Introducing…Mona and Arnold!

October 1st, 2008 . by karin

When we say “Destination” Weddings…we mean: Destination Weddings.  People love to come from all over the world to Lake Tahoe and have their family gather in celebration of their union together.  Mona and Arnold had families traveling in from as far away as Indonesia!  

Not only was their wedding exceptional because of the length of travel from everyone, but families with children and close friends came to Lake Tahoe from all over the country for this event.  Mona and Arnold did an awesome job (with the help of Blue Sky, Edgewood and a variety of other vendors) in choosing pink and gold linens with gorgeous centerpieces, and special lighting brought in.  Mona and Arnold then treated everyone to a duet called “Pour your Love on me.” I don’t think the guests had enough, the crowd seemed to be chanting “Encore! Encore!” 

At the end Mike Larson photography gave a presentation of the day, with a slideshow from the morning getting ready photos, all the way up to the reception.  It was a really nice way for everyone to end a fabulous day.  

Congratulations Mona and Arnold!  Safe travels to all…

Whatta “Purdy-Fox” Wedding

October 1st, 2008 . by karin

Jessika Purdy and Dustin Fox tied the knot at Edgewood on September 12th.  Both being intimately tied into the Edgewood family, it was a true celebration for all.  

The guys went and played a round of 18 while the girls stayed in their suite and got “Purdy.”  Jessika’s dress was outstanding, I think she even mentioned lifting a few more weights in the upcoming weeks in able to wear it. (teehee. Lol.)  The train was long and flowing and perfectly accompanied “Storybook” from the Princess Bride that her Uncle Dennis played as she walked down the aisle with her brother, Travis.  

Everyone had a wonderful time.  They took gorgeous sunset photos and ended up driving into the reception in a golf cart with a “Just Married” sign.  The party then really kicked off, with special toasts, great Kahlua chocolate cake, and even a dance off initiated by the groomsmen.  

The night ended with all the guests grabbing a lit votive and lining the walk way down to their limo for a very special send off.  We tried talking Jessika into hyphening her name, however, it seems that Fox will do just fine.
