I honestly cannot say enough positive things about Alta House and their staff. Our coordinator made sure our day ran perfectly and was there to help with the little and small things. She saved me so much unnecessary stress. If I had to do it all again I would choose Alta House again without a doubt. The property is beautiful, and the venue can be made to fit your vision no matter what it is.

The Iowa Taproom

Des Moines, IA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $750

Host your party in a building full of history and charm! With exposed brick and a modern yet vintage feel, The Iowa Taproom is a unique venue in the historic East Village perfect for every event. Your rental will include on site catering, a fully stocked bar, private event staff, set-up and tear-down, and much more.

Super helpful coordinators. We had the ceremony and reception here and it was perfect for a small to medium wedding. They have center pieces to rent and they set up all the tables and linens so you have virtually no set up to do at the venue. You can’t hang stuff on the walls but the space so so beautiful and decorated already so you don’t really need much. The food was delicious also.

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!
