Elizabeth and Marc came to us wanting an intimate elopement in Lake Tahoe. Family would have meant a very large wedding, and while they love their family, they preferred to experience the intimacy of an elopement and have a reception with the family later. They wanted a religious ceremony, and, luckily, didn't care what the weather was! Elizabeth told me a snowy day was PERFECT!

They arrived and we got started on the wedding license.....

Then we headed out to the bluff for the ceremony, accompanied by me, the photographer and the videographer, who signed as witnesses on the wedding license. It cleared up nicely for their ceremony.

Afterwards we took photos and did some more video, walking around the area to take advantage of the different views. Even though we couldn't see much of the lake, it was still beautiful!
