A Lake Tahoe Destination Wedding
From the photographer, Charlotte Allegra:
Melissa & Kasey met while traveling, and decided to incorporate their love for travel and beautiful places into a gorgeous destination wedding at Lake Tahoe. Pops of grey and yellow against the the famous “Tahoe-blue” made for stunning portraiture. Their love for travel was showcased in the details – the wedding tables were named for places they had traveled together. The groom’s ring was made with gold they had panned from the Yuba river. The bride’s love of design was showcased in the flower arrangements – specifically the boutonnieres, which she designed herself. The couple did not have a bridal party, because they felt that all of their guests were equally special to them. The intimate wedding was perfect. You could tell that everyone there had a great love for both the bride and groom, and each other.

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.
I wore a gown by Alyne and purple Jimmy Choo wedges.
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.
Our escort cards were pine cones with ripped purple cardstock.
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.
Our first dance song was “She’s Got a Way” by Billy Joel. I listened to this song over and over again as a child.
