A beautifully renovated wedding venue in west des moines

The Monroe from a photographer’s perspective…

The Monroe is extremely versatile in what it offers for photo opportunities. The billiard room, which is used for cocktail hour and a great general hang space for wedding parties in the morning, lends to epic contrasty portraits with the couple popping off the beautiful wall color. Also, the ceremony space is a beautiful bright white space with so much window light. Lastly, the Monroe keeps a great patio with trees and flowers surrounding couples and their wedding guests.

The billiard Room

Slick furniture, a great wall color and a pool table; this space is begging us to create epic portraits together!

The patio

The patio has beautiful trees and flowers surrounding the space. The brick of the building and the pavers on the patio leave this space feeling super polished, making beautiful wedding day photos a sure thing!
