Top Des Moines Wedding Venues

Iowa has hundreds of stunning wedding venues, but how do you even begin to find the right one?! When it comes to picking your wedding venue, keep in mind your budget, aesthetic, and vibe for the overall day, because picking the right venue is like finding the person you want to marry. You’ll know it when you see it! One of the best ways to pick a wedding venue, is to consult with a wedding planner. Wedding planners have visited hundreds of wedding venues, we know the questions to ask when doing tours, and we can help match your vision and aesthetic of your big day, to the right venue!

My favorite thing about Salisbury House and Gardens is your ability to host your entire wedding day outside, surrounded by the beauty of nature. The venue has a terrace on the East side of the mansion, which is where most couples choose to host their reception. Whether it’s under a tent, or out in the open, it’s always a beautiful setup, and makes the evening feel that much more intimate.
