C & H’s Blizzard Wedding – PART 2

C & H’s Blizzard Wedding – PART 1

In honor of the “Miracle March” we are currently having, I would like to take a moment to throw it back to last March - March 2, 2024 to be exact - when the most lovely couple got married in Tahoe during the biggest storm of the decade. Now affectionately referred to as “the blizzard wedding”, this was one of those events that makes you grateful for nice people, a little good luck, a dedicated team, trusted vendors, and the most wonderful clients a planner could ever ask for…

This journey started with a clear and detailed vision of an intimate, romantic, alpine Spring meets Ralph Lauren inspired event in the couple’s favorite place with all their favorite people. And at the end of it all, I am happy to report that we were able to deliver pretty much all of that… except for maybe the “spring” part!

I will spare you all the details, but let’s just say that, with the storm approaching we knew that some backup plans would need to be implemented. And as each day passed, and the forecast grew more serious, we realized that Plan B might not be enough. We quickly went from Plan B to C to D to E and beyond to pull this one off, and I think I speak for everyone when I say there were a lot of sleepless nights that week. But when it all somehow came together despite the countless challenges, endless unknowns, constant changes, hard conversations, difficult decisions, and last-minute pivots, there was truly nothing more rewarding than seeing this Best Day Ever come to life.

So many gorgeous, colorful, and personal details were incorporated into D & B’s wedding day. But for me, the most rewarding part of their day was watching them genuinely enjoying every minute of their guests and each other. Being present and in the moment on your wedding day is SO important and these two truly made that a priority. Don’t sweat the small stuff… that’s what we’re here for!

Taking a moment to reflect on everything I have to be thankful for this year…

🧡An incredible season of weddings with so many wonderful couples in the most beautiful place on earth!
🧡A 2025 calendar full of more amazing couples who have entrusted me with the most important day of their lives
🧡An industry full of event professionals who support, encourage, and genuinely love one another. I am truly blessed to be able to work alongside you all
🧡To be able to say that I absolutely LOVE what I do… and that I still have the same passion for the work as I did a decade ago. I know this is rare and I feel so lucky that this is my truth

Happy Thanksgiving to each and every one of you! I am so very grateful and can’t wait for all that lies ahead!

The White House, as it is affectionately known around town, is an iconic property located just northeast of the Stateline casino corridor, across the highway from Edgewood’s golf course. Friday’s Station, its official name, was a nod to Friday Burke, one of the original builders of the home which was constructed in 1858. Friday’s Station was only two years old when it became an important home station for the Pony Express riders carrying mail in 1860. Then, in 1890, David Brooks Park, a cattle rancher with a family business, acquired the property as well as several hundred adjacent acres of prime land for his cows to graze on. Today, those adjacent acres house the Stateline casinos and Edgewood Tahoe Resort. Friday’s Station is the only fully intact original Pony Express Station that still exists in Nevada and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

So you can imagine my excitement when my clients asked me to help them plan their Welcome Party at this legendary estate. A close friend of the couple, is also a Park Family member, and was able to grant access to the exclusive location for their welcome event.

It was an absolute dream come true to be able to work at this venue. The beauty and privacy of the setting, the classic charm of the home, and the historical elements of this spot make it a truly magical place to hold any special celebration. I will always cherish having the opportunity to work at the iconic Edgewood White House.

Our sweet couple who met at the naval academy over a decade ago finally tied the knot this Memorial Day weekend! We were able to incorporate a few very special military rituals, like this sword arch, thanks to some really amazing and dedicated servicemen.
To all who have served and sacrificed, we are forever grateful. 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸

Part 5: The Finale

Wrapping up Katie & Quinton’s wedding… Guests finished up cocktail hour and made their way into the beautiful reception tent to find their tables for dinner. About five minutes later, just as the first course was being served, the skies opened up once again, delivering a deluge of rain upon the tent.

I love this photo of Katie and Quinton, smiling away under their umbrella in the middle of the downpour…. Happy as could be!

The storm later ramped up a little more, bringing thunder, lightning, and even hail! The guests were amazed by this incredible performance by Mother Nature - many got out of their seats to video the scene!

Shortly thereafter, we could see colors slowly creeping into the sky and we knew the sunset was going to be a showstopper! It didn’t last long but the pink and peach hues of the sky provided the most stunning backdrop for our sweet couple’s sunset session.

The evening progressed into night with wonderful, heartfelt speeches, a packed dance floor, and memories to last a lifetime!
