Karlie & Jarrod

A Picture Perfect Spring Wedding With All the Florals | Promise City, Iowa

May 30, 2026

Wow! SUCH an incredibly beautiful wedding. Karlie truly knocked it out of the *park* on planning and executing her wedding day vision. She told me on our consultation call how much she loved florals and that they'd be everywhere throughout her wedding - and she did not disappoint. It. was. STUNNING. I'm still not over it!


The day was full of so many emotions and happy tears. Everyone was so excited to get these high school sweethearts finally married! It was so clear how important their faith it to each other and in their relationship. Their ceremony felt more like a worship service with songs of praise, communion, and lots of prayers for the newlyweds. It was truly so beautiful. There were so many well-wishes for the new couple, but Karlie's sister definitely hit the spot during her Maid of Honor speech when she told Jarrod, "I hope you have as much fun growing old with Karlie as I did growing up with her." I mean.... how sweet is that!?


What an incredible day. Congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs. Parks!!
