You know it's a true celebration when the wedding party dances down the aisle together to “Lovely Day” by Bill Withers. 

Before Jordan and Allyson’s beautiful wedding, there was the epic proposal. Jordan told Allyson he needed help capturing drone footage of a damaged crop field for insurance. As she got the drone above the field, she looked at the monitor to see Jordan had tilled “Marry Me?” into the ground. When she looked up, Jordan was on one knee in tears with a ring in hand. What’s even more special is that they had their first date a few years prior in the same field! Iowa love at its finest! 

As the owner of The 1868 Farmhouse in Boone, Iowa, Allyson had the dream venue. Multiple timeless rooms, stunning brick, and historic charm — what more do you need in a gorgeous wedding venue? It was truly the perfect setting. 

The entire place was full of beautiful florals from Shelly Sarver Designs. Made up of white and dusty blue flowers with touches of greenery, Allyson’s bouquet matched her bridesmaids’ dresses. “Shelly is a master at what she does. She takes a vision and turns it into a reality better than anything you could have imagined,” she said. Speaking of her bouquet, Allyson had a picture of her dad in a locket attached to her arrangement. A special element to remember her late father. 

As she and Jordan danced down the aisle, Allyson wore a lovely mermaid dress from Modern Dress. From the beautiful details to the chic neckline, the dress was definitely a showstopper. 

Since the two had so much fun during their special day, they said they often forgot it was pouring rain all day — EXCEPT when they had their outdoor ceremony. The raindrops stopped just in time for them to walk down the aisle. How crazy!

When it came to vendors, Allyson and Jordan completely trusted and loved all who made their wedding day special. 

“I think it’s important to book vendors you vibe well with because you end up spending so much time with them on your wedding day and might even end up being great friends with after,” Allyson said. The day couldn’t have been more fun!
