Emiley and Mark: Morgan Creek Golf Club Wedding

Nicky Byrnes Weddings

Emiley cracked me up from the moment she contacted me. She found me on the The Knot and basically told me first thing that she wanted to hire me so I’d better be available. I’m a SUPER decisive person (I bought the first wedding dress I tried on, my husband and I bought the first house we looked at, etc) so I liked her right off the bat! Though Emiley and Mark are sooooo young compared to this old fart, they are both very mature and obviously meant to be together. Their day was perfect and beautiful in every way! We had a great time running around the golf course then dancing the night away. Congrats Emiley and Mark!!!!! Thanks …

Kelley and Mike live in Ohio but held their wedding in Truckee, CA to be closer to family. When I first spoke to Kelley, she hadn’t even chosen a venue! She told me she was thinking of choosing Martis Camp as her venue and I was able to convince her that the beauty of the mountains and the amazing service/food/facilities were worth not having a lake view. The GORGEOUS couple got married on …

Kenny and Luke: Valhalla LGBTQ Wedding

Nicky Byrnes Weddings

Kenny and Luke: loving, funny, silly, smart, caring, kind awesome people. I was more than honored and delighted to be a part of their big day at Valhalla in South Lake Tahoe. Their spirits couldn’t be dampened by near frigid weather and crazy wind as they celebrated with their friends and family. I won’t be doing much talking today because my face hurts from laughing and smiling too much. Also, take note of their EXCELLENT styling choices! If you’re both planning on wearing a suit, try to choose different colors from each other as all blacks or whites tend to get lost together in photos.  Kenny and Luke’s contrasting tones looked so so so so good together and gave them …
