Tim and Averie's wedding at The Tea Room in Des Moines was equal parts cinematic, emotional, and entirely unfiltered. Traveling from Los Angeles for their Iowa wedding weekend, the couple wanted their day documented candidly — allowing moments to unfold naturally, without interruption.
Shot primarily on film, the gallery weaves together downtown grit, vintage romance, a champagne tower, candlelit dinners, and the striking Danielle Frankel Noa gown worn by Averie, who was the first bride to wear the design.
Featured in The Wed, this Des Moines wedding embraced movement, emotion, and atmosphere over perfection — resulting in imagery that feels timeless, editorial, and deeply personal all at once.
