Emilee Meador Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,295
  • Serves West Union, IA

I love a good love story. There’s nothing I enjoy more than photographing the kind of love that sets the soul on fire. Or capturing the excitement that comes from saying ‘yes’ to forever with your best friend. I’m empowered by the couples who are passionate about life but don’t take it too seriously. The ones who crave adventure and aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Who value connection and intentional conversation while making the time and space in their relationship to grow in love and as individuals.

Emily - and her husband, Dan - are an absolute joy to work! They put as much effort into trying to be helpful, and to be a friend to you, as they do into getting incredible photos. They’re easy to communicate with, fun to be around, as professional as they come, more creative than you can imagine, and the end product will leave you breathless! Absolutely cannot recommend them enough!

Eden Ehm - Violin & Hardingfele 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves West Union, IA

I am a professional violinist and fiddler available to perform within the Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin tri-state area. (Note: my travel radius is within approximately a 60-minute drive of the tri-state.) A classically trained violinist for 30+ years, I play professionally in several area symphony orchestras and chamber ensembles and perform solo for special events. I have also played the Hardanger fiddle, Norway's national folk instrument, for 15+ years and am available to perform, demonstrate, and lecture about this unique instrument.

As a Hardanger fiddler, Eden is not only a masterful musician but an excellent educator as well, both introducing an instrument and musical repertoire that may be unfamiliar to the listener and providing tantalizing details for the aficionado. Her expertly presented programs are an invitation to a unique world of art, history, and culture extending from Norway to the Upper Midwest. Highly recommended.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.9

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves West Union, IA

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a tropical themed wedding and used Flower Moxie for tropical flowers and greenery: bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, ceremony arch flowers. I wish there were more tropical related videos on their DIY Academy, but I did love working with my assigned florist and the help desk was quick in their response. For those who are getting married at the same location that the flowers are being delivered (my parents' home), I wish we would have done all of the floral arrangements the day before instead of 2 days before. And our spray roses came a day later and were a little sad looking. But overall, we were very happy with the service and highly recommend to others!

Jen is incredible and worth every penny! My husband and I weren't very sure about how we wanted our wedding florals to look. We also didn't want to spend thousands of dollars on flowers that would only last a day. We stumbled upon wood flowers and discovered Wood and Word Blooms! Working with Jen was wonderful and seamless. She helps you every step of the way to figure out what you would like. The DIY class was so much fun, and we were able to build all of our centerpieces, boutonnières, and bouquets. Jen also built my cascade bouquet and beautiful garland for us! Everything came out so beautifully and was perfect for our day. Thank you Jen!

Hello! My name is Christian. Whether camera shy or not, my couples have a great time with me. I've documented over 1200 weddings leaving many happy clients across the world. I'm also a master in the wedding industry - I have a high-end team of wedding pros, some of them have won awards by Sony, Vogue, and other big names. Not to brag, but hands-down the best team in USA. There is no team like it and I invite you to take a look. What does this mean to you? an awesome experience + end up looking extra amazing in your wedding photos. It requires great direction, that's something you can't buy in other companies: and that's what sets up apart.

He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Wedding and Event Videographer. Five years filming weddings as a hobby, can't believe it's turned into a career. I love capturing your memories on such an important day and turning that footage into a beautiful video to rewatch the day over and over again. To keep things simple, I offer everything in one simple affordable package. I'm there all day long and I wanna be there to capture every single moment. You'll have your videos in three weeks or less.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can not explain how important Britt was to us on our wedding day. We had initially planned on not hiring a wedding videographer and just sticking to a still photographer. But after hearing from a friend who hired Britt for her wedding about the priceless moments he captured throughout her day, we thought we'd reach out to him. By a miracle, he was available on our date! Britt is an absolute professional. He was so easy to work with throughout our entire wedding day, and he made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He worked amazingly with our photographer and we felt confident he'd be able to capture the absolute best moments of our day. I am now SO GLAD we made the decision to hire Britt. Watching the wedding videos he put together is like re-living our big day all over again. Being able to see everyone's emotions on video and getting to experience the little moments we missed are invaluable. And those are moments you just cant capture in still photographs. If anyone is on the fence about adding a videographer to your big day, this is your sign! You will not regret hiring Britt. He is worth every penny and more, the memories he captures are absolutely PRICELESS.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!

We could not recommend Flower Oak more! Mark and his team were incredible throughout the booking process and answered all of our questions in such a timely manner. We booked them 18 months before our wedding date and they continued to check in periodically to be sure we didn’t need anything. Prior to the wedding, they have you fill out a pdf with all important information, preferences, etc which they follow exactly! The day of, we had Jesse as our videographer, and he was wonderful! He was timely, kind, professional, and fit right in with our group. He traveled to multiple locations with us to capture all aspects of our day. He independently got with our photographers and DJ to ensure everything worked well together. We just got our films back (only 8 weeks from the wedding) and they are STUNNING! The highlight film reflects our day perfectly and the editing is just perfect. The documentary edit is a great way to relive the day from start to finish. Not to mention it is so fun and amazing to have access to all the raw footage; there are so many tiny clips that we have found and truly love all of them. The audio quality is top notch. As a team, Flower Oak is truly amazing. We couldn’t have imagined our day filmed in any other way and now we have it forever to remember! Highly recommend!
