But we’re here to tell you about Courtney’s love story!! Courtney recently tied the knot with her now-husband Dmitriy at Chalet View Lodge near Lake Tahoe, California where they created a lush yet rustic outdoor celebration that was full of pastel purples and earthy greens (two of the couple’s favorite colors) and tons of fun, glam touches.
So many social media personalities and stars from some of your fave reality shows were on the guest list, so scroll through VILD photography’s beautiful photos of Courtney + Dmitriy’s day to catch a glimpse of some familiar faces!

Courtney knew this strapless, structured bodice beauty was *the* dress a whole year before the wedding!
