About

Your wedding should be one of the greatest moments in your lives, it should be meaningful and a reflection of each of you.

A blending of two individuals each having different backgrounds, personalities, and beliefs to combine as one.

As the owner of "I Do" Tahoe Weddings, and a minister of ceremonies for many years, I have high standards and have worked hard to achieve a high level of professionalism and respect in my community and profession. I give each and every wedding and couple the utmost care, grace, and personal attention. I want you both to be able to enjoy the moment when you say "I Do."

I also bring to "I Do" Tahoe Weddings 18 years of experience in the field of Special Event Management. With my in depth attention to detail and organization you may relax and focus on what is really important to you.

I have loved living at Lake Tahoe's beautiful South Shore for over 25 years and raising my two energetic teenage sons here. It is truly a special place. Some of my couples live at Lake Tahoe but many are creating a destination wedding here. It is my intent to guide you with experience and sincerity so you will have a heartfelt and meaningful ceremony.

With a spiritual, open minded upbringing in the beautiful state of Oregon and I grew up amongst nature's churches on the rivers and the mountains, along with regular Sunday School at a non-denominational church. I studied, in-depth, world religions at the University of Portland and became an ordained non-denominational minister with degrees in Business Administration and Fine Arts.

My goal is to fulfill your requests and make certain your wedding ceremony is special. I feel honored by each and every couple I marry and blessed when you have placed your trust in my hands.

Thank you,

Sharon Rusk

Sharon is an amazing officiant! She is very personable, and set both my husband and myself at ease in the moments leading up to our ceremony.

On our wedding day, and unexpected thunderstorm kicked up right as our ceremony was set to begin. Sharon performed with great grace under the pressure of thunder, lightening, and rain. All of our guests were very complimentary of Sharon and the ceremony she created for us.

Thank you Sharon for making our wedding day so special! We highly recommend Sharon and I Do Tahoe Weddings for your special day!

Sharon was our officiant for our May 2017 wedding in Lake Tahoe. Since we had a destination wedding, we were going off a "Preferred Vendors" list from our venue. We were not disappointed!
Sharon is a kind, personable, and professional officiant. She has many ceremonies to choose from, or you can create your own. We combined a little bit of all the ceremonies she had offered. She is very responsive to all ideas.
Sharon met us a couple months before our wedding to go over ceremony details and was also available for our rehearsal the day prior to our wedding.
Hire Sharon as your officiant and you will not be disappointed!!

Sharon was wonderful to work with. I selected her base on reviews (my husband and I had a destination wedding). We communicated via email and met the day of the wedding. As part of the wedding package her sole role as to officiate the ceremony therefore, a review of just that in all I can account for. She was prompt and professional. I'd recommend her.

Sharon made the entire process easy. She was well organized, pulled permits needed and provided multiple formats for us to chose. The process of making our ceremony personalized to us was extremely easy. Her demeanor was amazing and we felt like she was truly happy to be there experiencing this with us. Highly recommend her to anyone!

I'm a local Lake Tahoe wedding professional who coordinated the service of Officiant, Sharon Rusk on 4th of July, 2013. Sharon contactec my clients prior to the wedding date and helped them to personalize their vows. They were so pleased with their wedding ceremony as was I!

Sharon officiated our August 2015 wedding at Heavenly in South Lake Tahoe, CA. We wrote our entire ceremony ourselves and she was more than willing to provide feedback and guidance when we sent over drafts.

Since we were planning from Cincinnati, OH, we were not able to meet with her in person until the week of the wedding. She was flexible in meeting us at our hotel and we were able to go over all of the details. Everything ran smoothly and the wedding ceremony was perfect!

I would recommend Sharon to anyone.

Sharon was a wonderful officiant. She is very personable, caring and very professional. She did a great job with the rehearsal and the actual ceremony. I would highly recommend Sharon Rusk as your officiant in the Tahoe area. She is wonderful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
