Awarded Best of Zola
There is no better DJ than DJ Martin. He had us fill out a questionnaire that helped guide us through planning our entire wedding day and ultimately the absolute BEST PARTY ever! I have never seen so many people on a dance floor as I did at our wedding reception. Instead of a head table, we put the DJ façade on the stage where the head tables would have been so that he was the center of attention. Ultimately, it was the best decision. He was able to be close to the dance floor, feel the crowd, and have a good time. He also listened to us on our music choices and guided us on things we were unsure of. We highly recommend Ultimate Beats Entertainment.

The Rebel Wedding Planner

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Dow, IL

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Awarded Best of Zola
As another vendor in the wedding industry, I can honestly say that Victoria is the créme de la créme of wedding planners. I always feel a peace of mind when working a wedding where Victoria is in charge. Not only is she intensely organized and efficient, but she is kind, professional, and absolutely unflappable. All the vendors know where to go, what to do, and we have incredible support when we're collaborating with The Rebel Wedding Planner.

I cannot say enough good things about Christy! She was the perfect mix of friendly and professional, and so easy to communicate with. I was anxious about finding the perfect MUA and unintentionally waited until the last minute to book someone. Christy reached out right away and was able to easily fit me into her schedule for both a makeup trial and for the day of my wedding. Her decades of experience are evident in her skill and knowledge of all things beauty. I felt like I did a terrible job explaining what exactly I wanted for my look, but Christy listened patiently, and thoroughly explained my options. The final look was even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined and I felt like I was glowing! My bridesmaids, some of whom are pretty picky, were just as impressed! And ontop of all that she provided me with a cute little gift bag that included makeup for touchups throughout the night. I feel like I got so lucky having Christy as my MUA for my big day. I highly recommend her and hope I get the pleasure of working with her again in the future!

As a wedding photographer, I work with tons of different vendors. Some of which, truly stand out - like Charley Rice. Charley and her team were phenomenal! They are so easy to work with, so welcoming, and SO detailed. My assistant and I were in awe of their photographer packet that was emailed prior to the wedding! It outlined the entire day for us perfectly. Sometimes, as a photographer, we are expected to lead the day and it can be a huge weight while trying to also document the day to the fullest extent. Having Charley and her team was like a breath of fresh air. I was able to talk through any hiccups with Charley and didn’t feel like the day was on my shoulders - her team wholeheartedly lead the entire day. If you are in the market for a wedding coordinator…. Look no further. Charley Rice is the best investment!

Lexi Harrington Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Dow, IL

It's true what they say — when you know, you know. Something as special as that innate instinct to love and be loved by your person is art in itself. Keep the star-crossed feeling close with artfully directed storytelling photography designed to honor your love / your story / your wedding in all its authentic beauty. Let's hike a trail, drink cocktails on the roof, dance in a crowded street, let's capture your love for everything that it is. Let's do it all and make it as unforgettable as the moment you say, "I do!"

My wedding was a little atypical, we planned the entire thing in less than two months, had a crowd of 30 family members present, and had EVERYONE take an hour car trip into the National Park for our ceremony. The photographer who would capture all our wonderful memories was by far the most important vendor to me, so Lexi was the first person I booked! And thank goodness I did because I couldn’t have picked a more wonderful person to handle the uniqueness of our celebration than her. Lexi dealt with one date change, two location changes, and much more as my husband and I went through the decision making process in our short timeline. Lexi handled it all flawlessly, and showed up ready to help make our day special even in the middle of her own pregnancy! She traveled from states away, and made the Indiana Jones-esque drive into the mountains, to go above and beyond to shoot for us. Not only that but she got our preview out in less than 24 hours from the close of our reception, lightning speed! She was so kind and helped us feel comfortable and natural for two people who have never taken professional photos before. I would recommend anyone to Lexi for their wedding/elopement!

Luna + Co is a St. Louis-based full-service event design and wedding coordination company dedicated to creating unforgettable moments for you! We combine creativity and organization with a collaborative approach to ensure your event is one of a kind. We specialize in weddings, but love to plan any and all of life's celebrations.

Hiring Luna Co was one of the best decisions we made in planning a 250-guest wedding in only six months! We knew we wanted to do a lot of the planning ourselves and were initially reluctant to use a professional planner/coordinator, but with Luna Co's partial planning option, we got the best of all worlds and an incredible value for the many services that Alexandra, Jazmin, and Sophia provided. The Luna Co team kept track of our vendor contracts, joined calls with vendors whenever we wanted them to, and helped keep us organized with regular check-ins throughout the planning process. They offered recommendations, advised us on logistical questions, and focused on what was most important to us. For example, we had 20 kids at our reception, and the Luna Co team helped us come up with a "kid zone" and coordinated with our caterer to make sure kids' meals were ready a little before the adults ate dinner. On our wedding weekend, Alexandra joined for our ceremony rehearsal, and I don't know what we would have done without her. We had an interfaith (Catholic Jewish) ceremony, so it was a little outside everyone's comfort zone and there was no real template to follow, but Alexandra took charge in the most kind yet firm way and made sure everyone knew what was happening and all of the items we needed were organized and stored safely. It honestly relieved so much stress that day knowing she would be on hand for the ceremony itself. And then on the day of the wedding, we were truly able to just be present and enjoy the moment with our loved ones, because the Luna Co team handled everything behind-the scenes. That included an impressive turnaround reception setup (since we couldn't access our reception venue until later in the day), troubleshooting various misplaced decor materials, and gracefully finding spots for two surprise (but wanted!) guests. Throughout the process, the team was prompt, responsive, and professional. They were easy and fun to work with. We know our large guest count and unique venue made our wedding logistically challenging, but the Luna Co team was always encouraging, positive, and found ways to make things possible. We would highly recommend Luna Co to anyone and everyone!

More than anything they enjoy the relationships they build with their wedding couples along the way. It's part of the reason why you see the hearts + souls of the people in their photographs. This is way more than a business to them, it's seeing inside the heart of their labor of love!

Jeremy & Melisa are TOP NOTCH. We highly, highly, highly recommend. Not only are our photos stunning (like seriously, we cannot stop looking at them) the customer service offered was incredible. They were easy to contact, quick to reply, readily accessible, incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Our wedding package included engagement photos, which were equally as beautiful. Finding a wedding photographer that we 'clicked with' was the most difficult part of wedding planning for me - until I had my first phone call with Jeremy. I instantly felt comfortable, like I was talking to a friend. I'm trying to figure out what other events we could get photographed so we can see them again, lol (but seriously). HIRE THIS COMPANY!

Heyo! I am a lady (she/her) that adores photography. I describe my style as eclectic classic. I absolutely cover the basics, but add in a lot of fun and creative shots too. I am based out of Central Southern Illinois, but I am willing to travel to any location.

The wedding lasts a day but your photos will capture all the love that day holds and will last a lifetime. I would only trust Sollie Photography to capture those special moments during such an important event. She is one of the best photographers by far and her calming presence is something you will need during such a crazy and hectic time. I truly am thankful she was there on my big day.

My husband and I hired Brooke to do our engagement and wedding/ reception pictures which turned out AMAZING. Brooke made us feel so comfortable and at ease taking pictures. Her pictures captured all our memories and with such attention to detail. We were so thrilled with how they all turned out. Brooke is so talented, we came back for a sunflower session. Which all of the photos came back beautiful as well. We have also hired Brooke to capture my mom and I’s poodles birthday session. Brooke is highly talented and can really shoot it all. Highly recommend Brooke for all picture needs. Thank you, Brooke!

Our wedding at the Forest Park Golf Club was absolutely outstanding! Lexi was stellar helping us when we first visited, learning about the different package options, and finding out that we could make the dream of having our wedding reception in Forest Park come true! Maddie did more than we could ever have hoped for as our coordinator, helping us with decorating ideas, arranging all of the details, and getting everything set up perfectly on the day of the reception. We made some additions the week of the wedding that the club accommodated seamlessly. They made everything as easy as it could have been. Our photographer was in an accident on the wedding day (oh no!) which pushed back the timing of the wedding. We arrived later than planned at the reception. Maddie was waiting outside with golf carts so we could immediately dash away for pictures at the Grand Basin- after she made a quick dash into the club to bring out some emergency finger nail tools! And the pictures around the Grand Basin: sunset reflecting on the water behind us… so beautiful! And the food! The drinks! The service! Everything was absolutely outstanding. Me and my bride never got our own drinks- the servers were frequently asking us for anything we would like. It truly exceeded the dreams we had of what our Forest Park wedding reception could be!

My name is Courtney and I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in the midwest of the United States and available for work worldwide. My inspirations and approach to my work are largely influenced by my studies in filmmaking, my deep appreciation for the nostalgic, my curiosity for nuance, and my strong personal relationship with love and friendship.

Awarded Best of Zola
Courtney is by far my favorite wedding photographer in the midwest region. She is the full package - low-key, relaxing to be around, friendly, and a brilliant creative genius. :) If you create the day, she is there to capture it in all of its glory: head down, behind the lens, sneaking all of those behind-the-scenes- moments you will hold dear. She is a skilled portrait photographer but doesn't forget the details. She is caring to her clients and fellow vendors. By the end of the day, you'll be asking for her number so you can go out for drinks next week. She is like the friend you've always known, yet she is able to keep her professionalism high all day. When you get your photos delivered... you'll know exactly what I mean! Hire her!!

If you’re here, you're probably in search of an idyllic indoor/outdoor venue to say “I Do” and dance the night away near St. Charles, St. Louis, or somewhere south of the city. You’re looking for something that feels close to home, with modern amenities and easy access to local hotels, but surrounded by the beauty of nature. You’ve likely pinned a few (hundred) photos for wedding inspiration and you’re searching for your ideal St. Louis wedding venue. Haue Valley is the venue you didn’t think you would find. The one that’s both awe-inspiring and affordable.

Haue Valley was incredible. They were highly communicative with us during the planning process. We took full advantage of their vendor open houses and decor open houses. Most of our decor came from the decor closet, and we had a beautiful wedding. Going into the wedding day, we were already fully in love with our Haue Valley experience. But then we had an amazing day-of team member, and she made us love Haue Valley even more. She was attentive, on top of things and a highly reassuring presence. We could not give her enough kudos for her performance on our wedding day. We have only RAVE reviews for Haue Valley and everyone we worked with.

Laumeier Sculpture Park

Saint Louis, MO
  • Venue
  • Up to 500 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Laumeier offers unique indoor and outdoor rental spaces set among the Park’s 105 acres and more than 70 large-scale sculptures. With a contemporary indoor art gallery, rustic outdoor space, historic stone buildings, and manicured flower beds, Laumeier has something for nearly every aesthetic. Photo opportunities are endless! Laumeier is perfect for ceremonies, receptions, showers, rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches, vow renewals, and more.

My wife and I cannot recommend Laumeier enough as an ideal wedding venue. We wanted somewhere that granted us the opportunity for an outdoor ceremony in a comfortable, beautiful and stimulating setting, while also having space for an indoor reception with outdoor elements (i.e. patio area, cocktail hour, fresh air mid-reception, etc.). Laumeier is exactly that. With our ceremony in the garden area in the front of the park, our guests enjoyed the shade provided by the trees and the open breeze to boot. They had a blast walking the grounds and admiring the sculptures before and after the ceremony. Being a special place for my now wife during her childhood, it was a true joy bringing things full circle at the park. Reception wise, the Aronson Center was absolutely ideal for our 105 person wedding. With the high ceilings and the huge windows, the space gives a feeling of airy openness, while remining an intimate space to share all of those precious ceremonial moments. The Aronson allowed plenty of personal space for each table as they enjoyed their dinner, drinks, desserts, and conversation, while leaving ample room for the dance floor that was utilized until the very end of the night. The cubby space in the entry way gave us the chance to decorate with many of our personal keepsakes that made the entire environment feel uniquely ours, and Laumeier granted us the autonomy to bring that vision to life as desired. And if the wonder and beauty of the park and Aronson were not enough, the people alone that helped make our wedding possible make this place worth your consideration. Sara Eaton and the folks who make up the rest of the events team are top notch humans. Sara was patient, kind, and clear throughout all communication in each phase of our wedding planning, and was onsite throughout their entire day of. Sara's presence is one that instills a sense of calm and confidence during a process that inevitably comes with nerves and some anxiousness. Marrying my wife would have been a joy anywhere, but I truly do not think the entirety of the day, nor the precious little moments that unfold during such a momentous occasion, would have been the same if not for Laumeier Sculpture Park, The Aronson Center, or Sara Eaton and the rest of the events team. We recommend this place to the absolute fullest extent. -Jimmie and Auri
