Awarded Best of Zola
Would HIGHLY recommend PrayzHim Entertainment. Professional, prepared, detail-oriented, genuine, and hilarious are just a few words I would use to describe Andrew Spence and his team. Andrew flawlessly set up for an outdoor venue he had never been too, and everyone could hear our ceremony even with some sprinkles of rain and 15 mph winds! He worked together with our videographer to capture the audio for our video at both the ceremony and reception locations. At our reception, everyone had fun with the photo booth, dismissing of tables, and musical chairs scavenger hunt. My family normally does not dance at weddings, but he kept everyone out there the entire night. 10/10 would recommend PrayzHim Entertainment!!

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Douds, 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!

We hired Cater2U2 to cater appetizers, desserts and 525 dinner meals for our wedding reception. Communication before the event was great - quick responses and patience with our many questions! The day-of team was amazing - set up, food service, breakdown and cleanup was done efficiently in the background. Cater2U2 served warm pretzels with cheese and pasta salad cup appetizers, and then a phenomenal dinner buffet with salad, corn, roasted carrots, fruit salad, roast beef and fried chicken. The staff helped buffet lines move smoothly and our entire guest list was served very quickly. For dessert, Cater2U2 provided a variety of pies and soft serve ice cream. They also provided bartending services. We’re a month out from our reception, and are still hearing great things about the food served from our guests. We 11/10 would recommend the food, staff and service at Cater2U2!!

A 10 year veteran to the Wedding industry, Electric Entertainment stands out as a premium vendor across the midwest. Our team of professionally trained DJs are here every step of the way from planning to execution to deliver a true experience for your guests. We perform. We entertain. We execute your vision.

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!

Something Borrowed Blooms was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding flowers. They were quick and responsive and were able to help me multiple times throughout my order.

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.

Imagine your wedding filmed by the people who know you best - your friends and family.

We'll turn all your raw footage into a beautiful, nostalgic Modern Day Home Video® you'll actually love to rewatch. It's raw, real, and totally you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend PressRecord enough! From start to finish, the entire process was incredibly easy and completely stress-free. The camcorders were simple for our guests to use, and everything was clearly explained, making the whole experience foolproof. What truly impressed me was their customer service. They were unbelievably kind and responded to every email so quickly. They even re-edited our wedding film **twice** to make sure it was exactly what we envisioned, and they happily searched through all of the footage to include very specific moments that were important to us. The most meaningful thing they did was incorporate a photo I sent them of our memorial table honoring my mom and my husband's grandparents who had passed away. Including that tribute in our wedding video meant more to us than I can express, and I'm so grateful they took the time to make it happen. Our final 5-minute home video feels so personal and captures the heart of our wedding day perfectly. If you're considering PressRecord, do it—you'll not only end up with an amazing keepsake, but you'll also be working with a team that genuinely cares about preserving what matters most.

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
Truly could not say enough great things about Haverlee and her immense talent! From our first inquiry email to delivering our final wedding gallery (early I should add), she was so kind, supportive and on the ball. Outside of capturing amazing moments during our engagement session and wedding day, one of the things we really appreciated was her willingness to help create our day of timeline. As a DIY bride, having someone who has done this countless times help us plan every minute of our day helped so so much and put our minds at ease. And let me tell you, day of, you won’t find someone else more prepared than Haverlee. She was there to help with make-up issues, fly away hairs, dress bustling, and even hand picking leaves and bugs out of the skirt of my dress to make sure our photos were perfect. Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime experience, highly recommend entrusting Haverlee to work her magic to allow you to remember the day perfectly thru her lens.

  • Serves Douds, IA

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so delighted to use The Faux Bouquets for our wedding. We ended up having a family emergency that forced us to downsize the size and budget of the wedding just a few months before the wedding, and the team at TFB were so accommodating and helped us to find a solution that still allowed us to use their flowers in our (modified) ceremony. We were a bit concerned about the flowers getting smushed in shipping, but they arrived looking absolutely STUNNING and with plenty of time before the big day. Even my gardener of a grandma couldn't tell they weren't real flowers! We were so happy with how everything looked on the day, and in pictures they look just as lovely. Can't recommend The Faux Bouquets enough! There's no visual difference compared to real bouquets and they are much more affordable. The last big selling point that I would advise future brides, and I did not really consider this, is that because the flowers don't wilt, we could set the decor out the night before--which is a LIFESAVER to not have to worry about on the special day! Anything that will save you time and stress on the day of the wedding is a big win!
