Seven Springs Wedding

Angela and Alan’s Seven Springs wedding. In other words, a perfect day in the mountains for a beautiful wedding of two wonderful people 🙂

A happy young married couple embraces near Lake Tahoe at Seven Springs after their outdoor wedding ceremony. Wispy clouds and blue skies provide the backdrop.

Getting Ready

Angela folds her hands as she has her makeup done at a mountain villa. The flower girls were the picture of loveliness with their flower crowns.

Meanwhile, outside of a nearby villa Angela’s brothers toss a football around (Lisa’s photo).

Things were a lot lower key at the girl’s place.

Alan and his dad share a laugh as Alan puts on his tie (Lisa’s photo).

A young groom faces his father and smiles while putting on a pink tie before his wedding.

A couple of detail photos: The ladies all picked their own dresses in a palette that complimented Angela’s dress. The guys had their own thing going.

Angela and Alan wrote letters to each other. The similarity of their reactions really struck me (Lisa’s photo at left).

Signing the Ketubah

While Angela chats with her super cute flower girls.

A bride lays on a bed between two little flower girls as they smile and talk.

After Alan cleared out it was Angela’s turn to sign the ketubah. They didn’t want to see each other before the ceremony.

An Interfaith Ceremony

The bridesmaids lined up for the procession.

Alan was escorted down the aisle by his mom and dad (Lisa’s photo).

A groom holds hands with his mother and father as he walks down the aisle in a forest grove.

Alan’s reaction to seeing Angela was priceless. This is why they waited until the ceremony to see each other.

A groom is overcome with emotion as he sees his bride walking towards him.

Angela and her parents make their way down the aisle.

A bride smiles as she walks down the aisle in a forest grove while holding hands with her parents.

Beneath the chuppah on the stage at Meadowoods. The couple had a rabbi and a reverend perform an interfaith ceremony.

Parents of the couple surround them as they all stand beneath a chuppah set up in a forest grove for an outdoor wedding ceremony.

It’s tough to beat Meadowoods as a venue for a Seven Springs wedding.

The look on Angela’s face pretty much tells you what’s going to happen after they cut the cake 🙂

It’s an iffy proposition when someone from the wedding party wants to sing with the band, but Angela was so good that she could have stayed up there for the rest of their set! She sang a song that was special to her grandmother and late grandfather. Alan danced with Angela’s grandmother while she sang.
