Maddie and Evan’s Wedding at Bella Sala in Tiffin, Iowa

White & Blue July Wedding at Bella Sala in Tiffin, Iowa

Love built on Friendship and Fun

Maddie and Evan’s love story began on the campus of the University of Northern Iowa, where their paths crossed often, thanks to mutual friends and shared interests. “Evan ran track, and I played soccer at UNI, so we had a lot of friends in common and frequently ran into each other at parties,” Maddie recalls. What started as casual encounters soon grew into something much deeper, as their connection blossomed into love.

The Important Things

For Maddie and Evan, the decision to work with Soirée Wedding Planning was rooted in three key priorities that they knew would make their wedding day truly unforgettable. To ensure their special day was everything they dreamed of and more, they turned to Emily and her expert team at Soirée Wedding Planning. The couple happily decided on the Essentials Package after meeting with Emily for their initial consultation. The couples top three priorities were:

  • Limiting Stress: Maddie and Evan wanted to be fully present on their wedding day, focusing on each other and their guests without the burden of logistical worries. “Limiting our stress so we can focus on us and our guests” was a top priority, and Emily’s team was committed to making that happen.
  • Perfecting Speeches and Toasts: Maddie holds a deep appreciation for the heartfelt words shared during speeches and toasts. “I care a lot about the speeches and toasts. I want to make sure those are broadcasted well for everyone to hear,” she emphasized.
  • Creating a Lively Atmosphere: For Maddie and Evan, a successful wedding meant a lively dance floor and guests who were engaged and enjoying themselves. “The most fun weddings I have been to are the ones where the dance floor is busy and people are socializing. I want that to be a focus,” they shared.
