“Flower and oak were absolutely amazing. They showed up extremely early for our event and we had the highest premium package ordered for the day. We had a couple specific shoot ideas for THE GROOMSMEN and the minute I walked in the front door. I was greeted by both videographers With all kinds of cool camera gear and they told us exactly what to do and there was no time wasted. I highly recommend flower and oak to anyone looking at getting married soon. The one thing I don’t regret about our wedding day is using them because they were so great.

“Donauschwaben's German-American Cultural Center was the perfect venue for our daughter & son-in-law’s wedding. The location to the airport, highway and hotel were ideal. Their property provided plenty of parking. The wedding was outside on a 92 day and was flawless. It was hot, but the trees were in the perfect position to shade the entire patio. The entire staff was amazing. The reception space was transformed into a beautiful space for our special celebration. Our family and friends shared with us how delicious the appetizers, meal and “aftertizers” of the homemade pretzels. Christine the Event Manager went above and beyond and made sure the day was special for everyone. She answered all of my questions, even up to the last minute. We were so impressed with how many times Christine checked in with us to make sure we were happy. We highly recommend Donauschwaben’s German-American Cultural Center.”

He checked in with me and my family/bridal party throughout the evening and made last minute adjustments as needed. He was professional and made sure we had all the moments and songs that we wanted. I have been to weddings with DJs who were not as skilled and it makes a big difference in the flow and energy of the evening.

“Rising Ashes is the perfect photographer for your big day! When the pandemic hit just month before our big day they were so flexible and helpful with rescheduling. The day of they made every picture count and played a HUGE part in helping the day run smoothly. If you're questioning videography, do it! The wedding video they made for us will forever by my favorite memory to look back at. Everyone we've met through this company is so kind and great at their job! We've used them for Christmas photos, pregnancy announcement, boudoir, engagement, and they have even photographed my best friends wedding. Pick Rising Ashes! You won't regret it!”

“We can’t say enough nice things about this place! Most importantly to us was the excellent communication at every step of the planning process. The space is warm, somewhat (but not overly) fancy, reasonably priced, and welcoming to any size party. Lake Affect gave us a vibe so special it made my dad cry, but never feeling “formal” - aka stuffy. Our only warning to other couples is to plan for extra lighting in the ceremony space. We were VERY impressed with Stefanie’s problem solving ability when vendor issues came up on the day of the rehearsal. LGBTQ friendly as well!”
