I had the pleasure of traveling to Tahoe last week for Ashley and Jordan’s wedding at the Vahalla Estate just west of South Lake Tahoe. Ashley and Jordan are wonderful together. Before their ceremony, Ashley decided to meet up with Jordan on the pier that jets out over the crystal clear water. As she was getting dressed, I could feel her getting nervous dealing with the small details that came her way; and at the end of the pier, she touched Jordan’s shoulder and gave him a hug from behind. And the tension fell from her shoulders while her nervous energy was replaced with relief, excitement and love. Later, after the vows, dancing and hugs to everyone, the sun began to make its way behind the mountains. As we walked through the forest I saw a flowery field that sparkled in the orange glow. The waves could be heard from far away, the crickets and birds started up their nightly instrumental and Ashley and Jordan spent a few perfect moments alone in the beautiful place they chose to take in all they had done and the magnitude of the decision they had made.
