Salisbury House & Gardens is a wedding venue and museum situated in Des Moines, Iowa. The original owner, Carl Weeks, founded liquid foundation and hypoallergenic makeup, so it is fitting that his 42-room mansion has received a magnificent makeover as a wedding venue and event center. The mansion was built in the 1920s and was inspired by The King's House in Salisbury, England, blending Tudor, Carolean, and Gothic architectural details. Today, to-be-weds can celebrate their romantic nuptials in style at this sophisticated estate. From intimate elopements to large-scale receptions, Salisbury House & Gardens is suitable for events of all styles and sizes. You can say "I do" in front of several beautiful indoor backdrops or outdoors, where tall trees envelope a traditional arbor and manicured garden spaces. Couples can curate their dream reception indoors, outside, or in an elegant marquee.

Unbeatable venue for a garden party style wedding. Beautiful, well-maintained, and a staff that was exceptionally helpful and easy to work with made this our dream location. Visit and you will fall in love.

VOWS DSM 

5.0

Des Moines, IA
  • Up to 65 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

A STATE DESTINATION and one-of-a-kind venue focused on bringing new concepts to the wedding experience. Relax - enjoy your big day with intention. Vows is dedicated to providing a fresh, effortless, alternative. We can accommodate your wedding months, weeks and in some cases days in advance. 1HR, 2HR, 3HR & 4 1/2 HR WEDDING //RECEPTION OPTIONS 6 DAYS A WEEK. UNIQUE PACKAGES /PROGRESSIVE WEDDINGS 2 - 65 GUESTS /$995 - $12,500+ Venue Only /BYOVendors - Planner or GET IT ALL Photographer/ Coordinator/ Officiant/ Flowers + Fare INCLUDED ++

I'm a wedding photographer, and I recently held a styled shoot at VOWS. From beginning to end, the team at VOWS was a dream to work with. Not only are the people lovely, but this space is simply gorgeous. The room itself is very versatile and could be set up in a million different ways, but also needs NO extra decoration for those who love a clean and modern look (like me). It's a bright, minimalist space just a few steps from some of the best restaurants, shopping, and activities in the metro and tons of parking available. The front windows let lots of natural light into the space, while the pendant lighting in the venue allows for a warm and moody feel. The moveable wall (which includes a plain white side, and a greenery side, depending on your preference) can be adjusted to divide the room or act as a backdrop that fits any size wedding day. The couples lounge is AMAZING as well, with the cutest mural of historical wedding photos that is such a fun getting ready backdrop. Can't say ENOUGH good things about VOWS, but highly recommend you check it out in person. I can't wait to shoot a wedding for future clients here!

Toast 

5.0

Ankeny, IA
  • Up to 425 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Toast is a stunning industrial CHIC venue located just a short distance from downtown Des Moines in Ankeny’s vibrant and upscale entertainment center — The District at Prairie Trail. With over 15,000 square feet of space that includes a luxurious main event space, bridal suite and rooftop patio, Toast hosts events of all sizes including intimate gatherings and large celebrations for up to 425 people.

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.
