DJ PrayzHim is amazing, and was absolutely perfect for our wedding! Andrew was a great communicator, was clear and upfront about everything, and was super easy and fun to work with. He did a superb job managing the flow of the reception, and kept our guests entertained and the night running smoothly. I cannot count how many times we were complimented about our DJ--everybody loved him! Andrew is a natural, funny, charismatic entertainer :) The wedding games we played were very enjoyable, for my bride and I as well as our guests. It was also comforting not having to worry about crude language in the songs or awkward questions during the Shoe Game--Andrew keeps everything family-friendly! Overall, we would highly recommend DJ PrayzHim for your next event, and especially for weddings!!!

Foxtail Films 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Barnes City, IA

A unique photography and videography duo that just want to capture your best day ever. Based out of Iowa, Foxtail Films isn't afraid to travel! We have experience from California to Florida and just about everything in between.

From the moment my husband and I got engaged, we knew we wanted to work with Val and Kevin. At the time, we were living in Arizona, so I called Val to ask if she’d be willing to travel there to capture our engagement photos. Without hesitation, she said yes—and she made it happen! Leading up to our wedding day, Val was incredibly easy to communicate with. She even reached out to our DJ to coordinate timelines, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders. On the wedding day, Val and Kevin made everything run smoothly and efficiently, ensuring we got the perfect photos and video. We couldn’t be happier with how all of our engagement and wedding photos turned out. Our wedding video completely blew us away—it beautifully captured every moment from the start of the day through the reception. Being able to relive our day whenever we want brings back so many emotions and truly makes us feel like we’re there all over again. I’ve cried happy tears every time I’ve watched it. We can’t thank Val and Kevin enough for their amazing work in capturing our most special moments. We will cherish their work forever. We would highly recommend booking them for your big day too!

“Doug Ewing Photo specializes in capturing authentic, timeless wedding moments across Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri. With a creative eye and a passion for storytelling, I focus on making every couple’s big day unforgettable through stunning, heartfelt imagery. Let’s create something beautiful together!”

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer than Doug to capture our wedding day. From start to finish, Doug was a pleasure to work with—his laid-back approach made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, and his sense of humor kept things light and fun throughout the day. He let us be ourselves, which we felt comfortable to do so, which resulted in photos that feel genuine and natural, especially with our large family. Doug's work is absolutely wonderful, and we felt zero stress when it came to photos because we trusted him completely. His attention to detail and ease with his craft put us at ease, and the final images exceeded what we hoped for. We'd recommend Doug to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares about capturing the heart of their day.

Megan and Logan were great to work with in the early stages, and then Ali & Drake took over about a month before! They all were fantastic to work with and I could definitely tell that Ali & Drake were the best match for my wedding. I wasn't sure what to think about booking a company that matches a DJ to your wedding after booking, but they really did take the time to find what music style I liked and which DJ was going to vibe the best. Highly recommend!!!! The entire planning process was so easy with them and the online portal was so simple to use! They truly made my day exceptional!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (93 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Barnes City, IA

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.

I had done thorough research on purchasing real flowers and while price was our driving factor, I loved the element of saving on waste with renting and the option to purchase a keepsake! Brittany spent time talking to me so many times about questions I had and was incredibly patient! With the custom bouquet, I was able to upload inspiration photos and she NAILED it! The shipping process was so seamless as well. Brittany provided the tracking numbers and thorough instructions on receiving and then returning the flowers. I pride myself on getting ALL the flowers returned in record time (Brittany said) ;) All of our guests couldn’t believe the flowers were fake and everyone was raving about them!
