Lake Tahoe - The Wedding

 

All of this geared up to the big day of getting married. There was a little drama leading up to the wedding (there is always drama) like the groom being in agonizing pain from a tooth that needed to be pulled, and the forecast the night before the wedding of snow and rain and a high of 38 degrees. 

But what can you do? We just rolled with it. Luckily the rain came in the morning. It was quite chilly, but the sun came out right before the ceremony and turned it into a beautiful day. Tahoe is always absolutely beautiful. We kept the wedding small, mainly just family and a few close friends. And it turned out just wonderful. Simple, but just right for us.

My bouquet - I love roses. Maybe that's a boring flower to like, but I have always loved roses. For the wedding we got a ton of roses in many different colors from Costco. 

Seriously, Costco is the best. We had all the flowers shipped to the house, then put them together myself. You just have to get them out of the boxes right away and get them in some water. But by the next day the open up and are just beautiful. 

For my bouquet I had always planned on just doing red roses. My mom passed away a few years ago, and the groom's sister had the genius idea to have e pick out a different colored rose, and they'd put it in the center of my bouquet in honor of my mom. So that's why there is the one yellow rose poking out of the sea of red. I never would have though of doing that, but I love it.

After the ceremony we had a dinner on the lake that night which was divine. Everyone was beyond full, And anyone who left hungry - well, that was their own fault. 

Beautiful day.
