Maddie + Ben’s Elegant Celebration

“Ben and I have been together since our junior year of high school. He surprised me with a trip to Scotland and proposed after 8 years together. Flash forward to our wedding day—everything was perfect. Our ceremony was held at a church in downtown Des Moines, and our reception at Willow on Grand. Our private last dance with Marquee Events DJs was the perfect ending, it was everything we envisioned for our day! If I was to recommend anything, I’d suggest taking time together during the day—it really lets you focus on each other.” – Maddie (the bride)

Every moment of Maddie + Ben’s celebration reflected timeless elegance and heartfelt joy. The stunning reception at Willow on Grand came to life with romantic decor and rentals by White Willow Events, creating a space that felt warm and beautiful. From their heartfelt vows to their private last dance with Marquee Events DJs , their day was filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Cheers to Maddie + Ben!
