Pettibone Resort Wedding LaCrosse, WI

Pettibone Resort in LaCrosse, Wisconsin, is the perfect venue for an intimate, outdoor wedding ceremony on the river, with the added bonuses of an onsite campground, a camper available for rent, an indoor space for a reception or backp ceremony site, and an indoor bridal suite as well. They even offer an all inclusive package with a catered meal.

My day at Pettibone began with Adam and his groomsmen. They had rented a camper from the venue to get ready in and hangout before the ceremony. It looked pretty slick, too. Of course there was a TV inside, which was perfect for them as they wanted to watch the football game and relax while the girls got ready.

Once everyone was ready to go, the girls hungout in the suite and the guys chilled out in the camper while Adam and Erica did a first look. All around the venue was gorgeous, but they chose to meet up by the tall grass on the riverside. Adam was stunned by his soon to be wife's beauty.

They then read private vows, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't tear up at their romantic and emotional words as they connected for the first time that day.

Then, some portraits all together.

Next up was the ceremony! Erica hid inside while Adam sat his family members and patiently awaited the love of his life to come down the isle. The wedding was so peaceful with the river background and all of the beautiful flowers and grasses as decoration.

After I Do's, it was time for some quick family portraits and then to get the party started! A+E had a super cool cigar bar, custom lights, and other decor in the classic, elegant reception hall.
