SAVE THE DATE — 2027 Central Iowa Wedding Choice Awards!
Friday, February 19, 2026
6pm – 11pm
Blank Park Zoo – 7401 SW 9th St, Des Moines, IA
Let’s go WILD at this year’s Wedding Choice Awards at Blank Park Zoo. Join us for an unforgettable celebration of Central Iowa’s incredible wedding professionals, pairing untamed energy with elevated style for a night that feels bold, sophisticated and just a little unexpected.
Surrounded by one of Des Moines’ most iconic settings, we’ll gather to celebrate the talent, creativity and dedication that make our wedding community extraordinary — and announce the winners of the 2027 Wedding Choice Awards.
This is a night created especially for our industry: a chance to trade timelines and to-do lists for cocktails, conversation and a well-deserved night out. Embrace the theme, add a touch of animal-inspired glamour or come entirely as yourself. Black tie is recommended, because even in the wild, we still like to get fancy.
*** Voting for Wedding Choice Awards will launch Oct 15, 2026, and will run until Jan. 15, 2027. Watch for more posts on voting to come this Fall. ***
