I kicked off my 2011 wedding season on Saturday with Paul and Andrea’s gorgeous wedding. That morning, when I woke up to snow, I said, “You’ve got to be kidding me.” The weather didn’t put a damper on the day though. Paul and Andrea were so happy and so in love, a blizzard wouldn’t have ruined it. The amazing Stephanie Neprud Photography second shot with me (the only wedding this year!).
Details:
- Ceremony: Good Sheppard Lutheran church, La Crosse, WI
- Reception: The La Crosse Center, South Hall
- Dresses and Tuxes: Mestad’s in Rochester, MN
- Flowers: Sunshine Floral, La Crosse, WI
- Coordinator: Weddings By Nancy, La Crosse, WI
- Entertainment: Deuces Wild! Dueling Pianos, Minneapolis, MN
- Mini cheesecakes: Muddy Paws in Minneapolis, MN
- Groom’s cake: Linda’s Bakery in West Salem, WI
- Candy bar: Emily Welhaven
The whole day was filled with special touches from getting ready at Andrea’s parents house, to wine made by Andrea and Paul, wine glasses painted by Andrea….the list could go on and on.
Andrea’s mom made this quilt for her.
During the ceremony, they kept whispering to each other. It was so cute.
Weddings by Nancy always does an amazing job with the reception.
Andrea is dentist and she, of course, included toothpaste and toothbrushes on their candy bar. 🙂
Instead of a DJ, they had Deuces Wild! dueling pianos and it was so much FUN! For about an hour, they performed a show and then brought in a drummer and started their dance. It was by far the most fun entertainment I’ve ever seen at a wedding.
Andrea and Paul, thank you so much for letting me be a part of your day. I wish you the best!

Thank you so much Judy for sharing these beautiful photos of Paul and Andrea. The love shines in both their eyes, the pictures are a beautiful and fulfilling capture of their love.
All of these photos are amazing. My favorites: Andrea and Paul standing in the snow, Andrea and Ashley holding hands, the entire church scene, the guys doing the YMCA, and of course my little granddogs, Coco and Rosco. So nice to work with Tiffany and Stephanie. Thank you.
Spectacular wedding and pics! I came across your blog looking for La Crosse photogs, since my family and I will be visiting there this summer. So glad I found you because I love your work. You’ve been bookmarked. 😀
These photos of Andrea and Paul are breathtaking. Every photo captures the true beauty of the radiant bride and handsome groom. What an elegant wedding..just like out of a fairy tale!
Tiffany, you did a fantastic job of capturing special angles & unique situations of Andrea & Paul’s wedding. I love the dogs being included & the toothbrushes. How special to have the dueling pianos for entertainment. It must have been a very special day!
I REALLY ENJOYED THESE PICTURES…what a wonderful wedding. I wish them happiness forever!
We loved working with this couple! The wedding turned out better than we could have hoped —filled with love, emotion, class, personal details and so much more. What a fabulous way to begin your life together. If you have ever been to South Hall, you would not have recognized it! Thanks to TIffany for once again capturing such amazing photos. Thanks also to all of the business for their attention to detail. Everything was lovely!
Tiffany these are GORGEOUS!
