Tahoe Unveiled's Weekly Juice!

This week on our sister site we got all giddy from two gorgeous weddings at Northstar & The Ritz Carlton, saw the beauty in tying the knot under a beautiful tree, were bowled over in laughter with hilarious & unique wedding images, and were delighted to see how blue glass centerpieces can be both vintage and glamorous. I don't know about everyone else, but I'm ready for Springtime! I can practically smell the fresh grass and juicy fruit of the upcoming summer months - I don't know if I have cabin fever from all this rain or what, but I'm ready for a new season!!

Using varying glass bottles as a table centerpiece or table marker is a great conversation starter and the blue glass will photograph beautifully. The bottles you’ve collected will show the love you put into....click here to read the rest of the post!

Tahoe Unveiled's Weekly Juice!

Lake Tahoe Wedding Planning Advice | Gift Bags

When planning a destination wedding it is really important to make sure your guests know where to go and what to do when they arrive. As Lake Tahoe wedding planners, we are very accustomed to guiding our client's guests around this beautiful destination. The best way to do so is with a pretty little gift bag! During the week prior to our client's weddings, our studio is often full of treats, welcome letters, champagne bottles, and totes for the guests. After assembling each bag, we deliver them to the appropriate hotels and vacation rentals. When the guests arrive, they are greeted with a welcome letter from the couple, an itinerary of the wedding festivities, and a few treats to make their stay more enjoyable! This past weekend, we had a winter wedding in Truckee and created the welcome bags pictured below! They were complete with a hand sewn tote by the mother of the groom, trail mix, a mini champagne bottle, and hot chocolate to keep everyone warm!

~Things to include in a welcome bag~

Welcome Letter Thank your guests for traveling to your wedding and greet them with a little note from you and your future hubby! If you are providing transportation to the wedding, include shuttle times to and from their hotel or vacation rental.

Activities Card This essential little card should provide all the crucial information for making the most of the wedding weekend. Include all of your favorite restaurants and activities to do while in town. You could also include places to go for a little pampering or a last minute mani-pedi!

Treats Who doesn't love champagne and chocolate?! Or H2O and sunscreen to help with Tahoe's intense summer sun? Give your guests the essentials for making sure they have the best time possible; they'll love you for it and you'll know you've provided everything they need to make it the best wedding they've ever been to - win-win! A few treat ideas include: cookies from a local bakery, cheese and crackers, or even a momento from a local well known shop (tahoe house has some yummy marinades and salad dressings)! Since most of your guests will not be used to the elevation, we highly recommend adding a water bottle or even a re-usable water bottle with your motif on it!

Behind the Scenes with One Fine Day Events | The Design Process

This week we're finalizing a few design details for our upcoming wedding at the end of this month. Our couple wants a snow filled winter wonderland and hopefully mother nature will cooperate! Here's an example of one of their inspiration boards that reflects the decor and style of their wedding day!

We're working on creating an intimate atmosphere with lots of natural elements including moss, birch, candlelight and a soft color palate. We can't wait to see this all come together, hopefully against a backdrop of winter snow to complete the look!
