Rebecca + Chase

Rebecca and Chase’s wedding was a beautiful reflection of everything that matters most: family, intentionality, and the joy of celebrating with the people you love. Set against the rolling fields of Spring Creek Homestead, their day was filled with heartfelt moments, meaningful tributes, and the kind of love that makes everyone around it feel at home. Congratulations Rebecca & Chase! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Chase’s proposal was as thoughtful as it was romantic. Wanting to honor the beginning of their story, he recreated their very first date from start to finish. He picked Rebecca up from work and took her back to the exact spot where they first met on the University of Idaho campus. From there, they stopped at Dutch Bros for mini hot chocolates, just as they had on their first date, before heading to a local Christmas light display. As they walked through the lights, Chase led Rebecca to a beautifully decorated old train station where he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. It was intimate, personal, and the perfect way to begin their engagement.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Rebecca had a clear vision, and with the help of her stylist, Haley, that vision came to life. While Haley encouraged her to explore a few styles outside her comfort zone, she ultimately found the gown that felt exactly right. As Rebecca stepped out to show her family, the weather suddenly shifted and it began raining, nearly hailing, in the middle of summer. Haley called it a sign of good luck, and Rebecca knew she had found her dress. The fit was nearly perfect from the start, requiring only minimal alterations, and she was even able to purchase it right off the rack.

On April 26, 2025, Rebecca and Chase were married at Spring Creek Homestead in Union Gap, Washington. From the beginning, they envisioned a wedding that felt intimate, authentic, and true to who they are as a couple. The venue’s beautiful open fields created the perfect setting, allowing guests to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the day together. With a rustic and romantic aesthetic, the celebration felt warm, timeless, and deeply personal.

One of the things that made the day especially meaningful was the intentional way Rebecca and Chase honored loved ones who were no longer with them. Thoughtful tributes were woven throughout the ceremony and reception, allowing their memories and presence to be felt throughout the day.

Rebecca’s favorite part of the wedding centered around a promise she made to Chase. His one request was that the first time he saw her would be as she walked down the aisle. To still share a private moment beforehand, the couple chose to do a first touch, exchanging personal vows while standing around a corner from one another. Though they couldn’t see each other, simply holding hands and hearing each other's voices created a memory neither of them will ever forget.

When the ceremony finally began and Chase saw Rebecca for the first time, the emotion on his face took her breath away. It was one of those moments where everything else disappeared and all that mattered was the two of them. Thanks to their photographer, they now have images that will forever remind them of exactly how it felt.

The day was also filled with special family moments. Rebecca treasures the first look she shared with her dad as his last daughter to get married. Another touching tribute came when Chase’s mother carried a pillow down the aisle made from his late father's work shirt, ensuring his presence was felt during the ceremony. Add in joyful reunions with family members they hadn't seen in years, and the entire day became a celebration not only of marriage, but of family and connection.

Her advice for future brides? “If I could give one piece of advice to future brides, it would be this: things will not go exactly as planned on your wedding day—but that’s okay. The beautiful part is, no one will ever notice the little things except for you. So don’t sweat the small stuff. Instead, lean into the moment and let yourself fully enjoy it. The day goes by in what feels like the blink of an eye. I always heard people say that, but I never truly understood how quickly it would fly until I experienced it myself. One moment you’re getting ready, and the next it’s all over—it really is a blur. That’s why it’s so important to pause, breathe, and soak in every little detail. Most importantly, stay close to your husband throughout the day. Spend as much time as you can together, because that’s what it’s really all about—the two of you and the love you’re celebrating. Let everything else fade into the background. At the end of the day, the flowers, the food, the tiny hiccups won’t matter. What you’ll remember forever is the joy, the love, and the moments you shared together.”

Nicole + Caleb

Nicole and Caleb’s wedding was a beautiful blend of heartfelt emotions, intentional details, and an unforgettable celebration. From personal vows and touching tributes to loved ones, to a dance floor packed with energy and a surprise outfit change, their wedding day at Lavender Manor was filled with moments that perfectly reflected their love story. Congratulations Nicole & Caleb! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Caleb’s proposal was one Nicole will never forget. On January 13, 2024, the coldest day of the year, he got down on one knee on the shores of Coeur d’Alene Lake surrounded by some of their closest friends. Despite the freezing temperatures, it was the perfect beginning to their next chapter together.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Nicole’s journey was full of surprises. Going into the process, she was convinced she needed a gown with a low back and considered it a non-negotiable detail. After several visits to Believe Bride and plenty of dress shopping, she found herself falling in love with something completely different. A strapless gown with beautiful bows captured her heart, proving that sometimes the perfect dress is the one you least expect. Nicole credits Megan for helping guide her through the process and finding the gown that felt exactly right.

On June 20, 2025, Nicole and Caleb were married at Lavender Manor in Deer Park. Leading up to the wedding, the forecast had them worried about rain, but their concerns quickly disappeared. As Nicole made her entrance, the sun emerged and created what felt like the perfect backdrop for their ceremony.

Some of Nicole’s favorite moments came during the ceremony itself. A close friend served as their officiant and helped create a deeply personal experience. The couple also chose to share their own vows in front of family and friends, setting a meaningful tone for the day and allowing everyone present to witness the love they share.

One especially memorable moment happened just before the ceremony began. Standing at the altar, Nicole and Caleb took a pause to look out at all of their guests before everything officially started. Seeing so many loved ones gathered in one place to celebrate them created a feeling they will never forget.

The day was also filled with thoughtful tributes to family members who could not be there. Nicole and Caleb surprised their parents with memory chairs dedicated to their grandparents who had passed away, creating a touching way to honor their presence and legacy. Nicole also chose meaningful items for her something old, new, borrowed, and blue, ensuring every detail carried special significance.

As emotional as the ceremony was, the reception brought just as much excitement. Listening to speeches from friends and family made the couple feel incredibly loved, and once the party began, the celebration truly took off. One of the highlights was Nicole’s outfit change into a sparkly Taylor Swift-inspired jumpsuit, which quickly became a crowd favorite and made the dance floor even more fun.

Her advice for future brides? “Try to enjoy the stressful journey of planning and remember that no matter what happens, you will be married to your person at the end of the day.”

Mya + Noah

Mya and Noah’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that even when the days leading up to your wedding feel stressful, everything has a way of falling perfectly into place. Surrounded by family and friends at Chateau Rive, the couple celebrated their love with heartfelt private vows, plenty of laughter, and memories they will cherish forever. Congratulations Mya & Noah! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Their love story came full circle when Noah proposed at Riverfront Park, the very same place where they had their first date. The location held so much meaning for the couple that they even returned there for wedding photos, making it a special thread woven throughout their journey together.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Mya was surprised by what she fell in love with. Going into the process, she was convinced she was a lace bride. However, after trying on different styles, she found herself drawn to a much simpler look. In the end, the gown she chose felt perfectly like her and proved that sometimes the dress you least expect becomes the one.

On June 20, 2025, Mya and Noah were married at Chateau Rive. While some out-of-town family members were unable to attend, the day itself exceeded every expectation. What stood out most was the overwhelming feeling of joy and love that surrounded them throughout the celebration.

One of the couple’s favorite decisions was choosing to exchange private vows before the ceremony. Away from the crowd, they were able to be completely themselves and share such meaningful words without the pressure of an audience. Ironically, when they exchanged vows, they realized they had each written them in the opposite style of what everyone expected. Noah’s vows were sweet and heartfelt, while Mya’s were full of humor and laughter, making the moment even more memorable.

Mya also discovered something about herself on her wedding day: she cries a lot more than she thought. Throughout the day, tears of happiness kept flowing, so much so that someone even asked her mother-in-law if Mya normally cried that much. The result was plenty of emotional photos that will always remind her of how much the day meant.

One especially funny memory came during the cake cutting. As Noah attempted to feed Mya a bite of cake, he completely missed her mouth and dropped it on the floor instead, creating a moment that had everyone laughing.

Her advice for future brides? “The days leading up to the wedding can be so stressful, but the day of will always be the best day ever. Also don’t deal with any drama, it’s your day don’t let anyone ruin it!”

Savannah + Stephen

Savannah and Stephen’s wedding was a breathtaking celebration of creativity, romance, and unapologetically being themselves. Set deep in the forest at Fawn Creek Campground, their day blended vintage elegance, gothic charm, meaningful traditions, and a few unforgettable surprises. From a black bridal gown to a lightsaber battle during their first dance, every detail reflected their unique love story and the things they cherish most. Congratulations Savannah & Stephen! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Savannah’s proposal story is one for the books. Wanting to create something memorable and completely unexpected, she secretly planned a romantic picnic overlooking one of their favorite camping spots. After weeks of collecting vintage décor and creating a scavenger hunt of clues, she sent Stephen on an adventure to find her. But after arriving at the beautifully styled picnic, Stephen surprised Savannah by getting down on one knee himself and asking her to be his wife. Of course, her answer was an enthusiastic yes.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Savannah’s journey took an unexpected turn. She originally had her heart set on a black gown and eventually chose a beautiful white and mauve dress. However, after experiencing health issues that made the fitted silhouette uncomfortable, she made a spontaneous trip back to the bridal shop with her maid of honor. There she found a stunning black satin gown that made her feel like both a rockstar and a bride. In the end, Savannah got to say yes to the dress twice before finding the one that perfectly fit her vision.

On May 24, 2025, Savannah and Stephen brought their dream wedding to life at Fawn Creek Campground. Their vision was a moody, vintage-inspired celebration filled with romance and elegance. Guests walked through a "Tunnel of Enchantment" of trees to reach a candlelit forest ceremony surrounded by rich florals, greenery, and meaningful details. One especially touching element was an apothecary table featuring dried flowers from every bouquet Stephen had ever given Savannah, allowing guests to honor loved ones and participate in the ceremony in a unique way.

The couple also incorporated a tree planting ceremony as a symbol of their growing life together. Throughout the day, every detail reflected their personalities, from the thrifted vintage décor to the intimate family-style reception that followed.

While there were countless memorable moments, Savannah’s favorite was the surprise she planned for Stephen during their first dance. Just moments into the song, the music shifted to the Darth Vader march as fog rolled across the dance floor and their wedding party burst into a choreographed lightsaber battle. Seeing Stephen’s reaction made all the planning worthwhile and perfectly honored his love of Star Wars in an elegant and unexpected way.

Another special memory came during the reception’s karaoke celebration. Savannah’s daughter, who shares her love of singing, performed "Yellow" by Coldplay and invited her mom to join her. The sweet moment between mother and daughter quickly became one of the most treasured memories of the entire day.

Her advice for future brides? “Give yourself so much more time than you think to get ready. And try your dress on the day before to check for any last minute issues.”

Rachel + Nick

Rachel and Nick’s wedding was a beautiful celebration of love, family, and the place they proudly call home. Set along a picturesque lake in Orofino, Idaho, their day brought together lifelong friends, cherished family members, and meaningful traditions in a location that has played such an important role in both of their lives. From a one-of-a-kind custom gown to heartfelt moments shared with loved ones, every part of their wedding reflected the joy, faith, and authenticity of their relationship. Congratulations Rachel & Nick! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Rachel and Nick’s proposal was perfectly fitting for a couple who loves spending time outdoors together. While on a fishing trip at Winchester State Park, Rachel had a feeling a proposal was coming, but she had no idea when. The two have always had a friendly competition over who can catch the most fish, and as usual, Rachel was winning. After she caught and released one more fish than Nick, he told her she had won. When she turned around, she found him down on one knee, turning an ordinary fishing trip into an unforgettable memory.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Rachel had one thing in mind: a tea length gown. Although she wasn't completely sure what style she wanted, she knew she wanted something unique. The first dress she tried on immediately caught her attention, but she wanted to give every option a fair chance. After trying on several more gowns, she found herself torn between the first dress and the very last one she tried.

Ironically, the final dress was everything she thought she didn't want. It wasn't tea length, and it was much fuller than she originally envisioned. But the more she looked at it, the more she could see the possibilities. After extensive alterations, including removing enough fabric to create what felt like an entirely second dress, the gown became exactly what she had dreamed of. The finished result felt completely custom, and Rachel loves knowing that no one else will ever have a dress quite like hers.

On June 14, 2025, Rachel and Nick were married in Orofino, Idaho, surrounded by the beauty of the lake and the people they love most. While the venue itself was stunning, what meant the most to Rachel was seeing friends and family gather in a place that has been so important throughout both of their lives.

Her favorite part of the wedding was sharing Orofino with the people closest to them. Growing up there, both Rachel and Nick have countless memories connected to the area, and it was incredibly meaningful to watch their loved ones experience that special place alongside them.

Some of Rachel’s most treasured memories happened during the quiet moments before the ceremony. Having her mom help her into her dress was incredibly special, and before walking down the aisle, Rachel, her bridesmaids, and her mom gathered together to pray. It was a meaningful moment that grounded the day and reminded everyone what the celebration was truly about.

Her advice for future brides? “Just have fun! It’s only one day so soak it all in.”

Mattea + Allan

Mattea and Allan’s wedding was the definition of timeless elegance. From a romantic candlelit proposal to an intimate celebration at The Glover Mansion surrounded by their closest loved ones, every detail of their day felt intentional, meaningful, and beautifully personal. With soft lavender and sage details, heartfelt family moments, and a gown fit for royalty, their wedding truly felt like a dream come to life. Congratulations Mattea and Allan! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Allan’s proposal to Mattea was nothing short of magical. When she arrived home, she was greeted by candles lining the driveway leading to a heart made entirely of candlelight, with Allan waiting in the center on one knee. Complete with a handmade sign asking her to marry him, the proposal was a complete surprise and one Mattea will never forget.

When it came time to find her dress, Mattea knew exactly what she envisioned. She dreamed of an elegant and timeless satin off the shoulder ball gown that would make her feel like royalty, and the second dress she tried on turned out to be the one. The moment she put it on, she instantly felt like a queen. In the months leading up to the wedding, Mattea also lost 40 pounds, and after alterations, her gown fit flawlessly, making her bridal vision come together perfectly.

On May 25, 2025, Mattea and Allan were married at The Glover Mansion on Spokane’s South Hill after spending over a year planning their perfect day. Wanting something chic and timeless rather than rustic, they instantly fell in love with the historic mansion venue. Their intimate wedding of just 30 guests featured beautiful lavender and sage tones paired with wildflowers for a romantic, elegant atmosphere.

Their ceremony took place in the mansion’s backyard on a stunning sunny day, despite constant rain in the week leading up to the wedding. For Mattea, it truly felt like the day was made just for them. After dreaming of her wedding since childhood, seeing it all come to life was even more beautiful than she could have imagined.

One of Mattea’s favorite parts of the wedding was their first dance together. She and Allan spent weeks taking dance lessons leading up to the big day, and it paid off in the best way. Dancing to “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, the couple surprised their guests with spins, dips, and a beautifully choreographed dance that felt straight out of a movie. Combined with the way her gown bustled so organically, Mattea said she truly felt like a queen all night long.

One especially meaningful memory from the day was having Allan’s grandparents travel all the way from France to attend the wedding. It was the first time they had traveled internationally in over six years. During the reception, Allan’s grandfather gave a heartfelt speech entirely in French while Allan’s father translated in real time, creating a moment filled with overwhelming love and emotion.

Mattea and Allan’s wedding was elegant, emotional, and full of unforgettable moments that perfectly reflected their love story and the incredible bond they share with their family and friends.

Her advice for future brides? “I would say, try not to stress.”

Rayne + Brock

Rayne and Brock’s wedding was a beautiful celebration of love, family, and the moments that matter most. Surrounded by endless support from their loved ones in Lewiston, Idaho, the couple created a day focused not on perfection, but on being fully present with one another and soaking in every meaningful moment together. Congratulations Rayne and Brock! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Rayne and Brock’s love story took an unforgettable turn during what Rayne thought was just a family photo session. Wanting her family to be part of such a special moment, Brock secretly planned the perfect surprise proposal surrounded by the people she loves most. Afterward, the couple celebrated with Cinco De Mayo margaritas and Mexican food, making the day even more fun and memorable.

When it came to finding her wedding dress, Rayne had what every bride hopes for, a true one stop wonder experience. She only went shopping once, and somehow the dress waiting for her was not only exactly right, but also the last one in stock and in her size. It felt completely meant to be.

On May 31, 2025, Rayne and Brock said “I do” surrounded by the love and encouragement of their closest family and friends. Their wedding day in Lewiston, Idaho was less about extravagant details and more about the feeling in the room, pure love, support, and connection between everyone there.

One of Rayne’s favorite parts of the entire day was sharing quiet one on one moments with her husband. More than anything, she wanted the day to feel centered around the two of them and the life they were beginning together.

One especially emotional memory came from Rayne’s bouquet. Her mom added a flower from her own wedding that belonged to Rayne’s grandfather, creating such a sentimental and meaningful connection between generations.

Rayne and Brock’s wedding was a heartfelt reminder that the most beautiful weddings are often the ones filled with genuine love, meaningful moments, and the people who matter most.

Her advice for future brides? “Enjoy the day, spend the most time with your person as much as possible! Hiccups happen! Let it be and move on! YOUR going to have an amazing day cause you are getting married!”

Jolynna + Alexander

Jolynna and Alexander’s wedding was the perfect blend of timeless elegance and playful personality. Held on May 4, 2025, at the beautiful Montvale Event Center, their celebration featured classic, romantic details with subtle Star Wars touches woven throughout the day, creating a wedding that was both meaningful and uniquely them. Congratulations Jolynna and Alexander! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

From the very beginning of her dress journey, Jolynna thought she knew exactly what she wanted. She originally envisioned herself in a form fitted lace gown, but everything changed once she tried on a dramatic ballgown that completely stole her heart. Sometimes the unexpected choice becomes the perfect one, and for Jolynna, it was exactly that. Months later, she found the perfect reception dress to match, tying her bridal look together beautifully.

Because their wedding fell on May 4th, Jolynna and Alexander knew they had to incorporate a few Star Wars inspired elements into their day. Rather than making it the main focus, they blended those fun details into an overall atmosphere of timeless and simple elegance, creating a wedding that felt elevated while still reflecting their personalities.

One of Jolynna’s favorite moments from the day was walking down the aisle to a remix that combined the traditional wedding march with Star Wars themes. It was the perfect representation of their relationship, sentimental, meaningful, and fun all at once.

Jolynna and Alexander’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that your wedding day can be elegant, timeless, and still include the little touches that make your love story uniquely yours.

Mattisyn + Austin

Mattisyn and Austin’s wedding was a heartfelt outdoor garden celebration filled with meaningful touches, joyful moments, and the love of their closest family and friends. Set at French Gulch Farm and Garden in Kingston, Idaho, their day blended natural beauty with personal details that made the entire experience feel warm, intentional, and unforgettable. Congratulations Mattisyn and Austin! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Mattisyn and Austin’s love story came to life on September 7, 2024, in a setting that felt like something out of a dream. Surrounded by lush greenery and garden vines, their wedding embraced the beauty of nature with a romantic color palette of burgundy, maroon, and sage green. From a delicious taco bar to a sweet “loving you is sweet” dessert table filled with cookies, chocolate covered treats, and donuts, every detail reflected their desire to create a celebration that felt relaxed, joyful, and completely them.

When it came time to find her dress, Mattisyn had a very specific vision in mind. She came in with a photo of the gown she thought she wanted, but it was no longer available in store due to a fashion show. Trusting the process, she stepped into something she normally would not have chosen. That moment changed everything. As soon as she saw herself, she was brought to tears, feeling completely like a princess in her gown. It became the perfect example of how sometimes the unexpected choice turns out to be the most magical one.

One of Mattisyn’s favorite parts of the day was getting ready with her girls and experiencing the emotional first look down the aisle. Those quiet, meaningful moments leading into the ceremony are ones she will always treasure.

Their ceremony and reception were filled with love, laughter, and one especially memorable twist. Alongside traditional maid of honor and best man speeches, Mattisyn and Austin opened the microphone to their guests, allowing friends and family to share spontaneous words of love and support. It created a beautiful, personal atmosphere that made the celebration feel even more connected and heartfelt.

Looking back, Mattisyn describes the entire day as everything she had ever dreamed of.

Her advice for future brides? “Give people grace. Wedding planning and the big day itself can come with stress, but at the end of it all, everything will be okay and the joy will outweigh the chaos.”

Bailey + Coulter

Bailey and Coulter’s wedding was a beautiful celebration of tradition, faith, and timeless elegance. Married at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes in Spokane and followed by a joyful reception at the Spokane Club, their day was filled with heartfelt moments, meaningful details, and the love of family and friends surrounding them every step of the way. Congratulations Bailey and Coulter! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

Bailey and Coulter’s love story began its next chapter in the most peaceful and personal way. In June of 2023, Coulter proposed to Bailey at his lake cabin in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Surrounded by the quiet beauty of the lake, it was the perfect setting for a moment they would never forget.

When it came time to find her wedding dress, Bailey had a moment that many brides dream about. The very first dress she tried on turned out to be the one. She knew she wanted something timeless, complete with buttons cascading down the back and, most importantly, something she felt truly comfortable in. One of her favorite memories from her bridal journey was seeing everything come together, standing in her gown with her veil in place, surrounded by her loved ones who were moved to tears.

Bailey and Coulter were married on June 15, 2024, in a beautiful and meaningful ceremony at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Lourdes in Spokane. Staying true to their Catholic faith, they chose a traditional ceremony that reflected their values and commitment. Following the ceremony, guests made their way across the street to the Spokane Club, where the celebration continued with incredible food, lively music, and a dance floor full of joy. The evening was filled with love, laughter, and the presence of those who mean the most to them.

While Bailey shared that there wasn’t just one standout moment, she described the entire day as special from beginning to end. Sometimes it is not about a single highlight, but the feeling of being fully present and surrounded by love throughout every moment.

Her advice for future brides? “If something does not go as planned, take a breath and let someone else handle it. Your wedding day should be about soaking it all in, not stressing over the small things.”
