"I don't think I ever really necessarily dreamed about my wedding as a kid," Julianne, 29, admitted to People. "But I know I will always cherish and remember it for the rest of my life."
The wedding weekend reportedly began with a welcome dinner for friends and family on Thursday night at the Blackwell Hotel followed by a beach day on Friday on the lake at Coeur d'Alene Resort.
When Julianne and Brooks exchanged vows on Saturday night, Julianne donned a custom Marchesa gown with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry while Brooks sported a traditional black and white tuxedo by Brooks Brothers, according to the magazine. Julianne walked down the aisle accompanied by her father, Bruce.
For the outdoor ceremony, guests reportedly sat on wooden pews surrounded by tulips and roses with flower boxes filled with billowing blooms, wild grasses and seasonal foliage.
"It was really important to me that we had our ceremony outdoors," Brooks, 34, revealed. "Julianne and I are very adventurous and free and wanted the setting to be in nature."
Julianne's brother Derek Hough -- who serves as a judge on World of Dance -- stood by Brooks' side as a groomsman, and the couple's two adorable Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Lexi and Harley, wore flowered collars for the ceremony and served as ring bearers.
"I've never seen a man look at a woman like that when they said 'I Do,'" wedding guest and close friend Nina Dobrev told People. "It took my breath away."
Guests reportedly dined on smoked Columbia River Steelhead with Washington apple slaw, chili aioli and ginger glaze charcoal braised shortribs followed by strawberry-rhubarb crisp topped with whipped sour cream for dessert.
The pair enjoyed their first dance as man and wife on a custom-made antique mirror dance floor. The reception also featured a photo booth and Sugarfina station for sweets.
And as if the evening couldn't get any more romantic, the reception ended with a fireworks display in the Idaho sky.
Julianne and Brooks got engaged in August 2015 in the same town where they tied the knot.

The blonde beauty called Brooks the love of her life in December 2014 when she also gushed about how honest and open she could be with him.
"I never really believed in the saying 'when you know, you know,' but my whole world turned around the minute I met Brooks," Julianne had told People. "It was instantaneous."
