The Exhange on Vine is a beautiful wedding venue in Riverside, Iowa that perfectly captures the Midwest wedding aesthetic, which is exactly what drew Taylor and Trevor to it in the first place. With the rolling hillsides and a private pond, this venue is perfect for any couple wanting a wedding day that feels secluded and intimate.
Inside the venue, you have a stunning blank space that pairs perfectly with any color scheme, and huge windows that bring in natural light, making the space pop! The grand staircase is one of my favorite features to The Exchange on Vine Wedding Venue, because not only is it fun for your grand entrances, but it makes for some truly stunning bridal portraits! You can tell you’ve picked a perfect wedding venue, when the space has plenty of photo opportunities inside! Because as much as we’d like to have perfect weather all the time, we know that unfortunately, that isn’t always the case. So incase you have inclement weather on your wedding day, The Exchange on Vine in Riverside, Iowa has plenty of beautiful spots indoors to take your wedding day photos!
Another feature I love at The Exchange on Vine, is their getting ready spaces for both the bride and groom! While most venues only have a bridal suite for the girls, The Exchange on Vine offers two large rooms for everyone to get ready in. Not to mention, they are both on opporite sides of the staircase with multiple entry points, so you can be sure you won’t accidentally run into each other before your first look! After the ceremony, either room can also be transformed into a kids area, quiet space for the grandparents, or even a place to keep your pets- because they let your bring your fur babies!
tHE EXCHANGE ON VINE WEDDING CEREMONY
The Exchange on Vine can host ceremonies inside and outside, but for Taylor and Trevor, we opted for outside since the couple had such perfect weather!
Taylor and Trevor hosted their ceremony outside, with their adorable pups as their ring bearers! We lined the isle with long stemmed white buds at multiple heights, that played perfectly into the new money aesthetic.
tHE EXCHANGE ON VINE WEDDING RECEPTION
After the ceremony guests headed inside for cocktail hour while the couple went off for photos. Shortly after that the couple had their grand entrance, topped with a champagne pour, and their first dance! We then went into the cake cutting along with speeches and toasts before dinner was served.
After the meal, we kicked off parent dances, and the party offically started with DJ DAS rocking the house!
The excange on vine wedding details
The details are arguably one of my favorite part to any wedding day, because they are always so different! One of my favorite details about Taylor and Trevor’s wedding, was the parasols they had brought for guests to use during the ceremony.
While parasols are a great addition to any outdoor ceremony, they also make for amazing bridal portraits! Don’t believe me? Check out more photos from Taylor and Trevor’s day below!
The wedding desserts
The desserts needed their own highlight- and I’m sure you can see why! Parinda Cupcakes does a fantastic job of creating floral decals on cakes and cupcakes. Her work is the literal definition of “Looks too good to eat”.
Overall, Taylor and Trevor had a stunning wedding at the Exchange on Vine in Riverside, Iowa. Huge thanks to all the amazing vendors who worked together to create a perfect day for the couple!

Taylor & Trevor’s Testimonial
“Lauren was the best decision we made on our wedding day! She was extremely helpful and so accommodating! Minor details that could have gone wrong didn’t because she was there to help. It was also such a relief that she helped pick up our venue so we just had to pick up our totes Sunday morning. She was so fun and bubbly on our day!
