knew they’d be a great fit! We can't wait to see what memories will be made as brothers-in-law. You definitely won’t lose sight of  Eric on the wedding day - he’s the really tall one towering over literally everyone!
 

Eric Fasth

Gabi is Adam's younger sister. She and Jami quickly bonded over their shared love of Disney movies and coloring. They enjoy passing the time by hanging out by the pool and, of course, making fun of Adam whenever possible. We are so excited to have Gabi be a part of our big day and even more excited for she and Jami to officially call each other sisters-in law!

Gabi Moon

Pauline strives to provide memorable ceremonial experiences for each of her clients. As a minister serving the Treasure Valley and beyond for many years, she is highly experienced in her field of expertise. Fun Fact: Pauline was also the officiant for Chelsea's wedding back in 2018!
