Offering European charm from the Midwest, Pella Historical Museums is a unique wedding venue located in Pella, Iowa. About an hour’s drive from Des Moines, Pella was settled by Dutch immigrants in 1847. There, a replica of a Dutch square, a canal, and the country’s largest working grain windmill combine to make this town its own Little Holland.
