A few months ago I set out to write a story about Hippie Hill’s 4/20 party, thinking it was the original 4/20 fest. Oh man, I was so wrong.

Tahoe is a very expensive place to get married, with a six-digit-budget barrier to entry. This hotel is one of the most exclusive venues in Tahoe. And it just canceled a slate of weddings, sending couples into a tailspin.
