Wedding at New Hope in Urbandale, Iowa

What a perfect way to wrap up my wedding season—with Chayce and Michael’s intimate celebration at New Hope in Urbandale. They kept their ceremony to just immediate family, creating a close-knit atmosphere where everyone truly got to connect. I absolutely love smaller gatherings like this; there’s something so meaningful about having time to talk to each person and soak in those special moments with family.

After the heartfelt ceremony, the group kept things casual and cozy, sharing a catered Chick-fil-A meal together before heading over to Bella Love, where more friends joined in for cake and dancing. The energy was so warm and celebratory—it felt like one big family reunion. I was genuinely touched by how warmly they welcomed me into their day.

The day flew by, as beautiful days often do, but it was full of memories that I feel so grateful to have captured. Here’s to Chayce and Michael, and to the joy of spending your wedding day surrounded by those who mean the most!
