Mountain High Weddings

Mountain High Weddings Celebrating the day of marriage for all couples on the CA side of Tahoe. Elopements, weddings, and ceremonies. I have lived on Tahoe's West Shore since 1988.

I also take care of your CA marriage license, and help with planning elopements. I am blessed to live in such a beautiful place that allows me to do something I love. I've had many jobs, all in the people business. I started working in a flower shop and after a few months I realized there are a lot of weddings in Tahoe. I thought to myself, What a wonderful job, celebrating marriage? I found out w

hat it took to marry people and I started in May of 1998. I was ordained by the Universal Life Church, which believes we are all one, no matter what religion, you or I may be, we all must live in this world together. As a marriage officiant I am excited to be a part of bringing people together. I believe marriage is the ultimate commitment that two people make when they share the same goals, ideas, values, and most importantly love. I also believe the wedding ceremony is one time you have to declare your feelings, promises, and dreams in front of your loved ones. I know marriage is worth celebrating. I also know that the pre-celebration can be a little stressful and that is where I realized my calling. Creating ceremonies & celebrating the day of marriage. Becoming a marriage officiant has blessed my life in so many ways. With my many years of experience I have brought hundred's of couple's together, and with that experience I have been able to accomplish keeping the ceremony stress free.

It was a busy end to July! πŸ’ And I’m starting off August with plenty of love and ceremonies at Emerald Bay, at the chapel, and all around the lake. 😍

Jen and Derek are from Florida and were planning a trip to Northern California. About a week before they left, they thought, β€œLet's just elope while we're in Tahoe!” πŸ’ ⛰️ πŸ’ž

Jen found me online, and we pulled everything together in just a few days. For her bouquet, she wanted something that looked like it had just been picked and Amanda from delivered the perfect summer bouquet. 🌻 πŸ’› πŸ’

After their elopement, they continued on "the loop" . . . San Francisco, Yosemite, Tahoe, and Napa! Cheers to a lovely honeymoon and married life, Jen & Derek! πŸ₯‚

"Christa of Mountain High Weddings did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. We had a cozy gathering in the woods, and she truly listened to us and personalized the ceremony to match our vision. She went above and beyond our expectations and made all the paperwork so easy for us. Thank you so much for our special day!"

Yuliya & Stephen met and fell in love quickly; they knew it was meant to be. They travel to Tahoe often and felt it was just the place for their ceremony. πŸ’

They also knew they wanted to be married at Emerald Bay without the crowds, so we opted for a sunrise ceremony as it's always the perfect way to start the day. πŸŒ…

Looking forward to seeing the pro photos from their morning adventure photoshoot by . πŸ“Έ

Check out Regina's review from her special day. Thank you, Regina, for such a sweet review! It was such an honor to meet you two and officiate your special day.⁠ πŸ’ž

"Working with Christa was such a smooth experience from start to finish. One of the biggest advantages of choosing Mountain High Weddings was that we didn't have to arrive in Tahoe early to obtain our marriage license. Christa handled all of the paperwork in California, making the entire process incredibly easy and stress free.⁠
⁠
Throughout the planning process, Christa was communicative, organized, and thoughtful. She was especially patient and understanding when my mom became seriously ill before the wedding and I wasn't always able to respond promptly. Her kindness and flexibility during that time meant so much to us.⁠
⁠
The ceremony she wrote was beautiful and heartfelt. She took the time to get to know us and captured the unique aspects of our relationship in a way that felt genuine and personal. It was exactly what we were hoping for.⁠
⁠
On our wedding day, everything felt effortless. Christa was warm, professional, and helped create a ceremony that was meaningful without feeling overly formal. We are so grateful she was part of our day and would absolutely recommend Mountain High Weddings to any couple planning a Lake Tahoe wedding."⁠

It's been a special Spring and start to Summer for our family! My son, Clyde, went to Senior Prom, graduated from North Lake Tahoe High School, and won the Hero Award for ⁠being a graduate who "consistently inspires others through exceptional acts of kindness, resilience, and selfless service." πŸŽ“οΈ For those who know Clyde's health story with Vascular EDS, these milestones all deserve to be celebrated -- and then some! Love you, Clyde!

Ian and Kelsey originally planned to get married deep in the Desolation Wilderness, but when a few more friends and family wanted to join them, they chose Jackson Meadows instead β€” a place they often escape to when they want to get away from the crowds.⁠
⁠
I've known Ian since before he was born, and seven years ago I had the honor of being the officiant for his mother's wedding (I am blessed). πŸ₯° This time, I got to help Ian and Kelsey celebrate their own love story, surrounded by wonderful people in a place that means so much to them.⁠
⁠
Camping weddings are so much fun β€” simple, meaningful, and centered on what matters most. ❀️ πŸ•οΈ πŸ’β
