Tying the Knot in the Great Outdoors

No florist required – campground
weddings offer beautiful natural surroundings and more.

If you’re looking to host a memorable
wedding in a unique location with gorgeous backdrops, maybe you should
consider a campground for the big day!

The
serene natural setting of a campground provides a relaxing atmosphere for the
whole group, where they can soak up the peacefulness of the great
outdoors.

Many campgrounds have club houses, open-air
pavilions, and acres of manicured grass perfect for ceremonies and
receptions. Plus, many also offer spas for the bridal party to
indulge and relax before the ceremony, and a choice of convenient accommodations
like yurts and park
models so the bridal party can get ready in
style.
