First Look and Portraits

Before their wedding celebrations at Stardust in Davenport, Brittany and Tanner got ready separately with the company of their wedding parties. Getting ready with their closest friends meant that both Brittany and Tanner had the ultimate hype crew there for them as they prepped for their day. Brittany looked and felt like a princess in her wedding dress, and at her first look with her gals they made sure that she knew it! After they were both ready it was time for their first look in the lobby of their hotel room. Seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day both Brittany and Tanner couldn’t help but let out THE biggest smiles.

After their first look we took some time for some couples portraits. We had two stops to make, the Figge Art Museum and the nearby river that Tanner loves to go fishing on. Both locations were stellar, even though we did come across a man bathing in one of the fountains. Thankfully we had PLENTY of other background opportunities to enjoy! After their couples portraits it was time to hop on the party bus with their wedding parties and make our way over to Stardust in Davenport for the rest of the festivities.

Their Wedding at Stardust

Stardust in Davenport is a wedding venue with a ton of charm and a rich history to it. It was once an auto shop that was converted to a wedding venue and event space back in 2016. Since then Stardust has been a venue that prides itself on being a blank slate for their clients while also providing next level service to them. Brittany and Tanner’s wedding had touches of beautiful florals and other decorations throughout while still taking advantage of the classic feel that Stardust’s building has. After a beautiful ceremony, the two signed their names on a wall alongside every other couple that has had their wedding there. They then spent the rest of their evening singing, dancing, and taking in all the love from their people there to celebrate with them!
