Adam + Courtney’s Surprise Proposal at Lambeau Field, Green Bay

Feb 7

When Adam reached out to me to photograph his proposal to his then-girlfriend, Courtney, at Lambeau Field, he had thought of every detail. He was going to tell her they had been invited to Lambeau as part of the Ultimate Fan Experience the stadium was offering. Adam and his family have been going to the Packers’ Training Camp for the past 35 years, so it wouldn’t surprise Courtney that they were invited to tour the stadium.

Adam was able to set up a private tour that took them down to the field, where he planned to drop down on one knee. I was in on the rouse, posed as a photographer from the stadium, to document their experience. As Adam and Courtney walked through the Packers’ tunnel and into the bowl of the stadium, they looked around in awe. They stood together for a photo, and Adam revealed to Courtney that he had fibbed a little bit when he told her that they were going to Lambeau for just a stadium tour.

While Adam professed his love for Courtney and she looked at him with excited nervousness, Adam got down on one knee, pulled out a ring box, and asked Courtney to be part of his family. As happy tears rolled down her face, she nodded and said, “Yes!” They hugged fiercely and sealed their proposal with a kiss. Courtney stood in disbelief, even as they strolled happily hand-in-hand through Lambeau’s underbelly and into the atrium.

The lights of the Titletown District twinkled in the twilight, and Adam and Courtney couldn’t take their eyes off of each other. Adam revealed all of the planning that had gone into his proposal, and Courtney admired how her new ring sparkled in the light. They laughed and snuggled each other close, their hearts full of love. They’re currently planning a beautiful winter wedding, and I wish them all the happiness in the world.

Much love and appreciation,
