Carly from Rhoads to Memories was our videographer for our wedding in June 2023. I met her the previous year when searching for a videographer and we instantly hit it off and felt like friends right away! We spoke regularly and when she found out she was having a baby and her due date was only a few weeks after our wedding I still knew I wanted to stick with her as our videographer. I am so glad it all worked out and she gave birth only 3 days after our wedding. Personally, finding someone who is easy to talk to is one of the most important things when choosing vendors and that is exactly how Carly is! She is real, down to Earth, supportive, and very responsive to messages. Carly even helped sew my husband's suit pants right before our wedding when he had a hole in the seam! Our wedding video turned out amazing and we are so happy to have the memories she captured on film for years to come. Definitely recommend!

Salon De’Bleu

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $95
  • Serves Ionia, IA

A professional salon owner & stylist for 11 years, I have used hair as my canvas, bringing a distinctive aesthetic & fresh approach to draw out each client’s unique beauty. Hair is my art & I love the process of transforming someone from start to finish.I understood from an early age that hair is not just an accessory; that great hair is the key to feeling beautiful. Mastering skills in wedding styling, It’s my personal goal to continue to grow & excel in my craft and to ultimately share with my clients all I've learned & can achieve for them. I love hair & feel incredibly blessed that I’ve found a career that resonates with me so perfectly.

I have known Brittany for a long, long time and was thrilled to have her style my hair for my wedding. She is super professional, creative, and experienced. She will work with your vision to come up with a unique style that complements you and your wedding vibe in the best ways. My absolute favorite part was not having to worry AT ALL about how my hair would turn out. During the trial, she will make sure you absolutely love you hair before sending you home. It was such a relief to leave knowing what to expect on the wedding day and that we were both prepared. There are plenty of other things to be stressed about leading up to your wedding but Brit has you covered in the hair department. I recommend her 10/10!

Sarcasm & Sunshine Designs Flower Preservation 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Ionia, IA

Sarcasm & Sunshine Designs is comprised of two friends, turned business partners. We worked together for several years planning events and weddings, so we have a shared love of sparkle, flowers, coffee, and making beautiful memories! We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate our growth as friends, mothers and confidants, than to combine our creativity and passions to create one of a kind items to brighten the days and lives of others. Our business, our products, and our partnership is all about balance, Contessa is the Sarcasm, Danielle is the Sunshine. Some days, we switch roles, but we think life is better with both!

Having my wedding flowers preserved was extremely important to me. To be able to keep something perfectly preserved that was so beautiful on my special day is unreal. Danielle is the kindest and easiest person to work with. She gets back to you within seconds and listens to any and every crazy request I had. Along with a tray, wine stopper, ornament, and book mark, Danielle was able to take part of my Mother’s wedding dress (that was wrapped around my bouquet) and preserve it in a jewelry box with my flowers. Let me tell you, the reaction my mom had on her face when I gave her that jewelry box was indescribable. If you are ever second guessing preserving your wedding flowers, this is your sign to do it. You won’t regret it! Sarcasm and Sunshine’s work is impeccable and I hope that others are able to have their flowers preserved with such care and precision as I was able to have mine.

  • Serves Ionia, IA

I am a fine art wedding photographer and wedding planner, wife, and mother to our three sweet babies! I first fell in love with photography at an early age. I became very inspired watching my father photograph weddings and capturing the authentic joy on his clients best day. It was then that I fell in love with the concept of love and knew what I wanted to do. I went on to film photography in high school and digital photography in college. After college I started a job as a party coordinator. I did this for years. Then, on blind faith started my own journey into the world of photography and wedding planning!

Jack Wylde (they/them) (name in progress) I am an Inclusive Wedding Photographer blends fine art with authentic storytelling, creating images that feel timeless and deeply personal. Inspired by the richness of romantic paintings, I capture love with moody tones, candid moments, and creative angles. From elopements at sunrise to backyard celebrations under the stars, I celebrate all types of unions—LGBTQIA+, non-traditional, eco-friendly, and more. Whether it’s a courthouse ceremony or a handfasting in the woods, I focus on the details and emotions that make your day truly yours. Let’s turn your love story into art.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our elopement photos by From GA with Love are absolutely magical. They didn’t just capture the obvious moments but found the heart in every little detail of our day. One of our favorite shots is of the winding dirt road we drove down at sunrise, with the mist clinging to the trees—it feels like the start of our own fairy tale. Another incredible image is of us exchanging our vows on a quiet riverbank, with a heron landing in the background as if nature itself was blessing our ceremony. Even the candid photo of us laughing together while struggling to light our unity candle in the breeze is now one of our most cherished memories. Their ability to honor the intimacy and uniqueness of our day made our gallery feel deeply personal and full of love. The best part was the inclusion of our kid, who got to feel like a part of the day. If you want a photographer who can make your story feel as epic and authentic as it deserves, they are the one.
