You have an opportunity to plan a date in one of the most BEAUTIFUL places on the entire planet. Eeek! Tahoe National Park is stunning and if it's your first time here? WELCOME. 👏🏻
First of all, WINNER.
Second... trust me when I say that it is so easy to plan the simplest dates that are AMAZING because doing anything in Tahoe National Park is amazing.
As an elopement photographer in California, you can trust me when I say that all the plans simple or complex are all WORTH IT.
Buuut... to help get you started, here is a breakdown for the planning PERFECT date at Lake Tahoe.
Step One: Go on a Picnic.
There are reasons why everyone is obsessed with Tahoe, CA. It is GORGEOUS. There are so many views. So why would you sit inside a restaurant or your Airbnb where you can’t even see it?! Just imagine it… you, your super cute boo, & some yummy food all while staring off at a stunning view (Bonus points if you catch the sunset! 😍)
There is something ✨magical✨ about the simplicity of snacks and some scenery that create the perfect vibe for some good bonding time with the person you love most.
BONUS TIP: You can skip the efforts of packing your picnic and just hire LuxeTahoe to do it! Her charcuterie boards are to DIE for. (And they are SO pretty too! I mean 🤤 ...just see for yourself!) Also, why not support the local business and truly relax at the same time? Book a luxury picnic in Tahoe here!
Step Two: Plan an Activity!
OMG. You can’t just LOOK at the views.. you gotta participate in them!💃🏼 After you’ve caught the breath that those views just took-jump into them. There are so many ways you could enjoy the area...
You could Canoe. 🛶
…Specifically, there are so many places that rent out all types of boats! You could kayak, canoe, paddle board... paddle BOAT. It’s all right there on the shore, making it super easy for you to just show up and enjoy.
You could swim! 🏊🏼
If you want something more budget friendly.. just swim! The water is clear and beautiful and refreshing. Grab your partner and just go PLAY together. 🙃 You’ll be laughing and connecting in ways you didn’t even know you needed.
Step Three: End the night with a romantic twist.
You could go swimming… AT NIGHT 🌙.
Every good date needs that romantic ending.. 🌹🌹🌹🌹 That gooshy moment where you are laughing and bonding and feeling connected… only to see those sparks fly... Finish out that date out with an epic finale. 🎇 Just until the sun goes down and jump in that water! It is a totally fun way to just laugh together!
Or you could dance in your headlights 🚘
If you’d rather keep things simple, turn up the speakers in your car and dance in your headlights! TALK ABOUT ROMANTIC. Laughing when you trip, slow dancing.. it’s creative and different and perfect for adding that extra zing✨ to your night.
Step Four: Hire a photographer to third wheel it and document the whole thing! 📸
You know I can’t end without including this! Have you been seeing all the photos in this blog? I took them and documented a date between those two cuties! It was a total blast to watch them laugh and play and connect on a Tuesday night in the ways that they needed most. What better way to be reminded that you are a GREAT match than to see it on paper around your home for weeks and months to come?
Don’t underestimate the value of documenting the sweet moments in all the amazing places you go together. Trust me. It’s worth it. ❤️
