Kurt and Heather planned their wedding a few months in advance, and it was just what they ordered: family and close friends attending and a splendid time in Lake Tahoe.
The bride and groom did not want to see one another before the wedding so we took care of that.
Then the ceremony began.
After the ceremony we had fun taking photos of everyone. Even dogs are a welcome and cherished part of our weddings!
I loved the decisiveness of Shayna and Michael when they called to make arrangements for their wedding. Although they had been dating for 6 years, when they decided to get married they acted on that decision right away. We scheduled the ceremony for 4 days after that initial phone call. They already had their wedding license, and 4 days was plenty of time for me to create a custom ceremony for them. They decided they wanted our Elopement Special package, which is our most popular one, on the appointed day, we had a beautiful summer day with great weather for their wedding.
They wanted a ceremony with just a little bit of religion incorporated into it, so I incorporated part of the passage of Ecclesiastes 3 into their ceremony. This passage is all about timing, and they felt the timing was perfect for their wedding. We also had a more secular reading that talked about love, traditional wedding vows, and the traditional Indian wedding blessing for their close.
The venue was Logan Shoals Vista Point, photography by Image Angels.

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!

I think they had a wonderful time, I know we did!
