Focused on fun, music and food, Cari and Mark orchestrated a destination wedding weekend set among the simple beauty of Park City’s changing season.
Austin residents Cari and Mark met at a going-away party for a mutual friend. The two had been dating four years when Mark proposed to Cari while boating on Austin’s Lake Travis. While Cari swam with their dogs, Mark set up a surprise on deck: Cari’s favorite charcuterie, cheeses, floewrs and a bottle of old vine Zinfandel from a recent Napa trip. “I remember climbing up the boat ladder and it smelling so good,” Cari says. “It didn’t register right away, but he dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.”
“My brother moved to Utah several years ago, so my parents, Mark and I met in Park City each winter to ski,” Cari says. “We love everything about Park City, and Deer Valley Resort had everything we needed including cozy, cabin-like accommodations, amazing views, beautiful trails and spectacular food.”
