  • Offers 6 services

  • Serves Altoona, IA

Our mission is to help you celebrate your love in a way only you could do without the stress or overwhelm. Mostly Becky Event Group was founded by Becky Thomas on the North Shore of Lake Superior in Minnesota. She found a passion for coming along side couples and families to ensure they could soak in such a memorable day. As Mostly Becky has grown, she extensively trains her team to be aware of the power we have to make others feel their best. Through the planning process and day of your event, Mostly Becky wants you to be and feel your best, so you can relish each moment and not be worried about the details. We are here to take care of you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I hired Mostly Becky to do planning and design for our wedding in Des Moines, Iowa. We both had recently moved to Des Moines from Chicago, so we had about 200 guests coming from out of town and wanted to ensure that we had a magical wedding for them to attend. Mostly Becky delivered. Mostly Becky's professional team met with us at every step in the process. My wife had a strong vision of what she wanted the wedding to be like, the vibes, and many of the specifics. They were able to make our dreams a reality. I cannot imagine a more professional, competent, and reassuring group to make the stress of wedding planning go as smoothly as possible. If you are looking to hire a wedding planner in Des Moines (or anywhere else that Mostly Becky operates), lock them down early.

I chose Violet Lane for my wedding day because Megan was willing and able to hear what I needed and fit within my budget and preferences. She nailed it by creating a beautiful bouquet that fit my budget, perfectly matched my color scheme and vibe, and was willing to order some bulk flowers for me to DIY my decor. I will recommend Violet Lane to anyone.
