Hi! My name is Ashley Archer, also known as 29 Films! I love sharing and capturing these big life moments in a way that keeps them fresh in our minds. My favorite part of wedding videography is hearing about the couples' unique love story and being able to capture that love on film. I love making people smile, traveling, spending time with those I love, and watching Rom Coms :) . I moved to the Des Moines area in 2020 and have been pursuing my passion of videography ever since! ​

I am a Bridal Hair Stylist based out of West Des Moines! Styling hair is my passion along with everything that comes with being a Bridal Hairstylist. The busy mornings, laughter among friends/family, traveling to different venues- I love it all!

Awarded Best of Zola
Marissa was fantastic!! She was so easy to work with, flexible, and friendly. I have naturally wavy and frizzy hair, but she gave me a frizz free look without making my hair crunchy or stiff from product. My half up-do was super comfortable and stayed all night with no issues, even after taking my cathedral length veil out. She added a great vibe to the room getting ready and I knew from my trial that I didn’t need to worry about hair at all. Everyone else loved her work as well, she was super knowledgeable and confident in whipping up hairstyles the day of for the bridesmaids and my mom. She even worked with my maid of honor’s natural curls to touch them up and add a little style. Couldn’t recommend her more!

We could not have had a better experience than we did with Tyson and Marquee Events. After our first call with him, before we had booked, we hung up the phone and knew our search was over. We could tell we were going to be in the best hands possible for both us, and our guests. Tyson made everything easy from start to finish and helped us create the dream atmosphere that we envisioned. We want to do it all over again so we can relive the dance floor. Can't recommend him (or the CO2 cannons) enough - best entertainment in DSM, no questions asked.

Haverlee Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Johnston, IA

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With nearly a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 100 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.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with the ladies at Everlasting Events for our April 2024 wedding! Erin and Megan did a wonderful job planning our wedding. They helped us decided when, where, and how to set things up with professionalism and constant communication. There were times during the planning process where I was convinced that they cared more about our wedding than we did. It was that enthusiasm and drive we needed to make sure everything went according to plan. Because of their passion, our wedding was amazing. We didn't have to worry about anything being out of place or going wrong. It was to the point where if someone asked me a question I'd tell them to ask Erin or Megan instead because they were the ones who could get stuff done. If you need planning and/or coordination help for an event, there is nobody I trust more than Everlasting Events to get the job done.

Welcome to Lavender Blue Floral where we create floral artistry from the heart. I am Lynda, and I am not just a florist, I am a storyteller.

Whether it is a wedding, a birth, or a farewell, flowers can capture the essence of the moment and make it last forever. Having worked as a nurse in emergency medicine in my past, I felt the emotions that life will bring with every chapter that we experience. I was there for all of it, whether joy-filled or tragic.

I've been photographing weddings since 2019, and went full time in 2020. Helping people feel confident and beautiful is such a fulfilling part of this job, and being the go to on the day of your wedding is such a thrill- there's nowhere else I'd rather be! (Except maybe on a coffee date with my toddler- but thats beyond the point lol)

Awarded Best of Zola
Corah is absolutely amazing. One day before our reception, we found out we had COVID-19 and had to cancel. We were able to have our reception at a different location, but with very short notice. She rescheduled, had another meeting with me, and helped me figure out times to set everything for. I knew already how wonderful she was just going through this process. The day of our reception, she was beyond helpful. She helped me with my dress, she found the bustles, she even stacked my cake to tier it when everyone else was afraid to! She made us feel so relaxed during the pictures, at one point we even forgot we were taking them. We had a lot of fun even though we were all freezing! My husband and my family usually dread taking pictures, but they all had so much fun and loved working with Corah. Although this was my first time meeting her in person, she acted as a friend by calming my nerves and making us feel comfortable, not just for the pictures but for our reception too. The pictures were BEYOND my expectations!! Some of the pictures I couldn't even believe were us, it looks like she took them from a magazine. I can't even narrow down my top 5 favorite pictures. I don't really have the words to describe how blown away I was while looking through the pictures for the first time. Corah is an amazing person, and photographer.

Celestia Photo & Film is a wedding photography and videography studio dedicated to capturing love stories with a perfect balance of elegance and authenticity. We specialize in creating timeless images and cinematic films that reflect the beauty, emotion, and joy of your day — so you can relive it for a lifetime.

From the moment our photographer arrived, the whole energy of the morning shifted in the best way. She was calm, friendly, and knew exactly how to step in when we needed help without taking over. Little things—like straightening my dress before portraits or making sure my bouquet wasn’t blocking my face—ended up making such a difference in the photos. She guided us just enough to look great, but most of the time it felt like we were just enjoying the day while she quietly caught everything. The candid shots are some of my absolute favorites—friends laughing, parents wiping away tears, and tiny details we didn’t even notice at the time. When we saw the gallery, it felt like the whole day was there, start to finish, exactly how it happened.

I'm a wedding photographer, and I recently held a styled shoot at VOWS. From beginning to end, the team at VOWS was a dream to work with. Not only are the people lovely, but this space is simply gorgeous. The room itself is very versatile and could be set up in a million different ways, but also needs NO extra decoration for those who love a clean and modern look (like me). It's a bright, minimalist space just a few steps from some of the best restaurants, shopping, and activities in the metro and tons of parking available. The front windows let lots of natural light into the space, while the pendant lighting in the venue allows for a warm and moody feel. The moveable wall (which includes a plain white side, and a greenery side, depending on your preference) can be adjusted to divide the room or act as a backdrop that fits any size wedding day. The couples lounge is AMAZING as well, with the cutest mural of historical wedding photos that is such a fun getting ready backdrop. Can't say ENOUGH good things about VOWS, but highly recommend you check it out in person. I can't wait to shoot a wedding for future clients here!

Your biggest hype girl, professional third wheel, and love-story catcher. I’m all about building real connections with my couples so your photos feel true to you. With a dark and moody style, I focus on the raw, romantic, in-between moments — the deep breaths, stolen glances, and big belly laughs. This isn’t just about pretty pictures; it’s about telling your story honestly, emotionally, and artfully. If you're after a photographer who feels more like a friend, I'm your girl. Let’s make magic together.

When we were planning our wedding, searching for a photographer took us a long time because we didn’t just want to pick anyone. My husband finally came across Kayla and we instantly fell in love with her style. Me and Kayla had a FaceTime call to chat and get to know each other and I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer aside from how good her photos were! She is so professional, friendly, funny and super personable. She not only is our photographer for life but I can also say she has become one of my very good friends! I highly highly recommend her! Her photos are beautiful and she makes you feel so special on your big day! She goes above and beyond on your day to help you with your dress and just make sure everything runs smooth!

I would so recommend The Farmhouse Studios to every one of our friends and family!! She kept the day flowing so well, and kept us all on task to get just the most amazing shots! I can’t say enough good things about Jenni! She does amazing work, you won’t be be disappointed!!

Hello friends! I am a photographer and graphic designer based out of Des Moines, Iowa. I have been shooting since I was 16 years old. After high school, I decided to continue to grow my passion at Grand View University where I received a BA in Photography and Graphic Design in 2018. In March 2020, I decided to expand my business to focus more on weddings, families, and seniors. I love connecting with my clients and photographing them in their most natural state. During the day when a camera is not in my hand, you will be able to find me hanging out at home with my lovely husband, Matt, and hyperactive Dalmatian pups, Winnie and Finn. ​

Meghan did a tremendous job photographing our big day! So much that we have used her since then for a mini-session! From the moment we reached out to Meghan she was incredibly organized and detail oriented - it took away a lot of stress on our part! Family moments, first looks, dancing shots, and of course all the fun ideas we had - she got every moment perfectly. Receiving our photos was so exciting and we love being able to look back on our big day. Believe me, we look at them A LOT! I cannot recommend MEG Photography & Design enough! She will capture your big day, special family moments, Christmas card..anything!
