Question
Why Spokane?
Answer
We met and fell in love in Spokane, so it has a special place in our hearts. When we thought about where we wanted to get married, we wanted it to be somewhere meaningful for us, and Spokane felt like the natural choice. For more reasons to love Spokane, see our Things To Do page!
