THE DESTINATION
Tegernsee
pronounced: tay-gan-zay
[ˈteːɡɐnˌzeː]
Nestled in the Bavarian Alps, Tegernsee is where mountains meet lake and time seems to slow. Tatiana’s family has spent generations here, marking milestones, gathering by the lake, and even saying their vows along its shores. From the start we knew there was no better place to begin our life together ❤︎
