Lake Tahoe Photo Shoot | Rugged Meets Refined

Yippee - We have a photo shoot to share with you! We had the pleasure of working with some of our very favorite vendors, including Johnstone StudiosStems by DianaDoxa Studios, and the Ritz-Carlton to create a beautiful table inspiration filled with rugged and refined elements. We are often asked for inspirational ideas on what we like to call "rustic elegance" - elegant ideas with touches of rustic appeal. Well, You ask - we deliver! We designed a table of intertwining elements that consisted of rugged textures juxtaposed with elegant and soft touches. We also curated elements not normally found on dinner tables - rugged slate we fashioned into beautiful chargers, different sizes of tin cans spray painted rich metal tones, and unique floral choices such as dried pea pods and cotton.  The Manzanita Restaurant a the Ritz Carlton, Lake Tahoe was the perfect locale for our shoot, especially because it has a large leather accent wall that provided the perfect backdrop to our rugged meets refined shoot! Take a peek at the video below to see how it all came together.

Thank you to our fabulous crew of talented vendors for helping us bring this idea to life!

Our Favorite this week from Tahoe Unveiled

This week has been unintentionally devoted to some of your best allies in the wedding world - your bridesmaids! It can super stressful planning your wedding with the costs, budgets, family dilemas and destination wedding planning in general. But, one more thing to consider is the financial stress it might cause to your bridesmaids. It is always a good idea to come up with a rough estimate of what you are asking your bridesmaids to spend for your wedding and then making sure it's a comfortable and realistic amount for everyone involved -  take a peek below for the average costs of a maid.

Lake Tahoe Wedding Inspiration | Guava Goddess

The outside of this delicious fruit may be green, but when sliced open it reveals a juicy and vibrant peachy pink, and it's just plain gorgeous! I love the perfect blend of colors - it would be an amazing and fresh color pop for any wedding palette.

Our Favorite this week from Tahoe Unveiled

This week on our sister site, Tahoe Unveiled, we learned all about clear stones. I was intrigued to find out about Moissanite - a sparklier & super strong counterpoint to diamonds. See below for the cool infographic on all options (and alternatives) for a lovely clear stone!

Lake Tahoe Wedding Inspiration | Blushing Berries

Living in Lake Tahoe has many benefits, one great one being that fruit is in season year round - which is why I love a berry inspired color palette.  Deep purples pop set against almost any palette, and with a dusting of powdered sugar on top of sweets it blends perfectly with freshly fallen snow!

Lake Tahoe Wedding Inspiration | Keyhole Bridal Gowns

Whether it's cut out as an oval, a square, a round or a rectangle, the keyhole back is the epitome of subtle sexiness. I love the lace background and whether you are looking for a black-tie affair or a casual soiree, a keyhole back is a beautiful twist on bridal gowns.

Lake Tahoe Wedding Ideas | Marvelous Macarons

Sugar - what's not to love? I have a personal love affair with the sweet substance and love pretty much every.single.form of it. But there is something about the light, sweet, almost air-like consistency of a macaron that tops all other confections. And with it's slightly almond scented flavor it's almost something magical! Not to mention it comes in an array of colors, and would fit perfectly at home on any dessert bar. Yum!

Happy New Year! Our Favorites from 2012

We have had such a great year and we have so much to be thankful for, so it will be hard to narrow this post down to our favorites - there were so many! From being featured in Style Me Pretty, Tahoe Quarterly, Grace Ormonde & Wedding Chicks to designing some of the most magical and meaningful weddings yet, we have had quite the year! Below you will find some of our favorite features, posts and memories from 2012.  

Let's start with dessert first!

I happen to love dessert - and with little wedding cakes, it's practically a match made in sugary heaven. You can have the cuteness of cupcakes and the elegant design of a wedding cake with little miniature wedding cake confections! The cupcake trend is still going strong, and the classic wedding cake will go in and out of style - but with small cakes, it's the best of both worlds because you can have your (mini) cake and eat it too!

 

One of our favorite styled shoots from this year was a gorgeous bohemian-infused wedding inspiration styled and shot at the gorgeously rustic West Shore Cafe in Lake Tahoe. The West Shore Cafe provided the perfect backdrop for our styled shoot with it's warm interior and rustic decor. Click on the image below for our full feature on the Wedding Chicks blog!

 

 

Summer in Lake Tahoe means weddings, and lots of them! For anyone tying the knot in the peak summer months it's always a great idea to provide your guests with "Welcome Bags" - a little bag you give to each guest or couple upon arrival to help them make the most of their weekend here. There are a few essentials to include in this bag and we've listed them all in this post.

 

We were so thrilled to be featured on Style Me Pretty's blog this summer! Style Me Pretty is the end-all wedding blog and A.J. and Ted's wedding celebration weekend was one for the books! From the tropical, steel-drum infused welcome party to the late night dance party that ensued at Martis Camp on the wedding night, we could not have had more fun planning and designing this wonderful affair! You can click on the image below to read our Style Me Pretty feature or click here to see all the images from our gallery!

 

Paige and Mike's wedding on Lake Tahoe's west shore at Chambers Landing was so elegant, so beautiful, and so perfectly designed that Tahoe Quarterly wanted to highlight it in their magazine this summer! Paige and Mike couldn't have been a sweeter couple to work with and their wedding weekend celebration went off without a hitch! From the "Martha Stewart Backyard BBQ" design to the absolutely stunning flowers over-flowing from every nook and cranny of the venue, their summer soiree was so amazing! You can click here to visit the gallery.

We hope everyone had a fabulous 2012 and we very much look forward to the year ahead - cheers!

Our favorite this week from Tahoe Unveiled

This week on our sister site, Tahoe Unveiled, we saw the most gorgeous Winter  wedding bouquets! I know summer has more variety flora-wise, but a super crisp and simple white bouquet with touches of neutral color provides the perfect compliment to any dress - and adding in touches of seasonal flair, such as dried berries or soft sage, ties the entire bouquet together while still maintaining individual bridal styles.

Lake Tahoe Wedding Inspiration | Get Your Sparkle On!

I know I've said this before, but I absolutely love sparkle! It's glittery, it's glitzy, and I'm in love with the fanciness of it all!! For a Lake Tahoe gal, one of the few times it's totally acceptable and maybe even *encouraged* is New Years. It's a new year, a new beginning, and the perfect time to bring out your sparkliest self! So put on the dress you've been eyeing or have stashed in your closet, grab your closest friends and party-going people, and create a night to remember!

One Fine Day Photo Shoot featured on Mountainside Bride!

Today we had the incredible honor of being featured on one of our favorite wedding blogs! Mountainside Bride is an absolutely fabulous blog dedicated to all things mountain + bride and we could not be more excited to have our photo-shoot featured today! This photo-shoot took place at the Manzanita restaurant in the Ritz Carlton and was a combination of "Rugged Meets Refined" elements. Click here to read the full article!

We combined rugged elements found in nature with more refined pieces to create a blend of contrasts. A few of our favorite design pieces included incorporating barbed wire wrapped around glass jars with unexpected floral elements such as cotton and dried seed pods. We also spray painted tin cans different metal tones and paired them with mercury glass wrapped in lace to create a unique centerpiece. We finished the tables with a bright turquoise napkins and rugged natural slate stone used as chargers. Be sure to watch the video (below) and you can see how we put it all together!

Lake Tahoe Lakefront Wedding | Behind the Scenes with Coral Glitz

This week we wanted to show you another gorgeous wedding held at the West Shore Cafe this August. This Texan dream couple, with the sweetest family dynamic West of the Mississippi, was a blast to work with on their Coral Glitz inspired soiree! From the richly-textured and vibrant linens to the gorgeous duo of cakes, this wedding went off without a hitch! The vows were adorable, the speeches were so heartfelt, and the late night dance party was a blast!

Building the wedding on the big day!

This stunning deep purple textured linen (pictured above!) brought out the bride's love for bold colors...particulary plum and coral! The beautiful linens are pictured above bursting out of our car! Also shown is Johanna from Cake Tahoe building and designing not just one, but  two wedding cakes under the cake cabana!

Since the lovely bride loved a little glamour and some sparkle, we incorporated an array of chandeliers to float above the head table. Pictured below are these little beauties pre-install!

This amazing evening was capped off by late night dancing under the stars - no better way to end a gorgeous night!
