Our Wedding

Emily and Christina are different people. One loves adventure, the other a quiet night in. She has lived in four countries; her one. Two stories collided on the dating app Bumble when Christina started vetting a new match name Emily. Within one week Christina thought Emily was a Russian bot and Emily thought Christina was going to jail. Their relationship started with Christina noting she was going to be gone for three months, “so……rain check?”This intrigued Emily, she declined the offer. They talked every day and met in person on Thanksgiving day. It wasn't a year of thanks but they were thankful for their relationship. The following Thanksgiving they moved to Sacramento, California with their pandemic puppy, Boots, Emily's many, many, many boxes of books and Christina's challenge coin collection. Christina knew she was going to marry Emily when Christina locked herself out of her car and Emily figured out how to (ethically) break in. Emily knew she was going to marry Christina when Christina drank Macallan neat in fox footie pajama's. Throughout their relationship Lake Tahoe has been a sacred space. It's within these mountains they grew an appreciation for communities and coffee shops, golfing, and taking german short haired pointers (and an 8% german shepherd) for drives around down. On September 19th, they are blessed to bring their friends and family together to their sacred place to pronounce their story before Dog, and God.

Alex has a fierce soul and knows how to make the world a better place. Literally. We’ll forgive her Jimboy’s taco’s fascination

Sam is our resident metal hobbit mastermind. Need an excellent snack recommendation? Sam. Need a good book recommendation? Sam. Need someone to go on a random adventure as long as that adventure ends in a snack and a good book? You guessed, it! Sam

Maddie is the mistress of all trades. As our resident k-pop demon hunter, we love Maddie’s ability to kick you-know-what any time of the day

Q + A

Travel

There are two golf courses in Incline Village, locally known as the mountain course and the champion course. Mountain is an executive course, meaning it is shorter. Championship is more rigorous. For our non golfer partners, the championship course grille has great drinks and great views.

Coffee is a must in Christina and Emily’s World! We love drink coffee do stuff, a local coffee chain. House made syrups, house made beans! Try to get there before 8:30am as the line can get very long.

Raley’s is the local grocery store and a great stop for ready made meals and delightful bites. The left hand side of raley’s is the ready-made meals, right hand side is starbucks and groceries.

We love alibi! It’s a great local family friendly gastro pub. Try the mustache pretzel or the fish tacos or literally any beer.
