Officiated by Ronald Anthony Cotta at Tahoe cruises / Spirit of Tahoe/ safari rose in South Lake Tahoe, California on June 13th, 2026.
ABOUT THIS WEDDING
"This was one of the greatest moments in my life, coming from a background of being a disc jockey for twenty five years to standing in front of a select company of friends and family and being terrified. It was like I did my first dj show on steroids. It was such a great honor to join my youngest niece and her very attentive fiancée in marriage. It’s an experience I will never forget. The ceremony started with the bride walking out to the dock area and revealing herself to the groom looking across the lake. Then they boarded their yacht with all their guests and proceeded across the lake to Emerald Bay where the captain floated and the ceremony began. The father of the bride walked her to the stern of the yacht where she was met by her groom. We greeted all their guests and started the ceremony. It was a great day on the lake and a beautiful and memorable day for the bride and groom. Blessings to all who attended."
