Yay local news paper engagement announcements!

Rain on your wedding day? Was happy to have it at Silver Lake!

September in the Sierras is on the fence of sunny skies and rainy days. This wedding of two of my closest friends was a unforgetable day including the thunderstorms and a double rainbows!

The original wedding day plan was to have a very romantic ceremony on the lakes beach near the Kit Carson Lodge where the reception was being set up and the final touches were going in place. It was a blessing that our close friend is part of the Plasses resort original family and gave us permission to find cover and have a just as fantastic of a ceremony at the Plasse’s Resort Chapel.

Just before the delicious dinner was served, the couple spotted a double rainbow over the lake. The grooms family hails from Kauai and says that the rainbow meant happiness and luck for the newly married couple. Toasts, Hugs, Cake, and Dancing followed!

The brides two best gals made her cake in the Lodges kitchen that AM. Kimberly Merrill from KMBeautification came out to take care of the bride and bridal parties hair and make up. Floral and decor was done by your’s truly. The day was captured by Jessie and Nate Giles. The rest of the wedding day inspiration and fulfillment was completed by the friends and family of the Bride and Groom!
