Spokane’s first elopement venue 🩵
💍 Meet the Founders
The Vow Room was founded by Jade and Jonna. Former coworkers who quickly realized their shared passion, complementary skills, and love for Spokane could be channeled into something meaningful for their community.
After working together for a short time, it became clear they were aligned in how they approach creativity, service, and connection. Both had spent years in media, nonprofits, and community-centered work, and both kept noticing the same thing: people were craving intimacy and meaning, while weddings were becoming increasingly stressful, expensive, and overwhelming.
Jade and Jonna are both registered officiants, deeply involved in every ceremony hosted at The Vow Room. Each brings a unique background to the work: Jonna leads creative direction, marketing, and community partnerships, while Jade brings experience in production management, customer experience, nonprofit leadership, and event hosting. Together, they specialize in making meaningful moments feel both beautiful and easy.
As married women with very different wedding experiences of their own, they understand that there is no one “right” way to get married, only the way that feels right to each couple.
👑 Madam Twirl
Princess, AKA Madam Twirl, is an author who literally wrote the book on wedding planning, a ceremony artist, and a trusted local legend who has led hundreds of weddings and celebrations. After years of working in large, traditional events, she became deeply committed to smaller, more intentional ceremonies where connection, presence, and meaning come first.
With a background in hospitality and a lifelong love of bringing people together, she created My Merriment™ ceremonies: personalized, thoughtfully designed experiences for weddings, elopements, graduations, and major life transitions.
At The Vow Room, Madam Twirl brings warmth, clarity, and calm to every ceremony. She is available for elopement-day planning, tiny wedding planning, and custom ceremony design, and, when available, may officiate your wedding herself!
Madam Twirl will tell you, “Having a small ceremony does not mean you have to sacrifice elegance or the special moments we dream about.”
💒 The Vow Room
When the space that is now The Vow Room was first discovered, it was anything but romantic. The ceilings showed years of water damage, the floors were worn and uneven, the air carried the scent of warehouse dust, and spiderwebs filled every corner.
But the potential was undeniable. Tall ceilings, large street-facing windows, and a perfectly placed nook hinted at what the space could become. There was just enough room for a cozy get-ready suite, an intimate gathering of guests, and a ceremony that feels like a secret shared between people who truly love each other.
Located inside one of downtown Spokane’s historic preservation buildings, The Vow Room sits on a beloved block surrounded by small businesses, artists, and dreamers shaping the city’s future. Becoming part of that creative, community-driven fabric was intentional.
Today, the space reflects that transformation. Once a dusty, forgotten warehouse, it is now filled with soft light, chandeliers, and seasonal décor.
A place where big love finally fits in small spaces.
