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.

Venue considerations

  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
We had our wedding/reception a the Franklin on 6/28/24 and we could not have asked for a better venue or staff. Everyone from the owners, Christina and Danny, to the coordinators, Emily, Cate, and Nichole, and the bar staff/catering staff/every single person we encountered, went above and beyond to make us feel like the only couple in the world throughout the entire process. The space is not only GORGEOUS (your wedding photos will be amazing) but the peace of mind and ease that booking at the Franklin leads to is priceless. Our guests are still raving about the food, drinks, and ambiance. If you’re considering the Franklin—you will not be disappointed. You will be completely taken care of throughout the entire planning process and you will not find a more supportive or flexible venue. I wish we could live our wedding day over and over and the main reason for how wonderful it was is the staff at the Franklin. Thank you to everyone there—we are forever grateful!

  • Serves Saint Jacob, IL

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids!​ At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, in 2021 I launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt provided his services for my husband and I this past weekend for our wedding, and we have nothing but good things to say! When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth. It was a huge hit at our wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Beau Son Strings (violin, cello, mandolin) to play at our interfaith wedding ceremony, and Emily and her colleagues helped create a beautiful, meaningful, true-to-us experience for us and our many guests. We were nervous because there were a lot of moving parts in the ceremony, but working with Beau Son Strings was the easiest part--they immediately understood our vision and made it come to life, including collaborating with other musicians (our friends). They were prompt, communicative, and can-do, and it was a pleasure working with them. We even had our hearts set on a very niche, challenging piece of music for our recessional and had resigned ourselves to just playing a recording, but Emily convinced us that Beau Son Strings could learn the complicated piece--and we are so glad we trusted them, because it turned out wonderfully live, and we received many compliments from guests who noticed the care that our musicians put into arranging and playing this special piece. I myself am a violinist and have a high bar for strings but would hands-down recommend this group. Thank you, Beau Son Strings!

The Rebel Wedding Planner

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.

If you're looking for a stress-free wedding day, I highly recommend hiring Victoria as your planner. Trust me, you'll thank me later. Victoria will handle all the behind-the-scenes work so you can relax and enjoy your special day without any worries. If there are any issues that arise, your guests will go to Victoria instead of you. My clients have always spoken highly of their experience with Victoria, and I'm confident you will too. Hiring her will make your life so much easier.

I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it.

My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Emily is seriously amazing! We had an instant connection of trust and I knew our photos would be perfect. She was there for me through my entire planning process and helped guide me on any changes we needed. For our engagement photos, it was pouring rain and she had a backup plan asap. She makes the photos feel natural and nothing forced. For our wedding day, it rained yet again and Emily took charge of our wedding day. She creates a timeline for you. She was like my day of coordinator too! She came prepared with everything and anything you need. She made sure the day flowed as smooth as possible. Our wedding wouldn’t have been what it was, without her! We love Emily!!

I cannot say enough good things about our DJ (Jon)! My now husband and I had some concerns regarding some of our family members and we discussed them with Jon prior to the event. Jon respected our wishes and was so professional about everything. He handled things extremely well. We had an issue with the pastor who married us. We had asked the pastor a week or two prior to the wedding if he would at least come by the reception hall to say the blessing at the wedding (He said yes at the time.), and he no-showed. Jon had announced that the pastor would come up and say the blessing, and of course there was radio silence because we quickly realized the pastor wasn’t there. Once we told Jon that he didn’t show up, Jon said a quick blessing and our meal began. We started the dances, and we could not keep people off of the dance floor. Jon kept pace with the crowd so well and everyone had such a blast! What my husband and I didn’t realize at the time was that my husband’s Uncle Joe had a surprise song picked out for us as well as green Irish polo shirts made for all of us (inside joke) and we essentially had a bit of a flash mob at our wedding. Kudos to Jon for going along with his idea! That was so funny and it made our wedding so special. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and I truly hope every couple is blessed with a DJ like Jon. I don’t think he could have done anything better honestly. You will not find a better DJ in the St. Louis / Metro East area! Thanks Jon!

Hey there! My name is Maggie, and I am the Owner + Lead Photographer at Desert Luna Photography! I am 24 years old, and just had MY dream wedding myself! We had a small destination wedding in Arizona! I have taken photos with a camera since I was 10 years old - and have even won a few awards for one of my photos! I love the outdoors, chicken strips, being a plant momma, and creating magic through my lens! I am currently on year 5 of taking photos professionally, and on year 3 of being known as Desert Luna Photography!

If you're looking for a photographer for engagement pictures, a wedding photographer, or a photographer for any other occasion - stop looking! My fiance and I were visiting friends in AZ shortly after our engagement and we booked Maggie for an engagement shoot at sunset while we were there. To say that we are are OBSESSED with our pictures is an understatement. Maggie was so knowledgeable about the lighting at that time of day and utilized the whole landscape to get great pictures with different backgrounds, not JUST different poses from us. We didn't stay in the same spot during the session as she continued to create new angles to adjust to as the sun continued to set. I felt comfortable asking "hey can we try this!?" and Maggie was more than willing to get excited with us about capturing the kind of picture we had in our mind. Maggie also gave us alot of direction on how to maybe tilt our head, or move a hand over a little bit, or recognized that the shot wasn't going to be great so she just scratched it and moved to the next idea. This was extra helpful to me because I didn't have to "guess how to model" and I appreciated that she made good use of her and our time. Maggie works quickly to get a variety of poses and landscapes, is willing to travel, and seems to genuinely love what she does. Her excitement and direction made it fun and exciting for us too! 10/10 for our experience with Maggie!

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!
