Tahoe Wedding Ceremony

photographer: Rachelle Derouin

The ceremony is the heart of your wedding day. Whether it is a private elopement with your toes in the sand or a large, formal affair, I craft each ceremony to tell your authentic love story and express your vision. By meeting virtually or in-person, I get to know each couple and I work alongside coordinators and vendors to bring your visions into reality on your wedding day. You and your fiancé are encouraged to be hands-on in the creation process.  Your ceremony will be personalized and custom to reflect who you are as a couple.  The process can be collaborative or completely hands-off, you decide.

Tahoe's diverse geography offers incredible scenery for wedding ceremonies, from beaches and piers to high mountain landscapes and elegant venues. A ceremony can be planned for just about anywhere. I am a great resource to help guide and plan for the perfect ceremony and event.
