We had been scouting for a venue in the North Shore that would accomodate us using our own caterer; loking for a place that we could hold both our ceremony and reception. We had be...en looking for a few days while we were in Tahoe, but none of the venues we came accross would accomodate our special request. When we got back home to the Bay Area, we searched online and found the North Tahoe Event Center. We called them and confirmed they were willing to work with our caterer for an additional fee (per head). We quickly made another trip to Lake Tahoe to take a look at this location in person. We instantly fell in love with the location and the Lake View Room that we decided to use for our reception of 100 guests. Over the next year, we communicated to the staff at the Event Center by phone and email. Not all of our questions or concerns were answered...and we were given partial answers to some of our questions; and the information changed in some cases. We were unclear when our rental company would have access to the venue on the day of, until a few days prior to the wedding. We were under the impression that we would have to clear all the rentals from the venue the night of the wedding (which we had rented until 1:00am and had an hour after that to clean everything up), but the rental company actually was able to pick everything up the next day, thankfully this was all coordinated by our rental company. We had scheduled a time to meet our day-of-coordinator at the venue on a Sunday, which we made sure would be available by our point of contact at the venue; but the day before we were to meet our coordinator, we just so happened to decide to drop by and take a look at a causal reception being held there, and met one of the staff who indicated that the venue was not scheduled to be accessable the following day until hours after our scheduled meeting with our coordinator. He kindly rearranged his personal schedule to give us access to the building that Sunday. Another incident happened the day before and the day of the wedding which involved linens that the venue was to provide for the rectangular tables. The gentleman we had previously met had told us that there was only one white rectangular linen left for our event due to the events that were taking place the day prior. The next day,which was the day of, we met another staff member who told us that she is the one in charge of the linens and since they had such large events the day before, there was no way they could accomodate our wedding with all the linens we needed but she would get it all worked out with our coordinator. I still, to this day, have no idea how the white rectangular linens magically appearted when I arrived shortly before the ceremony. All the problems aside, the wedding turned out amazing. There was some added stress, but the venue made for a gorgeous location.
