When planning a wedding in the Treasure Valley, choosing the right venue is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make. You want somewhere beautiful, functional, and memorable , but also practical for your guests. Below are five great venues in the region, with one con listed for each to keep things real. At the end, I’ll share how Boise Vacation Rentals can help host your wedding party comfortably across multiple properties if needed.

Bonus & Local Notes
-
The LDS temples in the area are often used for ceremony services; they are sacred spaces with strict rules, so any associated weddings should respect those.
-
Many of these venues accommodate sizeable parties, but if your wedding brings families from all over, lodging becomes essential.
Why Large Homes Are Perfect for Your Wedding Party
Rather than forcing guests into scattered hotel rooms, consider renting a few large short-term homes through Boise Vacation Rentals. These homes can offer shared space for rehearsal dinners, morning gatherings, and continuous bonding time for family and friends. Because we specialize in vacation homes for large groups, we can coordinate multiple houses in Boise, Meridian, or Star to keep your wedding party close and comfortable.
When your loved ones stay together, memories are collected, not just booked.
