Smoky Summer Wedding at Nakoma Resort

Brandon and Caitlin have a special connection to the Lake Tahoe area. They both spent time there as kids and have made incredible memories together at the lake. In fact, their first trip as a couple was to Tahoe, where Caitlin had the chance to meet Brandon's family.

Over the years, Brandon and Caitlin have shared many unforgettable moments in the Sierra mountains. They have gone skiing and hiking together, creating epic memories that will last a lifetime. So when it came time to decide on a wedding venue, they knew they wanted something special.

That's when they discovered Nakoma Resort. This stunning venue offers everything they could dream of for their special day. With magnificent mountain backdrops and beautiful architecture, Nakoma Resort provides a sophisticated yet modern setting for their wedding.

One of the things that appealed to Brandon and Caitlin about Nakoma Resort was its proximity to both Truckee-Tahoe and Reno. It's less than an hour's drive from both places, making it convenient for their guests to attend the wedding.

But it wasn't just the location that won them over. Brandon and Caitlin wanted a small and intimate wedding, and Nakoma Resort was the perfect fit. They were able to have their best friend officiate the ceremony, adding a personal touch to the day. And with the ability for everyone to stay together on site for the weekend, the celebration felt even more special.

As a photographer, it's an honor to be a part of such a beautiful Lake Tahoe wedding at Nakoma Resort. I am thrilled to capture the love and joy that Brandon and Caitlin share on their special day. The breathtaking scenery and stunning architecture provide the perfect backdrop for their wedding photos. I can't wait to witness and document their love story as it unfolds in this incredible setting.
