Lake Tahoe
Tahoe City sits where the Truckee River pours out of the lake, and it anchors the west shore's wedding country: decades-old lakefront lodges and restaurants strung south through Sunnyside, Homewood, and Tahoma, with Olympic Valley — home of the 1960 Winter Games and the peaks of Palisades Tahoe — ten minutes up the river canyon. This is the side of the lake for couples who want their weekend to feel like a summer camp with better wine: mornings on the water, an aerial tram before dinner, and a town small enough that the whole guest list keeps bumping into each other.
