Schedule

Welcome Party

6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Welcome to Iowa! All wedding guests are invited to join us as we kick off the weekend at Wilson’s Orchard — a stunning 125-acre farm property featuring a local market, beautiful outdoor spaces, and rustic Iowa charm. Whether you’re traveling in from near or far, we can’t wait to gather, relax, and celebrate with everyone before the big day! TRANSPORTATION: If you take an Uber or Lyft to Wilson’s, we will provide shuttle service back to AC Hotel. Please indicate on your RSVP if you plan to utilize the shuttle service back to the hotel. FOOD: Light bites will be provided — but if you’re extra hungry, the kitchen will also be open in the main hall (and we highly recommend the #4 sandwich!).

Shuttle service to and from the AC Hotel Des Moines East Village will be provided. Valet and self- parking available. Ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30. Formal/cocktail attire. Adults only. After-Party at AC Hotel. 'Dueling Pianos' taking requests for tips!

Day Out in East Village

12:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Spend the day exploring East Village with us! We’re planning a casual, optional outing for anyone who wants to keep the good times rolling, and experience a few local favorites. We'll meet at Ernie's Boondock, across from the hotel, at noon! All are welcome!
