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.

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
His forms for your likes,dislikes, and picks for the ceremony was very detailed and clear. I loved info dumping on them. I loved that we had a meeting a week out from the wedding discussing all the songs we wanted used and the timeline so we were all on the same page. On the wedding day, he got all the songs correct (which I was super nervous about cuz the music was SUPER important to me). And throughout our reception, he helped my husband and I stay on track with the timeline. He checked in often, which I appreciated Music wasn’t too loud during dinner which was great. And the fun lights he brought for the dance floor transformed the space. Would definitely choose him as our dj 1000 times over! Recommend for sure.

The Rebel Wedding Planner

  • Serves Venice, 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
From the very beginning, Victoria took the time to get to know us as a couple, what mattered most to us, and what we love about each other. She was committed to understanding the nuances of our vision for our big day and bringing it all to life. From selection of vendors to coordination of every detail, big and small, we felt calm, relaxed, and confident throughout the process under Victoria's guidance -- the whole experience was truly a joy. Our wedding day was as beautiful, special, and quite frankly perfect as we could have possibly imagined, and we owe much of that to Victoria. Victoria's job isn’t easy but she sure does make it look effortless. We owe every gratitude to Victoria for helping us to start our marriage together surrounded by nothing but joy.

All of our guests could not stop talking about what an amazing DJ Rachel was! She brought so much personality and fun to our event and helped make it truly special! In addition to keeping the dance floor PACKED for the whole night, Rachel acted as emcee and kept the night moving smoothly with announcements, reminders, and helpful information. She is extremely professional and helped us smooth out the details of the flow of the evening during our planning meeting a few weeks before. She thought of so many details we hadn't considered and came to us with a ton of great ideas! We especially loved an idea she gave us for getting photos with every table in a fun and quick way after dinner to keep the party moving! She worked hard to get a sense of our music taste and planned an excellent evening of dancing, and also great happy hour/dinner music that our guests loved. She got SO MANY compliments from guests and the venue coordinator, who said she'd never seen the dance floor so packed for so much of the evening. We could not have picked a better DJ--you will absolutely LOVE working with Rachel!

When we first met with Emily about photographing our wedding, we knew from the get go that she was going to be our choice. She was confident and direct in everything she told us and that's exactly what we wanted. We wanted someone that would take charge and keep us on track. Obviously we knew our wedding day was going to be busy and our goal was to stay on time and make sure everyone knew what they needed to do. She made our day so much fun and stress free!

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. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Emily. We had an engagement session with her, and my fiancé said afterward that he actually had fun taking photos. The engagement session made us feel more comfortable taking posed photos and working with Emily. Ahead of the wedding Emily had great communication with us and always answered my emails promptly. On the day of our wedding Emily and her second photographer, Rob, showed up ahead of schedule and kept us on schedule the whole day with photos. She was extremely organized with the family photos and got them completed so quickly. We went to multiple locations for couples’ photos, and she always made sure that we got the photos and poses that we wanted. Her upbeat and energetic personality really keeps everyone engaged and multiple of our guests commented on how great our photographers were. We cannot wait to see the photos from the wedding (we’ve already gotten a sneak peek!) and have absolutely no doubt that they will be wonderful. I have zero regrets for booking Emily and would recommend her to any future bride.

Rice + Co. Events was founded in March 2022 as Charley Rice Weddings with the vision of bringing intimacy and personality back into weddings. Charley was ordained by the American Marriage Ministries that same month and began performing ceremonies shortly after. In January of 2023, she began accepting coordination clients as well. Since then the business has grown almost entirely from word-of-mouth. Currently, Charley Rice Weddings offers three comprehensive officiating packages and two comprehensive coordination packages in addition to event rentals, honeymoon planning, and other add-ons.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm just gonna say it - I was in over my head when it came to planning our wedding by myself. Charley Rice Weddings quite literally saved the day, and more. They went thoroughly above and beyond my expectations. Charley communicated clearly with me on an organized, but not overwhelming timeline, she took over all vendor communication for me which was especially helpful, and her planning skills are second to none. Charley and her team provided a completely customized itinerary for my wedding day and rehearsal dinner. They helped bring my exact wedding vision to life, right down to the nitty-gritty details. She set up all of my decor exactly how I wanted it to be done, took it down at the end of the night, and arranged for an easy pick up later that week for the extra stuff we couldn't take home that night. 10/10 would get married again (just to work with Charley again!!!)

Lexi Harrington Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Venice, 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 Events

  • Serves Venice, IL

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!

I cannot speak highly enough of Red Oak Valley! My May wedding was unique and beautiful, and most importantly, it went off without a hitch. My guests are still discussing the yard games during the cocktail hour and the mini cows, Red and Oakly. I worked closely with Dana and Chrissy to plan my day, and they were meticulous in ensuring no detail was missed. The chef went above and beyond to provide guests with dietary restrictions, such as dairy-free, vegan, and gluten-free options, which was impressive. The entire team was helpful and kind, making our day magical. I highly recommend ROV to all our engaged friends. I wish I could give them more than a 5-star rating.

Preston’s video so perfectly captured our day - two years later, we still look back at it and tear up and remember all the magical details. We had to replay our wedding in four weeks during the thick of the pandemic and he brought a piece of calm and logic that we are grateful for. He also accommodated our tiny number of notes on the first draft beautifully. He was professional, kind, and an asset to the whole experience. Hire him!

I have been a wedding photographer since 2011 & love being a part of my couple's lives. I enjoy getting to know clients on a personal level so I can really document who they are as people & as a couple. I am one of those people who rarely meets a stranger & love becoming friends with new people wherever I go. On a personal level, I have the cutest mini Aussie who is my pride & joy! I am close with my family & have some of the most wonderful friends.

So, here’s the thing. I know that, as an engaged person looking for reviews on photographers, you’re looking for reviews from other engaged people. This isn’t that. BUT this is still just as important. I’m a wedding vendor (DJ), and this is why Brooke is one of my favorite photographers to work with. Having worked with Brooke on multiple occasions, I can tell you that her energy is top notch, and her enthusiasm is infectious. For a photographer, that’s so important, because it helps you relax behind the camera. Also, she knows how to coordinate this thing and run the show. This is so helpful to have more vendors knowing what’s up, so we can all efficiently operate independently. Lastly, the photos Brooke takes are incredible. I would say more, but you really should just go look at the gallery. All-in-all, work with Brooke. You won’t regret it!

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!

Courtney and Sam were incredible! From the moment we initially interacted with them at the “offwhite wedding” event they were incredibly personable and kind. We quickly became friends while we discussed our wedding and vision for the experience we were hoping to host and experience. They traveled all the way to Louisiana to capture our whole weekend of wedded bliss and fun! We were so pleased with the artistic and candid shots they captured of us and all our loved ones! I would whole heartedly recommend them without hesitation!

No need to rearrange the tables and chairs! The Groom’s Room has plenty of seating, a bathroom and is spacious. It also has a TV, shuffleboard and PlayStation to keep the guys occupied. The Bridal Suite is fabulous and beautiful in its own right. It is large, beautifully furnished, has a bathroom is and well lit and equipped for getting ready on your wedding day.

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
