DJ Cox Entertainment 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Ainsworth, IA

With more than 25 years of actual DJ experience, you won’t find a more accomplished, skilled and entertaining person to help you with your wedding. Music has been in my life from an early age. At 8 years old, I would pretend to DJ on the radio using my parents’ Beach Boys records and a wooden spoon for a mic. At 17, I started DJing on the radio and I was hooked! In college I majored in communication and performing arts, where I honed my improvisation and listening skills to better connect with people and smoothly adjust to every situation.

John was amazing. From our first meeting to our private final dance, John made our wedding day so special. He read the crowd during the dance and kept it packed all night. We had so many people and even other vendors, tell us that he was one of the best DJs they have seen! We danced the night away with all of our friends on the dance floor just like we wanted. You will not regret hiring John to be a part of your big day. I truly believe that the DJ sets the tone for the whole wedding and John does an amazing job.

I am Olivia Erenberger (pronounced Aaron Burger, like the hamburger) your fun and quirky and boho, Jesus loving, Texas country obsessed photographer based out of Tampa, Florida and Solon, Iowa. While wedding photography is my main squeeze, I fill the rest of my time with capturing life's best moments including family photography, high school senior photography, Maternity photography, Rodeo event Photography, and other portraits around Florida and Iowa.

Olivia was so easy to work with. She came prepared to help organize a wild bridal party, and everyone loved her! She stayed through most of the reception to capture precious moments, which was few hours past what we expected! No demand for more pay she just works that hard for her couples! The pictures turned out amazing!

Cherish the Day

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Ainsworth, IA

Welcome to Cherish the Day, you are in the right place! My name is Lisa Syring and planning/coordinating your dream day is my game, no need to look any further. Having a Certified Wedding Planner in your back pocket is a great gift you can give to yourself and then wonder how you thought you could manage without me. Lead me to your dream day and I will execute every detail (plus more)! I love to remind my couples if, at the end of your dream day you are married to your best friend, all we did was a success!! My couples entrust in us and execution is key to us.

We could not recommend Cherish the Day enough!! I’ve been raving to anyone who asks—and even those who don’t—about working with Lisa. I initially started looking for “Day Of” coordinators when Lisa presented her “Month Of” package. It was the perfect amount of help for someone who was willing to do all of the legwork of finding and selecting vendors and just wanted assistance with the communication and execution once it was closer to the wedding date. We met with Lisa over a year before the wedding just so we could talk about our vision for our wedding and to see what areas we might need help in. She gave vendor recommendations when needed and made sure I had checklists to stay on track with booking everything. With her experience, she asked us questions about things we didn’t even realize we need to consider and gave suggestions if we were struggling. The best part was that she handled all of the vendor communication in the month leading up to the wedding, and she built the most detailed timeline for us (bridal party and vendors) to follow. My goal was to have someone that any and all questions could be directed to so that I didn’t have to add any stress—Lisa was that person and so, so much more. Both Lisa and her assistant (there on the day of) are amazing to work with—so personal and professional at the same time and there every step of the day. Cherish the Day is truly one of the best investments we made for our wedding!!

DJ Davin Titus

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Ainsworth, IA

Elevate your event experience. I provide premium sound system, dance floor lighting, tube lighting, full room dynamic up lighting, live DJ mixing, and emceeing, to any event you are imagining. I try to help any potential client gain a better perspective on the importance of not only hiring someone to play a role as a "DJ" - (aka someone who simply plays music) but also having that same person actively assist with the flow of the event and truly becoming integrated within your event. If you feel like we would be a great fit, I'd love the opportunity to chat!

Davin was INCREDIBLE! He was an incredible communicator, extremely organized, was on top of everything before our wedding day and during, and was incredibly talented. He played music that we requested as well as adding songs that matched the vibe. I really liked that he was actually DJing too. It wasn’t just like a Spotify playlist playing. I don’t know the right words to use but he used remixes and added beats to songs that would normally be difficult to dance to. My now husband and I didn’t want to leave the dance floor. There were plenty of times when we wanted a break from dancing physically but then another great song would come on so we just ended up staying on the dance floor. I even heard guests say they were getting some fresh air for a second and then the song would change and they changed their minds too and kept dancing. Honestly you couldn’t ask for a better DJ for your event. Such a talented and great guy!

After our complimentary 2 hour planning meeting I felt so organized & confident in our schedule for the day. It honestly gave me a direction for planning all the other details of my wedding day. I’m thrilled that hiring them as a DJ gets me a day-of coordinator included, because that’s something I planned on getting for my wedding anyways! There was also a few add-ons I went with that I didn’t even know were options, like a photobooth & karaoke! They’ve been exceptionally helpful every step of the way. Can’t recommend enough!!

Something Borrowed Blooms

  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Ainsworth, IA

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Something Borrowed Blooms provided the most lifelike and luxurious floral arrangements for our wedding day. The bouquets, ceremony pieces and boutonnieres were all incredibly realistic and high quality, with vibrant colors and lush textures that exceeded our expectations. In fact, as my husband and I were taking photos in a park, a bee even tried to pollinate my bouquet, drawn to its beauty and realism. Getting the boxes to the venue did require a bit of coordination, but with a little help from friends we were able to easily box them up the day after the wedding and ship them off via FedEx. We saved easily 2,000 thanks to Something Borrowed and you would never know the flowers were fake.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

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.

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!

Mike knows how to keep people engaged and entertained and we loved how he mixed songs together and kept people on their toes (literally).

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.

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.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.
