✦ 34th-floor wedding venue with floor-to-ceiling windows
✦ Unobstructed views in every direction across the city and beyond
✦ Elegant interiors with chandeliers, bar, and dance floor
The downtown Embassy Club sits on the 34th floor of the Ruan Center, making it the highest wedding venue in the city. From floor-to-ceiling windows, you get completely unobstructed views in every direction—miles of skyline, neighborhoods, farmland, and the horizon stretching far beyond the Capitol. For a Des Moines wedding, it doesn’t get more dramatic than being perched at the very top of a skyscraper with the entire city laid out beneath you.
Inside, the setting combines elegance with mid-century detail. Gleaming chandeliers, a polished bar, and a built-in dance floor create a space that feels timeless without being fussy. With full-service catering and staff support, the Embassy Club makes planning simple while delivering a wedding experience that feels elevated—both literally and figuratively—above anything else in Des Moines.
