Our Wedding

How to get to the venue: 

Please arrive by 3:15pm to ensure you are seated by 3:30pm for the ceremony. The address of the Idaho Botanical Garden is 2355 N Old Penitentiary Rd, Boise, ID 83712 Google Maps &amp; Apple Maps will take you to the parking lot of the gardens. From the parking lot, enter the gardens. The employees at the front office will likely recognize that you are here for the wedding, but if they say something to you, just let them know that you are here for the wedding. A golf cart will be available to shuttle guests who may have difficulty walking. Walk past the large fields and ignore the large tent. This is for an event on Sunday and not a part of the wedding. The entrance to the English Garden will be on your left. Walk through the covered pathway and turn left again to make your way to a seat. Some seats may be reserved, but you can sit wherever you want otherwise. Please see the map below for additional assistance.

Brave the elements!

This will be a beautiful outdoor summer wedding! As you prepare, please keep the weather in mind. Typical temperatures in Boise this time of year range from a high of 77°F to a low of 50°F. Don't worry—there will be plenty of shade! As you make your way to the venue, please be aware that some areas have uneven terrain. While most of the venue is paved, there is a short stretch of dirt and gravel leading to the garden. Additionally, you will need to walk on grass to reach your seat for the ceremony.

Gifts

Dear Guests,Your love and support mean the world to us! If you’d like to give a gift to celebrate our union, we would be so grateful. Since we’ll be flying to Columbus, Ohio right after the wedding, we kindly ask that gifts be shipped to us instead of brought to the celebration. This will help ensure everything arrives safely and saves us the trouble of transporting large items.Thank you for your thoughtfulness—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

The girls in the bridal party will be wearing light pink, floor-length gowns &amp; the guys will be in light tan suits. Guests are welcome to wear these colors, too!

Things to Do

We have had the incredible privilege to grow up together. We met in 2015 at Eagle Middle School, where we both enjoyed tormenting our math teacher. In 2016, I arrived at Ice Cream Allie to meet a friend. Jaden happened to be working there part-time, and he kept me company as I waited. I can't remember if we had any ice cream, but we talked and laughed about anything and everything. Minutes turned into hours, but it felt like seconds. The sun had thoroughly set, and we stayed far past closing time dancing underneath the string-lights and stars. My friend never showed up, but now I had made a new one. For nearly 9 years now, it has been us. We were together through high school &amp; college, through every bad haircut &amp; terrible dye-job, and through each new job &amp; new city. Jaden has always been there, in every way. He is my longtime best friend, my closest confidant, my own personal comedian, therapist, and chef. It has been a privilege to grow up together. Now, we are ready to grow old together.
