Which of your vendors would you recommend to other couples?
- “Florist: We used Hy-Vee Floral in Boone, IA. Lisa Simpson did an excellent job of taking a small idea and adding her magic touch to the flowers.
- Photographer: Taylor L Chung out of Ames did our photography. He was excellent. He remembers everyone’s name which made our day even more special for our wedding party.
- Cake and Cookies: Cake Me, I’m Yours! Heather Friedrichsen out of Perry, IA. She did a fantastic job with our wedding cake. She is a wonderfully creative person. Her cakes are homemade and she has so many different flavors- we ended up with 5 in both our wedding cake and the sheet cakes.
- Band: The Bill Martin Band played at our reception for a couple of hours. They are a great group. We really enjoyed listening and dancing to their music.”
What was your favorite thing about Gateway Hotel?
“The customer service we received was excellent. We could not have asked more from a staff that not only knew what they were doing but also enjoyed it. Betsy (Gateway’s Wedding Coordinator) was there for every little detail and everything turned out wonderfully. We received so many compliments on how wonderful everything was! We still hear about how amazing the food was at our wedding.”
What made your wedding so unique?
“Our wedding was a wonderful experience. We had fabulous vendors as well as a wonderful staff at Gateway helping make our day the best. Both of our families were also instrumental in the success of our day making it the best day!”
