Wedding and Event Venue with an On-Site Coordinator

If you visit the Alta House Event Center, an intimate venue in Newton, Iowa, you’ll find yourself in a unique location with amenities you won’t find just anywhere. Situated conveniently off Interstate-80 and adjacent to a KOA Journey campground, the Alta House Event Center offers more than your standard venue options. Most couples making their must-have lists when looking for a venue don’t have accommodations on that list. Here are a few reasons why choosing a venue that offers on-site accommodations, such as the Alta House Event Center, should be at the top of your list:


Ensure your Guest’s Safety at Your Wedding Venue


One of the best benefits of having overnight accommodations adjacent to the wedding venue is not worrying about guests making it home safely. Couples want their friends and families to have a great time and help make their night one to remember, which often tends to include alcohol consumption. Finding a venue with sleeping options ensures your guests stay safe.


The Ultimate Convenience on Your Wedding Day


Did you ever get lost on the way to a friend's wedding or reception? Most weddings will have loved ones arriving from all directions to watch two people say, “I do”. Having a venue where you can perform the ceremony, enjoy a reception immediately following, plus the added benefit of adjacent lodging available at your wedding venue is the ultimate convenience and positive guest-experience!


Unique Amenities for a Central Iowa Wedding Venue


All venues have their own unique qualities. However, venues offering on-site accommodations usually stand out. Not only does it allow for the bridal couple to have all of their loved ones nearby, lodging facilities often have a range of amenities for entertainment. At the Alta House Event Center, guests that book cabins, Vintage Row, or sites at the campground get to also enjoy a pool, the playground area for kids, a private fishing pond (also a great place for photos!) and a hiking trail. When you take a tour of the Alta House Event Center, we include a tour of the nearby Newton / Des Moines East KOA Campground so you can check out the numerous accommodations and the gorgeous photo opportunities.
