Celebrate in the
Heart of Des Moines
Weddings at Bash
Bash is a modern-luxe wedding venue in downtown Des Moines, created for couples who want a celebration that feels refined, intentional, and genuinely enjoyable from start to finish. It is a space designed with the understanding that a wedding should feel elevated without becoming overproduced, and beautiful without feeling overly managed.
From your first walkthrough to the final song of the night, everything at Bash is built to remove friction rather than add to it. The layout, inclusions, and planning support work together so your day unfolds naturally, without constant transitions, delays, or behind-the-scenes stress pulling you out of the moment. Instead of juggling rentals, timelines, and logistics, you are free to focus on what matters most: the people, the atmosphere, and the experience you are creating together.
The result is a wedding day that feels thoughtfully curated without feeling staged, polished without feeling stiff, and seamless without requiring you to oversee every moving part. Bash is not about excess or spectacle. It is about clarity, flow, and confidence, giving you a setting that feels intentional the moment your guests arrive and stays that way through every part of the celebration.
Thoughtfully Designed for the Way You Celebrate
Every wedding at Bash is supported by a planning-forward approach that removes unnecessary stress. From early walkthroughs to timeline coordination, the team focuses on helping your day run smoothly, calmly, and on schedule. The venue includes tables, chairs, linens, core décor pieces, and staffing, so you are not juggling multiple rentals or vendors just to make the space work. Bridal and groom suites offer private areas to get ready, reset, and breathe before the celebration begins. The goal is simple. You enjoy the moments. Bash handles the logistics.
In-House Catering, Bar Service, and Flexible Options
Bash offers in-house catering and full bar service, designed to feel elevated while still approachable. Menus are crafted to work beautifully for weddings, with options that balance presentation, flavor, and guest experience. Bar packages are streamlined for efficiency and quality, ensuring smooth service throughout the night. For couples with specific cultural needs or trusted culinary partners, approved outside caterers may be considered to ensure your celebration still meets Bash standards. However your day is designed, the focus remains the same. Great food, great service, and a celebration that feels effortless from start to finish.
Designed for Better Views
and Better Photos
Our multi-level layout is designed for flow and focus. By separating spaces vertically, the main reception level stays open, uncluttered, and centered on what matters most. Your dance floor remains the visual anchor. Speeches, first dances, and key moments stay front and center, without crowds gathering in the background or competing elements pulling attention away.
Guests seated on the upper level enjoy a clear sightline to the celebration below, creating a connected experience without crowding the floor. Whether your style leans timeless, editorial, or somewhere in between, Bash offers a flexible canvas that feels polished, purposeful, and already complete.
