Drew + Blake’s Modern Elegance

Both Iowa natives who first met in Iowa City, Drew + Blake wove in plenty of Hawkeye traditions—from a stop at Brother’s to wedding party photos on campus, the perfect pre-party!

With the expertise of Bright Designs, they created a sleek black-and-white aesthetic and even asked guests to join the look in formal black or white attire. The ghost chairs from Unique Events Iowa brought a chic, modern touch to the reception, perfectly complementing the elegant design. Plus, thoughtful paper goods and signage by Noted Design tied everything together with personal meaning.

This wedding was extra close to the heart—one of the grooms is Hannah, owner of Noted Design’s, brother and the day was hosted at their family’s venue.
