Situated on or near the scenic shores of South Lake Tahoe, our most affordably priced venues are suggested in the various options below. While some of the listed venues are public settings, any of our prearranged wedding packages may be applied to a private location of your choice, though additional site fees may be applicable. Two private venues frequently selected by brides and grooms include Regan Beach and The Arch at Lakeside Beach.

With the exception of vow renewals, all package options require either a California or Nevada marriage license. The required license is dependent upon your choice of venue and can be purchased at any county clerk’s office located within the appropriate state.
