Modern Winter Wedding at Hagadone Event Center (Coeur d'Alene, ID)
Wow, wow, wow, I’m so excited to be sharing this with you guys!
I’ve known Ashley (bride) since I was a teenager. We played basketball (yes ma’am, we were ballaaas. random embarrassing fact: my middle school email was “superstar_b-ball_player”…..not even kidding) and spent countless trips together throughout high school. In fact, I remember quite specifically when she first began dating Ty! I, of course, continued to stalk their relationship, cheer them on, and gawk over their WAY-TOO-CUTE fur-baby (Griff is a doodle…need I say more?).
I was beyond thrilled to hear that they were planning to spend the rest of their life together. Getting to document those memories and stand by their side while they made it official was just icing on the cake.
One of my favorite parts of their entire wedding (and engagement) was how representative it was. I felt like everything matched their personality and their style and I LOVE THAT. Ashley and Ty selected the PERFECT venue and vendors from every area to help bring their vision to life - she had a pretty rad crew, let me tell ya.
The Hagadone Event Center is insane. It’s located on the Coeur d’Alene lake in Idaho, but it’s only about 30 minutes from Spokane, WA so it’s a great venue for Eastern Washington couples as well. Well, really it’s great for everyone! The Hagadone is a part of the Coeur d’Alene Resort, so couples and family can easily stay at the Resort, wake up and get ready in a gorgeous suite (which is what Ashley did) party at the Hagadone, and then head back to the Resort to spend the night in style. It’s got an “all-inclusive” vibe that I’m a sucker for. Plus, the rooms facing the lake have awesome views and a stellar balcony, which make for really picturesque and unique getting-ready photos!
Anyway - I am obsessed with all the details and the intentionality. I highly recommend everyone involved so check them out below!
Enjoy!
