JACK & BRIDGET
August 26, 2023
THE MAIN EVENT
Bellevue, Idaho
We're beyond grateful to Jack's family — Jayne & Mike Flinn — for their gracious offer to host the most important day of our lives at their home.
We spent our 4th date in Idaho — we moved fast! — with an action-packed agenda that set the tone for our next 3 years together... fishing, shooting, hiking, river floating, swimming, and off-road driving.
We knew it was special, but it was only after spending a few months at "7 Dog Ranch" in 2020, that we came to regard the valley — its mountains, rivers, and open air — as the soul of our relationship.
We hope you'll join us for a few golden sunsets and fall in love, too.

FRIDAY THE 25TH
WELCOME BBQ
HEART ROCK RANCH
10392 Highway 75 South
Bellevue, Idaho
3:00PM - 7:45PM
We'll have food, games, drinks, and more for a casual outdoor welcome BBQ. This event will go until around 7:45pm.
While we will have plenty of food, this event will be ending early so please arrange for any later evening dinner reservations you'll need on your own.
Attire - Super casual. Shorts, jeans, cowboy boots, sundresses -- all work! Please check the weather and wear whatever you will feel comfortable being outside in. As it can be very hot and sunny in the 80s or 90s, we recommend wearing sunglasses, SPF, and hats if needed. The event will be mostly outdoors on the grass -- we strongly recommend against wearing heels that can get ruined in grass/dirt.
For those using the provided transport: We will send you instructions on when/where you'll be picked up and dropped off.
DIRECTIONS: For those driving: You can use Google Maps to navigate to the Coordinates noted in the link below.
The good news is that there is only one main road in the whole Valley (ID-75)! One disclaimer, if you type in ‘Heart Rock Ranch’ to Google Maps, it's going to send you to the wrong entrance. Make sure to use the google maps link below for the address.
To get to Heart Rock Ranch, head due south on ID-75, and keep driving south out of Bellevue. You’re going to stay on ID-75 for ~9 miles once you’ve passed through Bellevue, and you’ll then take the only right turn onto US-20 W. Head due west for 1.7 miles and you’ll see signs to take a left turn into the venue.
