Zags Tying the Knot!

The Bordewick wedding.
’18 August Braun and ’18 Abby (Bordewick) began their love story at 30,000 feet. Though they grew up just 15 minutes apart in Minnesota, the two didn’t meet until they were on a flight to Spokane for their first year at Gonzaga. They tied the knot 11 years later.
