Rustic Chic on Lake Tahoe

Jessica & Joe | June 23rd | Lake Tahoe, California

From the bride, Jessica:
We both love the mountains and lakes. I skied in Lake Tahoe as a kid and remembered the picturesque landscape, the large pine cones and the relaxed atmosphere.  So, when it came to deciding on where to have our big day, Lake Tahoe had everything we were looking for.

We held our short and charming ceremony on the lawn with panoramic views of Lake Tahoe.

The aisle was lined with red rose pedals, purple ribbon and pine cones.

We hung several family photo collages and used chalkboards to create a rustic feel.

For decor, we used lots of lanterns and mason jars along with a summer mix of flowers that were simple yet gorgeous.

Joe’s favorite board game is Scrabble and those who know him would consider him obsessed and unusually talented at this game.  So we used Scrabble letters for the table names that were all places we have been along with pictures of us at that destination.
