Located in Newton, IA, Alta House Event Center is a rural wedding venue. This rustic farmhouse is complemented by all of the modern facilities you have come to rely on. Situated less than an hour from Des Moines, this setting feels like an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Our team is there to support you every step of the way . Owners Dana and Curtis VanGilder purchased this property in 2018 and renovated every aspect of it. They wanted to turn Alta House Event Center into a boutique space for various gatherings and celebrations. It was named for Dana’s grandmother, showing the respect the owners have for honoring their loved ones. The decor of the house is inspired by Dana and Curtis’s parents and grandparents, alongside their Iowa heritage. The main goal for this venue was to design a chic, intimate event space in a convenient location for everyone in the surrounding communities to enjoy. Alta House Event Center welcomes celebrations with up to 250 guests while maintaining an air of spaciousness. Dana and Curtis want to create as much joy as possible for you on your special day. This venue is available for weekend-long wedding events. Starting on Friday afternoon, you are granted access to the great room, upper deck, and the garden patio. A get-ready room in a private apartment is also available for the wedding party to use. The great room and patio are both available to hold your wedding events, depending on whether you have envisioned an indoor or outdoor wedding. The subtle water feature on the patio provides a gentle accompaniment to any ceremony held outside. The house and grounds are ideally appointed for memorable wedding photos, with plenty of trees and landscaping to enjoy.
