Please reach out to Shawn or Skyler or the hotel itself to see if we are able to extend the hotel block. Both hotels will only add 2 or so rooms at a time once we've reached our capacity. If we are unable to extend the hotel blocks further, we will look at adding another hotel. Prairie Meadows is for the night of the wedding only. They have been flexible if you are planning to be in town for the night of 7/31 as well. Please give them a call if you need an extra night. The Hyatt - Des Moines/Altoona has some availability the night of 7/31 and then the block for 8/1.
Your invitation will detail whether or not you have a plus one.
We ask that you wear semi-formal attire (dressy separates, cocktail dresses, or suits) to help us celebrate. We kindly ask that you avoid wearing white.
We are only allowing for those children participating in the wedding ceremony to be in attendance. We do understand that this may be an inconvenience and hope that you are still able to attend.
Yes. Our venue will live stream our ceremony. We will have a link to give you access.

Yes. Both the ceremony and the reception have ample free parking in their parking lot.
We kindly request that guests do not take photos during the event. We have professional photographers to capture every moment so we can unplug and enjoy!
