    We love Complete Weddings

    We went through Complete Weddings + Events for both our DJ and photographer, and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish.

    From the beginning, Kim, our main contact at Complete, was so helpful, responsive, and flexible. She kept us in the loop and made sure everything was on track. Their online planning system was also super easy to use, which made organizing everything much less stressful.

    As for our vendors, they were phenomenal.
    Our photographer, Hope, was far and away the best photographer we could have ever asked for. She was so communicative throughout the entire process, doing multiple Zoom calls to get to know me and my husband and really understand our vision for the day. She even looked through my Pinterest board and created a full shot list ahead of time, which she had on-hand day-of.

    Hope helped build our photography timeline and it worked out perfectly. She made everyone feel comfortable and at ease, gave clear direction to make photos feel natural and candid, and was so fun to be around. On top of that, she brought her Polaroid camera and gave us a little album of instant photos from the day such a thoughtful touch.

    It was nearly 90 degrees on our wedding day, and she was still willing to move around our large venue, scout different photo spots, and never once made us feel rushed. We’ve only received our sneak peeks so far (which she delivered within days!), and we are blown away. I truly could not recommend Hope more she was professional, fun, and so incredibly talented. I feel so lucky we had her capturing our wedding.

    Our DJ, Cody, was also amazing! He kept the energy up all night, read the crowd perfectly, and made sure everything flowed smoothly from the reception entrance to the last song. He was great with announcements and timing and really kept the party going. We also added the lighting package, which elevated the dance floor and helped everything feel like a real celebration.

    If you’re even slightly considering using Complete Weddings + Events do it! They were incredibly affordable for the level of service we received and made our day feel seamless and unforgettable.

    Thank you so much to Complete Weddings, Kim, Hope, and Cody we couldn’t be more grateful!

    Videographer


    Eli was AMAZING to work with!! He was so kind, friendly, professional, thoughtful, and excited. We could go on and on about working with him. We are so glad that we decided to add a videographer for our wedding. Can’t wait to see the finished product!

    Incredible dj & photographer


    Sue & Thurman were so helpful in coordinating our big day, and quick to answer all of my questions. We used Complete for our photographer & DJ Andy was our DJ, he was so thorough when planning out all the music & he kept our dance floor full for the entire night. We got SO many compliments on the music! Andres was our photographer. He was very laid back and fun during photos & made sure to get every shot we wanted. We can’t wait to see all of our photos! I highly recommend Complete Weddings + Events for all of your wedding needs. I couldn’t be more happy with all of their staff members & would definitely hire them again!

    We had Kevin as our DJ. He gave us the most perfect day I could've ever asked for. The company overall was very flexible and worked well with us when we had an unexpected DJ cancellation close to our wedding. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    We loved them! Definitely recommend!

    We loved having complete at our wedding. We found them at a wedding show in Des Moines and were able to get a great deal on their services. From the beginning they were very helpful, providing planning sheets and contact via email to help us plan how our wedding will go and to answer any questions. Getting closer to our day they gave us the names and contact information for our vendors and when I lost that information they were quick to send it to me again. We were able to chat with Quinton, our DJ, via Zoom a week before our day to iron out some details including the timing of the evening and the type of music we wanted (we have an odd taste in music and he was able to accommodate us without any issue, I walked down to Hamilton and Ryan Bingham was the artist for our first dance song). Emily was our photographer for the day. She was great! She coordinated really well with our private videographer and even accommodated some odd poses we requested. She made sure we had time to mingle with our guests as well as time for photos. During our dances I barely noticed her, but I could see her working hard on the sidelines. She really liked her. We also got the photo booth and up lighting. We were able to get the lighting in mint green, which was one of our wedding colors and it really put a nice polish on our decorations. The photo booth was definitely the biggest hit of the night. Andrea and Misty were super friendly and were even seen dancing when they weren't busy. We received a copy of all the photo strip in a book with notes from our guests, which was one of our favorite items from the night. The pictures were a blast to look through. Overall, will definitely recommend to all our friends.

    I used the photo booth part of their service, the gentleman who came to do the photo booth was awesome. He was prompt and did the best that he could with the equipment given to him. This is where my positive experience ended. Their service states that you get a scrapbook and flash drive with the photo's. We pointed out an error and were told that they would fix it for the flash drive. We were married on 3/14/15 and today 5/12/15 I get my package containing my flash drive from USPS postage due. I can live with that part, however I open the photo's up and the color correction on name and date wasn't done as promised nor was the date corrected.

    This didn't ruin my day, but if you book their service please beware that they are very responsive up front but their back end follow up is absolutely the worst I've ever used. It's upsetting that I paid $800 for this service and had to fight so incredibly hard to get the final product to realize it's not what was promised to me.
