Not just for “Cyclone” weddings

The Memorial Union at Iowa State University is a breathtaking venue space for anyone planning their special day — not just for alumni. Plenty of alums DO return to these hallowed halls to celebrate their most special occasions, always with their love stories of how it started during their time at ISU. But this venue is so much more than just a place for “Cyclone weddings.” 

The Memorial Union hosts high class and timeless events. Recently renovated, the spaces offer a blank canvas for all couples. No, your wedding colors do not have to be cardinal and gold! 

The wood detailing of the Great Hall is a must see. The space is stunning with its 26-foot ceilings, original exposed beams and chandeliers. Your guests can’t miss these details that give the space character and a classic aesthetic. 

See all the vendors we LUST for, that can help you with your big day!

History and tradition

Say your “I Do's” alongside the historical architecture of the Campanile on Central Campus. The arches provide the perfect backdrop for your photos, and a kiss under the Campanile is tradition, after all. 

While the attention to detail within the space is immaculate, the service and event team at the Memorial Union are second to none. There’s a reason the MU has been serving events for 90+ years! Between the full-service catering team, dedicated day-of wedding coordinator, and knowledgeable event staff, you and your guests are in for an unforgettable event experience.
