Outdoor
Weddings
Abundant with scenic vistas, mysterious coves, magical mountain-tops
with forested glens and even glacier-white, sandy beaches, the pristine
beauty and natural splendor of Lake Tahoe creates a majesty, an outdoor
ambiance, for any type of wedding and reception request!
The Dream-Maker’s Outdoor Weddings are possibly the very favorite
venue to offer to any You and your partner... just the wedding couple,
the celebrant and one witness, with the ceremony performed at the
top
of the mountain or the at water’s edge... this
just might be the perfect dream come true. Or, this ceremony idea was
a dream that you and your partner had, but family obligations have
now created a much larger function than the wedding couple had in
mind. Call The Dream-Maker® in Lake Tahoe to accommodate any wedding/reception
guest list. The Mountain Top ceremony is available from mid spring
to late fall, weather permitting. Lakeside ceremonies are performed
year round.
Lakeside
ceremonies can be organized by The Dream-Maker® at the water’s
edge, keeping the entire event extremely intimate. Mother Nature quietly
offers her flawless and perfect gift to the wedding couple... a backdrop
of silver, granite boulders with sparkling, sapphire skies blending
into crystal, blue waters. Hence, the Native American Pauite name
given to our area means Da’aow, "Lake In The Sky". These weddings
can be performed year-round.
Our
entire Dream-Maker® staff will impeccably custom design your outdoor
wedding and attend to all the special details imaginable... even down
to locking in on that perfect tee off time for the grooms and groomsmen
at one of Tahoe’s incredible golf courses, or the brides and bridesmaids
relax before the wedding on a private yacht or boat cruise, including
a completely catered luncheon.
Lakeside weddings officiated by one of The Dream-Maker’s six,
non-denominational celebrants (wedding officiates) can take place right
on a Tahoe beach, perhaps at sunset, or, in a panoramic, lake view,
cathedral-beamed ceiling living room of a lake shore property. In
winter, we specialize in ceremonies directly in front of a river-rock
fireplace, located in a living room with spectacular view and impeccable
amenities.
Lakeside
receptions coordinated by The Dream-Maker®, whether small and
intimate, or large and luxurious, are also one of our most significantly
dramatic functions that The Dream-Maker® can provide, orchestrating
any detail that one can think of... beaches, estates or homes with
decks and lawns, white-carpeted condominiums; private facilities reserved
just for your private party... all of the above ,with stunning lake
views, are available year-round, depending upon availability. If the
wedding couple’s budget and schedule allow, The Dream-Maker® will
even plan a personal itinerary of a day-long site tour to inspect
and find the perfect accommodations, as well as the ultimate ceremony
and reception site... keeping in mind that dancing and dining under
the Tahoe stars is the ultimate!
The
following outdoor ceremonies include the wedding officiate, music, your coordinator,
and chapel facility as a weather back-up. Depending on the package
chosen, 20 minutes of coordination is provided before event and anywhere
