Oh my goodness, where do I even begin with Mr. and Mrs. Vitiritto’s stunning Des Moines October wedding? From the moment I met them, I just knew their day was going to be magical—and it absolutely was! Their fall wedding in October had the perfect mix of cozy vibes and elegance, with pops of blue that were SO dreamy! And can we talk about that bridal party dressed in black? Such a unique, chic touch! It was seriously such a joy to work with these two, and their love just radiated all day long. Check out all the dreamy details from this special day below!

Unforgettable Moments From This October Wedding

Cole and Madison’s journey to the altar had its share of adventure right from the start! During their engagement session in Des Moines, they brought along their dog and cat, but their cat decided to take off running in the park (yikes lol). We all searched for 45 minutes, and thankfully, they found him later that evening!

Fast forward to their October wedding day, and the heartfelt moments were just as memorable. Cole’s younger brother delivered the most touching speech, leaving everyone in tears and making their day even more special. He said, “There’s nothing like watching your big brother beat cancer when you’re only 5 years old.” The groom even told me right before speeches that he wasn’t sure what his dad or brother’s speech was going to be like because they’re not typically sentimental people. But the groom’s brother ended up making a lot of people cry with his :’) How sweet is that?!

Cole made it his mission to get everyone to have a blast on the dance floor and made a playlist of just a ton of their favorite songs so they could jam out! It was honestly one of the best dance floors I’ve seen in awhile. They just had the best time partying with their people! I had so much fun photographing this wedding and experiencing all the love these two have for their friends and family!
