prel·ude noun "An introductory performance, action, or event preceding a more important one." The Prelude was dreamed up by a couple who craved a feeling they had only experienced in far off lands and story books - They knew there were others out there who dreamed of running away to places that gave them that whimsical feeling again but couldn't see themselves ever doing it - So they decided to create a place that brought that whimsy and feeling to them - The result is one of the best & most unique venues in Central Iowa, located just 30 minutes south of Des Moines. The Prelude is for authentic people who crave a romantic dream from a vanished age. The Prelude isn't only a place that should be seen - It should be experienced.

The Rewind was the perfect location for our reception. The staff was so easy to work with and was very responsive to everything. The food was wonderful. The presidential suit was the perfect place for the girls to get ready and for the bridal party to hangout while we did couple photos. They had many items that we were able to use, meaning we had to bring less decorations. We also had our rehearsal dinner at The Rewind. They set up everything and it was beautiful. I only have good things to say about my experience with The Rewind!!
