Brandy + Tanner’s Mississippi River Wedding at Off Shore Resort – Bellevue, Iowa

February 20, 2023

I feel like it’s a little ironic that Etta James’ “At Last” just started playing for my background work music as I’m sharing Brandy and Tanner’s wedding day. Just like that song; these two have a classic love that I know will stand the test of time for many years to come.

I really enjoyed getting to know these two and being apart of their wedding day. I know that there is so much adventure ahead for them as they journey through life as husband and wife. Their wedding day started on a toasty warm early Fall morning at Tycoga Winery for their intimate ceremony, followed by afternoon wine and cocktails. They then moved east to the Mississippi for a puppy visit at home, a brewery pit-stop, and a final stop at their wedding reception. Rain slowly moved in at dinner, but Tanner and Brandy were able to get some fun beach shots right before the rain. They celebrated and danced the night away with all their family and friends.

Once again I had a hard time narrowing down all the amazing photos from their special day; can you say model couple?! Various shades of blue and classic wedding white were featured throughout the day with a little touch of boho vibes! I hope you enjoy checking out this wedding as much as I enjoyed being apart of it. Also, don’t forget to watch their amazing wedding video of the day below. Abbie Leigh Films caught all the emotion!!
