Super helpful coordinators. We had the ceremony and reception here and it was perfect for a small to medium wedding. They have center pieces to rent and they set up all the tables and linens so you have virtually no set up to do at the venue. You can’t hang stuff on the walls but the space so so beautiful and decorated already so you don’t really need much. The food was delicious also.

We got married at Toast last month, and it was my dream wedding. We toured Toast over a year and a half ago and Sara was so helpful and kind from the start! While it’s not the cheapest venue out there it is by far the most beautiful and requires less decor - potentially saving you money on other items. The only thing that we wish the venue did have was a room for the groom/groomsmen to get ready.

This venue is simply amazing! When you arrive, you are immediately transported to a country paradise. The thought and detail that has gone into the landscaping is impeccable and this gives your photographer unlimited options for photos. Then you walk into the tent and are transported yet again to a chic, but still rustic oasis. Again the amount of thought that went into the details of the inside of the tent are incredible. Plus they have plenty of decorations for you to use if you choose to do so. The cost of the venue doesn’t break the budget and you get a lot of bang for your buck here. But the best part of this venue is the staff. This is a family run venue and they have put a lot of love, sweat, and tears into making this place amazing and it shows. They were in constant communication about things and had several meetings to go over the details of the big day. They were also very helpful the day of the wedding. I can’t sing their praises enough! Holly, Montana, and team thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our special day simply magical.

Iris Aisle

Winterset, IA
  • Up to 75 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Iris Aisle is a Victorian greenhouse that sits amongst our cedar grove in Madison County, Iowa. We built Iris Aisle ourselves, around the idea of creating a sanctuary where nature lovers could come to feel at home and be surrounded by medicinal plants and herbs and all of nature’s wonder, inside and out. Simplicity is our goal here, so we only host events of 75 or fewer people. We knew we wanted this place to be geared toward smaller weddings, because there is no other place in Iowa that does. So many venues want to go big or go home, but that’s not us. Instead, we want to shift the mindset of what this day is truly about, how true connection with those you love the most is deeply important.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Bridal suite on site
