Thank you so much for sharing your special day with us and being willing to get up this early to get married. Thank you to The Tea Room: it was the perfect setting. It’s truly one-of-a-kind in Des Moines, and it’s breathtaking as soon as you walk in. Thank you to Lori and her awesome staff for making us feel right at home and being such an integral part of the wedding!
Thank you to Destination Grille: to Jonnann and her fantastic team. The prime rib, ham balls, cheesy potatoes, and everything else was delicious! Your crew couldn’t have been warmer and more helpful, and we greatly appreciate it! We overheard so many compliments on the food from our guests.
To Tom and everyone at Boesen the Florist: Thank you, thank you, thank you! The brides’ bouquets and toss bouquets were jaw-dropping; they looked beautiful in person and in photos.
Sue and her Complete Weddings & Events crew crushed it. Their team of 5-6 were everywhere, capturing everything! Their attention to detail and getting the shots they needed was impeccable.
Thank you to our good friend Andrew Fuller for making a perfect Leap Day frog cake. It was delicious, and it was a centerpiece of conversation.
Thank you to the Bridal Connection for making our brides feel extra special at the wedding. We appreciate everything, and we know our brides did too!
How cute was our flower girl, Eden? She did awesome… and yes, we made her walk down the aisle all 8 times! GREAT JOB EDEN!
