Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Alicia & Sean

Don't be surprised, Des Moines has a lot to offer! The bride is a huge foodie, so please reach out if you're looking for a particular cuisine.

One of our first dates was walking around Gray's Lake. It has a lively 2 mile walking path.

Gray's Lake

This is where we met, though we had to find another place as it was closing when we arrived. Groovy vibes, great lattes.

Mars Cafe

We had a our first meet-up here. It has a diner vibe with a large selection of espresso drinks, ice cream, teas, and baked goods.

Smokey Row Coffee Co.

They have a huge selection of beers on tap and great food, we always bring out-of-town guests here!

El Bait Shop

Not quite like the one in New York, but it's a quaint district with boutiques, restaurants, and bars. Our favorites are Raygun, Zombie Burger, Up-Down DSM, and Iowa Taproom.

East Village

If you happen to be in town on Saturday morning consider visiting the Farmers' Market. There are Covid-19 restrictions this time around, please check out their website for more info.
