The wedding day kicked off as most do “with momentum” The excitement was high and the thoughtful gestures through each experience were executed with precision. Sarah & Ryland are visionaries & it took a qualified team to plan & execute their details. We were honored to work closely with these two for 9 months to plan the full scope of their guest experiences & overall design. We chose a team of vendors very carefully to make sure we exceeded their expectations.

The ceremony was by far the simplest yet most powerful moment of the day. It took place on the Lake Shore of Sugar Pine Point State Park in Tahoma California just down the street from their families mountain home. The focus for the ceremony was to “ be present” so mocktails greeted the guest as they arrived. Parched Poppies created a custom pine-infused mocktail where they served out of their newly renovated 1970’s trailer on the hillside overlooking the Lake Shore ceremony site. The day couldn’t have been nicer.

Ryland & Sarah work in the wedding industry & understood how fast the day speeds by - so they wanted to slow things down & enjoy the moment. They felt it was important to create a space where people turned inward to recognize the abundance life has to offer, the fulfillment we are meant to feel and most importantly to be grateful for all the love that surrounds them. Rylands brother a meditation speaker was the perfect fit for leading everyone through this moment. Sarah & Ryland then exchanged vows, which was a pure joyride. The guest had no choice but to surrender to laughter, and tears of happiness as Sarah & Ryland shared the deepest corners of their hearts. And just like that two people made for each other shared a toast with their family & friends to celebrate their union as husband and wife. Cheer you two!

Sarah grew up in what is now a classic Toyota pickup truck. The “Just Married sign with cans” felt nostalgic & fitting to drive away in to let the small town of 600 people in Homewood, CA know the “Zweifels just got married”.
